The Logitech MX Keys keyboard had received our praise and the manufacturer now offers a version without a numeric keypad of its wireless keyboard: the MX Keys Mini. A compact format which is a great success.
Apart from its size, the MX Keys Mini is generally very similar to the MX Keys. It just rejuvenates the formula with some nifty shortcuts. This wireless model is therefore still part of the cream of office keyboards and suffers from few shortcomings. If the compact, numberpad-less form factor suits you, go for it, the MX Keys Mini is a great desktop companion.

NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
It’s almost flawless for this Designer Compact Keyboard. It offers good typing quality and exemplary compactness, perfect for saving space on a desk or taking it anywhere. We still regret the operation with 4 button batteries, while a rechargeable battery could have been more durable and could possibly have authorized the provision of backlighting of the keys. The optional Number Pad completes the formula well for those who need to handle the numbers regularly, even if it increases the bill significantly.
