Not the absolute cheapest this popular keyboard has ever been but it comes pretty close! Gerry is willing to give you $50 off if you select LatitudePay at checkout. Free click & collect if your local store has stock (…and you can get there - will be hard for Victorians) otherwise shipping is not overly expensive - it was only $9.95 to Launceston, Tas, when I checked.

From the screenshots this should be the US layout with the smaller Enter key. It's also the multi-device version and not the Mac-specific one, but it will work with both Windows and Mac computers.

Original LatitudePay deal link.

Edit: according to loketsin the comments below this can be pricematched with Megabuy at $189.95 and still qualify for the $50 off when using LatitudePay. Contact the HN online chat, give them the link to Megabuy, and if they agree to pricematch they'll give you a discount code (thanks to andrewtrinh for confirming this).

    Best keyboard I ever had.

    • ExtraSalt on 08/10/2020 - 13:11
      +2

      The Craft is the best ive ever had but if i wasn't now so reliant on the crown with custom app-specific shortcuts, the MX would be no.1 on my list. Battery on the Craft was decent for the first year was good, but it is horrible now.

      • henryph-am on 08/10/2020 - 14:37

        Hey I have the Craft too but wasn’t able to integrate the crown into my workflow. I wonder what and how do you work with it?

        • ExtraSalt on 08/10/2020 - 15:05
          +1

          i use a combination of Automator & Applescript. I'm not very good at programming though lol so it's a learning curve, but i save them as apps and then get the crown to launch specific processes that i use multiple times a day for work. Like i have one that launches an app to enter info and create a group of folders/sub-folders. Another to launch and send as an email attachment, and then another to zip folders, send via Hightail and then archive.

      excuse potentially stupid question, does this have a PrintScreen key? I use this key quite often for work.

      • Bedgrub on 08/10/2020 - 17:01

        No, it doesn’t. I do this a lot too, but Win+Shift+S suits my needs better.

          Good news, it actually does! It's the key with the camera icon.

            +2

            @Jebus: Best part (IMO) is you can map these keys to something else, I mapped my camera button to windows snipping tool so I can quickly select what I need.

      • jozzas on 08/10/2020 - 17:20

        It comes with software that lets you customise any key or key combo, so you can set this to be whatever you want. But no, not one labeled with PrintScreen. those spots are taken up with the device switching keys

        • vol4321 on 08/10/2020 - 17:32

          Isn't the default print screen key the one with the picture of a camera? The key above the forward slash on the number pad?
          That's what I use it as on my MX keys. Admittedly, I have the Logitech Options software running that lets me reassign it, but I thought it was the default key anyway.

          • alterego13 on 08/10/2020 - 17:40

            @vol4321: Yes, that's it. It is the default PrintScreen key.

      • alterego13 on 08/10/2020 - 17:39

        As vol4321 pointed out below, the 'camera' key above the num-pad is a dedicated PrintScreen key. Using one right now and confirmed it does 'printscreen'.

      • khoa2812 on 08/10/2020 - 21:07

        Yes. that's the button on top of the numpad area with camera icon

    • sweepy on 08/10/2020 - 17:02

      Me too - fantastic.

    • Calran on 08/10/2020 - 20:23

      Why was it the best? Anything you can share with us? How do the keys feel and what's your favourite feature?

      • salesberg on 09/10/2020 - 21:25
        +1

        The keys have the right amount of resistance to not need too much work nor too loose that there is no tactility. Plus the feedback while typing is precise, hard to put it in words, kind of like, the brain knows when the key has been actuated so the finger can move on to pressing the next key. This is happening fast, like my typing is not particularly fast, but with this keyboard I can take a dictation if spoken at a moderate speed.

        Then comes the shape, the concave curve slips your finger towards the center of the key while pressing.
        So over all there are lots of little things that adds up for a good typing experience, but feelings are harder to explain.

        I did make a video about this not so long ago, there are some close up shots where the shape is shown at an angle, it makes more sense if you look at the keys like that:

  • frogduck on 08/10/2020 - 13:05

    Is this good for gaming (I don't really use macros, or RGB)? or should i get one specific for gaming?

    My actual gaming usage is probably like 20% vs other uses

    Currently using a Logi mech gaming keyboard, but this looks nice!

      • salesberg on 09/10/2020 - 21:29

        There is no specific reason why one can not play games with this keyboard.
        If it is WSAD keys that matter, one will have to have extremely specific needs before needing "better" keyboard.

    • vol4321 on 08/10/2020 - 17:33

      I game with mine, and I don't notice any issues.

  • BewareOfThe Dog on 08/10/2020 - 13:08

    These are fantastic. I use this instead of the Apple Magic keyboard, plus I can use it on my Surface and phone as well.

  • Youbidmetoit on 08/10/2020 - 13:11

    This makes it so easy to use for multiple devices (eg. Work laptop, home PC and phone). All you need to do is press the device you want to use it for. It uses the Logitech adapter or Bluetooth, so it works fantastically with an MX mouse if you have one of those also. Keyboard feels solid and charges with USB C.

  • mynamewahhhwahh on 08/10/2020 - 13:40

    • jackwilk on 08/10/2020 - 14:08

      Lasts me easy 5-6 days of continuous use - 8-10 hour days. Didn't test longer as I recharge over the weekend.

    • Jebus on 08/10/2020 - 14:50

      I think it's 10 days with constant backlighting as well. With the lights turned off it's up to 5 months… don't even remember the last time I plugged mine in.

    • poppingtags on 08/10/2020 - 15:58

      That's with backlighting, without backlighting it apparently lasts 5 months. I got mine this week, so can't really comment on battery life - but really enjoying the keyboard so far.

    • Bedgrub on 08/10/2020 - 17:04

      In my experience, 20+ days of continuous usage.

    • salesberg on 09/10/2020 - 21:31

      This will probably be too heavy if you want to use it from your lap for TV, otherwise sure you can.

    • poppingtags on 08/10/2020 - 21:59

      I'd recommend something like the K830 or the K400 for a smart TV as it has a built in trackpad as well.

    When you price match with Megabuy $189.95, and combined with HN LatitudePay $50 discount, final price is $139.95. This amount is the current absolute lowest/best price for this keyboard. It is better than the deal OP referred to (that one even requires postage). I just ordered one.

  • petebern on 08/10/2020 - 15:15

    How does MX compare to this from Dell : https://www.dell.com/en-au/shop/dell-multi-device-wireless-k…

    The Dell doesn’t have illuminated keyboard and runs off AA’s (but I’m sure most OB’s have spare Eneloops around). Same premise with multiple devices an has a mouse extra. I ordered this one with my Dell monitor and am awaiting delivery today.

    • Chazzozz on 08/10/2020 - 15:24

      They look similar in connection specs. Post your thoughts on OB when you get it, I'm sure others would be interested to see what you think.

      Those who already own the MX Keys rave about it's feel and build quality. It's also designed purposefully to be used with both Windows and Mac (i.e. O/S keys mapped correctly for each), whereas the Dell will be primarily Windows (will need adjustment to work with Mac).

      • xbbl on 08/10/2020 - 15:26

        At a quick glance, the mx keys is full size and dell is compact. Depends what you're after

      • mito on 08/10/2020 - 16:30

        Does this mean when you are switching between mac and PC the keys are where they are meant to be? Specifically the windows and command keys?

  • giventofly on 08/10/2020 - 15:25

    Good keyboard - Logitech Options sucks, and this has a known issue whereby it'll repeat the key if you press it too often - this has never affected my typing, but it impacts volume control. Solution is to not use Logitech Options.

    It's really comfy to type on and build is decent - slight bit of flex in the middle.

    Recommended.

    • mangoed on 08/10/2020 - 15:35

      Ha, thanks for the heads up. I ran into this issue with volume keys a number of times and could not figure what's going on, why the volume keeps returning to zero. Turning the keyboard off and on helps, but I had no idea the problem is with Logitech software.

  • JudasX on 08/10/2020 - 15:26

  • spinferno on 08/10/2020 - 15:46

    • poppingtags on 08/10/2020 - 16:01

      Yup, really nice step up in build quality, feel and functionality.

      • spinferno on 08/10/2020 - 22:08

        Thanks mate. the k800 does flex a little when being moved, so it's good to hear about the build quality of the MX!

    • Ozbargainerd1 on 08/10/2020 - 16:22

      Actually I did the move to MX from K800 and have gone back to the K800.

      Big issue for me - The MX Keys does not have a palm rest and the sharp edge is actually quite uncomfortable for me.
      The other issue - it's not very good for gaming, just felt unnatural/uncomfortable for when you want to continually apply force on a particular key (W-A-S-D for example).

      And if you're game (silly?) enough to pay the crazy price for the add on palm rest (facepalm), it's not the most comfy and looks pretty gross after awhile.

      If they made a K800 with 3-device bluetooth support, I would be all over it.
      MX Keys- the keys feel glorious if you like the K800 but are uncomfortable on the wrists/palms afterawhile.

      • arkdog on 08/10/2020 - 16:42

        Do you think one could get a rest pad, for the MX Keys to help with the issue?
        Looking at the keyboard, I've got this exact concern.

        • mangoed on 08/10/2020 - 16:49

          They designed MX Palm Rest but it's quite expensive, you can get something unbranded much cheaper and hardly notice any difference.

      • spinferno on 08/10/2020 - 22:15

        yeah the lack of a multi device support is the main reason why I scored the multiple K800s. they used to be had for about a hundred, but now that it's discontinued, they are costing like ~160 now.
        The soft, shallow keys are just so damn silky, and I do a lot of coding, so I can type heaps quicker and more accurately with the K800. Maybe I'll head to a store to test drive the MX and see what all the fuss is about.

    • Adamiam on 08/10/2020 - 17:03

      I came from a K800 myself that was getting outdated, so moved to this. I prefer typing on the MX Keys, they feel "clickier" to me and the thinner profile is nice and easy to type cleanly on.

      I originally went to a mechanical Das Keyboard 4, but found the lack of a palm rest combined with the height of the keyboard to be an issue with how I type. The MX Keys I don't have this issue - It doesn't have a palm rest, but the keyboard is very flat, so I'm happy to rest my hands on the desk.

      I also play games on this keyboard and have never had an issue personally. YMMV!

  • Raj09 on 08/10/2020 - 16:04

  • Vladdo on 08/10/2020 - 16:24

    How many receivers does it come with? Seems a bit pointless if it can switch to 3 devices but only has 1 USB plug.

    • Chazzozz on 08/10/2020 - 16:29

      Multi-device support will likely be via Bluetooth only. The 2.4GHz Unifying receiver is usually for devices that don't support BT or where you don't want other devices interfering.

      • mangoed on 08/10/2020 - 16:46

        Not true, multiple Unifying receivers are also supported.

      • Adamiam on 08/10/2020 - 17:06
        +1

        I regularly switch between two unifying receivers (both hooked up to PCs) and my phone (bluetooth). It's so seamless even between technologies that I can basically rotate back and forth between devices with no issues or reconnecting periods.

    • Super Saiyan on 08/10/2020 - 16:39

      It comes with one receiver.
      I have my MX Keys and MX Master 3 connected to that one receiver on my main PC and then also to my 2nd laptop through Bluetooth.
      Super simple to switch between

      • Nuggets on 08/10/2020 - 18:20

        I've never been able to find an answer for this (or maybe I just suck at Google)

        When you switch to the second computer on the keyboard, does the mouse also switch? Or do you have to switch the mouse separately?

        I currently have a MX Anywhere 2S and I have to manually change the mouse.

        Cheers

    • mangoed on 08/10/2020 - 16:45

      One Unifying receiver can be used to connect both keyboard and mouse. So if you buy a kb and a mouse separately, you basically get a combo with 2 receivers, can plug the receivers in different devices, and use kb and mouse with each of them. If your device has bt, you don't need a receiver at all.

    So I just posted on the MX 3 deal so I'll post here too

    I've had this keyboard for a year….and it's the best keyboard I have ever owned in 15 years. Everything from the clicks, the finger wells, the tactical feeling of the keys is perfection. It's actually cathartic to have both a minimal keyboard and one that feels so nice with every keystroke

    The best thing is though, that the low profile keys and the finger wells have made me type much faster and with way less errors in typing. I want to buy 10 of these just because logitech love to cancel amazing products and never bring them back again (looking at you G600 MMO Mouse…RIP to a real one)

    There is ZERO input lag, I use it for gaming all the time and there is absolutely no perceptible difference between this and wired keyboards for me.

    It's sleek, minimal, very functional and it's my favourite peripheral by a mile. I payed $220 (I think) for this back before covid and I'd pay more if it broke
