Our Verdict

Apple Magic Keyboard 2017

Logitech MX Keys Mini

The Logitech MX Keys Mini and the Apple Magic Keyboard 2017 are both compact, low-profile, wireless keyboards. The Logitech has a few more features, like white backlighting, multi-device pairing via Bluetooth, and customization software to remap some keys. Also, the Logitech is compatible with more operating systems, including Android, which the Apple keyboard isn't compatible with at all. On the other hand, the Apple keyboard is fully compatible with macOS, iPadOS, and iOS since it's made for Apple products. Also, you can use its cable for both charging and wired mode, while the Logitech is a wireless-only board, and you can only use the cable to charge the battery.
