The Logitech MX Keys Mini, a popular compact wireless keyboard known for its typing experience and versatile software, is currently available for a discounted price of £52 on Amazon as part of Prime Day savings. This represents a 39% reduction.
The MX Keys Mini features a space gray metal chassis and a slender profile, with a 65 percent layout that omits the number pad and navigation cluster but retains essential keys, including arrow keys and a function row. Its design is complemented by keycaps with circular indents to aid finger placement and minimize typos. The keyboard is dual-printed with both Windows and Mac commands, making it suitable for users of either operating system. Backlighting with proximity and ambient light sensors further enhances usability, automatically illuminating the keys when hands approach and adjusting brightness to suit the environment.
Internally, the keyboard utilizes scissor-actuated keys, providing a responsive and quiet typing experience reminiscent of laptop keyboards. Battery life extends up to five months with backlighting off, or ten days with it on. Charging is handled via USB-C, allowing for continued use while the device powers up.
Connectivity options include Logitech's Unifying Receiver or Bluetooth, with the ability to connect to and seamlessly switch between up to three devices. For users with compatible Logitech mice and the Logi Options+ software, the Logitech Flow feature enables cross-device copy-pasting and file transfers across different operating systems on the same network.
The Logi Options+ software allows for extensive customization, including remapping function row keys, setting app-specific shortcuts, and configuring dedicated emoji, dictation, and microphone mute keys. This level of software integration makes the MX Keys Mini particularly well-suited for power users seeking to tailor their peripherals to their specific workflows.
