The MX Keys Logitech was a little expensive but I love it....they had cheaper ones but just did not like the look of them but this one struck my eye and I was sold. The quality and the use of this key board is great and it is great w/my Logitech mouse....I do recommend purchasing this item...

The MX Keys looks great and is just slightly larger than my trusty old A1243 Apple aluminum USB keyboard from 2007. I like a full-size keyboard + number pad and preferred the minimal size of the A1243 keyboard with no batteries/charging, but the MX Keys keyboard is so much nicer to use and the keys are backlit.
A full charge using the included USB-C cable should last 10 days or up to 5 months with backlighting off -if you are into that sort of thing. I don’t need to charge the keyboard often.
The dished center and smooth edges of the keys are very comfortable. I like the response of the keys while typing and they are quiet. The keyboard feels sturdy and has enough weight to stay put and not float around your desk. The backlight is a huge upgrade from my old keyboard.
The keyboard backlight can be set manually to one of eight settings (including off), but it can automatically adjust intensity based on lighting conditions. The keyboard has a proximity sensor that detects your approaching fingers and automatically illuminates the keys. The keys will fade out about 5 seconds after your hands leave the keyboard, saving battery life. If your hand is still while resting on the keyboard, the backlight will time out after a longer period of time. The light is on again as soon as you lift a finger to type. I find overnight, the keyboard wakes from a deeper sleep and the backlight remains off instead of my usual on but lowest setting. I know it doesn’t sound like a big deal but not having to tap a key to wake the backlight is great. The timing of the backlight fade in/out working with the proximity detector works perfectly. Nailed it.
Easy Switch is great. You can pair the MX Keys keyboard with up to three computers using Bluetooth or use the included Unifying receiver. Quickly switch between computers by tapping one of three Easy-Switch buttons on the keyboard. It is very easy to use this keyboard with two computers side by side. I use our windows 10 laptops on a stand next to my iMac and it is so nice being able to use the same keyboard for both instead of reaching over to the laptop keyboard.
I’ve switched back and forth between Bluetooth and Unifying receiver connections on Mojave and Windows 10 and see no benefit to using the Unifying receiver and tying up a USB port if your computer supports Bluetooth. The keyboard remembers button assignments when switching between Bluetooth and Unifying connections or if you remove the device and add again later.
I love this keyboard. I use this with two windows 10 laptops next to my iMac and using the same keyboard between two operating systems increases productivity. Wonderful that everything stays paired and I can instantly switch between machines with a quick tap of a button.
*Logitech Options software:
The Logitech Options software is easy to use, and it can automatically back up your settings to the cloud. Much nicer than their buggy G Hub software. The settings for the “MX Keys Wireless Keyboard” are organized on the Keyboard panel. There is also an Easy-Switch panel but that only displays the Operating system and computer name assigned to each Easy Switch channel.
The Keyboard panel is straightforward. You can map custom actions to the 13 keys in the top row right of the esc key. You can also map different actions to the 4 keys above the numeric keypad. Selecting one of the keys presents a pop-up list with the Default key action, Keystroke assignment and Open application actions but you can expand the list to 36 actions including None.
You can select the fn key to setup Duolink with a compatible mouse. This is the most powerful feature of the keyboard if you have the MX Master 3 mouse. The feature toggles a second set of gestures and button actions on the mouse when you hold the keyboard FN key.
I modified the Screen capture key to capture Window instead of Full screen. The default action for the Lock key did nothing in Mojave so I set it to keystroke “Opt + Cmd + L” that I use as a Keyboard App shortcut to lock the screen. I’ve never found MacOS Launchpad useful, so I changed the key to App Expose. There is a checkbox to use all F1-F12 keys as standard function keys instead of media keys. The keyboard defaults to media keys. You can easily toggle between FN or Media keys by pressing the fn + esc keys and then again to toggle back. You can temporarily toggle the action of the top row by pressing fn + one of the keys.
There have been a few times we experienced lag. I notice it when toggling the top row media/function keys. My son plays games on Steam and mentioned he experiences some lag. When he presses the same key over and over really fast and it didn’t keep up.
*Using the MX Keys keyboard with the MX Master 3 mouse:
Duolink is a great feature. You hold the FN key on the MX Keys while you move the MX Master 3 mouse or click the buttons. You can define another complete set of actions and gestures for the mouse and toggle them with the FN key.
Tapping the Easy-Switch buttons on the MX Keys to switch between computers won’t automatically switch the MX Master 3 mouse. You will need to switch both. It would have been a great feature to automatically switch the mouse when you switch the keyboard like a KVM switch.
*Using the MX Keys keyboard in close proximity to Powerplay wireless charging system:
If you use the Powerplay to charge a mouse you will need to keep the edge of the MX Keys keyboard at least an inch away from the edge of the Powerplay charging base. When the Powerplay is on (plugged in) it interferes with the MX Keys proximity detector, keeping the backlight on all the time. My keyboard’s proximity detector is affected by the wireless charging pad if they are closer than 3/4 of an inch.
*Compatibility with Java Minecraft:
The Duolink feature doesn’t work well with Java apps, at least not Minecraft on Mojave. Using the “fn” key on the MX Keys keyboard while playing Minecraft can enable the Duolink feature on my MX Master 3 mouse and it stays on, like I am still holding the “fn” key. This continues even after switching apps. I must switch out of Java (Minecraft) tap the “fn” several times and/or press “fn + esc” to toggle the media/function keys several times while clicking the mouse to get Duolink “unstuck”.
I normally leave my keyboard set to use the top row as Function keys. If you press the “fn” key while pressing a F1-F12 key the “fn” temporarily toggles the Media/Function behavior. This works perfectly in all my apps except Java Minecraft. Instead of using the “fn” key to temporarily toggle F12 to Volume Down I must press “fn + esc” to completely switch my top row of Function keys to Media keys, make the volume adjustment, then press “fn + esc” again to toggle the row of Media keys back to Function keys. Pressing the “fn” key even while pressing “esc” in java can result in the MX mouse switching into the stuck Duolink mode.
Strange behavior that doesn’t happen with any other app and it doesn’t happen with my other keyboard. Logitech Options and Logitech G Hub software both have compatibility issues with Java Minecraft. Commands and customizations get assigned to the launcher app instead of Java -the actual game.

Yes, you can buy a magic keyboard with the same price but this one is a full size keyboard with backlights. Maybe you prefer a smaller size keyboard, but the backlight is something everybody likes.
Feels premium with great build quality. Easy installation of the Logitech software.

I bought this keyboard for my work computer (windows) since I’m working from home these days. I also have a Mac as my personal computer. For my Mac I have the Apple Wireless keyboard with keypad which I love using.
However, after using the MX keys for two weeks now, I don’t really pull out my Apple key board any more. When switching computers I just push a button at the top of the keyboard and it switches over. Also, I actually find the key presses of this keyboard to be more satisfying and quieter than my Mac keyboard.
This product is well built and worth the cost. The only caveat I’d say is it’s pretty heavy. Which I like for working at home. If you need to travel with your keyboard though, you may want to consider something lighter.

Since starting to work from home I've been using apple's magic keyboard to work with my Mac mini and my Dell laptop. It was hard so I decided to find good wireless keyboard with ability to connect to multiply devices and also with illuminated keycaps.
Logitech is well known company which produces excellent keyboards and mouses. MX Key is no exception! It is costly, but it is working so well that it worth it.
Connected to mac mini and PC laptop, switching between them is very fast. Almost instant.
Illumination is a very good addition especially when you work in dark environment.
Customizable functional keys is a huge plus! You can do customization per application
Overall this is one of the best hardware made by Logitech!

This keyboard feels exquisite. Types very well and keys are soft in touch. I haven’t really pushed it to the limit yet. I love the fact that it illuminates in the dark.

I have the need to switch between my Macbook Pro for work and my gaming PC, and I was sick of maintaining multiple keyboards given the different layouts for mac and pc.
This keyboard somehow bridges those two incredibly well and feels really intuitive in either environment.
Having paired this with a MX Master 2S mouse, I'm able to seamless switch between my computers.

I've been using this keyboard for 4 months for WFH. With my job, I use both a Windows machine and a Mac, so the ability to support both is great. The charge holds for weeks and i haven't had any issues with connectivity, but I've mostly used the dongle and not the bluetooth. I pair it with my Logitech mouse on the receiver.
The angle on the keyboard is pretty shallow and you don't have any way to adjust it (flat or higher). The keys are not very raised but they do have a smooth texture and i like the feedback. Not too loud but also not too soft and "smushy" like other thin keyboards.
