Our Verdict

Logitech MX Keys Mini

Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s

The Logitech MX Keys Mini and the Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s are wireless low-profile keyboards. The MX Keys Mini has better, more premium-feeling build quality and is a bit larger. It has more conventional rectangular-shaped keycaps and provides a slightly better overall typing quality. It recharges with an included USB cable and has white backlighting, which the Pebble Keys 2 lacks. On the other hand, the Pebble Keys 2 uses two AAA batteries for power and has somewhat more unusual circular-shaped keycaps.
