A $20.98 price drop compared to the previous deal
Happy Valentine’s Day all!
Absolutely
oh man I just bought this yesterday from JBHIFI via price match on amazon !!
How much…
I couldnt disagree more. I think it feels great to type on, pretty much exactly like a laptop. so it is a preference. As for the back light.. its completely adjustable so… that is a problem easily solved.
I like the laptop feel, but MX Keys just feels bad. I sold the first one, then a year later, tried another and still didn't like.
Third time's the charm
Got this earlier this week when it was $140. Thought it was a ridiculous amount to spend on a keyboard but I wfh and use it every day and I will say it’s a damn pleasure to use. It’s got some weight to it and feels very premium. I’ve used mechanical keyboards in the past and I prefer this.
I hate the thok-thok-thok of the mechanical keyboards. Brings back memories of crappy old library computers. Some people love them and that's great, but I like quiet keyboards.
It depends on the switch you use. The blue switch has the loudest "clicky" sound, while the red switch is quiet. I prefer a tactile feel when typing, so I choose the brown switch.
huge travel is annoying too .. there are some ultra slim optical switches that might be ok though
You can definitely have quiet mechanical keyboards, some even quieter than regular old membrane boards
Just need to get the right switches.
I haven't done my research on them. If I was to ever get another membrane, I've heard good things about KLIM.
As for switches for mechanicals, which ones are quiet and low travel?
Yep now every time im in the office i want to smash the office keyboard, compare using this at home omg
I bought one of these to take to work as well (and you can get the tax back)
Thought it was a ridiculous amount to spend on a keyboard
It gets much worse 😆
I love mine, my Mac keyb
Is it good as a travel keyboard? So, I just need to stick to one keyboard for home and away.
I'd recommend MX mini as a travel keyboard.
Price matched at Officeworks for another 5% off - thanks OP!
This one or a keychron?
I bought the B6 Pro a few weeks ago .. typing was just as bad as the MX Keys.
Recommend the Thinkpad Trackpoint II

Thank you
I want the solar rechargeable one
oh yeah … the new solar one, is that out yet? I got the Trackpoint for Lenovo EDU and only about $70. Downside is no backlight and CTRL in usual thinkpad location, not at corner.
No backlight is better than the crazy backlight on MX Keys S .. has such a nice quality feel, but I hate the typing experience. Not sure why. I like the laptop style scissor / membrane feel, just not MX Keys S.
Happy Valentine’s Day all!
Yeah good timing for long distance romance (or scam) witht those asian lady looking for love…
Thanks OP. Got Officeworks to PB for $112.
Had $10 back on Amex at JB so price matched there. Thanks OP.
Just be mindful that this is the UK keyboard layout, not the US one. So if you're more familiar with a US layout with the rectangular Enter key, you may not like this one as much.
Was just about to buy then saw your comment. Thanks for saving me!
Interesting, thanks for mentioning that. Some of the reviews that were posted show it with the US layout - one of them was from Australia. I’ve already ordered, so will update on which model I get.
Confirming that I received a US keyboard despite the image in the ad showing the UK version.
Happy days!! If that's what you were hoping for that is 😀
JB price match and their stock is US.
yea i got mine from JB in the end. it is the US version.
I just got mine delivered. It's US version. Note that Amazon AU sometimes put wrong photo of the product.
Ordered and got delivered today. As others mentioned Amazon listing is showing UK keyboard layout, but the one I received is US layout. YMMV.
Be good to see the combo on special, close to needed mouse & keyboard.
Did anyone having issue to get this MX Keys S come up in Logi Options? I connected via Bolt USB and works fine but can't get this show up in Logi Options.
Same on Windows and Mac.
Dont worry. It works now with Logi Options+
best keyboard ever
