Logitech MX Keys Keyboard Review

The Logitech MX Keys Mini is a similar but more compact version of the full-size Logitech MX Keys. The MX Keys has a numpad and navigation keys which the smaller version lacks. Also, it comes with Logitech's unifying receiver, which you can use to connect with multiple Logitech devices. Comparatively, the Mini isn't compatible with the unifying receiver, and while it's compatible with the Logi Bolt USB receiver, you need to buy it separately. Also, the Mini includes some new function keys, like a dictation key, a mic mute key, and an emoji key, but some don't work on certain operating systems.

The Logitech MX Keys is a much better overall keyboard than the Logitech K380. The MX Keys has a better build quality, better typing experience, and has white backlighting. The K380 is smaller and lighter so it's much easier to carry around and, like the MX Keys, has multi-device pairing with up to three devices via Bluetooth. The MX Keys is more suited for in-office use while the K380 is designed to be used on-the-go.

The Logitech ERGO K860 and the Logitech MX Keys are very different. The K860 is a split keyboard that includes a fixed wrist rest, while the MX Keys has a straight board design. Both keyboards have wireless connectivity and multi-device pairing, but only the MX Keys has backlighting. They both provide a great typing experience; however, the K860's keys require a bit more force to actuate, and it might take longer to get used to its split layout.

The Logitech MX Keys is a better keyboard than the Logitech K780 overall. It features backlighting, which is nice and is rechargeable instead of using batteries like the K780. Both use very similar switches, but the MX Keys' keycaps feel a bit better, and the keys are easier to actuate.

The Logitech MX Keys is a more versatile keyboard than the Apple Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad. The Logitech has multi-device pairing with up to three devices at once, and it has white backlighting, both of which the Apple doesn't have. The Logitech also has dedicated software to reprogram a few function keys, and it works fully on Windows and macOS. However, the Apple keyboard is meant for Mac computers and it has a Touch ID button, which the Logitech doesn't have.

The Logitech MX Keys is significantly better than the Microsoft Surface Keyboard. The Logitech has better wireless versatility, as it can be paired using an USB receiver or through Bluetooth, and it can be paired to three devices simultaneously. The Logitech also has programmable keys and can be customized using Logitech's Options software, however, the Microsoft's build quality is much better.

The Apple Magic Keyboard 2017 and the Logitech MX Keys are both good, low-profile, wireless office keyboards. The Logitech has a multi-device pairing feature, while the Apple can only connect to one device at a time. The Logitech also has backlighting and software for customization. The Apple feels sturdier, but the typing quality also feels better on the Logitech as the Apple requires a bit more force to operate the keys. The Apple is a compact 75% model, but there's also a full-sized model available. On the other hand, the Logitech is full-sized, but there's also a compact 75% model, the Logitech MX Keys Mini.

The Logitech MX Keys is better for office use than the Logitech K845. The MX Keys' scissor switches on our unit are much quieter than the Cherry MX Blues on our K845 unit, so it shouldn't be loud in an open office. Also, it's wireless and has a multi-device pairing feature, has a lower profile, and it's fully compatible with both macOS and Windows. However, the K845 has a higher pre-travel distance, which should help prevent typos.

The Logitech MX Keys and the Keychron K3 (Version 2) are both wireless keyboards designed for productivity use. The Keychron is mechanical, and you can select from a wide array of low-profile switches to use in the board or opt for the hot-swappable variant to put in your own. Also, the Keychron is a compact 75% size, and it has two incline settings for better ergonomics. On the other hand, the Logitech is a full-size board that uses scissor switches that provide a lighter typing experience. It also comes with companion software, meaning you can remap buttons.

The Logitech MX Keys and the Logitech K585 are low-profile, wireless keyboards with full-size form factors. The MX Keys feels sturdier and provides better typing quality as its keyboard has more spacing between keys. It also supports multi-device pairing for up to three devices and has white backlighting. On the other hand, the K585 is somewhat more compact and portable and has a tray on the top of the keyboard for propping up phones and small tablets. However, it only supports multi-device pairing with two devices simultaneously and doesn't have backlighting.

The Logitech MX Keys is a better wireless keyboard than the Logitech K800. It's better-built, can be used over Bluetooth with three devices simultaneously, offers better backlighting, and has a noticeably better typing quality. If your budget allows it, the MX Keys is better in almost every category.

For most uses, the Logitech MX Keys is better than the Keychron K4. Both are wireless keyboards, and both have a multi-device pairing feature for multitasking. Although both feel great to type on, they provide very different typing experiences since the Logitech is a low-profile keyboard with scissor switches, and the Keychron is a mechanical keyboard with a fairly high profile. The Logitech has software support, which the Keychron doesn't have, and it produces less typing noise, which is better for quiet offices.

The Logitech MX Keys and the Razer Pro Type Ultra are both wireless office boards, but they use different switch types. The Logitech has typical scissor switches, which provide tactile feedback when you actuate a key. On the other hand, the Razer comes with Razer Yellow switches, which are linear and don't provide feedback. Also, its backlighting is brighter. If you're looking for a board you can also occasionally game with, the Razer has much lower latency.

The Logitech MX Keys is a full-size board, while the Logitech POP Keys is a compact 75% board. If you want a thin board with a numpad, home cluster keys, and scissor switches, you'll prefer the MX Keys. Also, it has a built-in, rechargeable battery, unlike the POP Keys that uses two AAA batteries. On the other hand, if you're looking for a brightly-colored, compact 75% board with dedicated emoji keys, the POP Keys is a better choice. Also, it uses tactile TTC Brown switches, which are mechanical. Unfortunately, the rounded keys don't provide the best typing experience.

The Logitech MX Keys is a better keyboard than the Logitech K400 Plus. The MX Keys has a rechargeable battery and can pair with up to three devices at once via Bluetooth, unlike the K400 Plus that uses AA batteries and doesn't support Bluetooth. The MX Keys also has a built-in brightness sensor that will turn on backlighting to help you type even in darker rooms. However, the MX Keys has a Numpad instead of a trackpad, so you would need to have an accompanying mouse if you wanted to use it with a home theater setup.

The Logitech MX Keys and the Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad 2021 are keyboards with low profiles; however, they're for different uses. The Apple is a folio board meant to be used with the iPad Pro and iPad Air only, so it isn't compatible with any operating system except for iPadOS. Also, it doesn't have a USB receiver, Bluetooth, or a cable, so it can't pair with any other devices since it only uses the Smart Connector to connect to the iPad. On the other hand, the Logitech is for office use, so it has a USB receiver, Bluetooth, and can pair with up to three devices at once. It's much larger with a function row and a Numpad, and it's compatible with many operating systems.

The Logitech MX Keys and the Keychron K10 are different types of office keyboards. Typing is great on both, but choosing one over the other depends if you prefer mechanical or non-mechanical keyboards. The K10 is mechanical and available with three types of mechanical switches, so you can get the ones you like, and it has full RGB backlighting. The Logitech is a non-mechanical option with scissor switches, and it has white backlighting. They each have Bluetooth support with up to three devices at once, but the Logitech also has a proprietary receiver. The Logitech has more customization options, too, as you can reprogram some function keys.

The Logitech MX Keys is better than the Microsoft Bluetooth Keyboard. It feels more high-end, has white backlighting, offers a better overall typing quality, and can be connected to up to three devices simultaneously. However, if you don't like scissor switches and prefer a bit longer travel distance, go with the Microsoft and its rubber dome switches.

The Logitech MX Keys is a better keyboard than the Logitech K350. It feels noticeably higher-end, can connect up to three devices simultaneously, and can also be used with mobile devices via Bluetooth. Its chiclet keys have a very short pre-travel distance and each key is individually lit. The typing quality is much better on the MX Keys, but some people might like the ergonomic board design of the K350 better.

The Logitech MX Keys and the Keychron K14 are good wireless office keyboards. The Logitech is a low-profile, full-sized keyboard. It doesn't have any incline settings or an included wrist rest, but it has better ergonomics due to its low-profile, making it comfortable to type on for long periods. It has scissor switches with a tactile bump that requires a bit of force to get over, but they also feel very responsive thanks to a very low travel distance. It also has slightly lower latency, though neither board is very well-suited for gaming. On the other hand, the Keychron is a compact 70% keyboard available in a range of Gateron G Pro or Keychron Mechanical switches.

The Logitech MX Keys is a better keyboard than the AmazonBasics K4R. The Logitech is noticeably better built, offers a better typing experience, and has backlighting. It also connects to devices via Bluetooth, so it's a bit more versatile than the AmazonBasics as well. The only thing better with the AmazonBasics is the fact that it has an integrated touchpad.

The Logitech MX Keys is a better wireless keyboard than the Logitech K360. The MX Keys feels better built, has Bluetooth support, and has white backlighting. On the other hand, the K360 has equally comfortable ergonomics and is available at a much lower price.

The Logitech MX Keys and the Das Keyboard 4 Professional are very different keyboards. The Logitech is a wireless keyboard, which means it can be used with mobile devices, and you won't have a cable running from the TV to the couch in a home theater PC setup. It has backlighting, multi-device pairing, and it provides a better and quieter typing experience. The Das Keyboard has dedicated media keys and USB passthroughs, which the Logitech lacks. Neither keyboards are recommended for fast-paced gaming as they both have relatively high latency.

Overall, the Razer Pro Type is much better than the Logitech MX Keys. They're both designed with productivity in mind and share similar features like wireless connectivity, multi-device pairing, and a full-size layout with backlit keys. However, the Razer is a mechanical keyboard with Razer Orange switches and provides a different typing experience than the scissor switches on the Logitech. The Logitech has better compatibility with various operating systems, but the Razer is more customizable because every key is programmable.

The Logitech MX Keys is a better office keyboard than the Keychron K1. The Logitech has scissor switches that provide a better typing experience, but the keys do require a bit more force to actuate than the Keychron. Also, it uses the Logitech Options companion software and is fully compatible with macOS and Windows. That said, the Keychron has full RGB backlighting, whereas the Logitech has white backlighting.
