POP Keys is Logitech's answer for buyers who want mechanical keys with a playful look. It uses Brown tactile mechanical switches under round, typewriter-style keycaps, and Logitech rates the keys for up to 50 million keystrokes. Power comes from 2 AAA batteries that Logitech rates for up to 3 years, so unlike the Keychron K2 it never needs a cable. It connects over Bluetooth 5.1 to up to 3 devices or through the Logi Bolt receiver included in the box. The function row carries 12 FN shortcuts for screen snips, voice to text and mic mute, and a set of emoji keys can be reassigned, with 4 spare emoji keycaps included. The trade-offs: there is only one switch option, there is no backlight listed, and at $99.99 it costs $30 more than the K2's sale price. It weighs 779 g, so it is a desk piece more than a travel one.
