Product Information

If you are already happy with your setup or have an existing mechanical keyboard, we wouldn’t suggest you throw it in the trash in place of this one just yet. That being said, if you’re looking for something Mac-specific and want highly programmable functions, shortcuts and excellent battery life, there’s a lot to recommend the Logitech MX Keys Mini for Mac. The typing experience if not excellent is certainly good, but for us, the product is slightlylet down by the high price and the rattle from the keys. We also weren’t 100% convinced by the in-line key design, which meant it was hard to find the right button instinctively at first, although we must admit that we did get used to it.

The LED on the Easy-Switch button should rapidly blink. If not, perform a long press for three seconds. You can use the mouse cursor to move from one computer to the next. MX Keys Mini keyboard will follow the mouse and switch computers at the same time. You can even copy and paste between computers. You will need to install Logitech Options software on both computers and then follow these instructions. For around the same price, we’d also recommend looking at the Apple Magic Keyboard, the slightly cheaper MX Keys Mini from Logitech, or if you’re set on a mechanical system, the excellent Keychron K8 arguably offers a superior mechanical experience for not a lot more money. Press Fn + Esc to swap between Media keys and F-Keys. We’ve added a notification to let you know you’ve swapped. Plug the USB-C cable at the top right corner of your keyboard. You can continue typing while it is charging.
