Review on Logitech K380 Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard for Mac - Off White: Multi-Device Convenience and Versatility by Carl Morgan

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Aside from my reverse delete (RIP Fn-Delete), this is a great little keyboard.

Logitech project managers, with their limitless ability to tinker with things that already work, have taken the Fn-Del key combination on the K380 and assigned it not to the standard Mac function (erase back), but to forward erase -Function that already exists, right there on the Delete key. When I contacted support to find out what happened to Fn-Delete, their very friendly tech explained that Fn-Delete is "Forward Delete on keyboards that don't have a Forward Delete key". Industrial fair. It makes sense. But the K380 has a Forward Delete button. Again, this is the Delete key. It is completely incomprehensible why Logitech did that with the K380. It seems that the PM of this keyboard fell asleep behind the scroll wheel. So where did they remap the reverse delete keyboard shortcut? Ctrl-D In this case, the letter "D” stands for Dummies. Fn-Delete aside, this is a great little BT keyboard. My 2012 MB Pro is having connection issues. But the connection with my M1 Mini is reliable.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Unreliable
