Popular Keyboard Comparisons
The Logitech K800 is a decent wireless keyboard, but its board design is cheaply made and its keystrokes require a lot of force to get over the pre-actuation bump. It has scissor switches, which are fine for typing, but if you prefer mechanical switches, check our recommendations for the best mechanical keyboards.

The Logitech K800 and the Logitech Signature K650 are two very similar budget wireless keyboards. However, the K800 only works with a USB receiver, while K650 uses a USB receiver and Bluetooth for connectivity. Otherwise, they offer a similar cheap-feeling build quality and fairly unsatisfying typing experience.
The Logitech K780 is a better overall wireless keyboard than the Logitech K800. It's fully compatible with macOS and offers a better typing quality than the K800. Some people might not like the circular keys of the K780, though, and might prefer the more typical design of the K800's keys. The K780 is also Bluetooth-enabled and can connect to three devices simultaneously and features a small cradle for your mobile devices as well.
The Logitech MX Keys is a better wireless keyboard than the Logitech K800. It's better-built, can be used over Bluetooth with three devices simultaneously, offers better backlighting, and has a noticeably better typing quality. If your budget allows it, the MX Keys is better in almost every category.
The Logitech K800 and the AmazonBasics K4R are fairly different affordable keyboards. The AmazonBasics has an integrated touchpad and features rubber dome switches that feel a bit mushy. On the other side, the Logitech has backlighting, scissor switches, a fixed wrist rest, and a Numpad. The Logitech is rechargeable while the AmazonBasics uses disposable batteries.
