Our Verdict

Logitech Keys-To-Go

Logitech Keys-To-Go 2

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.
