Customer Ratings & Reviews

I'll start this review by saying that I'm coming into it as a HUGE fan of the Logitech MX Keys keyboards. I own two others- one for work and one for my home office. I have found them extremely reliable, able to hold up to my heavy typing, and the quality is top notch. But my previous MX Keys keyboards were the model for PC. Work makes me use a PC, so I have purchased several for different work location. They have been terrific purchases. This is the first version I've tried that was built for Macs. While work requires me to use PCs, for personal use, I prefer Macs. I own a Mac Studio for power use at home and a Macbook Air for portability. My wife also has a Macbook Air and we have 3 ipads between us. We've drunk the Apple Kool-Aid and are happily bought into the ecosystem. Given I love the PC version of this keyboard so much, what is different on the Mac version? Truthfully, very little. The PC version layout is identical although color options are slightly different. The CMD/ALT, FN, and OPT/CTRL keys are dual labeled on the PC version so you could use it on either PC or Mac. On the Mac version, the PC labels are removed and just the Mac labels remain. Pretty much everything else is the same, which is a really good thing. The keyboard is built to be very solid, with little or no flex to it. The rechargeable battery (via USB-C) lasts for weeks even with the keyboard illumination feature turned on. I am a hard typist- I slam my fingers on to the keys which is a holdover from years of using older mechanical keyboards. I have not had a problem with the MX Keys holding up to my typing. The keys respond quickly and the labels on all the keys show no signs of wearing off after extensive use. One of the best features of the keyboard is it's ability to connect to 3 different bluetooth devices. There are buttons on the keyboard for quick switching between devices. I have mine setup for 1. Mac Studio; 2. Macbook Air; and 3. iPad Pro. I can sit in from of my Studio with the iPad ot Macbook open and easily switch between typing on any of the devices. It just takes a brief second or two to switch. I can categorically recommend this keyboard for any Mac user. I find it more capable and a better typing experience than the Apple built keyboards. The single complaint I have about it, and the only fix I wish they would make, is that the keyboard does not have the fingerprint reader for signing in that the Apple keyboard has. It's the only feature I truly miss moving from Apple to Logitech. Being able to log into my machine with a single key press is extremely convenient. I miss it on the MX Keys. If they added this, it would be a Grand Slam device.

Logitech has made a name for themselves as a premiere accessory provider whether it be mouses, webcams, or keyboards and the MX Keys S is simply put my favorite keyboard I have used and its an excellent choice for the Mac! PROS: - Unboxing this you can tell how premium it is right away. It has a really nice metal and black finish to it along with a nice weight that you know means they put in good quality work to the keyboard. - The keyboard connects 1 of 2 days; either through a USB dongle or via Bluetooth. I prefer the USB dongle for my Mac but the Bluetooth is excellent as you can switch between your Mac and two other Bluetooth devices with ease so I often switch from my iPad and Mac. - This MX Keys S was made specifically for a Mac as you can see by its Mac specific buttons like the command icon and emoji key which is nice that helps maintain that consistent Mac experience. - Typing with the MX Keys S is truly a wonderful experience. When you hover your hands over the keyboard, it senses you are there and will turn the backlit keys on which is such a cool feature, and then typing is great. It’s precise, has a nice balance of responsiveness but low profile, and is really just a fast typing experience. - Logitech has a companion App you can download for your Mac as well to check on the MX Keys’ battery life or make some settings changes which is a nice feature as well. - Lastly, this does not need batteries and is charged via USB-C which works perfectly as all of my other Mac/tech devices charge with USB-C anyways and the battery last a long time! CONS: - Really nothing I have run into is a “con” to me. It checks every mark and does it very well! BOTTOM LINE: - As Mac owners know, you need a keyboard along with your Mac; and the Logitech MX Keys S is the best one you can buy! It’s got a great build, excellent backlit keyboard sensing features, and the typing experience is so fluid and easy you will tell a huge difference compared to other ones you have used. This is the keyboard to pick for a Mac!

I am loving my new Logitech keyboard for Mac. It has all the things you probably wanted from the Apple keyboard that just aren’t there like the screen capture button without having to remember Apple short cuts, a function button for emojis, a full number pad, and it’s tilted upward in the back for a more ergonomic feel. My previous Magic Keyboard was not very magical. I had it rested on papers so that it would be slightly tilted for a better angle when typing. The Logitech one looks great in the space gray color, and it has a perfect tilt in the back to make typing feel a little smoother and be a little easier on your wrist. The keys feel very smooth to type with and have little finger indents so you can really feel your fingers transferring from key to key. They are also back illuminated which can be turned up, down and off in the function keys depending on your preference and they turn on as you go to touch the keyboard. Turning this off will help your battery last significantly longer but nonetheless a cool feature if your lighting isn’t the best. Speaking of the F keys, I almost feel like I got my Touch Bar back with the extra functions this Logitech keyboard gives me. I like the emojis button because I do tend to use a potentially excessive amount of emojis. There are also 3 keys to customize via app located on their website (I couldn’t find it in the App Store) and switch to say your iPad or MacBook at the touch of a single button which is pretty cool if you have a multiple screen setup and or are a big multitasker. Another bonus for me, it charges with the usb C. I’m trying to rid my life of lightning cables and minus my mouse and trackpad I am almost there. If you’re looking for a great alternative to the Apple keyboard with better features and more comfortable typing experience, this is it.

I bought this keyboard to use with my iPad for writing. The keys and layout are very comfortable, and the keyboard has all the connectivity options you may need. The backlighting works well but can be turned off to extend usage between recharging which is easily done with a USB-C cable. The keyboard is a little pricey, but it can be found on sale occasionally for a better value. It is a high quality item though.

Great keyboard for Mac Mini computer. Connected quickly without issues, smooth key touch without the clicking sound.

The Logitec keyboard works flawlessly, the keys are very soft. The setup with the Apple Macbook Pro was super simple via bluetooth. The Logitec software interacts well this the keyboard and Macbook. Great buy!

a step up from previous mx model, better feel, quiet and good battery life. This is my third mx keyboard over the years, like it the best, less lag in picking up my apple computer, more stable connections than in past

This is my third MX Key keyboard and the first one made specifically for the Mac. So obviously, I like these keyboards. Here are a few highlights of what I like about them: They have a good keyboard "feels" - I am a big fan of mechanical keyboards for their "feels" and I own many mechanical keyboards (IBM Model M anybody?). Yet, the MX Keys are my daily drivers. The reason why is that they give nice "feels" that I like in mechanical keyboards but in a much more manageable size. The keys are not mushy and have a nice "clicky" action that makes using the keyboard a joy. They are quiet. They allow for switching among 3 different devices - have this one connect to my Mac, iPhone and iMac. Comes in handy for sure when working on multiple devices. They are backlit. Earlier versions of the MX Keys had issues with flashing backlighting but it appears Logi figured it out and fixed the problem. No flashing on any of my MX Keys The only con for this specific version of the MX Keys is that this one is Bluetooth only. There is no dongle like my other MX Keys. Yes, you can argue that this is Mac specific so Bluetooth only make sense but not having a dongle seems to me a bit of a miss. Minor con for sure. 10/10

Great keyboard for the price. Connects easily with Bluetooth or with the provided cord. Lower profile keys with nice spacing and backlit.

Love this keyboard. Long charge and works flawlessly with my macbook pro. aesthetically it looks great!

I own the original 1st Generation MX Keys and it is a fantastic keyboard, way better than Apple's Magic Keyboard and just as good looking too. But the original MX Keys has an annoying and highly distracting 5-second backlight timeout that can't be adjusted. People have been asking Logitech to allow adjustments to the timeout duration for years, and instead of fixing it via a software update, they release this new keyboard with that feature enabled in the Logi Options + app. I was disappointed to find out that this new MX Keys S is really nothing new. There's no physical improvements over the Original MX Keys. It's still the same great keyboard, they just swapped out a few keyboard shortcut icons on the F keys and THEY FINALLY ADDED AN ADJUSTABLE BACKLIGHT TIMEOUT DURATION!! It's now adjustable from 5 seconds to 30 minutes via the app. Oh yeah, and they no longer include a USB receiver so connectivity is via bluetooth only, no more plug and play. Logitech could have and should have provided this feature long ago via a software update because it was widely considered a defect, but instead they make you buy a new keyboard if you want it fixed. To make people buy a new keyboard to fix the only flaw the 1st Generation MX Keys had (and people were asking for it to be fixed) feels disingenuous. It does not engender brand loyalty. Logitech provides good products with distasteful experiences. Logitech will no longer be my first choice when I need a new computer accessory.

This keyboard is great, it connects to any Bluetooth enabled device, such as my iPad Pro & MacBook Pro M4. Just make sure you have the latest iOS release to ensure the keyboard works properly.

Long lasting battery life, easy connections, and the back light makes it a winner over Apple keyboards!

If you're looking for connectivity & functionality, this keyboard does the trick. However, if you're looking for durability, keep looking. My main gripes are the grippy feet on the bottom of the keyboard which detatch starting around month 6. And the gooey adhesive only makes things worse. Another gripe is that the key coating begins to flake off around month 12. Most keys are fine, but a couple of common keys are beginning to wear pretty badly. And for those looking at the keyboard-mouse combo, the soft touch finish on the mouse started to degrade around month 18.

Nice feel! Easy consistent connection! Backlight keys are awesome!

Excellent iMac alternative keyboard. Bluetooth connected meaning NO dongle to mess with.

I love this keyboard for Mac! The keys are backlit and the connectivity is smooth. It is the perfect addition to my MacBook and home office.

Easy to set up with Bluetooth and step by step instructions as well. Fast to switch over from one devices to another by just a click of a button. Lots of functions and just overall amazing

Works great with my mac book, great conectivity and integration

So far this keyboard has connected to my MacBook and is working great so far.
