Customer Ratings & Reviews

I'm very happy with my purchase of the keyboard. I have it connected via the Bluetooth and it was an easy set-up process.

Great product. I even bought another one in white. I love it much cheaper than Apple keyboard

Backlight sensor is great addition but it often misses the motion, you need to hover over keyboard to make it alive.

Only had keyboard for less than a few months and the illumination of keyboard keys turns off when plugged in or unplugged, even when fully charged. I thought Logitech was more reliable and dependable on their products.

It might be something we don’t think about, but having a high quality keyboard is something that can really improve your overall experience on a computer! Whether you are a creator, business owner, entrepreneur, or someone who works from home everyday - you use your keyboard a lot! The Logitech MX Keys S is an exceptional performer in this world! PROS: - The look and feel of this keyboard is very premium! Has a really nice build, love the profile of it, and overall makes for a stylish look. - Setup is also very easy! Either use the Bolt Receiver or the Bluetooth connection and you are good to go. - The biggest difference between the previous MX Keys and the MX Keys S is that the “S” model comes with a Bolt receiver instead of a unifying receiver. The Bolt receiver provides a stronger connection and more secure connection as well which is important in the workspace! - The typing experience itself is fantastic! The keys feel great and are really responsive, everything is really fluid, and the response rate is great. The profile also really helps with my wrist comfort and overall I feel like I can type much fast with this keyboard based on how easy it is to use. - Connection versatility is also a big hit! You can use the Bolt receiver or the 3 Bluetooth options. So overall you can be connected to 3 devices at once and use the buttons to switch between the three devices easily. - Along with that, the illumination is super cool. The keyboard can sense when your hands are near and it will backlit the keyboard! Very nice feature. - I also like how this charges via USB-C and the battery is long lasting. Much easier to charge it then have to get new batteries. - Lastly, this works with almost anything: Windows, Mac, iPad, Chromebook! CONS: - Really none I can think of. Very pleased with this! BOTTOM LINE: - If you want a high end premium typing experience, the MX Keys S is simply the best! It has great fluid responsive keys, strong secure connections, and works with whatever you need it on. As someone who types a lot I can say I have thoroughly enjoyed using this keyboard and look forward to us being my daily driver!

Anyone who spends a lot of time on a computer typically has a preference, whether weak or strong, for a keyboard with certain features and styles. The Logitech MX Keys S keyboard is a good choice for you if... - You prefer low profile keys - Backlighting is important (this one has multiple levels of lighting) - You like the ability to customize keys on your keyboard (up to 17 keys you can customize) - You want to be able to use the same keyboard with multiple devices, especially if you want both Windows and Mac OS compatibility (up to 3 devices) - You hate dealing with batteries and prefer a rechargeable device - Your preferred aesthetic is a thin, compact, light-weight keyboard This is not the keyboard for you if... - You don't have or don't want to use Bluetooth - You only want to rely on Logitech Unifying receivers. --- Used the old model before? --- The Logitech MX Keys S keyboard has some fantastic features. If you have previously used the Logitech MX Keys (without the "S" in the name), you will notice only slight variations in the keyboard, specifically with the default programming with the keys. The Function keys still have the display brightness adjustments (one for "up", one for "down"), the keyboard backlight adjustment buttons (one for "up", one for "down"), and the volume and play control buttons. However, now there is the addition of: - A dictation button (one button to switch to voice to text, permissions required in your operating system) - A microphone mute button (handy for things like video calls) - An emoji button (super handy if use emojis) As is common with most keyboards, these extra functions are on as the default, and to access the normal Function keys (F1, F2, F3, etc), you hold down the "fn" key before pressing one. You can quickly change to the normal Function keys being the default simply by pressing "fn" + "esc" if you need these regularly. Otherwise, the keyboard is the same in terms of hardware. --- No experience with the old model? --- If you do not have experience with the Logitech MX Keys keyboard, this keyboard is unique in it's design in a couple of ways. The keys are low profile, although a little less so than on most laptops. However, the keys seem to have a little more travel and a satisfying click. They are quite effortless to use when typing, although they have enough resistance to not be tapped too easily. With the exception of the top-most row of keys, all of the keys have dimples or round impressions in them, which really helps in giving feedback about how centered your fingers are over each key. The low travel and design of the keys also helps to limit the noise, so this is a rather quiet keyboard. The multi-device feature has become a lot more common in keyboards. This one is compatible with both Mac OS (and Apple's other mobile devices) along with everything else (Windows, Linux, Chromebooks, Android, etc). The keys are labeled with both CTRL and ALT, along with OPT and CMD, so regardless of which OS you are using, you have the proper labeling. Additionally, this is a rechargeable keyboard. The battery life seems really good so far, although this depends on the strength of the backlighting, and how quickly the lighting times out. It has a unique feature in that it can sense when your hand approaches and lights up (assuming the backlight has gone out). However, I found this to be a little less reliable than my old Logitech MX Keys (the old model without the "S"). I could actually touch the spacebar without the light turning on, but I could hold my entire hand 1.5-2 inches above the keyboard and it would trigger the lighting. In a dark setting, you really want the backlighting to be on before you approach the keyboard or you have to devote more time trying to align your hands, so while this is a cool feature, I don't find it that useful. There is also a setting that allows the backlighting to adjust according to the room lighting, but I found this annoying and disabled it (which you can do) because I found it wasn't consistent and would sometimes go to full brightness when the room was dim, and I don't want more than the lowest light setting anyway. Also note that the backlighting on this keyboard is not consistent. By that I mean that larger keys that display a longer label (such as Backspace, Page Up and Page Down, Delete, etc) are not evenly lit. It's less noticeable on a brighter setting, but my Backspace key is a little dimmer around the "ks" in the word. Overall, for the physical keyboard, I highly recommend the design of this one if you are not interested in a very manual, which I like to call a "click-clack" keyboard. It's a slim design, doesn't take up a lot of space, and has a standard key layout that doesn't require relearning the placement of anything. And of course, it's very easy to switch from one device to another by just pressing a single key. --- Now for the software (and connectivity) --- The software and connectivity is where some major changes have been made by Logitech. Long-time users of Logitech keyboards and mice have become very familiar with the Unifying receiver, that well-known USB connector that, combined with the Unifying software, makes it easy to add additional devices to your setup using the same USB receiver already plugged in. Logitech hasn't done away with this, but now it looks like they are changing the standard, introducing the new Logi Bolt connector. This is likely to introduce new technology, but be aware that these two connection methods are not compatible. This keyboard will not connect to your Unifying receiver. It does come with the new Logi Bolt connector, which in time will have greater device compatibility. You can also connect this keyboard via Bluetooth. This is the option I have chosen and I did not have any issues with it, and any standby in the connection was regained almost immediately. Additionally, the Logitech Options software is slowly being replaced by Logi Options +. Again, likely to introduce new features or just new ways to manage your Logitech devices. At the time of this writing, it wasn't very easy to find this software. I ultimately found it by opening the Logitech Options app and seeing a link there to upgrade to this new application (it's separate, so it doesn't replace Logitech Options). In Logi Options +, you can customize your devices, along with monitoring things like battery life. You can fully customize the entire top row of keys on this keyboard (minus the ESC key and the device selection keys), which is really useful if you like to do this because this gives you so many keys to customize. Along with a very long list of commands you can assign to these keys (including things like opening a specific application), you can also assign keyboard shortcuts to them. Obviously the labels on the keys will no longer apply if you do this, but there is sufficient surface space above these keys if you wanted to use a label maker to label them. --- SUMMARY --- If you are not already invested in Logitech devices, or if you're not bothered by using either a Bluetooth connection or an additional USB receiver (the new Logi Bolt receiver), this is an excellent keyboard. It has much greater customization than most keyboards do, and provides a comfortable typing experience. While the price is a bit high, it's a sturdy and well-made keyboard that provides a lot more in features and flexibility.

After taking this keyboard out of the box, giving it a quick charge, and setting up, the first thing I noticed when using this keyboard is the weight. This keyboard is a sturdy, metal, perfectly weighted keyboard that doesn't move around while you're clicking keys. At work, I used both a macbook and pc virtual module and it adapts to both without a hitch. (It's much better than my macbook pro keyboard) There's software that you can access to customize your keyboard but I was using a mechanical blue switch keyboard at work and after switching to the Logitech MX I realized my hands weren't fatigued in the afternoon from typing. The typing experience for me is very smooth. I type about 50 to 60 wpm and it was effortless on this keyboard. The keys have a nice curve and there's a light tactile feedback while typing. Ergonomics are good, matte finish stays cleaner than most, and it's simplistic design blends right in with my desk. The backlighting is subtle while typing but does the job. There are keys to switch between computers and the emoji key is a nice modern addition. This is a full size keyboard that keeps your hands fresh, switches seamlessly between computers, and gives me everything I need and nothing I don't. I would highly recommend this keyboard for any type of work environment. It also looks great on my desk : )

I changed to this keyboard having the same MX Keys without the S thinking that they just have a better performance in speed but no. This keyboard is almost 6 months that I having use less than the other but you know what? Keys are getting stick but really the other keyboard it was awesome but this one have this big issue that at the beginning thought it was just dirt on the keyboard but nothing. Worse keyboard ever. Why!!!!! I changed my MX Keys for this with S why!!!!

First, I appreciate the conscious packaging and the easy-to-follow instructions printed on the box’s lid. The keyboard itself is beautiful. It’s sleek, professional, thin, and surprisingly heavy. It feels premium for sure. The metal chassis is built like a tank with no flex at all. I feel that the keyboard will last for a long time. The keys are well separated, have decent travel, and feel smooth to the touch. The typing experience is satisfying and I love how quiet it is. The keystrokes feel precise and there is no wobble. I will say that there was an adjustment period since I was used to traditional and mechanical keyboards. Not only that, but the layout can be a bit distracting. However, once acclimated, typing became responsive and fluid. The full-fledge function row and the nifty features such as dictation, emojis, and playback control are certainly welcome. Ergonomically, the keyboard is slightly tilted and very comfortable. Still, some may need a wrist pad. Although I would not recommend this keyboard exclusively for gaming, but it is excellent for productivity. I easily connected the keyboard to 3 completely different devices -an iPad, an Android, and a Windows Laptop. I am happy to report that all devices connected seamlessly via Bluetooth, and I was able to switch effortlessly between them via the quick-switch keys. I also own an MX Master 3S mouse. I connected both to the same 2.4Hz adapter to see how the unifying option works. I downloaded the Logi Options + software and was able to get them both on a single adapter. The Logi Options + app is quite robust. There, you can fully customize the keyboard (and the mouse). From simple actions to full macros, and that applies to specific applications. Plus, you can also check the battery status and update the firmware. The battery life goes from normal to amazing, depending on the lighting. We are talking about 10 days with lights on and 5 months with it off -nice! To extend battery life, the backlight automatically adjusts to ambient light and turns off after a while. Then, the backlight comes on when you hover your palm over it, which is pretty cool in my opinion. Yes, this device comes with a premium price tag. But based on my experience, from build quality to functionality, it is totally worth it. It will now replace my office’s current setup for the foreseeable future.

I had the keyboard for about 8 months. Today, I noticed that 2 keys were loose and when I tipped over the keyboard, the X and Comma key fell off. Logitech is replacing, but I have to send the old keyboard back before they will send me a new one. Poor Build Quality.

I cannot say enough about this series of Logitech keyboard. There are none better. I have an older version at work, I have the MX Keys mini on my desktop machine and my wife has the MX Keys S. These keyboards give your desk a very sleek and tidy look. There's not a lot of extra plastic around the keys so the footprint is as small as the key area takes up. Wireless connectivity lets you position your keyboard anywhere you want without having to deal with an annoying cable, so it you want to lean back and type with the keyboard in your lap, nothing is stopping you. One of the nice things about this keyboard (and it's predecessors) is the way you can pair it to three different machines, regardless of operating system. This means Windows, macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, iPadOS, or Android. These different systems all have version numbers that will work with the MX Keys, so it's a good idea to check if all your systems will be compatible. Personally, my wife and I use it with Windows 11 and our Android phones and tablets. It's nice to be able to respond to texts on your phone by typing with your MX Keys keyboard. Just hit the easy switch button you've assigned to your phone and start replying to the text. You can assign up to three different systems to this keyboard. They don't have to be different operating systems either, they can all be the same type. This keyboard requires the logi bolt USB receiver, which is included, and comes in the box with the MX Keys S keyboard or keyboard and mouse combo. The bolt can be used to connect up to six devices to one machine. It can also connect via Bluetooth if you prefer. We are using a combination of the two, logi bolt with Windows 11 and Bluetooth with our Android devices. The keys on this keyboard are amazing. Each one has a concave, or dish shaped area in the center of the key to accept your fingertips. It's a very comfortable keyboard to use and it takes minimal keystrokes to fully depress the keys. It has a similar feel to a really nice laptop keyboard, meaning the keystroke is very short. One of my favorite features about this keyboard is the combination of backlighting while still being a wireless device. The smart backlight comes on when your fingers get close to the keys, and automatically turn off after a certain amount of inactivity (which you can choose in the logi Options+ app). This is great for conserving the life of the rechargeable battery. When the battery gets low, just use the included USB cable to charge it back up. I don't know yet how long a charge will last on the MX Keys S, but on my MX Keys mini, I can go several weeks at a time without needing to charge. It has a USB-C charging port and comes with a USB-C cable that's long enough to reach a wall charger or your desktop machine under your desk. There's also a power switch that allows you to turn the keyboard off entirely. So aside from the standard keys, this keyboard comes with a full featured number pad area, full sized arrow keys, and a great set of unique keys across the top that doubles as the function keys. You have backlight brightness keys for brighter and dimmer, a dictation key that will allow you to turn on and use your mic for dictation in text programs, an emoji button that will open your emoji window to choose whatever emoji you want to enter in a text program, a mic mute button, a full set of transport buttons and volume keys. Moving to the right along the top, you have the three easy switch keys that let you choose which device you want to use the keyboard with. Above the number pad there are specific buttons to open the calculator, the snip tool and app menu. At the far right is a lock button to quickly lock your machine when you walk away. If that's not good enough, or you find you don't use specific functions that are assigned to these buttons, you can assign any other app you want to them, this is also done through the logi Options+ app. I really can't imagine that Logitech has left any feature out. And if you come across something that is, chances are that you can assign one of the buttons to do it for you anyway. If you're looking for a great keyboard that's extremely comfortable to use and has options to spare, look no further. Absolutely perfect keyboard for anyone wanting a full sized input device.

Logitech has refined its flagship productivity keyboard, the MX Keys, with a new “S” variant. This new iteration retains many of the key features of the previous generation, while adding a few new things that freshen it up for the future. The packaging is functional and highly recyclable. In the box is the keyboard, the bolt receiver (which replaces the Unifying receiver of the previous generation), and a USB A to C charging cable. I plugged it in to get a good charge on it, and it was ready to go. The charging light slowly pulses while the battery charges, and turns off when fully charged, which is a nice change from the previous generation that leaves the green light on all the time. If the battery gets low it will turn red. It comes paired to the included Bolt receiver (which is replacing the now very old Unifying receiver across the Logitech line). Logitech promises better performance and most importantly a high level of secure encryption between peripherals and the Bolt receiver, and will be welcome to many who have the latest versions of Logitech’s non-gaming mice, as they can now use one receiver for both the keyboard and the mouse. The Bolt receiver is still USB-A, not C, and no adapter is included in the box. At this price point, and now that USB-C is the only option on many laptops, Logitech should include an adapter in the box. You can always pair the keyboard with Bluetooth and avoid dongles entirely, but that reduces some of the features and security. This keyboard, like its predecessor, keeps the unique “dish” shaped keys and excellent butterfly keystroke mechanism that is a hallmark of the MX keys line. It also features a customizable backlight and several function and shortcut keys. I found all of the shortcut keys to be very useful – there are keys for locking your PC (great in a business setting), the Windows calculator, snipping tool, backlight control for the keyboard, etc. If you want to add custom functions you can also do that using the Logi Options+ software. The software also allows you to customize things like the backlight duration, upgrade the firmware, etc. It would be nice if there were a way to save your settings to the keyboard instead of requiring the Options+ software, as many corporate managed devices will not allow the installation of unapproved software, which limits some of the features and customization options of the keyboard. Working with this keyboard is a joy. The keys have a perfect balance of effort and accuracy, you don’t feel like you will accidentally press a key but you also don’t need to mash them to make them register a keystroke. Compared to a cheaper, non-name brand keyboard I have also used, this one is vastly superior. The all black keys and deck of this keyboard keep it classy, while the backlight makes finding your way in the dark easy, especially useful for the shortcut keys which are used less frequently. It has as solid feel and does not flex or creak during use. It does not have any adjustable angle feet on it, so if you prefer to have a more propped up keyboard angle you’ll have to figure something out to prop it up. I didn’t have any problems with the angle it has. In addition to the bolt receiver, this keyboard can pair with devices over Bluetooth, and can support connections on up to 3 devices. Pairing to an iPad was pretty straightforward, requiring me to enter a 6 digit code on the keyboard for extra security during pairing. Connectivity with either Bolt or standard Bluetooth seems very good, with no lag or interference problems during testing. Overall, I am very impressed by the Mx Keys S from Logitech. It has a set of thoughtful and useful shortcut keys, the switch to the Bolt receiver will be welcomed by many, and it has extended connectivity to connect to the multiple devices many people have on their desks. I wrote this entire review on it, and it is performing very well. I do wish Logitech had included a USB A to C adapter for the Bolt receiver in the box, as USB-C is becoming the standard, but that is a minor quibble on an otherwise excellent keyboard. If you are in the market for a premium productivity tool for your home or office, this keyboard is worth the price and stands above many of the cheaper alternatives out there.

The Logi MX Keys S keyboard is a touch-typists dream. And since it’s multi-device and OS compatible including Windows, Mac, Linux, Android, and iOS it’s a reality for everyone. Mine is connected to a M1 Pro MacBook Pro and a Gen 8 iPad but I imagine the setup and user experience is going to be similar when used on other OS devices. Out front, from a Mac-user perspective, this keyboard is an excellent choice over Apple’s non-Touch ID Magic Keyboards in both feel and functionality. The only edge the base Apple keyboard has, perhaps, over the MX Keys S, is that because it’s an Apple product the user doesn’t have to grant security permissions to a 3rd party app, something that always gives me pause. I’ll discuss this and the general setup in more detail, but first a quick description of what this keyboard is about and why it may be the keyboard of your dreams. This is an uncompromising full-size keyboard with number pad in every sense of the word. All the keys are gloriously well spaced; no matter your hand’s size they will feel neither cramped nor lost. And while it’s apparently all ABS plastic it’s a quality, sturdy in-hand feel. The built-in rechargeable batteries put it on the hefty side so I would not say it’s ideal for travel. Description The MX Keys S has all the conventional keys including 12 programmable F-Keys that double as pre-programmed shortcut keys for monitor brightness, volume, emoji menu, dictation, media control. Part of what makes this keyboard special to me is the backlit keys. My aging eyes appreciate this feature above all others. It’s one of the reasons I was drawn to this keyboard. So, of course, there are keys to adjust keyboard illumination. And “auto” illumination feature is also available. Because this is a multi-OS compatible keyboard, Start/Option and Alt/Command are represented, respectively. Mac users will feel at home with this keyboard. The only annoying part of the keyboard layout is the placement of the function key enable button on the right side rather than the last key on the left. As a Mac user that confuses my muscle memory. This is one of a two areas where Mac users take 2nd fiddle to Window. Windows layout rules here with the control key placed where the function key on a Mac keyboard is located. But wait there’s more! Atop the full-size number pad are four more shortcut keys. From left to right: launch calculator, launch screen capture, “look up,” which for me just duplicates the space bar, and put computer to sleep. To the left of these buttons are 3 quick switch buttons to let you switch control of the keyboard to other paired devices instantly. All of these buttons can be reassigned to do other functions in the Logi Options+ software explained below. There are three ways to connect to a computer. From most secure to least: USB-C, Logi Bolt, and plain old Bluetooth. Battery charging shares the USB-C port and the keyboard can charge simultaneously while being used via USB-C in case you forget to charge the batteries. (On a Mac the battery level is available in the Bluetooth menu, either on desktop bar or in the preferences pane if you connect via regular Bluetooth or in the Logi Options+ app if you use Logi Bolt. The keyboard also has a colored light to indicate general charge level). The 2nd area Mac users take 2nd fiddle is with the Included accessories: a USB-A to USB-C cable and USB-A Logi Bolt dongle. I found this to be a “pain point” and extra expense since my MacBook Pro only has USB-C ports. Other Mac users are likely to have this experience too since Apple has been depreciating USB-A for years now. Mac models of the past few years have limited or no USB-A ports. And honestly, given that USB-C is the new universal standard it’s odd the Logi Bolt isn’t USB-C and that a USB-C to USB-C cable isn’t included, even if in addition to a USB-A to USB-C cable given this keyboard premium price. For USB-C only Macs (and presumably other types of OS users too), the Logi Bolt, which encrypts keystrokes end-to-end for enhanced security, works perfectly when attached to a female USB-A to male USB-C dongle connected directly to the Mac. Logitech claims the Logi Bolt can connect through a USB hub, but I had no luck in my attempts. However, to be fair, Logi, in its Logi Bolt white paper, lists specific USB hubs it tested for compatibility, none of which I own. User experience Typing on this keyboard is a joy. It has a graceful and elegant feel and sleek look, something you expect of any premium keyboard but is frequently not delivered. The comfortable angle lends to a correct hand-on-keys position, and the keys have the perfect amount of curvature that cradle fingers rather than trap them. Key travel has a satisfying tactile feel that isn’t overdone. I’m an “OK” touch-typist but this keyboard makes me feel like I’m professional court stenographer. It has improved my accuracy by keeping my fingers from staying square on the keys – kind of like training wheels for fingers. Also of note, this is a fairly quiet keyboard. I haven’t had the keyboard long enough to vouch for Logi’s stated battery life, but it claims with moderate backlighting use expect 10 days of life and with backlighting turned off battery life is in the months. For whatever it’s worth, in the few days I have been using the keyboard my battery life remains at 100% with mostly daytime typing and very little backlighting use. One unheralded feature is that the battery is removable and replaceable. Kudos to Logi for designing this keyboard in a more consumer and environmentally friendly manner rather than permanently sealing the battery, effectively making the keyboard disposable. So while this keyboard is not budget priced, it should last a long time to give value for money. Setup experience including Logi Options+ software Set up is not difficult, though having paired lots of devices in the past few years from various manufacturers, the process felt a bit dated and tedious. A QR code on a manual to eliminate having to type in the setup web address and download location of the Logi Options+ app would be appreciated. At least in my attempts, I could not pair the keyboard using only the Mac’s Bluetooth pref pane. I had to go through Logi’s set up page. The setup process I’ll outline is based on doing so with my M1 MacBook Pro using Mac OS 12.6.5 (Monterey) and then a gen 8 iPad using iOS 16.4.1. It may be different on other OSes or even other Mac OSes. I first paired my Mac. Apple has increasingly “locked down,” parts of the OS over the past years to prevent malicious apps from stealing user data or creating other chaos. As a result, the device owner must now grant permission to install certain apps requesting access to sensitive user information – like keystrokes. The screens asking for this permission are quite ominous, and for good reason. They should be taken seriously. When you set up your MX Keys S on a Mac you will see these popups. Don’t be alarmed, just informed. Here are your installation options. Out of the box the user is offered two different wireless connection instructions on the inside top of the box – standard Bluetooth or the more secure Logi Bolt dongle, described earlier. If you opt for the Logi Bolt install it in an available USB port on your device. After that setup with the Logi Bolt or standard Bluetooth is similar, but not exactly. I won’t get into the nitty gritty, so follow instructions in the box. For either set up the user is asked to confirm the target device’s Bluetooth is on and then head to Logi’s online setup page where a passkey is presented to enter into the keyboard. The keyboard should then be paired. Next I paired my iPad which was simple and straight forward. I just pressed the “2” Easy-Switch key for 3 seconds. It started to flash indicating pairing was available. Then on to my iPad’s Bluetooth settings where I saw the keyboard and pressed the icon to finish the process. I was given a passkey to enter into the keyboard and done. So now I can simply press the “1” Easy Switch key to use my Mac or “2” to use my iPad. There is a total of 3 Easy-Switch keys. After pairing the user is asked to setup a Logi account and download the Logi Options+ software. A Logi account is not required to setup the keyboard or to download or use the software. The Logi Options+ software makes it easier to fully customize the keyboard – program F-keys and key illumination, as well as to identify which device each Easy-Switch key controls. The keyboard and preset shortcut keys will function 100% without installing this software if these are not options that interest you. Logi, on its business site, also offers an “offline” version of Logi Options+ for computers required to be offline. For more information on this version look on Logi’s business support site for “Logi Options+ Offline Installer.” There is a complete explanation of what this version does and does not do. The Logi Options+ software is very simple to use, though not immediately intuitive. The screen shows a picture of the keyboard and its charge level underneath it. No instructions on how to use it. Clicking on the keyboard shows the menu. Why make the user take the effort click on the picture of the keyboard to access the menu? That’s inefficient, especially for a business keyboard. The menu should just appear on the screen. After this click though everything is self-explanatory and easy to customize. Conclusion And that’s the Logi MX Keys S in nutshell. It’s a fantastic choice for anyone desiring a keyboard that improves rather than impedes typing accuracy. It doesn’t hurt that it looks smart too and includes the enhanced security Logi Bolt dongle, even if it is USB-A in a USB-C moving world.

The Logitech MX Keys is a heavy keyboard. It is wireless with backlit lighting. It can support up to three devices. The buttons to switch between devices are located right above the insert, home, and page up keys. They advertise the fluid typing experience that is similar to laptop typing. I agree with this. It feels like my MacBook Pro M1. I normally use mechanical keyboards and this is a welcome change. It is comfortable to use and the feedback is good even though it does not have mechanical switches. For some strange reason, I like the F6 button as an emoji menu. I guess I use emojis often when typing now haha. Another function key is to control the brightness of the backlit lights. So far, I have not found a need to install the software. One less software to install is great in my opinion. In order to connect via Bluetooth, you just have to press and hold one of the three device keys. For example, I wanted to set device 2 as my iPad. I just held the button down on the keyboard and wait for it to blink. My iPad Bluetooth then detects it. It shows a 6-digit code I type on the keyboard to complete the pairing. Sometimes the Numlock is disabled, so use the numbers above the letters and not the numbers on the numpad. To switch back to my desktop, I just press the device 1 button. There are only two ways to connect to this keyboard. Either you use the USB dongle to connect wirelessly to it or Bluetooth. I thought I could use the USB-A to USB-C cable to connect it to the computer, but it is for charging. This is truly a wireless keyboard. It would be nice to have it be able to connect using USB cable but it is no big deal. The battery is removeable and can be recycled but it is not your standard AA or AAA battery. You can remove the three rubber feet behind the keyboard. There you will find 3 screws hidden below a plastic cover. You can puncture it with a small Phillips screwdriver. Overall, this is a nice wireless keyboard. It is comfortable to type on. The USB wireless does not have be line of site. It seems to work with my tower located at the far end of my desk and my secondary monitor in front of it. Being able to use Bluetooth is great because I can connect it to other Bluetooth devices and switch between devices with a press of a button.

This keyboard has a sturdy construction that feels super premium. Before trying it out I was using a Logitech K270 which by comparison feels like it came with you desktop, only it wireless. This MX keyboard has a solid feel, like there is a steel plate underneath to cover. The keys are excellent, I had improved feel and keystroke throughout my work when I tried it out for two 10+ hour work days. I did have a couple problems: like all logitech keyboards I've ever used there were occasional issues with no response or repeated keys I didn't press. These usually occurred when pausing typing (videocall) and picking back up, you need to accept that this is a fact of life with wireless keyboards and be willing to accept that for the flexibility in your WFH setup wireless provides. I also was annoyed that the F1-F12 keys are not function keys by default and I had to find a reddit post in order to know how to Fn+Esc to make them work the way I expect, the way they have for over 30 years. One benefit of this keyboard, like its MX mice cousins, is that it has the agility to connect to multiple devices: you can setup three different devices and you just push a button to switch from work laptop to work desktop to play chromebook. If you install the logitech options app on your machines you also have the ability to seamlessly move from one system to the other and while I've tried and like this with MX mice I've used (and still use) I can't set that software up on my current work machines and so I'm confused as to how it would work and if it's really helpful: Having one keyboard at your desk and being able to seamlessly use it with any equipment (chrome, windows, Mac, up to three devices) really is helpful, and its great to do it with a premium feeling keyboard.

Easiest setup – just plug the receiver into a USB-C port and you are ready. Bluetooth pairing is also very easy, just press one of the Easy-Switch keys to enter pairing mode. Compatible with multiple operating systems. Backlit keyboards are my favorite. As the light dims in my office, the keys are still visible. Proximity sensors detect your hands. It’s magic. I also have the MX Master 3 mouse. With this keyboard and my mouse, I am able to utilize the logic-flow on up to 3 devices. Just press the Easy-Switch number 1, 2 or 3. Logitech says that the battery will last 10 days with backlighting. On my previous version of this keyboard, the battery lasted 15-20 days for me. The included cable charges to a USB-C port and can also be used while you are working. The spacing on the keys is perfect and the number keypad is handy. The volume keys are also very convenient and used a lot. Tip - the “F” keys are set to media by default. As a travel agent, the “F” keys are used as special functions when connected to a GDS (travel booking system). I lost my functionality. But after looking online I found that it will switch back to “F” key functionality of you hit fn + esc. Great news and now it is perfect. Highly recommended. MX Keys keyboards are definitely worth the price.

Excellent Keyboard. I have upgraded from a wired old mac keyboard (non-10 key), but now with the best of both worlds this could be used for both Mac and PC, and can switch from multiple devices. Currently I'm only using the USB receiver. The keyboard sounds are quiet, and the backlighting of the keys are great, not to mention even when hovering your hand over, is when the keys light up; without having to press a key to wake up the keyboard and light up. This is what I find unique. I do work from home, with once a week visits to the office being mandatory. Our workstation is a PC desktop, Windows environment. When I still had the old keyboard and working from home with MS Remote Desktop, I would confuse some keys with option as alt and sometimes quit the session by accident using command q vs option q in the MS Windows WFH (work from home) environment. This wireless (which eliminates my wireless clutter), has both logos on the keys and now I know which is option/start or cmd/alt, etc. It does have some battery right out of the box and I have been using it for a couple of hours now. I will at the end of the day (working) give it a good overnight charge and unplug it the next day. In addition I have installed an app called Logi Options + being Logitech's proprietary software and was able to see the keyboards battery life and customize your keyboard shortcuts, see which computers are paired via bluetooth and what's connected via the usb receiver, and even update the firmware. Logitech's innovative products are surely the true accessories I have confidence and own mostly from computer speakers and accessories as well as keyboards. Its a brand that is a must in my book.

Unboxing this wireless keyboard the first thing I noticed was it came in a pretty compact packaging. I like this. I truly dislike too much packaging making it hard to get to my item and then dealing with so much material in the trash causing waste. The keyboard itself was about the same size as the box it came in. Taking the keyboard out, I was like woah! This thing is weighty. It felt really really solid but at the same time, I was shocked at how thin it was. There is a lip at the top of the keyboard that must house the rechargeable battery but also helps elevate the keyboard to give it a bit of an angle (please see photo). It was perfect for me but maybe not for others. Once placed on most surface, the keyboard stayed in place. The buttons where super quiet and had a real pleasant feel when pressing keys. It wasn't mushy or sloppy. The keyboard also had a backlighting but the keys themselves didn't light up, this would be one of two of my gripes. The other has to do with connection. The keyboard comes with a usb dongle to connect to your computer or you can do it by bluetooth. I noticed that when connected by bluetooth, there was a slight lag. The dongle was faster, so the lag wasn't really noticeable. But when I connected to my tablet via bluetooth, you definitely noticed it. After a few minutes of use, I didn't care that much. It wasn't as if you where typing 5-6 words ahead. All in all, this is one awesome wireless keyboard. I can't recommend it enough. Just super solid.

The Logitech MX Keys S Advanced Wireless Keyboard is a stellar upgrade for both PC and Mac users, showcasing Logitech's commitment to quality and user-centric design. This full-size keyboard, equipped with scissor switches, offers a satisfying typing experience that balances tactile feedback with quiet operation, making it ideal for shared workspaces. The backlit keys are a standout feature, automatically adjusting brightness based on ambient light conditions, which not only enhances usability in various lighting environments but also contributes to battery efficiency. Speaking of battery life, the MX Keys S impresses with its longevity, promising weeks of usage on a single charge, and the inclusion of a USB-C charging port modernizes the device for current tech ecosystems. Connectivity is another strong suit, with seamless wireless integration via Bluetooth or the included Unifying receiver, facilitating easy switching between up to three devices. This flexibility is a boon for multitasking professionals. The keyboard's build quality is robust, boasting a slim, aesthetically pleasing design that complements any desk setup. However, its premium features come at a premium price, which may deter budget-conscious buyers. Nevertheless, for those willing to invest, the MX Keys S delivers an exceptional blend of comfort, functionality, and durability, solidifying its position as a top-tier keyboard for discerning users.

Logitech's wireless keyboard is easy on the fingers and lightweight. I like the look and feel. The backlit LEDs help out during typing and only require a light touch to switch them on. I also like that I can place the keyboard on my lap during marathon writing sessions and pretty much take the keyboard anywhere. Battery life is outstanding and I have yet to run out of battery life during my sessions.
