We like:
Comfortable; minimalist design; convenient backlit keys; strong tactile feedback; easy to install
We don't like:
Lacks wireless support; no USB ports; fixed wrist pad attracts fingerprints
CNET UK judgement:
The keys on the Logitech Illuminated Keyboard are comfortable to use and emit a satisfying click, but it lacks convenient features we've come to expect from a PC keyboard. Nevertheless, we think this Logitech is a practical, affordable and convenient keyboard that manages to look sexy at the same time
Full review:
The Logitech Illuminated Keyboard is about as simple as it gets, so you get no built-in USB ports, scroll dials or any of the other features in more expensive devices such as the Logitech G15. Instead, for under £50 you get a sexy, quiet keyboard with a very minimalist design, and it performs well to boot. If you're a night owl gamer or just want an attractive, comfortable input device, the Logitech Illuminated Keyboard is an outstanding choice. Continue Reading...
