Our Verdict

Obinslab Anne Pro 2

Logitech POP Keys

The Obinslab Anne Pro 2 and the Logitech POP Keys are both compact mechanical boards, but the Obinslab is better for gaming. The Obinslab has much lower latency, RGB backlighting, and more programmable keys. Also, you can pair it with one extra device than the Logitech can. It's available with a wider variety of mechanical switch brands. On the other hand, if you're looking for a board for daily computer tasks and to message people, the Logitech might be better thanks to its dedicated emoji keys.
