FULL STORY ======================================================================
Accessory maker Logitech has just launched the Keys-To-Go 2 , a
super-slimline keyboard for tablets and phones thats designed for working on the move. It provides a much-needed update to the original Keys-To-Go and offers a range of intriguing new features.
Weighing 222g, the Keys-To-Go 2 is thin and lightweight, which should make it ideal for dropping into a bag when you hit the road. It comes with a built-in cover to protect it from the kinds of scuffs that can frequently occur when working and traveling. The cover also doubles up as a makeshift stand.
Logitech says the keyboard is multi-OS compatible, and it can switch between three different devices connected using Bluetooth. Theres one version with a Universal keyboard layout that works with Android, ChromeOS, Windows, iPadOS, iOS and macOS, plus an Apple-specific edition with a layout for iPadOS, iOS and macOS.
The Keys-To-Go 2 is partly constructed from recycled plastic, with this material making up 36% of the Pale Grey and Graphite versions and 33% of the Lilac model. The aluminum in the keys is also apparently made with renewable energy, while the products paper packaging comes from FSC-certified forests. Your next iPad accessory? (Image credit: Logitech)
The original Logitech Keys-To-Go launched in 2014 and has had a few revisions since then. The new version, though, is a totally redesigned product and
looks very different to its predecessor.
Whereas the first Keys-To-Go had thin fabric keys and lacked a cover, the new version features scissor switches underneath its keys, which should make for
a better typing experience. The keyboards chassis, meanwhile, is a more traditional plastic affair.
The original Keys-To-Go had a thickness of 6mm. The new edition runs from 4.35mm at its thinnest to 8.97mm at its thickest point. Instead of rechargeable or AA batteries, it uses a coin cell that Logitech says will
give it up to three years of juice.
Logitech is selling the Keys-To-Go 2 for $79 / 79 (around AU$150). If youre after a portable keyboard that works with multiple devices at once, it could well be worth a look.
