Review on Game Keyboard Logitech Wireless Keyboard K350 Black USB by Chun Hee Kim ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

- First of all, I clarify that I am a happy owner of an "American": I do not have Cyrillic characters on the keys. She deliberately did not want to contact the Russified one because of the non-standardly located "|\" key. The Enter key is really small and not as noticeable against the background of others as we would like. But still increasing it by moving the slash is not the best idea. So I'm very happy that I chose "American". At first I wanted to localize it with stickers, but it turned out to be more difficult to find them than it seems - they didn’t turn up in any stores. But while I was looking, I noticed that I can manage just fine without them. :) - Some keys are placed in the keyboard in a non-standard way. There is no context menu button, which is usually located just to the right of the space bar, instead it is proposed to use Fn + Print_Screen. I don't know if this is a plus or a minus. It might actually be more comfortable if you get used to it. But if, after getting used to it, you then sit down at a regular keyboard, you will always have to watch where you press. - A dubious decision to place a power off button on the keyboard, to which, moreover, only a few actions can be assigned. At first I considered it completely useless and turned it off, but then I still found a use. - I got used to the keyboard quickly, it is very convenient. I used to have an M$ Natural Ergonomic 4000 - it's a good keyboard, but the Logiteck K350 is better. I have not tried it in games, but for printing it is a great thing. To type something on it is a real pleasure.

Pros
  • - Comfortable, good material, pleasant sound of the keys, comfortable receiver, almost not protruding from the laptop, balanced. Just what you would expect from an ergonomic keyboard. - I liked the somewhat non-standard shape of the Caps_Lock and Num_Lock keys.
Cons
  • - Some functions are not available under Windows 8. In particular, the "Application Switcher" does not function. I checked under Windows XP and W7 - there are no problems. - Even under XP and W7, not all buttons are configured. And it is impossible to program a certain sequence of pressings on a hot key. It remains only to find a third-party program, for example, MKey. - If I install the Logitech software (called SetPoint), then the player control buttons stop interacting with my AIMP player. If SetPoint is disabled, then they interact, but in this case you lose the ability to program additional keyboard keys. It is also impossible to bind keys to the player's functions using the player itself. the player "does not see" the corresponding keys (it was checked both in W8 and W7). - I don't like how the "Application Switcher" button is pressed (lower left), I hope that it will be developed over time. - I would still like a few more extra keys. - There is no storage compartment for the USB receiver in the case, so when carrying it, it can easily get lost.
