Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this keyboard because it has backlit keys. I often use my IMac late at night under low light conditions and this product makes it so much easier to see what I’m typing. It’s slightly larger than the keypad that Apple supplies with its computers which is actually a plus in my opinion. It’s more ergonomic and makes using it more comfortable. Easy to set up and use. It can pair with up to 3 computers in the house including an Ipad with just the touch of a button. It’s missing a couple of function keys on the board specifically the screen brightness buttons which control how bright your screen is. Not a big deal because that can also be changed in settings. Besides I never change the brightness. Instead these keys increase or decrease the light level of the keyboard. I purchased the grey keyboard and the only short coming that I’ve noticed is the keyboard washes out in full lighting conditions if the back light is left turned on. Meaning I can’t see the letters on the keys unless I turn the back light off. Most likely do to the light color of the keys themselves. Not a big deal just turn it off. At night these keys stand out. The black keyboard may solve the problem but I still prefer the grey. Other then this it operates exactly like the factory original. I would definitely recommend purchasing this product.

Keyboards aren’t a big deal, right? Well I beg to differ, it’s the primary way we interact with our computers, so I think keyboards are a more important part of the user experience than most people realize. With that said, I couldn’t pass up a chance to review this Logitech MX Keys Mini Keyboard on my MacBook Pro. I’m absolutely loving the way this keyboard functions and feels and so far don’t have any complaints about it. In order to keep this review brief, I’m just going to break down this review into a few categories that I feel are relevant when reviewing keyboards. Build Quality: This keyboard is built like a tank. I’ve owned several keyboards and the build quality of this one is on par with several of the expensive mechanical keyboards I own. You can tell right off the bat that this is built well with it’s aluminum finish and it’s hefty weight. The keys seem solid and have a weighty, well built feel to them as well. Ease of Use: Connecting this is as simple as turning it on (after making sure you charge it with the USB-C cable) and waiting for it to come up in your Mac’s bluetooth menu. After pushing a confirmation code, you’re good to go. Charging it via the supplied USB-C cable will yield 10 days of usage with the backlight on or 5 months with it off. I wish the backlight didn’t affect the battery life so severely, but I don’t use it, so it’s a non-issue to me. Feel and Useability: The keys are slightly raised, which give you a longer stroke than most keyboards with this slim of a profile. This is a pro for me and feels much more natural than other keyboards. This is entirely subjective though, as some people really like the keys on laptops and don’t have an issue with less keystroke travel. The keys are all in the appropriate positions, with the exception of it not having a 10 key number pad and the 2 smaller keys for the left and right arrows. Overall I have no complaints here, the keyboard feels great. The keys are also very quiet, with no noticeable noise of any kind other than the normal keyboard sounds you get when typing. Overall I think this is a solid choice for someone looking for an alternative to the official Apple offerings for keyboards and I don’t believe Logitech MX Keys Mini will disappoint anyone looking for a high quality keyboard that should last a very long time.

--- SETUP --- The keyboard was easy to set up but does require you to enter a code to verify you are choosing a new keyboard. As soon as you turn it on, go to your Mac’s Bluetooth settings and you will find it. --- FEATURES --- This keyboard is smaller than a regular keyboard with the keys being closer together for faster typing. It has concave keys, backlighting, and USB rechargeable. You can pair up to three devices (Macbook, iPad, iMac) and switch between them with a button. --- PERFORMANCE --- The keyboard performs great. Personally, though I work with PCs and Macs daily, I have a greater preference towards the Mac’s keyboard, as it feels more natural to type on. This Logitech wireless keyboard gives me the same feeling and I love it. With how small the keyboard is and my limited desk space, I was able to create more room for my mouse. The wireless keyboard allowed me to move my Macbook further back for easier workflow and gave me even more deskspace. Not once did I notice a delay in the keys. When typing, I felt like I was typing faster, but I didn’t actually test myself. --- EXPECTATIONS --- I really like the backlit keyboard keys, but when surrounded by light, they get so bright that it’s hard to tell what key you are looking at. I do type without looking, but sometimes you just have to look down to find something specific (especially when coding) and having those backlit keys turned on can slow you down. You can adjust the backlight, though. --- APPROVAL --- This is a wonderful small keyboard for the minimalist in you or as a travel companion.

I like this keyboard, but I exchanged it for the one that is for Windows not Mac. They are pretty much exactly the same besides a few of the buttons that are specific to Mac. This keyboard has held up well for a couple of years, but recently a key fell off. It has a long battery life and always connects well. It's easy to take with me and is comfortable to type on.

I have been a long-time Logitech peripheral fan - in fact I would go as far as to say I wouldn't use anything else for my Mac / MacBook on a daily basis. The MX Keys Mini is a solid Logitech keyboard as you would expect, including some of the things that the Apple native keyboards are missing like an intelligent backlight, and the ability to hot-switch between multiple paired devices. In terms of operations, the scissor action is (in my opinion) superior to the default Apple variants, and it generally feels more robust and the kind of thing you could throw in a backpack and not worry about it. (which as this is designed to be used with iPads as well as Macs, is something that a lot of people might do). So why only 3 stars? Well firstly the most confusing part, connectivity; 1) If you're an existing Logitech fan you know that you can pair with devices via Bluetooth , or using a Logitech unifying receiver (basically a USB dongle) to avoid any issues with OS features like Filevault (which prevents bluetooth peripherals being used on first boot).. In the past if you purchase an MX Keys for Mac they come with a unifying receiver - the MX Keys mini does not come with anything other than a USB-C charging cable , and now here's the kicker. - Yes, you can still pair it via Bluetooth. No problems. - No, you can NOT pair it to an existing Logitech unifying receiver - Yes, you can pair it with the newly announced Logitech Bolt which although not provided, will also not work with any previous MX products, unless you purchased the 'business' variant of the device. 2) Secondary is a personal , cosmetic issue - but it does impact the usability. If you purchase the pale gray variant, the keys are white and the letters are visible with grey letters. As soon as the backlight kicks in, the letters are...welll... the same colors as the keys so you can't really read them. The simple solution here is to set the backlight as low as possible, so its only really effective in completely dark rooms - or just but the keyboard in the space grey color. (on the grey keyboard the keys are black and the letters are white, so backlighting doesn't affect readability) For now I won't be able to use this as my main keyboard for these 2 reasons - I'm going to use it on my secondary computer which will benefit from the backlight in a darker room in the house, but I'll be keeping my existing MX Keys for Mac as my everyday keyboard. If you got this far, remember - this keyboard works with the new Logitech Bolt , but all other MX products have to be the 'Business' variant of the product line. If you need to get around FileVault, this is a pretty big issue Mac users need to be aware of before you purchase co-dependent peripherals. I received this product as part of a technical evaluation exercise - although all opinions expressed here are my own based on my experiences using the product myself.

This keyboard has a lot going for it - backlighting, USB-C connectivity, easy multi-device switching that works flawlessly. And it's really portable, small enough to fit in a travel back without too much hassle. That being said, I did return it in favor of the larger full-size model for a few important reasons: - This model doesn't have keys to change display brightness, which is important when using an external display. - This model doesn't have the "Expose" function in the F3 key, to show open applications easily. - This model only has a "Turn on Do Not Disturb" key in the upper right, whereas the larger model has a real "lock" button to require password re-entry, and that is really nice on a Mac used in a shared environment.

This keyboard works really well. I like the feel of the keys. Most importantly I like that it connects to my iPad Pro, iPad mini and my iPhone with no issues. Connecting is one key away. It keeps me productive even when I’m switching. The backlit keys are a nice touch when I need it. I also love the portability. It’s not the lightest but that’s what makes it feel like a premium keyboard.

Like many others who have to learn how to navigate hybrid working, this keyboard is a real gamechanger for anyone having to adapt to ‘the new normal’ of flexible working. It’s compact, portable, and can be used across multiple devices (I use for PC, macbook, and my iPad). The keys are ergonomically designed to better fit your fingertips, and the typing experience is pleasant and tactile, but not too clicky. It feels and sounds like the Macbook keyboard. The keyboard is also stylish and robust, with a low profile design that makes it easy to stuff in my backpack. t’s perfect for creatives and busy working professionals who are always on the go. Build quality is premium, also. Highly recommend it to anyone that is already in the Logitech MX Master ecosystem.

I almost exclusively use Logitech peripherals and went into this one with confidence back by the many years of excellent experience. This keyboard is excellent and everything you'd expect from Logitech...but it has one flaw (your mileage may vary on this): it's actually harder to press the keys than it is on the other MX-series keyboards. I like having more ooomph in the typing action, but with the scissor switches meant for short activation distances, I've ended up drumming the keyboard. Which is such a shame, because the feel of this is a bit better than the Magic keyboard. Pros: -- Keys are fantastic. The MX key caps caress the fingertips. -- Solid. This thing has thunk. -- Excellent build quality. Cons: -- Scissor switches. For me, at least, the activation distance variation between the regular MX and this one means I'm constantly either drumming the keyboard or missing letters when I switch back and forth. -- Lack of fingerprint sensor. It's a nitpick, one I would share with the other MX keyboards to be fair. All in all, best non-OEM keyboard for anything in the ecosystem.

Love the feel of the keyboard when typing. The keys have a nice bounce to them. The build of the keyboard does not feel cheap or flimsy. Pair nicely to both the laptop and the phone and with one keystroke it moves between both devices. (It’s will connect with 3 devices I don’t have a third to connect the keyboard.)

Perfect size keyboard for my minimal space. This keyboard has a long lasting charge and it was super easy to connect it via bluetooth to my Mac laptop.

Backlighting is very good, does not drain the power as much as I would have believed after reading other users' review. I am a pilot, so checklists, and regular maintenance is not a stranger; I plug it into a charger at the same time once a week overnight whether it needs it or not. A little bit heavier than the equivalent Apple (TM) Magic Keyboard (R), but the feel is better if you care about such things (I also write code and tech documents, so it matters for me). Bonus: three BT connections that I use: computer, phone, tablet. Apple Magic Keyboard can't do that either. Also: USB-C charging makes me pack fewer cables and dongles for travel.

Great Bluetooth keyboard to use with Mac OS and a Mac Mini! The light for the backlit keys is smart and turns off when your hands are away from the keyboard -- and it fades back on quickly as your hands approach the keyboard. Brightness of backlight can be adjusted or turned off. Lasted several days with moderate/heavy usage and didn't show any change in 100% charge in System BT Settings. Easy to charge with a C-style cable. Keys feel great and well spaced. Only real complaint is the arrow keys are small, but that is a minor adjustment. Really appreciate having keys for Mac labeled on the keyboard instead of using a 'standard' Windows keyboard. The size is perfect to fit in a small backpack for on-the-go computing.

I wanted a keyboard for my new iPad Air Gen 5. Apples keyboards were very costly. There were plenty of alternatives out there. In my opinion this was the best. It is small enough to take along with me, has a backlit keyboard, can be used on 3 different devices (via built in switch), the keyboard is the same as on my MacBook Pro, and has a full row of function keys (and the Apple keyboards don’t) Plus this was way way less money than the Apple keyboard. Oh. And it is a joy to type on.

This compact yet verstile keyboard is a must for any Mac user. The design is excellent and backlit keyboard when your hands comes in reach of the keyboard is nice too. The only thing negative is when you power off your Mac or restart it, you have to pair it again. Other than that Logitech continues to be my brand of choice for keyboards and mice.

It looks great. It feels great to type on. It has more features than I need because I’m just using it with an iPad, but it is by far the best choice for everything I could possibly want to use it for.

I bought this for travel and I’m very happy with it. I purchased a hard case to protect it. The battery life is great. I travel with a MacBook, Linux laptop and a windows laptop. The keyboard allows three devices to be setup and you press a key to select which device is active. It supports Bluetooth and Logitech’s new Bolt receiver. My windows laptop is locked down and I can’t use Bluetooth so I use Bolt. The only drawback is that the keys are white and the backlight is white so you can’t see the key letters in bright light. Since I can’t install software on the windows laptop I can’t change the lighting for bright conditions so I had to disable the backlight. Then it’s hard to use in low light. The backlight color should able to be changed. I contacted support and was told that there is nothing I can do. And the Mac version is only available in white. I tried to get individual black keys to replace the white but that was incredibly expensive. Overall I'm very happy with the keyboard.

Logitech is the way to go , I’ve had this keyboard for about six months and only charged it once, and don’t need to have lights on the key iluminate very nicely

The compact size is great and the build quality is what you would expect from Logitech. I like the material used for the buttons and the smooth functionality. Range on this is great with my Macbook Pro and the battery lasts a really long time. I would recommend this item if you are looking for a keyboard to use with your setup / setups.

Best keyboard I’ve used to date! Linked to my computer easily and the intelligent light system is awesome
