The Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s is a compact wireless keyboard and a successor to the Logitech K380. It looks virtually identical to its predecessor but is available in several new color options. The biggest change under the hood is significantly increased battery life, despite still using two AAA batteries for power, like the original. It also adds compatibility with Logitech's BOLT USB receiver but doesn't include one in the box. Smaller changes introduced with this model include new shortcuts for emojis, dictation, and screenshots and new software functionality for programming simplified macros that Logitech calls Smart Actions.
Our Verdict
The Logitech Pebble Keys 2 is disappointing for gaming but isn't designed for this use. While it has decent build quality, it only connects wirelessly via Bluetooth, providing inadequate latency performance with an extremely low effective update rate. It's suitable for playing casual titles but doesn't provide a responsive enough experience for playing fast-paced or competitive games.
- Adequate latency performance for casual gaming.
- Not suitable for fast-paced or competitive gaming.
- Is compatible with but doesn't include a LOGI BOLT USB receiver in the box.
- No backlighting.
The Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s is good for office use. It has decent build quality, and its typing noise is very quiet. It connects wirelessly via Bluetooth with up to three devices simultaneously. It has a very slim, low-profile design that makes it comfortable to type on without a wrist rest. It's also very portable, making it easy to move between workstations or carry with you on the go. Its circular keycaps and slightly closer-than-normal key spacing may feel cramped and take some getting used to if you normally use a full-size keyboard. The switches also have a very short travel distance, so if you type forcefully, you may experience a more abrupt bottoming-out sensation.

- Very quiet typing noise.
- Low profile design; comfortable to type on without a wrist rest.
- Is compatible with but doesn't include a LOGI BOLT USB receiver in the box.

The Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s is a remarkable keyboard for use with mobile devices and tablets. It has decent build quality and supports multi-device pairing with up to three devices simultaneously. Its compact size and lightweight, low-profile design make it easy to carry with you or slip into bags. It also provides good typing quality and is very quiet, so it's unlikely to bother anyone around you. Unfortunately, its circular keycaps may take some getting used to at first, and its tighter key spacing feels more cramped than a full-size keyboard.

The Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s is satisfactory for programming. It connects wirelessly and supports multi-device pairing with up to three devices.

The typing quality is good overall, but the spacing is a bit cramped compared to full-size keyboards, and the circular keycaps and very short total travel distance may take some getting used to.

It connects wirelessly with up to three devices simultaneously but lacks backlighting, so you can't see the keys in darker rooms. It also doesn't have dedicated media keys. However, it has media hotkeys as primary functions on the F-row out of the box.
