Logitech MX Keys Mini Wireless Illuminated Keyboard - Pale Grey

This is the best keyboard of its kind. I highly recommend it, as well as purchasing it from PBTech. It arrived within only a couple of days. The keyboard is rechargeable. It is compact, so less movement of the arms is required and the mouse doesn’t have to be positioned too far (since keyboard takes up less space). You can turn off the light to use less of the power (so lasts longer between charges). The grey is a nice soft colour that you don’t get tired of and blends in well. The connection via bluetooth is reliable, I’ve had no issues connecting to both my mac mini and my work laptop (Windows Surface).

For the past year, i've been using a mini clicky keyboard i bought from mighty-ape. But recently ive been converted to more of a minimalist. This keyboard is small and comfortable with the indented surface in the keys. It feels structually secure with a bit of weight to it, and i do prefer it to the Apple magic keyboard. It also has sensors which turn on the back lighting when it senses your hands. The one thing that stopped me from giving this a 5 was the fact that the backlighting keeps turning off, although this probably is a precaution to save battery it also just annoys the daylights out of me at night time when i'm writing essays or working in general. Otherwise ever

The device itself is good as most Logitech products. Bought it as a replacement for my MX KEYS (big one) in those cases when I do not need a numeric pad section (will try to use a separate numeric pad on the left to improve ergonomics).The bummer is - I have a lot of Unifying dongles around my home and office and MX KEYS are working perfectly with them. I could not imaging that the MINI version would not support it (though, yeah, if you read the specs carefully, you will see that). It is even worse - the MINI does not support an older BT dongles that works perfectly with the latest Apple Keys and Mouse 2.That is nonsense that similarly branded and looking products would be incompatible in terms of dongles. What is your goal, Logitech?Now I have to place another ... MoreThe device itself is good as most Logitech products.

More premium than the MK240 combo

Heads up: This does NOT use a unifying receiver. Been a fan of numberpad-less keyboards, and coming from the MK240, it's much more heavier than it's lightweight plastic shell counterpart due to it's battery. Keyboard illumination is great, makes using the keyboard in low-light or night time much easier. Sliding power switch on the top of the keyboard is easily accessible to turn it off on the go. No need to flip the keyboard over to reach the power switch. Instructions provide a guide how to replace the LiPo battery. Points for repairability! No latency experienced with bluetooth, though I've only played Roblox with it. Oh - and no flimsy keyboard legs they pop off and break! I thought this'd be a waste of my money due to it's cost, but the quality of this keyboard ... MoreHeads up: This does NOT use a unifying receiver.

The best compact keyboard. Period.

I honestly think this is the best compact keyboard ever. I bought it to replace my K380 which still works great but I just wanted something compact and that is backlit. It’s either this or the Satechi X3. Fortunately, the X3 was out of stock that day and I got this. I wanted the Mac version but realised it only came in silver with white key-caps colour so I got this graphite colour. I also love how it automatically triggers the backlight when it feels a bit of motion/vibration even before you press anything and it’s really dark. 2 reasons why I give it 4 stars:1.) that incompatibility with Unifying adapter I use for my Logitech mouse. This one requires the Bolt adapter which isn’t even on sale yet. Bluetooth connection is great but there are times when I reboot my ... MoreI honestly think this is the best compact keyboard ever.

I also couldn’t use it wired so basically it’s just bluetooth-only keyboard right now.2.) the price is just crazy expensive

The perfect keyboard for me.

Absolutely love the MX Keys Mini. I was previously using an apple keyboard but there wasn’t much key travel or tactility. This keyboard is the sweet spot for me, it doesn’t have the really long key travel like mechanical keyboards but just enough to be able to comfortably type. It’s very convenient to be able to switch between 3 devices with a tap of a button. I usually have the iPad setup beside my computer so this makes it so easy. Would highly recommend pairing this keyboard with an MX Master 3 Mouse for the perfect combo.

Very nice feeling and great connectivity

Possibly the best keyboard in this price range. I have the full size and now the mini. The only drawback is they do not have height/tilt adjustment, which is a problem for some users. I find flatter ones comfortable so this OK for me, but my wife wants me to make a support. I can see many people on etsy making these, so there must be a demand/need. Apart from that, great connectivity, no need for silly dongles, connect 3 devices and switch between them with ease. Battery life great and rechargable with USB-C too

What a shame... Last Logitech keyboard I buy

As a long time user of the full size mx keys I thought I would try the mini as I don't really use the num pad all that much, also it's a bit of a strain reaching over to use the mouse on an angle over long periods of time.I only just found out about the mini and went straight out to purchase it. Initial impression is good, feels the same as the mx keys but smaller exactly what I wanted but then I noticed the issues.I can not understand why and what logitech has done, They have removed a lot of mac centric and other useful keys.* Launchpad* Mission control* Screen Brightness up* Screen Brightness down* Next Track* Previous TrackBeen replaced by 3 bluetooth switching keys, dictation, emoji and screen shot.Bluetooth pairing could of been handled the ... MoreAs a long time user of the full size mx keys I thought I would try the mini as I don't really use the num pad all that much, also it's a bit of a strain reaching over to use the mouse on an angle over long periods of time.I only just found out about the mini and went straight out to purchase it.

One button to switch between multiple devices, such a dumb idea to replace 3 useful keys for that simple function.Emoji and dictation keys, are you serious...I have read that you can remap the keys, excellent, well unfortunately logitech has dropped support for the os I am running. I am not about to update my whole computer and risk breaking all my other apps just because logitech thinks an emoji and dictation key is a better use of them. This is poor product development.The other pitfalls* Does not ship with the new receiver for their new encrypted protocol "bolt". You will have to purchase this separately, such a scam.* Keyboard will not work in wired modeI wanted to stick with logitech as I have stood by them in the past for many of their products. This is a turning point for me. Wasted opportunity to capitalise on and refine an existing product. I am done with their keyboard range.I am returning for a refund.Going to try keychron k3v2, has everything the og mx keys has with no stupid options app to make it work out the box.

compact and pretty

This little keyboard is neat, I love being able to get my mouse nice and close to it. Being Mac compatible made it very easy to set up, I already have an MX Master mouse (which I truly love). It's got some cool customisations available as well. Being pink is nice but fluff.It is still new to me, so I've only charged it once. I feel like the battery longevity is good so far.My only real criticism, is that it feels crammed up in comparison to my previous ergonomically shaped keyboard. The old one was a hassle because it connected with a dongle, requiring an adaptor to use with my Mac. I'd replace this one in a heartbeat to have the comfort of a curvy keyboard, if they came with the convenience of wireless. This one would be great if you have to sit very close to a ... MoreThis little keyboard is neat, I love being able to get my mouse nice and close to it.
