Logitech K780 Multi-Device Wireless Keyboard for Computer, Phone and Tablet – Logitech FLOW Cross-Computer Control Compatible

التعليق

This is my 3rd Logitech "gender fluid" keyboard and its by far the best, especially cuz it has a Numpad and I live in Excel. First was k380, similar feel, and I still use it at my 2nd office. Solid & reliable, although getting it set up on my locked down Windows work machine was a hassle at first. 2nd was K810, bought it as an "upgrade" and it was anything but. Looks nice, illumination is nice, but the built in battery is a hassle and worst of all it loses connection to both my Mac and PC, randomly.Key feel was worse and it attracts dust & fingerprints like mad with the glossy surfaces. I was looking at the outrageously priced Craft as a way of getting out of the disappointing 810, and got this one instead. I was skeptical mostly of the "white tablet stand". But its actually very tasteful, and handy, and doesnt add a lot of bulk when you are not using it. In terms of design, this it Philip Starck Classy vs Sony Practical Styling of the 810. Actually much nicer. And it paired with my Mac Pro, Dell Laptop, and iPad Air 2 seamlessly, switches fast AND HAS A NUMPAD!!! Cant believe this is cheaper than the 810 it is far superior.

Pros: The keyboard feel is very solid and positive. Eliminated a USB keyboard/mouse switch and a lot of USB cabling Cons: I knew about the non-standard key layout before I purchased, but it is harder to get used to than I expected. The Bluetooth connection is not stable; I must rediscover the keyboard at least two or three times a week. It would be better if the keyboard and mouse were a set so you could switch from one computer to another with one button. As it is, you must switch the mouse and keyboard separately. UPDATE: Changed to one star as the connection is dropping more and more frequently. Im being forced to consider replacing the system.

This keyboard has been great, except for one thing: the ctrl and fn keys are backwards. They are backwards for the PC. They are backwards for the Mac. Despite the configuration app being very limited, they have updated it a number of times since I purchased it and its still not addressed. Based on the response in their forums, Im guessing it is not programmable and one or both of these keys is hardwired. Maybe you can get your left hand, wrist and pinky to do the gymnastics necessary for using the control key, but I cant. I cant get used to it either. I dont know how they could have made such a glaring mistake. Too bad too, because the keyboard is slim, has just the right amount of travel, and is quiet but not silent with very good feedback. Connecting it wirelessly worked well too. But this one fatal flaw.... shame really.

Wow! This is a truly well-designed product overall. I ordered the "white" version, meaning the bottom and device cradle are a white rubbery substance. The rest of the keyboard is a matte-black, which I definitely prefer over the glossy black that most devices come in. Pros: - the design is very sharp and modern looking. In fact, if you are a nut about design consistency like I am, Logitech also offers a set of speakers and a mouse with the same design scheme. - tactile feel is great. I thought the rounded keys would take some getting used to, but the transition from a standard keyboard was seamless for me. - weight - this keyboard has some heft. I view that as a positive, since it needs to be a little heavy to hold devices upright in the built-in stand. Just another thing to make it feel like a premium product. - portability - while not necessary in my setup, the fact that this relies on either bluetooth or a usb dongle instead of wires makes it better in my book. - this is a full keyboard, unlike its predecessor that did not contain a number pad. - multi-device use - this is why I purchased this keyboard in the end. It has the ability to connect to up to 3 devices and switches between them at the push of a button. This was critical for me, since I wanted to control my dual-monitor setup with a desktop and laptop hooked up through a kvm switch. My switch was on the cheaper side, so it only has shared HDMI in/out, no shared USB. I didnt want to shell out hundreds of dollars for a single switch to cover my needs, so this fit the bill nicely. I didnt think I would even connect it to my phone, but I have found that to be an incredibly useful feature. Con: - the only con I can think of is that they replaced the F1-12 keys with the keys to switch between devices and other assorted commands. In order to use any F keys, you have to press FN first, which can get annoying. That probably isnt going to be an issue for most people, but its a minor annoyance for me.

This keyboard is PERFECT for what I needed at work. I needed to switch between my work PC and phone for keyboard and mouse (Samsung Dex) - using this with the M720 Logitech mouse. Pros: -Connecting and switching devices couldnt be more simple (switching is also very responsive). -Uses batteries vs rechargeable (necessary for long-term viability) -The phone stand is somewhat useless for me at work, but slowly Ive found uses for it. -Quiet keys and easy layout + full number pad Cons: -Sometimes there is an unusual lag when typing (I believe theres a firmware fix but cant update due to office software download policies). I believe the fix is resolve input lag when initially typing but Ive experienced some lag in-between typing (its rare). Delete key is in an unusual place. Function keys default and you need to install software to switch to F# keys (office blocks externally installed software) No rear legs (taped large binder clips to the bottom tho - easy fix) I LOVE this thing though...its perfect for any mix used office or home office!

Some things to really like about this keyboard are: 1. The round keys. I have a high end mechanical keyboard at home and while I really like these mechanical switches, the keys on top are square. I am finding with the rounded keys on the K780 the whole inadvertently bumping neighboring keys is basically a thing of the past and I have the confidence to type faster than ever before. Even after a day of using the keyboard it is become very obvious that the rounded indented key design is just a lot better than the square intended keys as I am just no longer clipping the high corner ridges of the neighboring keys and the rounded indent is just naturally easier to properly center your fingers on from any position. I suppose the one wish here is with the mechanical keys I dont need to bottom out the keys, so I save my fingers from repetitive stress issues. However these keys need to be pressed all the way down, however the resistance on them is well balanced and at least new I am having no problems with triggering keypress events with relatively light, rapid presses. One of the things I really like about mechanical keyboards is they always trigger half way down even after millions of key presses and so I am not killing things in my hands. I suppose only time will tell with this keyboard though as it is not the same tech. 2. The ability to switch between devices. This is just awesome. For so long it has been a challenge to switch between compute devices while this is just you press a button, it pairs up and just works. So many of us have more than one device we want to use a keyboard with and often on and in the same room at the same time, but most of us dont have piles and pile of devices to switch between, so this is a good combination of capability. For example my wife and I have our phones paired to this keyboard and we can and have just handed the keyboard over, pressed one button and then start typing away. No hassle and no question which phone it is actively talking to. The one complaint I have is the phone / tablet mount does not have an adjustable width. If I take the case off of my phone it will fit in there, but not with the case on. I have the case on the phone for a reason and it is a pain to take off, so I really prefer to leave it on. For some laying down situations, I can prop the phone against my leg and type away. For other situations I will need a kickstand or something or I am just SOL. Without the keyboard you are using your hands to both hold the phone and type on the screen and even with a large phone my fat fingers hit a lot of neighboring keys. However if you are trying to type on this keyboard, well you only have two hands so what is supposed to hold the phone in place while you type?

After using this device for a couple of weeks, it suddenly decided to stop operating. After attempting to connect several times by Bluetooth, I finally attempted to use the so-called "unifying" device. Pretty much of a joke. Neither connection worked. A lot of time wasted. I finally had to connect my old keyboard which - of anything - is reliable. I especially enjoyed Logitechs support instruction advising me to log on to the computer and go to Bluetooth pairing. Excellent advice--IF you are online. Unfortunately, I require an operational keyboard to connect to the computer to connect to pairing. Duh! A complete disappointment and a waste of valuable time.

I’m writing this review on my IPad Pro 12.9” and the Logitech K780 Multi-Device Wireless Keyboard. This thing solves a lot of problems for me. The latest IPad Pro is a legit work horse. Coupled with the Apple Pencil and a functional keyboard (less-so the Apple Smart Keyboard), this thing replaces a laptop on one front, and a tablet/stylus on the other. I use this for an array of task as a designer and the keyboard or lack thereof has plagued me since I picked this beaut up! Apple Smart Keyboard: I got this IPad with the Smart Keyboard and while it was beautiful and thin and integral, it left a lot to be desired. For one, it limits your ability to use a case to protect the surprisingly easy-to-scratch back. And in my case, and many others, the keyboard would not lay flat once deployed and supporting the weight of the iPad. This became incredibly annoying. The final nail in the coffin was the form over function approach. While it was thin and very attractive, for me, the ability to quickly deploy the keyboard, naturally place my hands and go to typing was seriously hindered by the meager profile and presence of keys and indicators to index your finger placement from. Logitech K780: I’ve not used the keyboard for much more than a day or so of normal use. But if feels fantastic. Per my taste, this is also a very attractive keyboard. The round keys are kinda sleek and retro. The keyboard itself is kind of a sleeper gray/black. The slot for the tablet/phone is like a firm silicone material. Meaning it’s soft and of a non-marring yet grippy, tactile nature. Very functional. Some device/case combos won’t fit. I have a very tactical-esque case for the iPad. It fits, but not well. I love the arrangement of having the iPad in the slot, but I prefer to leave my case attached. And use it’s built in kick-stand thingy. Many cases available WILL fit, you just may want to take some extra measures to make sure before you buy if that’s a big deal. The Keyboard is pretty weighty for as small as it is. There must be a ballast of some kind, obviously intended to counter balance the weight of a large tablet. It does so very well! Pairing is easy and reliable - make the devices “find” each other, the device will give you a 6 digit code to enter on the Logitech K780 keyboard, press “Enter” following the pairing code and you’re done. My iPad doesn’t tell me to press “Enter”, but my android phone did. You can quickly and effectively switch between up to 3 devices. The keyboard also comes with a little usb dongle for pairing with your desktop computer, much like every other Logitech keyboard. There is some button placement sacrificed for the sake of being compact, for instance, the arrow keys are a bit small and close together. But I’ve not had any mistrokes or anything thus far, so just something to get used to. A big draw to this keyboard and ones like it, was the full size number keypad. It does this while still being compact. The only drawback I see to this keyboard, is I wish it was rechargeable using micro-usb. Other’s I looked at were, and I kind of let that slip by me when buying this one. Not that I would have changed my preference or anything. But the need to keep up with and properly dispose of batteries is kind a pain. I suppose I can get some rechargeable batteries and keep those on hand instead. Anyway, shut up and buy it. You’ll be satisfied. Logitech makes several models that do what this one does but cheaper. Check those out of $60 isn’t a good value in your mind.

The Logitech K780 is a distinct step up from the budget keyboards Ive been using forever on my Windows machines. Its weight and stiffness yield a solid typing experience. The sharp-edged concave key-tops are comfortable and keep the fingers from drifting out of position. Its design is modern and stylish without sacrificing usability. (The rubber backed device slot is barely wide enough for my Moto G3 in a case.) The f4, f5, f6 and search keys are easily reassigned new functions from a list of 63 items in the Logitech Options software. My only real gripe about the K780 is the included setup documentation, an incomplete wordless graphic. Fortunately there is an excellent setup guide available from Logitechs site. While there, be sure to grab the Setpoint and Options software.

Cant say enough good things about this keyboard. I thought the circular keys would be weird at first but I had no trouble typing on this from day one and Im far more accurate than on my other keyboard. Its really quiet and the key travel is perfect. The flow feature (the main reason I bought it) works AWESOME. I go between a Mac and a PC for work and when I drag my mouse to the side of one screen it brings the mouse to the other screen and AUTOMATICALLY switches the keyboard to that computer. Its like freakin magic. I would have been content with pressing the 1 and 2 switching buttons on the top row but this is 100x better. It doesnt miss the first character like my other keyboard did because of sleeping issues. Although I do have it hooked to a unifying receiver on each computer if that makes a difference. Once I had the software downloaded setup took only a few seconds. Very impressed.
