The Logitech Keys-To-Go is a very small keyboard that is great to bring around when traveling. It offers a more tactile feel than typing on a phone or tablet, but doesn't quite compare to a typical typing keyboard. The keys have a very small travel distance, meaning it's quite easy to make typos. On the upside, it feels rather well-built thanks to the nice rubber coating and it's one of the quietest options available.
Our Verdict
The Logitech Keys-To-Go isn't designed for gaming. It takes a lot of force to actuate the keys, and the latency is quite high. On top of that, it lacks backlighting and macro-programmable keys.
- Can be used via Bluetooth on any platform.
- Can only lay flat; no ergonomic design.
- Mediocre typing quality.
- High latency.
- No programmable keys.
- No backlighting.
The Logitech Keys-To-Go is a great mobile keyboard. It connects to your devices via Bluetooth and allows for a better tactile typing than on the touchscreen of your phone or tablet. It's very portable due to its small size and lightweight design. Unfortunately, you can't connect it to multiple devices. You also need to buy the right variant for your device, as there are variants for Apple devices, and another for Windows/Android.
- Travel-friendly design.
- Can be used via Bluetooth on any platform.
- Excellent compatibility with various operating systems.
- Can only lay flat; no ergonomic design.

The Logitech Keys-To-Go is a mediocre office keyboard. Its typing quality is quite sub-par due to the rubber dome switches and is quite typo-prone. On the upside, it's very quiet, but shouldn't really be used for typing during a full day at work.

The Logitech Keys-To-Go is bad for use with a home theater PC. Even though it has wireless connectivity, it doesn't have a trackpad, so you'll need a separate mouse. Also, there's no backlighting, which makes it hard to see the keys in the dark.

Popular Keyboard Comparisons
The Logitech Keys-To-Go is an excellent portable keyboard due to its compact size and Bluetooth support. However, it provides a sub-par typing experience and lacks a multi-device pairing feature, which the Logitech K380 has. For more options, check out our recommendations for the best wireless keyboards, the best iPad keyboards, and the best cheap keyboards.
The Logitech Keys-To-Go and Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s are both highly portable, low-profile keyboards. The Keys-To-Go is slightly smaller and recharges with an included cable. It also has a small tray designed to prop up a mobile device or small tablet, but it doesn't support multi-device pairing. Despite its slightly smaller size, it also feels a bit more sturdy. Comparatively, the Pebble Keys 2 is slightly larger and uses two AAA batteries for power. It supports multi-device pairing with up to three devices and offers a better typing experience.
Overall, the Logitech K380 is a much better keyboard than the Logitech Keys-To-Go. The K380 is more comfortable to type on, and its switches require a lot less force to actuate, providing a significantly better typing experience. Also, it has multi-device pairing and is compatible with Logitech's Options software for customization. On the other hand, the Keys-To-Go has a better build quality and a built-in rechargeable battery, whereas the K380 uses disposable batteries. The K380's latency is lower, but it's still not recommended for gaming.
The Apple Magic Keyboard 2017 is much better than the Logitech Keys-To-Go for most uses, although the Logitech is meant more as a portable keyboard for mobile devices. The Apple provides a significantly better typing experience because it requires a lot less force to operate the keys and gives more satisfying tactile feedback. Also, it has better build quality and is more comfortable to type on. That said, the Apple keyboard isn't compatible with Android devices.
The Logitech Keys-To-Go is a better option than the Logitech K480 if you're looking for a lightweight keyboard to bring around. It's noticeably smaller and lighter than the K480, but it can only be paired to one device at a time, while the K480 can be paired to three simultaneously. The Keys-To-Go is also rechargeable, while the K480 uses two AAA batteries. On the other hand, the Keys-To-Go has a very poor typing experience as the keys are mushy and require a lot of force to actuate.
