Best Logitech Keyboard For The Office
Connectivity WirelessSizeFull-size (100%)MechanicalNoLogitech is known for its office keyboards, and the best Logitech wireless keyboard we've tested for this use is the Logitech MX Keys. It's a well-rounded model that provides very good performance for the office. It doesn't have as good ergonomics as the Logitech ERGO K860 Wireless Split Keyboard, but we recommend it because the K860 has a split design that not everyone may be used to; however, you should get what you feel comfortable with. This keyboard is well-built with a solid metal frame, and it even has white backlighting so you can see the keys easier in the dark.
It only connects to devices wirelessly, either through Bluetooth or the USB receiver, and latency is a bit high for gaming with those connections, but it's fine for typing, and you shouldn't notice any delay. It has multi-device pairing with up to three devices at once, and switching between them is easy. Typing feels great, and the keys are indented to help reduce typos. It's compatible with the Logitech Options software, which allows you to reprogram some function keys to a preset list of commands. Overall, it's the best Logitech keyboard we've tested for the office.

Best Logitech Ergonomic Keyboard For The Office
Connectivity WirelessSizeFull-size (100%)MechanicalNoIf you're looking for an ergonomic board for the office, the best Logitech keyboard we've tested is the Logitech ERGO K860 Wireless Split Keyboard. It's a curved board with two incline settings that create a negative incline, which places your wrists in a more natural position. This, paired with the fixed wrist rest, should help reduce wrist strain after typing for a long time. It has typical scissor switches that give feedback when the key is registered, but the bump requires quite a lot of force to get over. Like most non-mechanical switches, the switches are very quiet to type on, meaning they won't bother those around you. On another note, you can pair the board wirelessly with up to three devices via Bluetooth or with its USB receiver. It's compatible with most desktop and mobile operating systems, but some keys don't work as intended on certain devices.
Unfortunately, its design can take some time to get used to, especially if you're used to the more standard straight board design. Also, its split key design forces you to touch-type, so you'll type a lot slower at first if you're not used to typing this way. Sadly, there's no backlighting, so you won't be able to see the keys very well when you're in a dim room. That said, this is still an excellent office choice if you want something with an ergonomic curve to it, and it's one of the best ergonomic keyboards we've tested.

Best Logitech Keyboard For Gaming
Connectivity WirelessSizeFull-size (100%)MechanicalYesThe best Logitech gaming keyboard we've tested is the Logitech G915 LIGHTSPEED. This low-profile, mechanical keyboard is an incredible choice for gaming, thanks to its outstandingly low latency. The proprietary GL Tactile switches we tested have a very short pre-travel distance, so they should feel very responsive. Also, it's available with GL Clicky or Linear switches, so you can get the feel you prefer. You can customize the RGB backlighting on a per-key basis through the Logitech G HUB software. It's wireless, and you can pair it with two devices and easily switch between them with the press of a button. If you don't need wireless connectivity, the Logitech G815 LIGHTSYNC RGB performs almost identically, but it's a wired model.
Due to its thin design, the metal frame flexes, and our unit came with a slight upward bend. The keycaps are ABS plastic, which easily picks up oil and may develop shine over time. Also, you can set macros only to the dedicated macro keys on the left side of the board, but you can't reprogram any other key. However, you can have up to three profiles saved to the board, so you can switch between them to give you more customization layers. All in all, this is an incredible gaming option.

Best Logitech Budget Gaming Keyboard
Connectivity WiredSizeFull-size (100%)MechanicalYesIf you're on budget, the best Logitech gaming keyboard that we've tested is the Logitech G413. This is a fantastic choice if you're looking for something simple but don't want to compromise on performance. It has an incredibly low latency, and it feels as responsive as some higher-end models that we've tested. It feels very well built thanks to its plastic frame and brushed aluminum top plate, and the board doesn't bend at all. It has media hotkeys to let you easily control your music and a USB passthrough on the right side of the board. The Romer-G Tactile switches are light to press, and there's a small bump before the key is registered. Sadly, if you prefer a different switch feel, it isn't available with linear or clicky switches.
Unfortunately, while it has backlighting, the color is red only, which might be a dealbreaker if you wanted to sync the lighting to the rest of your RGB peripherals. Also, while the software offers some customization, like remapping keys and setting macros, it's limited to the function row, so you can't reprogram any other keys, like the home cluster keys or numpad. That said, if you're looking for a straightforward budget gaming keyboard, this is a remarkable choice.

Best Logitech Keyboard For Mobile
Connectivity WirelessSizeCompact (75%)MechanicalNoThe Logitech K380 is the best Logitech keyboard for mobile devices that we've tested. It's a simple keyboard that's smaller than the Logitech K780, but that means it's easier to carry around as you can easily place it in your bag. Build quality is decent, and even though the frame flexes a bit, it still feels solid overall. It comes with a few extra features like media hotkeys so you can play your favorite music easily, and you can reprogram a few function keys to a preset list of commands using the Logitech Options software.
Unfortunately, it doesn't have a proprietary receiver and can only connect over Bluetooth. This is good if you need to connect to your phone or tablet on the go but may pose a problem if your desktop computer doesn't have Bluetooth support. It doesn't have backlighting like the Logitech MX Keys, so the keys may be hard to see if you're in a dark environment. Typing quality is good as the scissor switches have a low pre-travel distance and offer nice tactile feedback, but they may feel heavy to press at times. The keys are well-spaced out and are slightly indented, so you know you hit the center of the key. All in all, it's the best Logitech keyboard for mobile devices.
Compared to other brands
- Versatile lineup for office, gaming, and mobile. Logitech produces a wide range of models for both productivity and gaming. Whatever your needs are, it's likely Logitech has the right keyboard.
- Various sizes. Logitech has full-size options for gaming to compact keyboards to take on the go. You'll likely find the right size that suits your needs.
- Programmable with macOS and Windows. The Logitech G HUB and Logitech Options software offer tons of customization options for your keyboard. They're both compatible with macOS and Windows.
- Lack of PBT keycaps. The vast majority of Logitech keyboards are made with ABS keycaps instead of doubleshot PBT plastic. PBT keycaps tend to be more durable and aren't as prone to shine.
- Programming only available with dedicated keys. Even with their gaming models, macro-programming is limited to dedicated keys, usually with the function keys, and you can't reprogram all the keys.
Logitech vs Corsair
Logitech has a wider range of options than Corsair, including office keyboards, as Corsair mainly focuses on gaming keyboards. Mechanical Logitech keyboards use proprietary switches, while Corsair uses Cherry MX switches. Overall, Corsair makes better-built keyboards, and their gaming options tend to have more customization options like setting macros to any key.
Logitech vs Razer
On the whole, Logitech and Razer are very different in terms of what types of keyboards they make. Logitech has a wide range of keyboards, from gaming keyboards to mobile models. Razer has a small lineup and focuses on gaming keyboards, but they've started to produce mechanical keyboards aimed at office use, and they're available in different switches. While Razer's Synapse 3 doesn't work on macOS, it offers more customization options than Logitech, like allowing you to set macros to any key.
Overall, Logitech makes good keyboards for any use. Their office keyboards are available in ergonomic designs or are portable enough for mobile use on the go. In terms of gaming, Logitech makes mechanical keyboards that almost any gamer should be comfortable with, but they aren't as customizable as the competition. Although it may be overwhelming to look at the list of Logitech keyboards and try to find the one that suits you, they'll likely have the right keyboard for your needs.
