Great keyboard to sit next to tv or server box and forget. very flimsy construction. odd Fkey layout makes it frustrating to use for a os that isnt a plex. trackpad/mouse is less than accurate. Cheap. Perfect for my rpi media server but I would of bounced it a long time ago if I had to type anything daily on it.

We are using this with a Linux home theater system. What's nice? Solidly built but lightweight, nice compact size, full-sized keys, and the mousepad two-finger vertical and horizontal scroll work really well. There is a second, yellow left-mouse button for your left hand in the upper left corner, very useful for click-and-drag, but also easy to hit by accident when you are trying to press Esc. What's annoying? I could not find a center-click mouse function. The F1-F12 keys require the Fn "shift" key pressed to operate as function keys, which makes key combos like Ctrl-Alt-F1 for a Linux terminal window difficult. PageUp and PageDown also require the help of Fn. Logitech's behavior modification utility is Windows-only, and its EULA says the user permits Logitech to probe to see what other software is installed on the computer. However, once programmed, the keyboard remembers its settings while turned off, and stays programmed when moved to a Linux system. There's no PDF manual, and the rather scanty documentation is a webpage on Logitech's site. This model is not fully supported by Solaar, a Linux device manager for Logitech’s Unifying Receiver peripherals. In summary, it's not perfect, but it's easier to use from an armchair than a regular wireless full-sized keyboard and separate mouse.Read full review

This is an excellent AV/Home Theater keyboard because of its range. That said, he older Logitech keyboards I have uses were much better quality. This unit is very lightweight and flexes. If you are considering using this for composition or coding, look elsewhere. The keys have decent travel, but not a good feel. They seem to be mushy to me. The other drawback for serious use is the reduced size. The keyboard is smaller than standard size so expect to make a lot of typos until you retrain your fingers. Other drawbacks are non-standard layout of function keys, a tiny backspace, and the lack of dedicated home and end keys. After saying all of that, this is still a good purchase for me because I primarily use it to control my PC home theater and the range is excellent. The other thing I will say is this keyboard (and the Logitech M705 mouse) installed automatically and flawlessly in Linux. I replaced Windows with Linux Mint 2 years ago and have not regretted it. Occasionally I find a device that is dedicated to the Windows operating system, this keyboard is not one of them. 100% Recommended for AV use.Read full review

I actually got this so that I could pull off the $50 Microsoft Stock Keyboard on the Surface Pro 4 because I like to game and my Pro 4 actually plays my favorite MMO Game decently well but the clickerless mousepad sucks so bad for turning your character or just recognizing that you are trying to right click and turn. So I remembered a buddy of mine using one of these small two in one keyboards. His was a different version though but after much frustration I remembered that keyboard. I tried looking for dirt cheap ones but no luck so I decided to check on the Logitech official version and I was impressed. Actually is a good price. Not just from one source either. It is a great affordable keyboard overall. Plus for being wireless it works with my games really well and it just makes me so happy to have my right and left click buttons. Plus the mousepad sensitivity is perfect. I have been using it for about 2 weeks now and can't be more happy. I definitely recommend it. The only fault which is a user adjustment are the keys. They are completely different from your normal keyboard. They are smaller and take time to get used to. Especially the Enter, Backspace and Esc Keys. I think it only took me three days to finally adjust to them and not hit two to three keys at once by accident lol. Anyway. 9.5/10. Buy buy buy it. Read full review

The trackpad works well..I bought this to replace the Logitech K700 because scrolling web pages is terrible on it. Works great, types well, although not as awesome as the K700 (which is one of the best typing experiences I've ever had on a keyboard) nice to have 2 finger gestures on the trackpad. Logitech Options (the updated version of SetPoint) recognizes it no problem and you can change any of the function keys to whatever you want. Also has F keys (F1, F2, etc) which the K700 didn't. I only deducted one star because the tracking is too fast (despite setting it slower) and the keyboard isn't quite as good as I'd hoped. It can stand on its end for storing on the coffee table. STill totally worth the low price.
