I've been using the Apple Magic Keyboard for about 3 years so I want to focus my review on how the MX Mechanical Mini compares to it. Overall, I prefer the MX Mechanical Mini as it's a better experience but there are a few things that I miss from the Apple Magic Keyboard. ***LAYOUT*** It took a couple of days to get used to the layout so don't feel discouraged at first. I was concerned it might affect my productivity but eventually, I got more comfortable with it and now it's a non-issue. If you look at my screenshot, you can see the differences between the two keyboards. Most notably, the keys on the Logitech are slightly narrower and the keys in the bottom right arranged differently. There were a few instances where I was hitting the wrong keys while typing but again, my mind got used to the layout after a few days. Some of the exclusive keys on the Logitech have been useful (screenshot, mic mute, home/end/pg up/pg dn) although the emoji key has been useless to me (I've remapped it to Mission Control). I do miss the forward/rewind and the brightness keys on the Magic Mouse but it's not a dealbreaker for me. Logitech's keyboard is backlit while Apple doesn't have one. I normally work in a well lit environment so this isn't a significant improvement for me but it could be very useful for your needs. I've also never been a big fan of the way the arrow keys are placed on the Apple Keyboard so the Logitech gets the win here. ***SIZE*** The Apple Magic Keyboard is not only a bit smaller but weighs less as well so it wins out here. I don't think it's that big of an issue unless you travel with your mouse/keyboard and your laptop bag is already filled to capacity. ***CONNECTIVITY*** MX Mechanical Mini easily wins here. I have a work laptop and a personal laptop so switching back and forth between the two with just the press of a button is so much better than having to turn constantly disconnect/reconnect the Apple Keyboard. ***TYPING EXPERIENCE*** Mechanical keyboards are generally superior for typing and the MX Mechanical Mini is no exception. I can't believe what I've been missing all these years! The MX Mechanical Mini has a pair of tilt legs (unlike Apple's) which puts it at a higher angle and feels better ergonomically. The feel of pressing the keys with the combination of the sound it makes also gives it a more premium feel and experience. Have I noticed an improvement in my typing speed? Not really but the better experience is noticeable though. The only thing that I prefer the Apple Magic Keyboard here is how it's quieter. Despite the MX Mechanical Mini being "Tactile Quiet", it still makes a bit of noise. This isn't a problem for me about 90% of the time but there are instances where I need to be more gentle with my typing in order to reduce the amount of noise it makes. ***PRICE*** MX Mechanical Mini is $50 more than the Apple Magic Keyboard and more expensive than other Mechanical Keyboards so this isn't an easy decision for most. I would say the MX Mechanical Mini is worth it if you: - Use multiple devices and want to switch easier - You spend hours doing heavy typing and a comfortable experience is a priority - Can take advantage of the extra key shortcuts and don't mind the lack of certain Mac specific keys like brightness and Mission Control.

I've been using the Logitech MX Mechanical Mini for a few weeks now, and I'm absolutely loving it. It's the perfect keyboard for my needs, as a software developer who spends a lot of time typing. The first thing I noticed about the MX Mechanical Mini is the build quality. It's made of solid aluminum, and it feels very sturdy and well-made. The keys are also very responsive, with a satisfying tactile feel. I love the fact that you can choose between three different switch types, so you can find the one that's perfect for your typing style. The MX Mechanical Mini is also wireless, which is a big plus for me. I can easily move it around my desk, or even take it with me when I travel. The battery life is also excellent, and I've only had to charge it once since I got it. Another thing I love about the MX Mechanical Mini is the backlighting. The keys light up automatically when you approach them, and they adjust to the ambient light in the room. This is a great feature for late-night coding sessions, or when you're working in a dimly lit environment. Overall, I'm incredibly impressed with the Logitech MX Mechanical Mini. It's the perfect keyboard for anyone who spends a lot of time typing. It's well-made, responsive, and wireless. I highly recommend it.

Such a good keyboard. I actually found some low profile keycaps and replaced them from the normal gray scale caps and it brings a new life to it (see bottom most keyboard in the picture). I felt the regular caps were just dull and dark which could be your vibe. Other than that the software works with their options software which works nicely with my Mx master mouse so it just works. I also like how it’s not rgb so it’s not a distraction as I use it for work and sometimes take it in to the office. I got the brown switches which work for me. Price is a little on the pricy side I will say and there may be better options out there but I have no regrets with this purchase.
