Everything is fine, there are only minor drawbacks.

I'm still not acclimated to the location of the fn button after using Apple keyboards, and the keyboard is just as slow to wake up from sleep as the Apple Magic Keyboard. The buttons' spherical form causes no discomfort;

In the category of flat compact keyboards, I have not yet found a superb keyboard. Only three different versions are available. Please, Logitech, provide a version of the Keys without the side buttons (update: the MX Keys Mini was created, and it's awesome).

Pros

Among the flat, compact keyboards I've tried (Apple Wireless Keyboard, Apple Magic Keyboard, BK 3001 from aliexpress, and the keyboard on my MacBook Pro 2022), this one has the quietest and most pleasant typing sound; - Full compatibility with the default Mac keyboard. However, you won't have as many options until you download the Logi Options software. Battery life is excellent (I've never had to replace it); printing is smooth, with no double or missed clicks;

Cons

If you hit the spacebar in a particular sequence (Cmd+spacebar), the other auxiliary keys (Shift, Control, Alt, etc.) will make a creaking sound. The keys stopped squeaking after a few months of use, but they are still noisier than the letter keys. Fingers don't feel as at home on the keyboard as the ears do. The keyboard on my 2022 MacBook Pro remains the best I've ever used in terms of feel; - The Fn + up/down arrow key combinations adjust the screen's brightness if Logi Options is installed, but they do not produce Page Up/Down. Since I use a keyboard and a separate screen, I find that I don't need it at all. I contacted Logitech support with this scenario, suggesting they add a setting to Logi Options to make this button combination scroll the contents, but they just gave me nonsensical responses like "reinstall Logi Options and try again"; - It's painful to get one's fingers into the battery compartment. Feels and appears inexpensive
