What customers say about "Keys"
Logitech MK520 Wireless Keyboard
  • The keys feel a little more "gritty" which allows my fingers to grasp the keys better.
  • Keyboard also has some interesting shortcut keys on the function row.
  • You get to snap the keys a little and they respond well.
  • All of the keys work. I like the comfortable wide hand rest below the keys.
  • The keys got slower to respond, prone to freeze-up and super frustrating.
Logitech MK545 Advanced Wireless Keyboard
  • Shortcut keys for sleep and settings is nice.
  • I love the versatility of it with the programmable keys.
  • Furthermore, the keys are located where I expect them!
  • The keyboard is made of some non-smooth plastic, keys feel like cheep plastic.
  • And I noticed some of my keys had the symbols rubbed out.
