The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 is a compact, low-profile keyboard designed for portability and use with mobile devices and tablets. This keyboard continues Logitech's Keys-To-Go lineup and introduces several changes over the original Logitech Keys-To-Go. Notably, while the original had a fairly stiff rubber coating over the top of the keyboard, this new version has an attached cover that flips out of the way onto the underside of the keyboard to act as a base. It also uses replaceable coin cell batteries, which Logitech advertises to provide a maximum battery life of up to three years, assuming two hours of daily use.

Our Verdict

0.0
Gaming 

The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 is inadequate for gaming and wasn't designed for this purpose. It has mediocre build quality, a fairly cramped layout with tightly spaced keys, and poor overall raw performance that's only suitable for playing casual titles.

Pros
  • Latency performance is only passable for playing casual titles.
Cons
  • No backlighting.
  • Mediocre build quality.
  • Latency performance is much too high and inconsistent for any competitive gaming.
0.0
Office 

The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 is a satisfactory office keyboard. It connects wirelessly via Bluetooth and supports multi-device pairing with up to three devices simultaneously. It's also fully compatible with all major operating systems. Unfortunately, its build quality is only mediocre. It has relatively cheap-feeling ABS keycaps with printed legends that can rub off after prolonged use. It also has a flip-out cover that doubles as a base when flipped onto the underside. Unfortunately, this cover is easily damaged. It also has underwhelming typing quality due to the very tightly spaced keys, making typing feel cramped.

Pros
  • Connects via Bluetooth and supports multi-device pairing.
Cons
  • Mediocre build quality.
  • Typing feels cramped; keys are very closely spaced.
0.0
Mobile/Tablet 

The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 is an outstanding keyboard for mobile and tablet use. It connects wirelessly via Bluetooth and supports multi-device pairing with up to three devices simultaneously. It's also fully compatible with all major mobile and tablet operating systems (although there's a separate variant that's only compatible with Apple devices). Lastly, it's very compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry or toss into bags. That said, its compact size means typing feels cramped. Unfortunately, the overall build quality is also mediocre. Its flip-out cover is easily damaged, and its relatively cheap ABS keycaps have printed legends that are more prone to rubbing off from heavy use.

Pros
  • Very compact, lightweight design makes it extremely portable.
  • Fully compatible with all major computer and mobile/tablet operating systems.
  • Connects via Bluetooth and supports multi-device pairing.
Cons
  • Mediocre build quality.
  • Typing feels cramped; keys are very closely spaced.
0.0
Programming 

The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 is decent for programming but has mediocre build quality, a fragile flip-out cover, and relatively cheap-feeling ABS keycaps. Unfortunately, its compact design means it lacks a navigation cluster with Print Screen or Break keys, which are important for some programming workflows. Furthermore, while it has a function row, most of its keys are bound to hotkeys for screen brightness, media controls, and other shortcut commands by default. Some function row keys are also dedicated to multi-device switching and can't be customized. You can only program simple macros to some keys on the function row and no other keys on the keyboard. On the bright side, it connects wirelessly via Bluetooth and supports multi-device pairing.

Pros
  • Connects via Bluetooth and supports multi-device pairing.
Cons
  • Mediocre build quality.
  • Typing feels cramped; keys are very closely spaced.
0.0
Entertainment / HTPC 

The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 is a sub-par choice for an entertainment or home theater PC setup. On the one hand, it's very lightweight and has a compact design that makes it easy to use from a couch. It also connects wirelessly via Bluetooth and supports multi-device pairing. It lacks backlighting, so you can't see the legends in a dark room. Unfortunately, it also lacks a dedicated set of media keys (although the function row keys have default media key assignments out of the box).

Pros
  • Connects via Bluetooth and supports multi-device pairing.
Cons
  • No backlighting.
  • Mediocre build quality.
  • No dedicated media keys.
0.0
Raw Performance 

The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 offers disappointing raw performance. It has a very low polling rate owing to its Bluetooth-only connectivity, and it barely supports 6-key rollover with no option for enabling NKRO. It also has mediocre and very inconsistent single-key and multi-key latency, so it's only suitable for playing casual games.

Pros
None
Cons
  • Latency performance is much too high and inconsistent for any competitive gaming.
  • Extremely low polling rate.

    Differences Between Sizes And Variants

    The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 is available in Graphite, Pale Gray, and Lilac color options. This keyboard is available in a standard "universal" variant and an iPad or "Apple-specific" variant.

    The universal variant is compatible with all major operating systems, and its keyboard legends have both Windows and Mac-specific labels. The Apple variant only has Mac-specific labels and is only compatible with iPadOS/iOS and MacOS devices. We bought and tested the Universal variant and the Lilac option. You can see the label for our unit here.

    Popular Keyboard Comparisons

    The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 continues Logitech's portability-focused Keys-To-Go lineup. It uses replaceable coin cell batteries in contrast to its predecessor, which recharges via a micro-USB cable. This new version also adds a thin flip-out cover. Unfortunately, this cover isn't very robust, and we ripped the corner during testing. As such, we don't expect it to hold up very well if you plan on carrying this keyboard out daily and tossing it into bags. Unfortunately, in addition to the build quality issues, this keyboard has several other small disappointments that seem somewhat at odds with the sustainability goals highlighted in the marketing material, like putting the batteries behind a panel held with T5 screws or using comparatively cheaper ABS plastic with printed legends which are much more prone to rub off and develop a shiny texture compared to dye sublimated PBT.

    Altogether, this keyboard is a decent match for mobile devices or tablets. It's very small and lightweight but best for around-the-house use as its overall build quality is underwhelming. That said, If you don't mind giving up on the flip-out cover and don't mind a slightly larger footprint, there are significantly cheaper options in Logitech's portfolio that are also more robust and have nearly identical feature sets, like the Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s or the Logitech K480. If you're willing to sacrifice a bit more portability and don't mind paying a bit more for a compact mechanical keyboard with dramatically better build and typing quality, you may want to check out the NuPhy Air75 V2 instead.

    Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s

    Track

    Logitech Keys-To-Go

    Track

    The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 is an updated version of the Logitech Keys-To-Go. The original Keys-To-Go model includes a small stand for propping up mobile devices, which the new version lacks. The original also has a rubberized coating on the top of the keyboard and the keys, while the new model doesn't. Instead, the Keys-To-Go 2 has a flip-out cover that can help protect the typing surface when you're not using it. The Keys-To-Go 2 also offers a better typing experience with more lightweight keystrokes. Lastly, the newer model uses coin cell batteries, while the original used a micro-USB cable to recharge.

    Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro (M4)

    Track

    The Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 and the Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro (M4) are low-profile keyboards with folio covers. The Logitech is a standalone, wireless model powered with coin cell batteries that's compatible with all major computer and mobile operating systems, including all current versions of iPad. On the other hand, Apple is exclusively compatible with iPad (M4) models. It also has a trackpad, backlighting, and a hinge that acts as a stand for your iPad. It doesn't connect wirelessly but connects with Smart Connector pins, using your iPad for power.
