Review Logitech k380: A great multi-device Bluetooth keyboard

The Logitech K380 is a great keyboard, allowing you to type comfortably wherever you want. It can be used with nearly every Bluetooth enabled device and the small size of this keyboard makes it easy to carry around.

The Logitech K380 keyboard features multi-device pairing and media control keys, but without the backlight and macro programming keys. Typing on this keyboard is tiring and the noise is small enough to fit in any office. Although there is software support, the customization options are quite basic.

The Logitech K380 is a fairly small keyboard, as it is used for a variety of devices, including phones and tablets. The keyboard is very light and fits in any pocket. 

The keyboard is made of plastic, but overall, it feels solid. There are rubber feet at the bottom to prevent slipping. The keyboard cannot be tilted and does not come with a wrist pad. However, most people will feel comfortable typing on a keyboard.

Buttons

2. Key pressing force : 44,6gf
3. Total key travel distance : 1.62mm

The Logitech K380 uses scissor switches. When pressing the right key a bit force, but the overall feeling is still light. These switches have very short travel distances, which can lead to more spelling errors if you're not used to them.

The typing experience is quite good. The keys are stable and the keyboard is low for comfortable typing for long periods of time. The key spacing is a little closer to the Logitech K780, but that's not an issue for most people. Feeling lightly tapped and responded quickly, without causing any fatigue. The typing noise is very small, making this Logitech Bluetooth keyboard suitable for any quiet environment.

Software and compatibility

Logitech K380 has poor software support. Use the software keyboard Options Logitech to customize, allowing you to program some function keys, but you can only choose from a list of presets. Cloud sync is also available if you need to switch to another computer, but an account is required.

K380 has excellent compatibility. Although custom software is only available for Windows and macOS, most keys work on other operating systems. However, the Insert key does not work on macOS.

The size and weight of the keyboard make it easy to carry around. The Logitech K380 has Multi-pairing feature so you can pair with computer and smartphone at the same time.
