Bad product, not worth the money.

If I hadn’t flooded my k740, I wouldn’t even look for a replacement for it, I was happy with everyone.
This keyboard has only the appearance of pluses.
Absolutely not worth your money. But it could have been a great product if not for the laziness, haste and greed of Logitech.

PS There is also a little hell of a perfectionist - uneven gaps under the keys and, as a result, uneven illumination (I tried to show the D and R keys for example in the photo). Such things, I think, are bought by people with an above average level of aesthetics and want to enjoy using the device, and not sit with a twitching eye due to glitches and curvature. Build quality is low.

PSS rattles a lot when pressed, it is extremely uncomfortable to work. I think this is due to a stupid design, which results in an empty space under the keyboard, which creates a rumble from pressing the keys and micro-vibration on the table surface. This moment was apparently taken into account when they created the Apple Magic keyboard. I took a photo for comparison and understanding what it is about, in the first photo of the k740, in which the back of the whole plane lies on the table and only the sound of pressing the keys is heard during operation.

PSSS is a disgusting product. Logitech options does not install on any of the three PCs with freshly installed Windows 10 (different releases). The keyboard constantly flashes backlight, every 5 seconds, without software, the fn-keys work with glitches. the keyboard apparently loses the driver and because of this, most likely, the backlight flashes. And this is the second instance. And he is again slightly arched in the center, the quality is rotten.
Here, people who write good reviews either do not pay attention to a bunch of bugs and overall quality, or, obviously, these are paid reviews.
Absolutely not worth your money. And the main reason is the disgusting software from the manufacturer, in other matters, as always with Logitech.
Too bad there are no alternatives.

PSSSS the manufacturer also does not recognize the deformation of the case as a defect (see technical support answer). This speaks volumes.

PSSSSS ated software to 8.34.82, software problems are gone.

Pros

Appearance Backlight

Cons

The keyboard on the wire does not work! Manufacturer's TP confirmed. No, of course it works while it is charging, but it does not work over the wire in the usual sense until the OS is loaded (for example, you won’t enter the BIOS)! (see tech support answer) The price is very high, the maximum should cost 4000-5000r. Lots of glitches under Win10 LTSC anyway. For example, you click on "calculator" or "screenshot" and nothing happens, and after a while - from a dozen calculators, a screenshot opens. And so with all Fn functions. This is very annoying (it won’t work - I’ll hand it over to the store). Looks like another driver glitch. TP is silent. Logitech refuses again and again to make normal software. Software is not installed on Win10. TP is silent. Additional keys for MacOS. It would be possible at such a cost to make separate versions for Win and Mac. The backlight along the contour unpleasantly shines into the eyes at the slightest deviation from the vertical - a very annoying fact, on the k740 the backlight is much better, more cultured. Quite noisy, but not the keys (there are no complaints about them), but by itself, when typing, it feels weighty, as it were, on the table surface (apparently due to the design in the form of an arch). k740 works much nicer. There are no separate volume keys. You can increase the volume, but to decrease it, you need to do it through Fn . Is it really so difficult to make another button, or do I have to buy Craft for this? DOES NOT REMEMBER THE BACKLIGHT SETTINGS AFTER REBOOT! those. after rebooting or waking up from sleep mode, the backlight does not work, you have to force it on! No NUM LOCK indicator. No comments for backlit keyboard. Poor workmanship. The case is slightly arched and two rubber bands in the center do not touch the table, which is why it rattles a lot during operation.
