Logitech Pop Keys Review: Cute and Colorful Leave a comment
There’s additionally an identical mouse for every of the Pop Keys’ colorways. Whereas it’s not as ergonomic as I’d prefer it to be, I discovered it snug to make use of over the previous couple weeks, and it’s enjoyable to have the 2 gadgets match so completely (the Pop Mouse in Daydream has a purple and inexperienced physique just like the keyboard, and a yellow middle wheel to match the yellow keycaps).
In contrast to different mechanical keyboards, there are not any RGB lights of any variety. You will get colour from solely the keys and physique of the keyboard, quite than rainbow lights beneath the keys. I did not discover that I missed it or wanted RGB lights, but when it is a key characteristic for you, it is the one motive I might advocate in opposition to this keyboard.
Specific Your self
The entire level of the Pop Keys is that you just don’t must customise it to get the enjoyable colours. Nevertheless, there is nonetheless room for slightly customization. Particularly, emoji customization.
When you add it to your laptop, the Pop Keys will immediate you to put in Logi Choices+, Logitech’s customization app. It’ll work fantastic with out it, however that is the way you customise the keyboard’s emoji keys. Sure, this keyboard has 4 keys on the far proper which you can pair with any emoji! Nicely, any emoji from Logitech’s listing, which is pretty commonplace, and you may’t customise it. However nonetheless, enjoyable!
There’s a fifth button beneath that brings up a grasp listing of emojis so that you can select from, so you’ll be able to have 4 favorites after which simply entry any emoji you need with a faucet of a button. The Pop Mouse has a button beneath the middle wheel that does the identical factor. The Pop Keys additionally comes with eight emoji keycaps which you can change out on the keyboard itself to match your emoji of selection. Mine are the center, coronary heart eyes, sob, and laughing emojis. There’s additionally a ninth keycap with three faces on it, meant to represent the bigger emoji menu which you can open to decide on an emoji outdoors of your prime 4.
It’s actually enjoyable, however if you happen to’re a heavy Discord or Slack consumer like myself, the buttons can’t aid you react to messages or entry any customized emoji, so that you may not end up utilizing it as usually as you hoped. Nonetheless, it’s a enjoyable little characteristic on an already nice mechanical keyboard. When you’re in search of a simple method to get a colourful mechanical keyboard, it is a unbelievable start line.
