Its quite heavy weight does make it more ideal for use on a table, rather than as a portable keyboard for users who have high mobility. But this weight also allows him to sit comfortably at the table, without fear of being shifted accidentally.

The gaps in each button are quite tight, making it easy for dust to enter and reside there. But at least you will be able to clean it easily.

This keyboard can not be adjusted the angle of use. For users who like a flat keyboard position, Logitech Pop Keys will feel comfortable. But for those who like the position of the keyboard slightly tilted, the angle of using Pop Keys will feel less high. Again, this is a matter of user preference.

One interesting thing lies in the column of buttons on the far right. Logitech includes five emoji keys in Pop Keys, which can be swapped. The button replacement process is also very easy. You just hold tight the button you want to replace and pull it.

Each Pop Keys key is a pleasure to type on. The sound of tapping each button is not loud, but still clearly audible. For users who are already familiar with mechanical keyboards, the Pop Keys switch character will feel like a Cherry MX Brown Switch.

One thing that is a bit annoying for users who can type fast is the distance between each key that feels narrow. Indeed Logitech wants to make this keyboard look slimmer. But when used, users with rather large fingers will find it difficult to bring out the best typing speed.

For fans of FPS games or other PC games, this keyboard is comfortable even though it doesn’t have features commonly found in gaming keyboards such as NKRO or anti-ghosting keys. As for the durability of the keys, it doesn’t seem like there’s anything to worry about considering Logitech claims that the Pop Keys button will last up to 50 million presses.

Battery performance is also claimed to reach 3 years if not used too often. Pop Keys use regular AA batteries which are easy to find anywhere.

Just like most Logitech wireless keyboards, Pop Keys also supports Windows, Mac, Android and iOS devices. You can connect it directly to three devices. Switching between devices can be done by using the Fn key on the upper left side of the keyboard.

Given that this keyboard supports several operating systems, don’t expect you to be able to find a row of shortcut functions on the Fn key like on a laptop keyboard in general. Depending on the type of user, there are some useful shortcuts such as Voice to textmute the microphone, or perform screenshot on the screen.

Logitech Pop Keys comes as a fun alternative that is relatively affordable in the realm of mechanical keyboards. Indeed, this keyboard does not offer the flexibility to change switches or buttons. However, a sturdy design with reliable connectivity features makes it suitable for ordinary users who want to have a mechanical keyboard with a cute and unique appearance. The tight round keys are not suitable for users who often type for a long time or want to type extra fast. But at least the size is still compact enough to carry around. The price is quite affordable when compared to other mechanical keyboards from well-known brands, but of course with limitations.
