Logitech MX Keys S review

The MX Keys S is the most complete Bluetooth keyboard here for people who type all day at a desk. Logitech uses spherically dished keys shaped for fingertips and a backlight that switches on when your hands approach, then brightens or fades with the room's light. The 1500 mAh battery charges over USB-C and Logitech rates it for up to 10 days with backlighting on, or up to 5 months with it off. It connects over Bluetooth Low Energy or a Logi Bolt USB receiver, which Logitech recommends for Macs with FileVault enabled, and Easy-Switch moves between up to 3 devices. Logi Options+ adds Smart Actions that chain several steps into one keystroke. The trade-offs are price and charging: at $119.99 on sale it costs more than most picks here, and anyone who keeps the backlight on will charge it every week or two. If you want the same keys in a smaller body, the MX Keys Mini costs $89.99.
