The short version

The MX Keys S is Logitech's full-size scissor-switch keyboard for office and creative work, with spherically dished keys, Smart Illumination that lights the keys as hands approach, and customizable Smart Actions through Logi Options+. It pairs with up to three devices across Windows, macOS, Linux, Chrome OS and iPadOS. Logitech's specification tab was not readable during this research, so battery life and connection details are unverified. It targets quiet productivity rather than gaming performance.

Pros

  • Spherically dished keys designed to reduce mistypes
  • Smart Illumination backlight reacts to approaching hands
  • Pairs with up to three devices across several operating systems
  • Smart Actions and app-specific customization through Logi Options+

Cons

  • Scissor switches do not suit buyers wanting a mechanical feel
  • Logitech's specification tab could not be read, so battery and connection details are unverified
  • Not designed for competitive gaming

Best for

  • Office workers who want a quiet full-size keyboard
  • Users moving between Windows, macOS and iPadOS devices
