    Love this keyboard, built in battery, uses a USB C charger. it's expensive but feels very premium. the buttons are soft, but tactile. the lighting is great. The battery life is descent, but since it stays in front of my computer near a plug, it's not a big deal. I love how you can switch between device, I dock my laptop to my work area and sync my keyboard in a single button press. the nob doesn't seem to be too useful. What i like most is the design, the low profile, the feel. What i don't like is it's a bit heavy, but comes with quality. and the battery life is ok. Lastly the price is a bit steep, however the durability seems to be pretty good.

    INTRODUCTION: Logitech Craft Wireless Keyboard sets your desk apart, exuding quality & precision workmanship. My existing keyboard is an Apple Magic Keyboard. I did not think I could ever find a better keyboard, until Logitech engineered Craft. This is truly an amazing piece of engineering! LIKES: 1- Appearance is expensive / premium quality / high end product. See 2) attached photos. 2- Build Quality is top notch. I was shocked at the extreme attention to detail & workmanship built into Craft! Example: The knob, described in Point #4, is made of machined aluminum, not plastic! 3- The keys are honed to a deep cup shape & are a delight to the touch. 4- The prominent, aluminum knob on the back left is programmable through software & is app dependent. By default on my Mac Pro, it adjusts system volume & can control parameters in Word, Excel & many creative applications. 5- Mac & PC friendly. 6- Numeric Pad built-in. 7- Silent, positive action keys. 8- Backlit keys illuminate as your hands approach the keyboard before you actually touch any keys. This helps locate the keys & the effect is beautiful. The backlight also reacts to the light in your space & increases or decreases illumination as ambient lighting changes. 9- 3) Mac, PC, or tablet Device control from this one keyboard by touching 1, 2, or 3 special keys, each with connection indicator lights. 10- The dark gray & aluminum color blends in with any office environment. 11- Extra keys such as monitor brightness, volume up / down, Dashboard, etc. function exactly as OEM keyboard. No lost functionality. 12- Perfect compliment to MX Master 2S Mouse in color, feel, functionality & 3 device control. 13- Logitech App allows many specific tweaks. 14- Long range wireless transmission (over 32 feet). 15- Easily recharge by the included USB type C cable. 16- Caps Lock light. 17- I am using Craft with PowerPlay Gaming Mouse Pad, G903 mouse & G703 mouse & MX Master 2S Mouse. They all work together beautifully & make a killer setup! See 2) attached photos. 18- Heavy, sturdy construction. Weighs 960 grams (2.12 #). Craft sits where placed & does not slide or move around. DISLIKES: 1- Space between "alt opt" and "C" or "V" keys is twice the distance apart compared with an Apple keyboard; thumb & index finger can barely reach these frequently used keys for Copy / Paste. This results in hitting "Command alt" by mistake (then having to repeat the process). 2- Latest Mac Pro required the included Unifying Received USB to connect. Connecting via Bluetooth to Mac Pro failed immediately upon each attempt. Yet, iPad Pro connected via Bluetooth without a hitch. CONCLUSION: This is the heaviest, best built keyboard I have ever seen, much less owned! Craft is the Platinum Standard Wireless Keyboard & earns my HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION!!

    This keyboard is the Bentley of all keyboards. Everything from the packaging to the design of the keyboard. You can tell the engineers and designers took their time to produce a great keyboard. The first thing i notice is that this keyboard is heavier then your usual keyboard at the office or at school. It's 90 grams and it's has an aluminium spine. It feels very sturdy. Another thing i notice is the key shapes are inner oval design and do not pop out like usual desktop keyboard so it makes for easier and faster typing. Usually at work or at school they have the stock keyboards (the ones that come with the computers) and after a while my fingers get tired because i have to press the keys down, its a drag for those long reports or research projects, i don't have that problem with this keyboard because of its low profile keys. The keys also illuminate which is an added surprise! If i put my hand over the key board the keys light up, how cool is that? Logitech calls it "smart illumination." On the top left is the "creative input dial" which is a great feature especially if you download the "Logitech Options software" directly from the logitech website. This input dial has the power to control a lot of applications and as well volume(i use spotify and i can control volume and play/pause). I have microsoft word, excel, and powerpoint and with the input dial you can enlage text, minimize text, with excel you can switch between rows or enlarge/minimize graphs. One thing i was not please with or couldn't figure out is the Multi-device and Multi-OS option. This keyboard only comes with one bluetooth usb and one charging cable(no batteries required it has a built in battery). I have my Imac and PC side by side on my table and it would be cool if i could use this key board to control both operating systems, not at the same time, but "switch" to make more space on my desk, unfortunately i had trouble using this function. The keyboard has 3 keys right next to the num 10 key, these keys are used to switch between these multi devices/multi OS. May be somebody from Logitech can help me with this feature, although i'm not too disappointed because i will mostly use this keyboard with my PC Windows 10. I have an extended mac keyboard that still works great so it's no big deal, i just felt for the price of this keyboard may be they can throw in some extra bluetooth usb's? I don't know just and idea. Overall this is a great keyboard, it's stylish, sleek, modern, and with all the new advancements in technology this is the next stage of keyboards. I am very happy with this keyboard. I will be using this keyboard for those long nights typing up research reports or chatting with friends through Facebook. I would recommend this keyboard!! I'm a college student and i also work in an office setting if that helps.

    the best wireless backlit keyboard

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Disclosure. I am a BestBuy Tech Insider Network member and received the logitech craft keyboard for free in exchange for writing an honest, ubiased review. This review is my personal opinion of the keyboard. What's in the box. Logi craft keyboard (aka logitech), Logitech unifying remote, USB C cable (for charging the keyboard but doesn't seem to work as wired only keyboard). It's only fair that I write this review while using the logitech craft keyboard The first thing that strikes you when about the keyboard (even while it's still in the packaging) is the weight. Open the box and then you are struck with WOW. This is a seriously nice looking keyboard. What distinguishes the logitech craft: 1. the large dial (creative input dial) on the top left 2. that it's bluetooth and logitech unifying compatible 3. it has a backlit keyboard (unique for wireless keyboard) 4. has built in rechareable batteries 5. is compatible with Windows, MacOS and iOS and can works with multiple computers and devices at a time. I'm actually going to start with something that is super important to me. I have wanted a wireless backlit keyboard for a while. So from the start I was already excited. I have taken some photos so you can see how the backlighting looks in the dark. The lights automatically time out when the keyboard is not being used, but light up again even when my hands moved over the keyboard. So it must have some sort of ambient light sensor. You can adjust the brightness of the backlight to suit. Basic setup was straight forward. I used the unifying remote to connect the keyboard to my (Windows) laptop. There is a power switch on the back of the keyboard and it was charged and ready to go out of the box. I also happen to already own a logitech MX mouse (not included, I paid for this a few years ago) and it was simply a case of repairing my mouse with the keyboard receiver. To use the craft dial you need to download logitech options software. Due to some internet issues at my house, this took a little longer than expected. The file is 143mb in size. While the file downloaded, I tested connecting the craft keyboard to my iPaid mini. While not officially supported according to the box, it worked. The keyboard has fast switch keys for this numbered 1, 2 and 3 above the standard insert/home keys in the middle of most keyboards. In my case, I tapped 2 and the in-use light/active light on the 2 button flickers and the entire keyboard backlights pulse. Connecting was simply a matter of going to my iPad, selecting bluetooth and connecting the keyboard. Although there was a security prompt for me to enter a numeric code on the keyboard to verify the connection. Switching back to my laptop was just a case of pressing 1. Then, switching between devices is super fast. Seamlessly fast. Now onto the craft dial. After the logitech options software is all installed, you get to setup and configure the dial. I don't use Adobe Illustrator, etc. I primarily use this with Office Apps and some in-house design software. There's no doubt this keyboard is aimed at the power user designer, illustrator who works across multiple devices. I have a laptop, iPad and access to a mac in the office. A note on the function keys. By default they work as logitech hot keys. That is, mute, lock, adjust backlight brightness, etc. To use them as function keys first and feature keys second, you configure that in the options software. First thing I noticed about the craft dial is that there is an speaker in the keyboard. When you turn the dial on a supported app there is a mechanical click sound. Sort of like a camera shutter sound your phone makes. The screen also shows an On Screen Display (OSD) of what function/feature the dial operates as in the supported app. For example, in a browser - the dial is to quickly change tabs. Which reminds me, the dial also has tactile feedback as you step through. But this is software driven, so you can turn off the step through ratchets in the options software. So if you want a more lloose spin, it can be done. The Logitech Options software comes with some default configurations for various apps. There is some ability to customize the defaults with the app but it's fairly limited. The dial is context aware within an app, but does default to certain behavior. For example, in PowerPpint, for a reason that's not clear to me, the default configuration is to change themes which is the least likely thing you would do on a regular basis by default. But once you start clicking around and using PowerPoint, the dial becomes much more useful. For example, if you click on an object (with your mouse) - the craft dial makes it a smoother and more accurate to reszie the object, rotate, etc. Font sizing, aligning text are other functions that are faster and easier with the dial - but you do need to work in combination with the mouse (i.e. select with the mouse). What would make the dial more useful is if you could cycle through the OSD app aware options by pressing the dial (as it works as a button too). So for example, if you selected an object - resize with the dial, click to switch to rotate, then rotate with the dial. Right now, you need to switch between options by selecting the correct button or anchor point with your mouse first. In a browser, the dial is great, as you can switch between tabs. I am not sure if it's a bug or a feature (there are no real instructions in the box or online). But if you have the OSD up and slightly tap the craft dial, it lets you select the next OSD menu. It's a little bit haphazard and your mileage may vary, but does mean you can do a few things without touching the mouse. The ability to tweak dial settings is available. This seems to have mixed results and has limited sophistication. For the supported apps from the options software, you can change the some parts of default settings but the options are basic i.e. a keyboard shortcut, or standard windows volume controls and you can't tweak app context aware settings. The sophisticated contextual options don't seem to be supported for editing. In my preferred editing software (an in-house tool) I was able to set the craft dial for zoom in and zoom out by mapping left and right dial turns to keyboard shortcuts. But there was no abiliy to build sophistcated custom integrations for various menus. Hopefully this ability comes in time. Or Logitech releases a community driven app profiles setting. In general use, that is, where you are not using the dial in a supported app. It can be programmed to perform a more operating generic function. The default setting is volume. Although I disabled this, as I kept bumping the dial when I used the escape key. So I changed it so a press on the button is mute and unmute, and a pressed turn is volume. The fact that you can elect to only use the dial in specific apps means you can be as flexible as you want on where and when the dial is active. Outside of the dial. The keyboard is pleasing to type on. It has a laptop style chiclet keyboard, which has the right amount of key depth/movement to be comfotable. I can't comment on battery life as haven't got to that point yet. It is worth noting the height/tilt of the keyboard cannot be adjusted, it's fixed by what I assume is the battery bank and the keyboard is veryh low profile. I do wish the keyboard came bundled with a nice equivalent build quality scale mouse. My old logitech MX mouse looks particular dated next the craft. I would absolutely buy this keyboard and recommend it to a friend. It is also going to be my daily device. addendum The craft keyboard doesn't claim iOS support out of the box, this was me just trying the keyboard. the CMD-H key brings you to home on an iOS device and you can use your keyboard to enter an unlock password. I need to play with it more on my iPad to see what I can do aside from just type long emails. Also - all typos, spelling mistakes, etc. in the above are my fault and not the keyboards!

    Awesome Keyboard with Nice New Features

    The new Logitech Craft keyboard is a super keyboard for the creative user. Anyone who utilizes apps such as Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, or Microsoft Excel and Word (to name a few) will really enjoy the added utility, style and function of this keyboard. The feature that stands out the most with this keyboard is the dial at the top left. They call it the “crown” and depending on which application you are working with, it has different built-in functions. For example, if you’re using Adobe Illustrator, you can use it to manipulate a whole host of functions from changing stroke weight to zooming in and out to undoing and redoing. It's all done by touching, pressing and/or rotating the wheel. If you are a novice, this keyboard would be a great tool to help you get started with complicated software such as the Adobe suite of apps. For the seasoned user, it will take some getting used to as far as teaching yourself a new way to do things. Basically, it gives the user the ability to utilize both hands while working to speed things along. The build quality seems to be excellent. It is a combination of aluminum and plastic and feels really sturdy. It is quite weighty for a keyboard, weighing in at over two pounds. It is 17 inches long and has a full number pad on the right side. The keys are backlit when you have your hands nearby, making low light typing much easier. They feel fantastic to type on. They sound good and have just the right amount of bounce back when you press them. I’m almost giddy typing on them. To make full use of the features, there is a free download from their website that downloaded and installed super quickly. The app allows you to use the custom crown features with the select apps that you have installed on your rig. The Craft is a wireless keyboard which can connect to your pc via Bluetooth or through the included Logitech unifying dongle. The keyboard is supposed to last a week before needing to be recharged although I can’t confirm that because I haven’t had mine that long. Also, the keyboard and accompanying software download can be used on either a Windows pc or MacOS. The Craft keyboard is low profile. The back is raised ever so slightly and the front is pretty much unraised. The low profile is good unless you have a desk with a keyboard tray that has a built-in (for lack of a better word) “wrist rester.” With the Logitech Craft keyboard, a workstation with a “wrist rester” causes the keyboard to be too low and awkward to use. I haven’t found a good solution to this problem as of yet. I’ve tried setting the keyboard on top of the box that it came in, but that raises it up a bit too high. Optimally it needs to be raised up about a half inch, and the box raises it up 13/16 of an inch. It’s comfortable if I place it on top of my desk, but then my mouse is still in the desk’s keyboard tray and that is awkward as well, plus I like to have room on my desk to write and now the keyboard is there. I suppose that modern workspaces mostly don’t use the hidden keyboard tray in favor of a more minimalist look. This keyboard is definitely made for that style. It is meant to sit atop the desk, not below. And why not? It is nice to look at! All in all, even if you don’t use any of the apps that this keyboard is meant to enhance, it is still worth the purchase. I like it that much! The style, feel and function are all first rate. I am loving mine and would highly recommend it to anyone.

    The best keyboard I've ever used

    Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is by far the best keyboard I've ever had the pleasure of typing on in my life. While it comes with a hefty price tag, if you do a lot of typing, you won't regret your decision. Just don't buy it for the input dial which is remarkably lackluster, however it isn't the hardware that is lacking, rather the software, so it is entirely possible for future updates. Build Quality: The hardware is hands down top notch. It has a solid feel to it, and there is no noticeable creaking or flex whatsoever undoubtedly due to the metal skeleton housed inside. While it does have a plastic exterior, in no way does it feel any less premium than the Apple keyboard for example. It has a good heavy weight to it as well, and paired with the rubber feet on the bottom which plant it firmly in place, it does not shift, slide, or move from where you put it unless you specifically move it. Typing: Typing on it is very nice. The keys have a medium throw to them, they are very smooth, and have the slightest of sound when hit, not enough to be annoying, but just enough to get a feel for your typing pace if that makes sense. The spacing is perfect, and they layout is exactly as it should be with one little quirk. If you're going back and forth between a Mac and a PC with a Mac keyboard usually the command key is mapped to the Windows key on a PC. Here however, the command key is the alt key on a PC, and the alt/opt key is the Windows key on the PC. So switching back and forth takes a little bit of adjusting as those keys have very different functions. I don't consider this a bad setup, but it does take some adjusting and you will have a bunch of accidental start menu hits and select all commands happening, so be advised. Otherwise, typing is great on both platforms and switching between them is seamless. Features: Let me get the obvious one out of the way, the creative input dial. Now I have read and watched plenty of reviews where people gush over it, but personally I think it is almost unusable. Coming from a Griffin PowerMate which is an external control knob with infinite customizability, the one on the keyboard was a massive let down and it is almost the singular reason for not giving the device a full five stars (the other being Easy Switch). Now the issue is purely software, so they have the opportunity to make it great, but as it stands, it is so incredibly limited I just don't even use it at all. There are other features which I love. It has a great battery life, and it is recharged using a USB-C cable, and the keyboard works fine while charging whether off an external power source or when connected to a computer. I really, really love the way that backlighting is handled. Typically keyboards don't light up until you touch them, and if it is dark, you're likely going to end up hitting a key you don't want. With this one it lights up as your hands approach it, and it is as cool as it sounds. You can pair it to three different devices, and switching between them is as simple as pressing a button. It has no problem pairing, and I found this to be very useful allowing me to toggle between devices. There is a feature I wanted to love, but unfortunately it is just too glitchy, that being Easy Switch. I also have the MX Master 2s, and one of the things you can do with this mouse and keyboard when paired to more than one machine is to configure it so you can move your mouse to the edge of your screen and just keep moving and it will show up on the other computer, switching the keyboard control over as well. For years we've had PC software that allowed features like this, namely Synergy and I was hoping for something along these lines here but it is just too buggy. Pairing is erratic, connections are often dropped and I just can't get it to reliably work so I don't bother. Between this and the creative input knob's uselessness, I'd dock 2 stars but honestly the quality and base functionality of the keyboard itself is just so good I can't bring myself to give it less than 4. Value: This is a pretty subjective thing, if you type a lot and have had a hard time finding a good solid keyboard for Windows (Apple basically has their end covered), which can work cross platform, something like this is a godsend. Yeah it is pricey, but as someone who types for a living, for me personally at least this keyboard *is IT* and worth every penny. If you're concerned about the price tag, and the input dial is important to you, I'd say you'll be better off with some other keyboard and an external dial like the Griffin.

    I was looking for a keyboard that was aesthetically nice looking yet extremely functional. This keyboard is it. The typing experience on it is first rate. Unlike the apple Bluetooth keyboards, there is just the right amount of key travel. Also, using the device with different computers is great. Pairing it is a breeze and it works really well. Overall, it's well worth the price.

    I love the Logitech Craft Keyboard! I'm kind of a keyboard snob. I've tried a lot of different keyboards over the years, but most fall way short of being perfect. Sometimes it's the key press feel, sometimes it's the key layout, sometimes it's the lack of important keys, but they all lack something. Until now. Prior to the Craft, my favorite keyboards were the Logitech K800 and the Logitech K780. The K800 was the best for its time... its strengths were that it is full size, has all the important keys, has backlit keys, and is rechargeable. What it doesn't have is support for connecting to multiple devices. Enter the K780. It has a nice feel, connects to up 3 devices and effortlessly switches between them either by pressing a button or by automatically staying with a Flow mouse like the Logitech MX Master 2S. Very good! But the K780 is a miniature keyboard missing some keys and having others in awkward non-standard places. Also, no backlit keys and uses batteries instead of being rechargeable. Lastly, it uses the F1, F2, and F3 keys to set which device it's connected to. Overall, the K780 is very nice, but I was hoping it would be a multi-device version of the K800, and from this standpoint the K780 falls short. But the Craft actually does it! It's a full-size keyboard, adds extra keys to set which device it connects to, has backlit keys, is rechargeable, and the key presses have a good feel to them. I haven't even used the dial (they call it a crown) for anything yet. Right now I think the ONLY two things I don't like about the Craft are: A) No numlock LED. To be fair, neither the K800 nor the K780 have numlock keys. B) The price. I would have never tried this keyboard at the normal price. At $30 off on sale, it was still very pricey, but I thought I'd give it a shot and return it if it didn't meet my expectations. I'm keeping it! And I may even buy another one (I have a lot of computers). One last thing. I didn't find anyplace where instructions were given on how to enable Flow for the keyboard so that the keyboard would automatically stay with a Flow mouse as it changes which device it's controlling. Playing around with the Logitech Options software I figured it out, and it really was simple, but it didn't seem simple when I didn't know what I was looking for. It's under the mouse Flow options, not under keyboard options. Overall, this is the best keyboard I've ever had. If I figure out a use for the dial it'll be even better.

    Solid keyboard with number buttons a plus. Not the cheapest option compared to other keyboards, but you get what you pay for with this product. The keyboard looks thin but is actually quite heavy which I like. It does not slip around on work surface when used. The surface, texture and shape of the keys feel great and respond very well. The keys are also backlit which can be adjusted to user brightness preferences. The rotary knob (called the crown) is a unique feature that can be customized for different applications. The software for keyboard customization is also user friendly. I have seen other reviews noting no ability to adjust keyboard height and angle. Considering the engineering that went into this product, I agree that adjustment would be nice (especially for the price), but the ergonomics of this product feels good to me as-is.

    The Logitech Craft is an excellent keyboard with excellent travel and deep enough grooves that make typing a easy and fun. I pair it with my 2019MBP with Butterfly switches and its night and day in comparison. The only thing I do regret is I don't use the switch/ wheel as often as I thought I would. If you aren't scrubbing through video timelines or have specific tasks set in mind, I'd recommend the Logitech MXKeys instead. Half the price and the same pros of having the craft keyboard. I actually got the Craft on sale for about $130 which is only $30 more than the MXKeys MSRP. Pros: USB-C Charging, Backlit with Proximity Sensors, Almost Perfect Travel Cons: Can't think of any besides having to find a specific use for the wheel aside from "Volume Control"

    The Craft keyboard has the very best feel and look of any keyboard that I have ever used but it's also the most expensive keyboard that I have owned. It's beautifully made. The keyboard offers customization from both the input dial and the Logitech keyboard software. I really like the fact that I can switch between my computers with the 3 different Bluetooth input keys. I use Mac computers for Photoshop and I was mostly interested in the programable setups for Adobe Creative Suite. Unfortunately, I think that the Logitech Mac keyboard software doesn't work as well as I would have hoped. Some reviews say that it works better with Windows. I can't imagine a better keyboard for hours of typing but the creative programable feature for creative software on a Mac is not yet up to standards.

    Excellent keyboard, not so at completely wireless

    I use this with a 2018 MacBook Pro, older Mac Mini, and an iPad Pro. From a typing and keyboard view, this is a great keyboard: solid and consistent key press, feels great to use, not overly noisy. The keyboard functionality is absolutely 5 star. For the cost and quality of everything else about the keyboard, the battery is simply a let down. The Craft Keyboard may not get through the week completely wirelessly before begging for a charge. In my case I got tired of frequently pluging in and out the charging cable, and now leave it all the time. Unfortunately for some odd reason Logitech has it setup that when the charging cable is plugged in, the keyboard back lighting stays on. So if you leave the keyboard charging over night, the room is lit from the back lighting - my office now always has a dim glow (back lighting) at night. The charging cable is USB-C, but most of Logitech's other wireless devices like their new MX Master 2S Mouse (nice compliment to the Craft Keyboard) is not, so you have to have two cables at the ready (no comparison in the Craft Keyboard battery vs MX Master 2S Mouse battery - days on a charge vs 2 months). Like the Matis Keyboard I use to use as a primary keyboard, the Craft Keyboard supports multiple paired devices (3). The bluetooth works great with all except my 2018 MacBook Pro. While I can setup bluetooth with the MBP, it would loose connection sporadically. I suspect it's more an issue with 2018 (maybe back to 2016) MacBook Pro than the keyboard as my Matis keyboard occasionally exhibited repeating characters when I got the 2018 MBP, which doesn't happen on my Mac Mini or iPad, nor the 2013 MBP I replaced. So I'm using the included Logitech Unifying Receiver, which required another USB port (so between my wireless Logitech Mouse and Craft Keyboard I'm using 3 USB ports - unifying receiver, USB to USB-C charging cable for the keyboard, USB to micro USB charging cable for the mouse - which is coiled up behind the monitor most of the time). The only issue with using the unifying receiver is I have to carry an extra unifying receiver and USB-C to A adaptor when I want to take the MacBook Pro and Craft Keyboard off the desk, or setup the keyboard as bluetooth for when I'm off-desk mode. If you are going to use the keyboard truly wireless, I'd suggest something like the Matis wireless keyboard - you'll have to ask yourself "how do I charge this thing?" because you won't do it often - they literally go 6+ months or 1 month (non-backlit vs backlit). If having a cable attached at least once a week isn't a big deal, the Craft Keyboard is tough to beat.

    The best keyboard - but a price to match

    I'm typing my review on this keyboard which I've now had for several weeks. It is the best keyboard that I've ever had (and there's been plenty). I am not one of the creative types that the "craft" keyboard is really made/marketed for but I do a lot of typing - and after years of using/abusing my last keyboard, I was looking for something nice to go with my new MacMini. I was originally put off by the (very, very) high price tag but I wasn't in love with Apple's keyboard so I decided to give this a try - and frankly, I figured that I would be returning it as unjustifiably expensive. Needless to say that didn't happen. Price aside (which you really can't put aside given how much more expensive it is than other alternatives), the keys are great. Its not quite the feed back of a mechanical keyboard - but its close and is not nearly as loud or cumbersome. The backlight is a just right but you can turn it off if you don't like it. It can be charged over USBC, which is real nice plus if you've taken the dive into those cables and don't want to burden yourself with others (notably, the charing cable that comes with it is USB-A to USB-C, but I just use a regular USBC cable instead). You can hook it up to three different computers and switch between layouts - very handy if you use virtualization software for different operating systems (or have multiple computers). As for the "Crown" that is the main feature; I wish I had the talent to use it for something artsy but since I don't, I love that I can customize it to do other things. Personally, I use it for volume and for switching desktops but there are options to use it for specific features of normal office-type programs like Word or Acrobat. One thing to keep in mind though, is that the angle/height of the keyboard is not adjustable. I thought that this would be a problem for me but I have really grown to like the feel. I get the high-end ascetic that Logitech was going for with it (the materials really do seem almost luxurious for a keyboard) but an angle adjustment probably should be available, given the cost. All in all, I am very happy with the purchase - and as long as it lasts me as long as my last Logitech keyboard, it will be worth the investment. If I could give it 4.5 stars I would because of the price but since that's not possible, I decided to go with 5 stars because if you can get by the price, the build quality is 5 star.

    Mixed Feelings

    Ok, first, let me just say I LOVE how this keyboard looks and feels. The illuminated keys and variable dimmable options are AWESOME! Typing on this keyboard is superb!! Quick responding keys and smooth response. Much quieter than even typing on my laptop keyboard. Makes typing "FUN". The CRAFT KNOB is a really nice touch and has improved workflow in most cases. Here is where I have some mixed feelings. I'm a photographer and mostly just use Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom. The creative dial is great with the preset options provided for each tool selected in these applications. The options menu is basic at best. There are some functions say in the brush tool that I don't use. I have to "tab" through these when I accidentally activate the knob. I wish there was a way to edit these options and hope this is just a software update that can address this. Second, I use this keyboard daily!! 8 Hours easily performing edits and corrections to photos. The battery life does not last as long as estimated. I simply plug it in and we are on the go again. I would not mind this but the reminder that your battery is critically low is at 5%!! There is no way to edit this option to say a 25% warning. Again, hope this is something a software or firmware update can address. I'm keeping this keyboard as I LOVE the freedom of being cable free and mobility of this keyboard. I'll be glad to update this when the next software update comes out if there are any improvements. Try it out and see if this works for you. It has provided an improved workflow as is so I am keeping it.

    I love the keyboard for how heavy and solid it feels. Logitech needs to have more options for controls of the dial though. Price is a little steep too.

    Logitech has great keyboards in its lineup and this one is no exception. The keyboard's software is very easy to use and will have you customizing in minutes. Profiles exist for a variety of commonly used software [Word/Excel/Chrome/VLC] which make great use of the dial and shortcut buttons. The keyboard is backlit which is great for a variety of lighting scenarios. The keys feel really smooth and are significantly quiet. This being said, there are features that I feel are missing on this keyboard. The keyboard is very slim and low profile and I wished it had legs to tilt the keyboard at a more comfortable typing angle. This is such a basic feature that even 12.00 dollars keyboard have nowadays. It does not have a wrist rest. I suppose to keep the keyboard looking sexy and slim, the engineers axed the wrist rest which should been built or at least something that could have been added or removed at any time. I ended purchasing a wrist rest support and I feel like it saved me from returning this. The battery life is very good [I charge it once every 2.5 weeks]. I enjoy that it supports USB dongle use and BT which makes this great to toggle between main PC and Smartphone. Last ruffle in my opinion is the price as this is certainly not an inexpensive keyboard.

    My favorite keyboard ever. It’s wireless and low profile and not tkl. And yes I do game on it just fine. Gaming does kill the battery faster. Much faster than normal use but a charging cable is always close by so no big deal. I switch between devices easily. A windows desktop pc, MacBook Pro in closed lid mode 24/7, and my iPad Pro 11. I was in search of a proper keyboard that could switch between devices that had a backlight and this was it. The price is up there but after the initial sticker shock I don’t think of it anymore. Key travel is fine and typing is comfortable if you need to go a few hours or all day. I love that the finish matches my mx master 2s mouse. The wheel is cool but I find myself rarely using it. It’s nice to have though. The backlight isn’t always on to save battery. It detects when your hands are above it and knows when to light up. Technology...

    A great keyboard but price isn't very justified.

    I primarily use this keyboard for illustrator, photoshop and indesign. The dial is a cool feature but not as useful as I thought. Aside from the dial, the fact that it's a backlit wireless keyboard with comfortable typing is awesome. However, I do think that the price should be lower.

    A very solid keyboard, keys dont have gaps for dust to build up into, and nice backlight. On the downside, needs to be charged more frequently than others, not adjustable height/angle, havent really found a lot of uses for the knob, and pretty expensive.

    It's solid, heavy, well built, and its not cheap. (if you are looking for same quality, wireless, back-light, and functionality for under $199, good luck). We use it as a coffee table keyboard with home theater/PC where back-light is at it's best in a darkened room. We are looking forward to future software updates that will expand on the Craft's functionality with other PC apps. Would buy again.
