Customer Ratings & Reviews

The keyboard is quite clean and nice to type on. However, the keyboard backlight isn't the best. It isn't a defect but just a less-than-ideal feature. I wish the light was able to stay on at all times.

Very good product very convenient easy to use I recommend

This keyboard has a very high quality - solid build. It's weighty so it doesn't move around when you type. Typing feels better than the regular Apple Magic keyboards as there is a little more travel and solidness when you type vs the standard apple keyboard or other membrane type keyboards - kinda similar to a mechanical keyboard but without the need for that much actuation and quieter. Held charge well (even leaving it on) and was easy to pair to Apple M1 macbook pro and air. Only things keeping this from being perfect: 1) angle of the keyboard isn't adjustable - there's no lever to raise or lower the angle 2) its larger than the standard apple keyboard with num pad 3) it doesn't connect to macbook till a few seconds after you login - ie you can't use it to type in your password when turning on or waking the macbook.

The MX (Master) series from Logitech includes premium keyboards and mouse oriented for work applications. It works best when used with a mouse from the MX series to take full advantage of the Flow software when used with two or three computers at the same time. While all the keyboards in the series works with Mac, this is the first that's specifically targeted for macs. The main differences are the mac-only keyboard layout and 'Space Gray' finish. Otherwise it's functionally identical to the regular MX Series keyboard. Opening the packaging for the first time feels different: There is no plastic in the packaging, and the keyboard is wrapped in gift tissue paper. Very nice that they're mindful of not adding unnecessary plastic. There's also an USB-C to USB-C cable and an USB adapter, that for some reason it's USB-A. The keyboard layout is arranged similarly to Apple full-size keyboards. The keyboard is all plastic, the 'Space Gray' finish is actually painted plastic. It does look great and had to double-take. It looks like aluminum but it's not. The layout uses 'island' keys that feel similar to a laptop keyboard: The keys are slightly separated, with a limited travel compared to mechanical keys, but much better than Apple's laptop keyboards. The keys are also concave, which I really like. It's not indented like older keyboards. It has a circular 'bowl' on the center of the keys that helps with touch typing. Backlight: Every key, including function keys are backlit. The backlight has 7 levels that are controlled via Fn keys. The keyboard includes a 'proximity sensor' so the light turns on when hands approach the keyboard (before touching it), and turn off soon after. It should also adjust intensity based on ambient light although I did not notice the difference. Logitech sells an optional wrist pad designed specifically for this keyboard. I have no idea why they sell it separately, not part of the keyboard. The keyboard charges a built-in battery via the USB-C port. Based on previous experience with other Logitech keyboards, it should last months without the backlight, but with the backlight I noticed the battery lost about 30% in a week. Connectivity: It can either use the Logitech unifying USB receiver, or it supports Bluetooth 5.0 LE. The Unifying receiver can connect to up to 6 devices simultaneously, like other Logitech keyboards and mouse. The connection via the USB receiver is extremely reliable, and one receiver works with both keyboard and mouse. I've used these for years on previous keyboards. The keyboard has three buttons to switch devices it connects to, or if using a compatible Logitech mouse, enable Flow to seamlessly switch between devices. This keyboard supports flow when used with the Logitech MX Vertical mouse, and it works between macOS and Windows 10. It requires Wi-Fi connection between the two or three computers for Flow to work. If using Linux, Android or iOS, it has to be switched via dedicated keys (On top of the control keys). The software is 'Logitech Flow' and it's available through Logitech (for free, with no registration). It also checks firmware on the keyboard, and other fine-tuning settings. It's not available through Apple's App Store. The software also bundles the 'Logitech Unifying' software that can be used to pair and unpair any compatible mouse or keyboard to any Unifying Receiver. When connected via the receiver, the computer detects the keyboard (and mouse) as USB devices. Things that I did not like upon using this otherwise excellent keyboard: - There are no height adjustment tabs on the base of the keyboard. - The keyboard is all plastic. It looks like Apple's Aluminum keyboards though. - The USB-C port of the back of the keyboard is used only for charging. Unlike the MX mouse on the same series, the USB-C port cannot be used as an USB keyboard (Although the wireless receiver does that). - This might be an Apple problem, but if the boot drive on the mac is encrypted (As it should be), this keyboard does not work until the initial password is set, when connected via Bluetooth. This is because macOS File Vault does not enable the Bluetooth driver until after macOS boots. To compound the problem, the USB-C connector on the keyboard does not work except for charging it so File Vault won't work with it via USB. Connecting via the unifying receiver works, but the receiver is USB-A, and it needs to be connected either through a dock or an adapter (dongle). So much for 'Designed for Mac'. - Keycaps are not removable, so it makes it hard to clean. To be fair, modern Apple keyboards are also impossible to fix, but having used mechanical keyboards in the past in which keycaps are made to be easily removed, this is a slight drawback to me. Also note that if one of the computers is connected via VPN, the 'Logitech Flow' software might not work (depending on the VPN settings), because it needs network connectivity between both computers. Overall, it's an excellent keyboard that I thoroughly enjoy. Currently using it with both my personal and work MacBook at home, except for the slight annoyance when the computer boots, which I'll solve by having both computers use Unifying receivers.

Awesome keyboard, the backlighting is awesome if you like to work in a dark room or at night. The hot swapping between different devices is awesome and the software is great too. The new logi options+ software you can reprogram keys and I was able to make one so it if I highlight text and hit the eject button (who needs to eject anymore?) it will open up a ui with an integration to chat GPT. It's made rephrasing emails and communications sooooo easy. The keys feel good, I like the weight of it too. It stays planted. I don't know why, but when something has a good weight it feels higher quality to me. Considering I have hammered on this for a year or two now. It's a good keyboard and isn't too loud. If you like the mechanical style where you can wake the dead, this one is whisper quiet and I do tend to mash a bit. Issues though, the darn keyboard lights up randomly and all night will turn on and off lighting up my room. I couldn't find any solutions to this, but found If it is doing it that I need to just pick it up and shake it. My thought is maybe a key or something is getting stuck causing it to think it's being used. Outside of that battery life is lower than I would have guessed. I typically charge it once a a week if I am using the backlighting.

I really love the MX Keys keyboard. It has Mac-specific Option and Command keys, and it's incredibly comfortable for someone like me who spends the majority of my day typing. It's at exactly the right angle for comfortable typing, and the key travel and feel of the keys is just right. The automatic backlight works really well, and I have been pleasantly surprised that I've only had to recharge it once since I got it about 2 weeks ago. I have had a little trouble with some latency issues, whether I use the dongle or Bluetooth for connection, but I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software about a week ago, and that seems to have permanently fixed it. Then again, I've only been using a Mac for about 6 months, so it could have been something I was doing wrong. In any case, it works great now, both with the dongle and with Bluetooth. All in all, I would definitely purchase it again if I had it to do over.

Part of me hates giving this keyboard 4 stars. It’s truly the best in almost every possible way. I replaced an Apple Magic Keyboard with Touch ID with this, and it’s truly superior. My only minor gripe is that you can’t control how long the backlight stays on when you stop typing or move your hands away. I get that it would be a battery hog if it stayed on permanently. And the more it’s on, the more battery it uses. But it goes off after just 5 seconds and you can’t adjust that (or I can’t figure it out for the life of me). If you tend to often work at night or in the dark, it does cause these small delays - if you will - in your usual work rhythm, if you’re used to a keyboard that’s always backlit. However, the build quality, key feel (just tactile enough but not loud or obnoxious or too light to the touch), and other features like easy switching between devices make this still the best keyboard you can get

So far so good. Like the fact it came with a receiver because bluetooth can be less than reliable. Difficult to setup, says I can use the receiver for both the mouse and keyboard since the mx mouse for mac did not come with a receiver. So far I have not been able to get the mouse to work with keyboard receiver. Also “flow” between multiple computers is a cool idea but does not work as well as I had hoped. The install process took about an hour to get everything working. Keyboard keys feel great, almost rubberized texture, right amount of click, backlighting is cool, I cant get the keyboard to control monitor brightness but all other keys work as expected. Feels solid, made out of aluminum. I feel its an upgrade over the mac unit and cost less

Very nice and quiet keyboard. Love the option of backlight option help we work in my dark room setup. Easy to setup via bluetooth and battery life is great. Glad i went with keyboard over apple's magic keyboard

Bought it for work. Don’t realize it was set up for Mac only, but still easy to use. Love that you do not have to worry about changing batteries and it lasts a decent amount of time. If you’re a Mac only user than I think it’s a great product. If you alternate between pc and Mac they also have one that is structure for both keyboard layouts which is nice

I have a multiboot system and already enjoy the MX Mouse and how I can easily switch pairings without having to resort to lower level “pairing keys” magic. I was contemplating getting the MX Keys before the “Mac” version was released. Since I spend a lot of time on my MacBook Pro, 3 computers, 1 keyboard, official MacOS “Command” key, why not? When it works, it’s great. I’m one of those odd people that likes the current MBP keyboard mechanism, so this took a little bit to get accustomed to the way the keys press. I like the backlight, though you are stuck with when it activates. My office is apparently just dim enough that it was on pretty much all the time. It can’t be adjusted with the computer app they provided. What else? It’s a keyboard, does it’s job nicely. It’s nice and heavy, shouldn’t slide around unintentionally, etc. Now, why did I say “when it works?” Well, initial pairing was goofy. I couldn’t even get it into pairing mode. It eventually did after all sorts of attempts, way longer and more effort than it should have. I still have no idea what I did to get it to finally get into pairing mode. The next problem was that some keys, at least the Q, B, and 3, and left side Shift keys, would randomly stop working. Amongst all three computers this was paired to. As of today, I exchanged it, but the store was out of stock. Awaiting delivery of my replacement in a couple of days. Assuming this new one works as it should, it’s a good keyboard, albeit pricey, but so was the mouse.

I use this keyboard on both my mac and pc over bluetooth (mac) and the logi dongle (pc) and it is awesome. Setup is easy, switching devices is easy. I love that it has the number pad and the keys are so buttery. Holds a charge for a long time, even longer if you shut backlighting off. I spend more time on the keyboard than almost anyone (not proud) and this is my favorite keyboard ever.

This is a good keyboard when compared to the one that comes with an iMac. One would typically expect a membrane keyboard to be less expensive than a mechanical keyboard but this one comes in at a higher price than even a Keychron K4. That said, the build quality and the materials feel very high quality and the performance is consistent.

It’s a really good keyboard. I love how the lighting turns on and off depending if you are using the keyboard. It was a little hard to connect and get going at first since the instructions aren’t great. Its not five stars because it is a little too expensive in my opinion since the typing experience isn’t nearly as good as a mechanical keyboard but still pretty good. Basically its a nicer magic keyboard.

It's a great, solid keyboard, better feel and equal build quality to the Apple Magic Keyboards. Battery life is good considering the backlight, and the customizable keys are well worth the price of admission. The software can be buggy, and sometimes the function keys turn themself into F-keys, and that's annoying. But, it's overall a good buy!

Typing experience is really good. Connected very seamlessly. It’s a bit heavy but I bought it to keep in one place so I don’t mind this. It has slightly more travel than the keyboard on the 2020 MacBook Pro but I like it. Wish there was an aluminum version but that being said it is a very well built keyboard despite being made of plastic, feels very solid.

Great keyboard, but the software options leave a little to be desired. The backlit keys are nice to have, but there’s no options for controlling the aggressive battery savings that constantly turns them off. The functionality to switch the keyboard would work better if the function keys could be separated from using the function keys for other purposes.

Smooth, easy to use, plenty of space for fingers to glide over the keys and stays charged nicely.

It feels different than the other Logitech keyboards I've tried...I can't exactly figure out why. The keys feel slightly "mushier" maybe? It's not a problem, just a different feeling. HOWEVER...it feels premium. I was surprised at the weight of this thing...it's solid. My big complaint is the stupid backlight. I don't understand why you can't leave the backlight on. It will ALWAYS dim and turn off after a few seconds of not having fingers on the keyboard (it uses a proximity sensor apparently), even if it's plugged in. I could see turning off backlight to save battery...but let me leave it on if I'm plugged in! I sometimes work in a dark room at night, and would love to have the keys stay lit up instead of going fully dark every 10-15seconds. Connectivity is great. Switching between multiple macOS systems is near-instant. I have not tried to switch between Linux or Windows so can't comment on that part.

It’s great to have a single keyboard that can switch between my iMac, MacBookPro, and iPad Pro. Super convenient. However, it sometimes takes a while to switch, particularly if using only Bluetooth. It has the function key in a different place than a regular Apple keyboard. If you’re someone that uses a lot of shortcuts this will drive you bonkers. The new smaller version apparently is configured like an Apple keyboard - I wish I’d waited and bought that one anyway as I don’t use the number pad at all. I will say this, though - the keys feel great. Overall a very nice keyboard and highly recommended IF the location of the function key doesn’t bother you.
