Design and Portability
The K380’s design strikes a harmonious balance between form and function. Its slim profile (just 0.63 inches thick) makes it a breeze to slip into my laptop bag or backpack. Whether I’m working from a coffee shop or an airplane tray table, this keyboard’s footprint is refreshingly minimal. Plus, the pebble-like rounded edges add a touch of elegance.
Typing Experience
Comfortable is the keyword here. The keys on the K380 provide a satisfying tactile response without being too loud. Despite its compact size, I find myself typing with ease—even for extended periods. The spacing between keys is generous, and the low-profile scissor switches deliver a pleasant typing rhythm.
Multi-Device Magic
The K380’s standout feature is its ability to connect to three devices simultaneously. Pairing it with my MacBook, iPad, and Android phone is a breeze. A simple press of the numbered function keys (1, 2, or 3) switches seamlessly between devices. No more fumbling with Bluetooth settings—it just works.
Not so this one - it's fantastic. It's compact, works flawlessly, is black with bright white letters that are easy to read. It’s multifunctional, so can be used with Windows, Mac, Android or iOS. It uses Bluetooth instead of wireless and connected easily. Glad I bought it.
Recently I purchased a Lenovo y520 laptop as my daily puter. Even though I don't play computer games I wanted a rockin fast system and this one was it. Well little did I know along with all the newest and best parts like the extremely fast Solid state hard drive (which by the way if you don't have one in your computer you're missing out on one of life's greatest prizes and I wouldn't live without one), along with all of the goodies this baby came with, it also happens to have a rockin keyboard on it. I didn't even know that there was a difference between keyboards so this was a surprise to me to say the least. But I absolutely fell in love with the keyboard on this laptop. It's not why I bought it...but once you get the feel of the keys and used to them being backlit, it becomes VERY hard to go to anything else.,...and I would almost buy this laptop JUST for this keyboard now that I know it so well.
WHELP that brings me to where I am now. I also have two other desktop computers that I was trading a logitech MK320 Keyboard and mouse setup between and every time I would trade out the USB dongle I was thinking #1 how much of a pain in the butt it was to do that, but #2 just how difficult the clunky keys were when I went to type something more than a word or two to name files. Don't get me wrong..it's a cool set up...and Logitech does a great job for the price etc...but compared to my new Lenovo keys...they are sorely lacking. So I went to the store to try out a few keyboards.
Let me rephrase that, ALL of them....even the mechanical ones that gamers use...and typist use.....and the ones that click..the ones that don't...the ones that look like Chiclets and well... Literally every kind you can think of. And out of all of them I fell in love with these round keys on this little deal. I was stunned because just like my buddy said...you would think with round keys like this and the distance between them that you'd miss and screw up more often, but such isn't the case. I knew within moments of typing some crazy blurb that I was digging this experience. The one that I used at the store MIGHT have been the larger one with the numeric key pad but I couldn't remember for sure and just popped on this one without the keypad since I don't really need it and there isn't a size difference that I can tell. It types amazingly. I haven't regretted it ONE MOMENT!
The beauty of this thing is that you can connect it to three different devices. The funny thing is that I didn't think anything about that when I purchased it. I just figured I'd pair it with the one computer and call it good..but once you have the ability...before I knew it I had it connected to my main work computer...then my Ipad...and then my phone...which...it's really nice to be able to type on your text messages instead of swiftkey or pecking with your fingers. I hadn't even thought of doing that. In fact I only did it...and tried it because I could...and it turned out awesome. Connecting to each device is as easy as a push of the button and it types like NUTS. I have now become officially a keyboard snob. I would literally pay very good money for a great keyboard. The whole experience of not making mistakes when you type, where the whole process is natural is just an experience all it's own and that every person should have.
NOW...onto the cons of this thing. Well...I've only had this thing all of a few days, so i can't speak to the battery life, or the longevity of the keys etc, but the one thing that I can come right out and say is a bummer is that it's not backlit. I wanted the ease of typing with this specific keyboard because I tried other logitech keyboards that I wasn't real happy with, and there are only two models with these specific and lovely round keys and they AREN'T backlit. One with and without the keypad as I mentioned. They do have a wireless backlit keyboard but I can't speak to the way it types. I think I typed on that model and passed it up anyway as I was riffling through the models to test. So.... even though I've been ruined and spoiled now that my laptop is backlit and gives me the ability to find the home row easy as pie...AND you have to kind of feel your way around this one to get set up if you can't see really well in the dark..it's still worth it's weight in gold. It just types like a dream...really. And Logitech is a great brand you can trust. what's the downside? It's small so it's easy to use... BARELY smaller than a normal keyboard...types like the wind so I feel like a world class typist....and it's just....the coolest thing ever because it runs on everything effortlessly. I don't get emotional about most things...but the stuff that I really dig...and makes my life easier can get me that way. And this thing is definitely one of them. I have no regrets and I know you won't either.

It just types like a dream...really. And Logitech is a great brand you can trust. what's the downside? It's small so it's easy to use... BARELY smaller than a normal keyboard...types like the wind so I feel like a world class typist....and it's just....the coolest thing ever because it runs on everything effortlessly. I don't get emotional about most things...but the stuff that I really dig...and makes my life easier can get me that way. And this thing is definitely one of them. I have no regrets and I know you won't either.
**THIS KEYBOARD: Logitech K380 Multi-Device Bluetooth Keyboard – Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Android, iPad, iPhone, Apple TV Compatible – with Flow Cross-Computer Control and Easy-Switch up to 3 Devices – Dark Grey | $32 | This isn't my favorite keyboard in terms of aesthetics, and I hate that it has circular keys. I really don't understand why anyone would sacrifice utility for "aesthetics." I mean, I'm a real aesthete, but I don't find circular keys optically groundbreaking in any way, shape, or form. It's gimmicky at best. Unfortunately, it's the quietest of all the truly miniature keyboards, earning an 8/10 compared to the whisper-quiet Macbook Pro. The keys do make a soft click, and if you hit them with some force, they will make a bit of a soft "thud" sound, but nothing like the bass-like tones apparent in all five options above, save for the Vortec. So, why is that unfortunate? Because I'm a well experienced and pretty skilled typist, but the small, circular keys have me mistyping far more often than is usual for me, and the spacebar is a particular offender, which is incredibly irritating given how often it's used. It is, however, reasonably quiet, so I'm trying to convince myself that I'll get used to it and train myself to find the sweet spot on the spacebar. But I definitely read at least one other customer review complaining about the shoddy spacebar. So, my hope is tempered. Also, while the gray isn't particularly offensive (even though there are three bright yellow buttons on it, which I also don't like), it doesn't match the Mac aluminum gray or the black of my trackpad. It is available in blue, though, so I plan to buy the blue and go for a fun pop of color instead of cohesion and to just hope like heck that my hands get used to these stupid circular but amongst-the-quieteset-I've-found keys.
**Vortec Bluetooth Keyboard for iPad, iPhone, Android, Apple, Windows – Streamlined, Compact Multi Device Keyboard – Ergonomic Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard for Mac, PC – Computer Keyboard Bluetooth by Vortec | $25 | This isn't much of a miniature keyboard. Sure, it's smaller than one with a separate number pad, but it's wider than my entire 13" Macbook Pro, so the keys are spaced much further apart than I'm used to, and they're circular as well, which steals a little surface area from you that could make the wider spacing more doable. I eventually got into the habit of finding the backspace key with my pinky, but I made so many more typing mistakes due to the weird key spacing that I was constantly hitting it. It also has the brand name emblazoned on the spacebar, which I hate. The keys weren't loud, though -- it earned about a 8/10 on the quiet scale (the best score I've found in my search, all things considered) -- and they didn't have a distinctly cheap sound to them like some of the others. So, if you have big hands/if laptop keyboards are too small for you but you don't want a full-size keyboard, this one's almost certainly worthwhile. It's just not for me, but I'm 5'1" and perfectly comfortable using the original keyboard on my 13" Macbook Pro.
**Bluetooth Keyboard for Mac, OMOTON Compact Wireless Keyboard Compatible with MacBook Pro/Air, iMac, iMac Pro, Mac Mini, Mac Pro Laptop and PC, Grey | $24 | I wanted to love this keyboard so badly because it was super cheap, making it a contender for traveling with (without any anxiety) since it's easily replaceable, and it successfully appropriated Apple's aesthetics, offering a space gray keyboard with black, square keys vs. circular keys, which certainly appear to be trendy at the moment even though, from an ergonomics standpoint, I can't imagine why. I like the angle that it's at (vs. flat) as well. And the keys themselves aren't terribly loud. I'll give them (specifically) a 7/10 on the quiet scale. However, the keystrokes combined with the arguably cheap (again, $24) keyboard frame make a low, hollow, rumbling, bass-like sound that sounds terribly cheap and that I just can't get over, which made its overall acoustic score a 5/10. In addition, the surface texture of the keys is also not smooth, so the keys feel cheap as well, which was tough if you're sensitive to sensory stimuli. There are better options for only a little bit more money for sure.
**Satechi Slim X1 Bluetooth Backlit Keyboard – Illuminated Keys & Multi-Device Sync – Compatible with 2022 MacBook Pro/Air M2, 2021 MacBook Pro M1 Pro & Max, 2021 iMac, 2020 Mac Mini and More | $60 | For $60, I high really hopes for this one, especially since it also successfully appropriates Mac's aesthetics, offering a space gray keyboard with black, square keys. It even has the same on/off toggle as Apple's mini Magic Keyboard, so it's not like it's hiding what it's up to, and it does a much better job at "borrowing" from Apple than the OMOTON replica does, offering smooth keys and a flat form factor that doesn't shake or rattle or cause a din as you type. The only place that it falls short is in the keystroke sound. The keys have a sharp, clicky sound to them in addition to a bit of a bass-like rumble. It doesn't sound hollow, cheap, or rattly, and it isn's quite as noticeable as in cheaper keyboard. But it's there and, given everything else that's great about it, it's a real disappointment. I really wanted this one to work for me and am sad it won't.
**Kensington Multi-Device Dual Wireless Compact Keyboard - Black (K75502US) | $30 | This had the loudest keys of all seven keyboards I've tried, earning a 0/10 on the quiet scale, with 10/10 being the original Macbook Pro keyboard. It was absolutely unusable. You may as well buy a high-profile mechanical keyboard for all the sound this made.
**Macally Small USB Wired Keyboard for Mac and Windows - 78 Scissor Keys, 13 Shortcut Compatible Apple Keyboard - Mini Compact USB Computer Keyboard That Saves Space and Looks Great - Space Grey | $30 | As soon as I tried a wired version, I realized it was the wrong choice, regardless of how many batteries I have to go through or how short a wireless keyboard charge may last. It just looked messy and dated. The real reason I couldn't keep it, though, was that the keys were super loud and had a low, bass-like tone to them that makes them sound even louder than they might actually be decibel-wise. I'd give it a 3/10 on the quiet scale. I work in silence and this was an absolute racket reminiscent of, but not quite as bad as, a mechanical keyboard.
**Apple's Magic Keyboard (Mini, No Touch ID) | $99 | I bought this too thinking that it'd be the best option. However, it's only available in an aluminum form factor with white keys, so it doesn't match the aesthetics of my Macbook or the black Apple trackpad I bought because it matches my Macbook. And for $100, I really want to be happy with it. Also, even though I know it has the same keys as my laptop and it was similarly (I don't know about exactly as) quiet, there was something that just didn't feel the same about the Apple keyboard as its own disembodied entity, even though the laptop-attached keyboard is also flat. I think it might have had to do with the thinness of the form factor. I'm really not sure. But I wasn't $100 happy with it, so I returned it. If it were available in aluminum with black keys, I would no doubt own that and have called it a day, even given the weird "feel" issue I had. But it's not -- even though Apple could clearly charge more money for the other color, like it does with the trackpad. So, that's incredibly disappointing as well. And, even though it doesn't match my setup, it will be what I go back to if I can't get the Logitech to end up working for me.
I hope this helps! :)

♥ Gosto muito da funcionalidade de parear com até 3 dispositivos Bluetooth e alternar entre eles facilmente. É bem moderno.
♥ Não me atentei ao padrão USA do teclado na hora da compra, mas isso não atrapalhou no meu uso do teclado.

The keyboard feels very well-weighted - neither too light and not at all heavy. The four non-slip thin bushes at the corners are gripping the table beautifully - the keyboard won’t slide around at all.
Next - the typing feel - BEAUTIFUL and butter smooth. Keystrokes are super quiet, like they are damped or something. The key travel is pleasurable and very comfortable. There is enough feedback from the keys and they are not stubborn when pressed nor are they too light or too springy - great calibration. There is a comfortable slant built into the shape of the keyboard without the need for foldable legs.
The circular keys are well-sized and spaced. The keys have a very slight inward dip which I believe is contributing heavily to the typing comfort and joy.
The major reasons to pick K380 over K480 (older, slightly less expensive) were the smaller size, lesser weight and overall better design for my liking. And also the fact that even though the K480 has the dock/slot to keep tablets or phones, which is indeed a smart feature, most tablets will be used with protective covers which may not fit into that slot and also most covers or cases support magnetic or other “standing” features anyways.
Connectivity - easy, straightforward Bluetooth pairing. Can “remember” 3 devices at any given time (can be “connected” to only 1 device at a time though) and can switch between them instantly with the press of the dedicated three coloured keys at the top. The switching is implemented beautifully - takes only 1 second and maybe a few milliseconds to switch between the paired devices. There are tiny indicator lights above the three bluetooth device switching keys which light up for a few seconds when connected to a device and as a nice touch, they go out with a fade-out/theatre dimming effect! Little details.
Design - it’s sleek and beautiful. Perfect blend of playful and serious. Dark Grey colour looks very good.
It’s almost the same size as the Apple Wireless Keyboard.
1 thing to note - when connected to MacBook Pro, you don’t get to adjust screen brightness using the keyboard as those keys are marked for Bluetooth device switching. But you can adjust volume, music controls and mission control from the keyboard just like on Apple keyboard. This is not at all a major issue.
The physical on off slide switch is good. Auto sleep/power off feature avoids the need to use the on off switch daily.
Overall, thoroughly satisfied and even delighted with the keyboard. Grateful for Logitech to be making excellent products at great value price points.
Using an external keyboard and mouse, along with a raised stand for the laptop can VASTLY improve the experience of regularly working on laptops without the need to think of desktops. Best of all worlds.

Las teclas son estilo laptop, no tienen mucha profundidad pero se sienten mecánicas (no aguadas) y en general escribir en él es agradable.
El tamaño en general es pequeño, lo que aporta a la portabilidad y, a mi opinión, es más cómodo al no tener que mover las manos tanto.
Los materiales son rígidos y se sienten resistentes, el teclado no se flexiona y tiene el peso suficiente para no moverse por el escritorio, además tiene patitas de goma.
La conectividad es excelente, lo he usado con bluetooth sin problema en iOS, Android y Windows, cambiando entre ellos con su funcionalidad de múltiples dispositivos.
El soporte de software también es bueno, se pueden personalizar algunas teclas de función.
Lo recomiendo mucho.
