Review on Logitech MX Keys Wireless Keyboard Black, English by Janis Berzins ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good value for money, I recommend it.

The following are some of the product's advantages: high-quality materials and construction, a simple and compact design, solid stability when placed on a table, a comfortable weight, superior performance when connected to a device via Bluetooth, pleasant software and the ability to customize the keyboard's function keys, and USB Type-C charging. This last feature may seem like a trivial benefit, but it's nice when all of the electronic devices on your desk can be powered by a single cable. Its cons: 1. For reasons that are completely unclear, the size of the left Shift key has been shrunk to the point where it is intolerable. This was done in order to add one more button to its region, which would have symbols that are already present on the keyboard but in a different configuration. This is not at all reasonable, and it is not a solution that is ergonomic. When printing and working with the same version of Excel at all times, the left font is the one that is utilized. You are so accustomed to missing and clicking on the symbols that it has become a habit. At the same time, this ingenious concept is only put into practice in the device's Russian variant. If you look at the version that does not use Cyrillic script, you will see that it is constructed with two full-sized Shifts on the left and right sides. It is important to note that even the Start and Fn buttons are significantly bigger than the left Shift button. Which of these is utilized more frequently? I believe that the response is readily apparent. This is a significant drawback that undermines the overall impression created by the device's ergonomic design. 2. The backlight on the keyboard only activates in response to movement; if the user's hands remain motionless over it for more than a few seconds, the backlight will turn off. Therefore, if you are sitting still while waiting for a task to finish running on the computer or are simply thinking while you are typing, you will need to move your hands in order to turn on the dimmed lighting. If someone from Logitech happens to be reading this, I'm confident that this issue can be resolved as soon as possible. It would be helpful if there was a way to turn on the backlight permanently, independent of how the screen was being moved.
