Typing Bliss. Exploring the Logitech MX Mechanical Keyboard Series

nikkierodrigues

Hey everyone

I’ve been using the Logitech MX Mechanical Clicky version for about a month now, and I have to say, I absolutely love it. The joy it brings while typing, the feel of the keys, the customizable backlighting, it’s just an amazing experience.

I know there are other keyboards out there, but I’ve always been a Logitech fan. That said, I’m always open to trying new keyboards but for now, the MX Mechanical Clicky has me hooked.

A few highlights:

Backlighting: There are over 5 modes you can switch on the fly. I’m currently using a mode where the light blinks every time I type.
Battery life: Honestly, it’s incredible. With the backlight on, it lasts around 10 days. With it off, a whopping 90 days! After a month of use with my current settings, the battery is still at 95%. Truly impressive.
Variants: There are three main versions to consider:
1. MX Mechanical – full size keyboard with keypad
2. MX Mechanical Mini – compact, no keypad
3. MX Mechanical Mini for Mac – compact, Mac-only
Switch options for MX Mechanical & MX Mechanical Mini:
1. Tactile Quiet
2. Clicky (my personal favourite!)
3. Linear

Compatibility is simple:

MX Mechanical & MX Mechanical Mini – works with Mac & Windows, keys show both Mac & Win labels
MX Mechanical Mini for Mac – Mac only, keys show Mac labels only

The major physical difference? The MX Mechanical has a numeric keypad on the right, while the Mini versions don’t. So basically, if you want flexibility across Mac and Windows, the first two options are great. If you’re strictly on Mac, the Mini for Mac is perfect.

If you’re thinking of buying one, I promise you won’t go wrong. It’s a solid, everyday keyboard that’s a joy to type on.

So, the question is:

Which one would you be more drawn to?

Hi! I’d love to see that keyboard and any pictures you could take of it.

It’s better to see what you’re talking about to get users’ attention 😎👍🏻

Franco_glz That’s right. Below are the photos of the products.

MX Mechanical: This is the one that I’ve got and using it as I type this all out.

MX Mechanical Mini for Mac:

If you have a look at the Labels on the keys for MX Mechanical, MX Mechanical Mini & MX Mechanical Mini for Mac, the MX Mechanical & Mini have the same Labels, apart from the MX Mechanical Mini for Mac and that is because, if you only use MacBook and or an iPad, then that’s the one for you.

To point out exactly what I’m talking about, have a look at the images below.
