Review on Logitech MX Keys Wireless Keyboard Black, English by Adam Kotowski ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A reliable product for all occasions, the quality is at the level.

I use it in combination with MX Keys 3. I only say this because additional Fn actions are available with the mouse, such as alternate mouse actions and gestures. There is no height adjustment, i. E. the keyboard is always at the same slope, but for me this is not a problem, the angle suits me. Pros below: Pleasant to the touch keys. I don't know what they are made of, but they are really nice to feel. The keyboard itself is quite heavy, does not slide on the table. Made well and strong. Ability to work with three computers with fast switching. I don't know about three, but the ability to switch between two was very useful to me. Particularly useful is copying from one PC to another. Sontrol-S on one PC, I switch, Sontrol-V. Ready. Very helpful. Pleasant backlighting, which may not be necessary, but does not interfere, and helps to find rarely used keys in the dark. Convenient software for customizing the keyboard. You can customize the keys for the entire system as a whole, and remap the keys for specific applications. The list of actions, however, is limited to those provided by the developers, so it is impossible to set, relatively speaking, any macro for a random application. Cons below: The most important thing is the short left shift. I don't know who would benefit from an extra key at this place, all promotional materials do not have this key, but have a long shift, but a keyboard with a short shift is being produced. All F1-F12 keys have the same spacing, i. E. there is no increased spacing between Esc and F1, F4 and F5, etc. To be honest, this solution is confusing, because I'm used to finding keys purely by tactile sensations when I want to e. G. refresh the page. Big Esc is cool, but sometimes you poke it instead of F1. Backlight. The spacebar is only highlighted at both ends, not all over the key, so it looks rather odd. Sometimes, after a pause in use, the backlight does not turn on, in fact, its brightness goes to 0 on its own, you have to turn it back on. Many describe the problem that the keyboard itself starts to turn on the backlight 2 seconds after turning it off, and so on in a circle. I also had this, but after cleaning the keys from the smallest particles of dust, the problem disappeared. I don't know if this is considered a drawback, but the keyboard is very sensitive in this matter. The absence of a shortcut menu key. Sometimes you want to call it without touching the mouse, but fig. The previous point would not be a problem if you could set any action on any key. But no. You can only change the actions of 17 additional keys in the top row (F1-F12 + in fact, F13 + block F14-F17, although they are not signed as F).
