Review on Enhanced Typing Experience: Logitech MK235 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo by Bogdan Mironow ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not particularly happy with it, but it's mostly okay.

If you take away all the drawbacks of the difficult-to-use keys, the keyboard is actually quite nice and worth the money. I don't see why they duplicated to decrease Shift. As a programmer, I use Shift a lot more frequently than I do extremely infrequently. I've been using the keyboard at night for three months, and throughout that time I've never been confronted with the reality that I type loudly because the keyboard is so quiet and my desktop is set up just a meter from my brother's bed. But these shoddy-printed keys ruin everything. At the same time, printing is very challenging because you have to continually retain all these keys in your head and your fingers become fatigued from tapping on them. Since it serves its purpose, they obviously won't accept it back under warranty, but you can get through with whatever pressure you need to, and no one seems to mind. However, I'll puff up my little finger and produce a large "Skibydysch" like Wuxi in "Kung Fu Panda."

Pros
  • - In terms of design, this model dives right into the gas when compared to competitors on the counter. - The keystrokes were pleasant, soft, and quiet; they were devoid of clicks and had a little stroke, almost like the laptop I usually use (thus why I took it). - Small mouse that fits both left and right hands - The mouse is sturdy, but the keyboard's plastic construction is not the best. - I appreciated the intelligent arrangement of the function keys on F1 through F12 (accessed via the Fn key), as well as the Fn key itself. Large enough to avoid missing. Someone in the reviews criticized there being only one Fn, however I have a Win on the left side to launch many apps. - Non-erasable paint will last for what seems like an eternity (I have the same in an indelible 7-year-old laptop, or so it seems to me). - There are no these stupid light bulbs that run out at night.
Cons
  • - A month later, "A / F", "K / L", and Alt started to print erratically; you need to cash in with enormous power, therefore I'd advise pushing through. When the others make delicate movements, this beast becomes even more dangerous, and these require special care. This is a huge disadvantage in my opinion. They allegedly made savings on frivolous items. When you create a helicopter, the keyboard makes a small groan. Although there is space for them, the back legs lack elastic bands, which causes it to slip on the table because the bottom elastic bands of the table virtually do not touch. - Extended keys on keyboards as opposed to regular keyboards: a contentious choice. Since ordinary keyboards include space between the keys, it took me approximately two months to become acclimated to point input. You only contact this key when you push the targeted key's edge; you do not touch the one next to it. - Shift is relatively small since the "" key is duplicated. I frequently click on it rather than "I" because of the duplicated on. Why it was replicated baffles me. I could reach slightly more than two-thirds of the keyboard on the previous keyboard while holding Shift, but only half on this one. The keyboard itself is quiet, yet the mouse clicks are twice as loud. This may be a drawback to some, but I don't think about it at all.
