Pros & Cons
Pros
The mx keys mini is an excellent keyboard. The multi-device connectivity is incredibly convenient. The keystroke is nice and responsive.
The build quality is outstanding, with a solid construction that feels durable and premium. It feels as sturdy as the corsair mechanical i was using before. It adds a touch of luxury to my desk setup.
Keys very quiet and smooth (very apple'esq) with scissor type action. The keys have a slight concave shape, which enhances comfort during long typing sessions.
The battery life is impressive. A full charge lasts several weeks, even with heavy daily use. When it does need recharging, the usb-c port makes it quick and easy to top up the battery.
The mx master keyboard is an absolute joy to type on for day to day work use and it's clear to see who this is aimed toward, i. Everyday all day typers, administrators, coders and designers. They also have a soft bottom out removing dulling the impact... Read More
Cons
The prior model of this keyboard is now heavily discounted. Support is worse than non-existent. It has 2 major failings that make it problematic for working and very badly suited for gaming.
The key cap writing is very faint and blends in too well with the rest of the dark colored keyboard. This key should have been something that would have been more helpful to use when you fn lock the keys to the f keys (aka you can use that key without... Read More
The keyboard goes to sleep and then requires an additional keystroke to wake. This results in unwanted keystrokes, simple keyboard shortcuts fail to work causing further errors. I get this problem in less than the time it takes to type a password.
Highlights
Quality

After a few months of use i feel the gaps between the keys and the keyboard body are wide enough for debris, dust and food part... Read More
It turned out to be the mechanical keyboard combined with a lack of space for a wrist rest and the flexing that was causing on ... Read More
Price
Purchased during the black friday sales, still expensive but worth every penny.
Despite the higher price tag, the value it provides in terms of productivity and comfort is well worth it.
I did question paying nearly £90 for it but it is well worth the price.
It's expensive but well worth the investment if you do a lot of screen work.
Packaging/appearance
I won’t be doing this again as it arrived in a battered box and needed a good clean.
Competitiveness
In the face of such expensive apple accessories, this is very nearly as good as theirs.
I use this alongside the logitech mx master mouse and i connect both devices via bluetooth.
Unfortunately when i came back to a pc the keyboard was a huge issue for me i went through 3 or 4 and nothing compared to that ... Read More
Quite expensive but way better than cheaper alternatives.
