Logitech K360 Wireless USB Desktop Keyboard — Compact Full Keyboard, 3-Year Battery Life (Glossy Black)

I bought the Logitech K360 Wireless Keyboard to go with my smart TV. It works great! Typing on the K360 is comfortable and feels very natural. The small size is perfect for use just sitting on my lap while kicked back in my easy chair. I paired it with the Logitech M325 Wireless Mouse which tracks perfectly right on the arm of the leather chair. The K360 Keyboard is inexpensive, under $30 dollars, which makes it a good choice for use with a smart TV. It's mainly useful for web browsing. If you are considering buying a keyboard for your TV, here's what the smart TV manufacturers don't tell you. The keyboard and mouse only work in the TV's menus and apps provided by that TV's brand. Once you click on any other apps, like Amazon Instant Video, Netflix, Hulu, or YouTube, the keyboard and mouse DO NOT WORK!!! That's why it's not a good idea to spend a lot of money on a keyboard for a smart TV. The Logitech K360 is small, very reliable, and inexpensive which makes it a perfect choice to use with a smart TV.Another point I'd like to make about using a Logitech wireless keyboard and mouse with a smart TV is that to run both with one Logitech Unifying Receiver requires the download of Logitech's SetPoint Software. Downloading this software to a smart TV can not be done. Therefore, you are required to use one receiver for the keyboard and one for the mouse. So, make sure your TV has two available USB ports. Obviously, any other feature on this keyboard that requires the SetPoint software will also be unavailable when used with a smart TV.

As a data systems analyst, I use a laptop at work for a solid 8-10 hours a day. My laptop doesn't have a dedicated numeric keypad, so I was relegated to using the wired USB keyboard that came with the setup. My laptop is usually latched into the dock when at my desk, and I have an additional 22" monitor attached.One of the problems I encountered with my stock setup was the wire on the keyboard kept getting in the way and moving my keyboard out of the way when I had to review paper documentation was a real pain. I have several full-sized wireless Logitech keyboards (the Wave being my favorite!), but they are too bulky for my particular application and workspace limitations.I saw this keyboard while shopping on Amazon and thought I would give it a try. I liked the fact that it has a small form-factor for a keyboard with a numeric keypad and it also utilizes Logitech's Unifying receiver so I could use my Logitech M510 mouse with this keyboard and only take up one USB port on my PC.I am used to full sized keys on a standard keyboard so I wasn't too sure about how well I could type with the "chicklet" keys on this keyboard. I must say that this is a GREAT keyboard and it hasn't slowed me down one bit while typing.I have owned this keyboard for almost a year now without any problems and, like I said before, in using it for 8-10 hours a day, 5 and 6 days a week, I have only changed the batteries in it one time.I would offer a bit of advice for those who don't have administrator rights to your work computer and want to use multiple Logitech devices on a single Unifying receiver. The keyboard will come already synced with it's own Unifying receiver, so you can use it right out of the box. But, like I mentioned earlier, I also have a wireless Logitech mouse that had it's own Unifying receiver, but I was unable to pair them to one receiver on my PC at work since I don't have admin rights.What I did to overcome this obstacle was to bring my devices home with me one day and pair them to one Unifying receiver on my PC at home using Logitech's Unifying software. I then took them to work the next day and plugged in the single Unifying receiver and was up and running instantly with both keyboard and mouse on one receiver.So, if you're looking for a compact full-sized keyboard for your PC, look no further and get this one. I'm certainly glad I did!

The key spacing is a bit wide. Not a turn off... it will actually probably (no scientific backing, just what I think..) improve typing accuracy for most people in the long run and I know most people need that kind of help (no offense. I can probably do over 100 WPM with generally good grammar, but most people can't...). I also like the media keys and that, unlike many other cheap bluetooth keyboards, the F1-F12 keys REQUIRE you to press the FN key to access their alternative functions. Which this is priced very competitively to said keyboards. One competing product is the more expensive AmazonBasics keyboard. Said keyboard automatically assumes you want to use the alternative functions of the F1-F12 keys by default. A bit silly if you ask me, but then again it is technically made for Mac users. I'm using it (and now this keyboard) on my Surface Pro and my desktop computer (which, thanks to what the Z87 MPower motherboard comes with, has bluetooth connectivity built in).TL;DR: Overall the keyboard works just fine.The only annoying thing, the little "unifying receiver..."Basically if you want to use a Logitech mouse with the receiver that comes with this, you NEED software that this doesn't come with (that I saw...). Re-pairing something with this is not plug and play. So for instance in order to use my M505 mouse with this, I needed to download the Unifying software from Logitech (thankfully only about 4 megs), and then turn my mouse off and on. Overall not a hard process but I REALLY wish this would be made more clear somewhere on the product page. They just claim that you can use it like this and then give you a list of compatible devices. Maybe I just skipped over that section, but it's not really clear that you need anything beyond what Windows installs this as. Furthermore, I don't think this can be used with android devices. At least not easily. Pretty big con if you want to use this with all of your devices. I have a little micro usb to USB port cable somewhere.Long story short I almost returned this because I though the unifying thing was plug and play, but then decided to read up on it a bit more and found out that it was not. Afterwards, all is well (except, I suppose, my very probable lament that this likely will not work with my non-stock android device through USB).Edit: Actually, I was very pleasantly surprised. The Unifying USB receiver actually does work with my Android smartphone! I simply hooked in my MicroUSB to USB host adapter and then connected the receiver. Both the keyboard and mouse worked just fine. Now this is still a bit of an inconvenience because I need to carry around a little adapter with me, but still... I suppose this Unifying receiver does have some advantages in that it can also be used in the BIOS whereas bluetooth cannot. I'm bumping up my rating to 5 stars.
