Perhaps 'Insert' and 'minimize all windows' isn't supported in Mac OS, but either way, you'd be buying a version of this $100 keyboard with amazing multi-device capabilities and losing general cross-OS functionality while gaining nothing Mac-specific. I understand this is probably necessary to comply with Apple's standards for stuff marketed as "made for Mac" or whatever they call it now, but that seems like a unfortunate technicality. Also because Mac keyboards apparently still need a dedicated disc eject key for some reason in 2020 (?!?!) the Mac version loses the dedicated 'minimize all windows' button on the F5 key. The Mac version FN key replaces the Insert key up near the home/end/delete/page buttons. The original universal version of MX Keys has split opt/start and cmd/alt buttons with the Mac keyboard iconography and omits the redundant right-side OPT button, opting instead for a FN (function) key. Aside from the change in tone to match the Apple hardware, the original keyboard seems superior in a few small ways. I'm a bit baffled by the changes to the Apple version of the MX Keys. Yeah, the arrow keys are never optimal on compact keyboards but I still prefer pain-free living over efficient arrow keys. I'd even go so far as to say that Apple should consider coming up with a version of their big keyboard that has a Magic Trackpad built into the keyboard body and ditch all those extra keys and the "accountant" keypad. Since I've had amazing battery life from every other Logitech keyboard I've owned I'm hopeful the K380 will be a permanent solution for my needs.
Unfortunately, that old beast required rechargeable battery swapping every 10-15 days, even with infrequent use.
Switching back to my original Apple Magic Keyboard from did the trick because I could move the trackpad and trackball closer to the keyboard. With the bigger keyboard either the trackpad or trackball, depending on which one was furthest outboard, caused my wrist to ache. The motivation for the change is because I use both a second generation Apple Magic Trackpad (gesture heaven) and a Logitech MX Ergo Trackball (been using thumb based trackballs since day one) along with the keyboard on the same machine. I like the key feel and the fact that it is nearly silent makes it pleasant to use and non distracting.Īfter using a large keyboard with the extra keys and numeric keypad for many years, I finally figured out, with the help of an aching wrist, that I prefer a compact format keyboard much better.
Even though it's plastic it feels very solid sitting on my desk next to my Magic Trackpad.
