Logitech K800 Wireless Illuminated Keyboard Review - Mindpower

[Snapscape]

I own this keyboard and it DOES use AA batteries. Just remove the single screw at the bottom of the keyboard. They're a bit of a pain to remove because of the annoying plastic flap that covers them. I threw them out in exchange for Duracell rechargeables. The rounded keys is what I like the most. Good on power, unlike the Performance MX mouse. I'm switching that for a G700.

had to pause the video because i thought there was another video playing in a different tab.  audio is shit...

@FlossBandit so great to hear invalid criticism from someone who has no videos of their own.

[yesreen]

Would continuously leaving it charging--in the USB port--cause a problem?

[BroBryce2009]

@yesreen I actually think it would end up wrecking the battery over time. You're better off to just charge it once a month or whatever. It has really awesome battery life.

[yesreen]

@BroBryce2009 Thank you very much for the info! It really is a great keyboard.

3.5 head phone jack?

[BroBryceVlogs]

@gremlinkiller Ummm, no?

[smokemadbuds991]

awesome review. finally one on this product that the person didn't just read off the Logitech site lol. just picked one up with a bunch of other crap off amazon should be awesome. love the look and the fact it lights up.

[MindPower009]

@smokemadbuds991 Thanks smokie. It's a great keyboard IMHO. My family uses the PC as an entertainment center, and I also use it for a video & audio editing workstation. It's got really fast action and is very responsive, in addition to being the coolest wireless light-up home entertainment controller :)

[streamofawareness]

My computer is a desktop and the tower is lower down. Is the wireless signal like a TV remote where it has to have a clear line, or is it like a cell phone and can work through obstacles? Excuse the silly question--I'm not a tech savy person XD I just want to have this info before I decide to try it. I got one of these for Christmas today. Thanks!

[BroBryce2009]

@streamofawareness The bluetooth signal of the keyboard is able to transmit & recieve through most room obstacles. It works quite well even when it's not line-of-sight. :) Thanks for watching!

[streamofawareness]

@BroBryce2009 Thanks so much :)

[streamofawareness]

@BroBryce2009 Just wanted to respond again and say I'm typing on the keyboard now and it works great. Thank you again for answering my question.

[MindPower009]

@streamofawareness Rock on! I'm glad you're as happy as I am.  It's been a couple months now and I'm still loving it. I've only had to charge it 3 or 4 times too :)

[munky000527]

Thanks for the review man, really helpful. The music is kinda annoying after a while though.

[BroBryce2009]

@munky000527 Thanks for the tip. I'll remember that for the next vid and I'll try to mix it up a bit better.

[agustingr10]

Hi, great review!! Coud you please tell me the keyboard width and height? Thanks!!

[BroBryce2009]

@agustingr10 I just googled it, it looks like it is 8.2 x 2.3 x 18.4 inches ; 3.2 pounds

[agustingr10]

@BroBryce2009 Yes, thanks Bro!! I have just found it in Amazon website :p. Great keyboard, isn't it? Are you still happy with your bought or have you changed your mind?

[BroBryce2009]

@agustingr10 I still love this keyboard, and I'm looking to find one for my Mac

[DashJohn]

Great review! It is a for sure MUST buy. :) Thanks man for showing off all of the features. I did have one question for ya; on the back, are there two flipper level/height adjustment on the top of the back?

[BroBryceFX]

@DashJohn Yes, I think I showed 'em when I flipped it around, but I didn't bother to mention it. I could add an annotation pointing to them, that would probably be helpful. Thanks man!

[BroBryce2009]

@melindagilman Thanks for watching Mel!

[avi8torace]

I love that little receiver. I have one for my mouse and its the greatest invention ever. I don't have to worry about bending it like the old ones and I don't have to worry about a cable anymore.

Awesome keyboard!

[BroBryce2009]

@avi8torace Yes I totally agree! This is, by a long shot, the nicest keyboard I've typed on, at least in a VERY long time. As I had said in my previous keyboard review (where I show all the generations of the Logitech Trackball Recievers) I am really thankful they've come up with these new receivers! It's going to save me a lot of repair work and they work better than the previous generations, too.

[Tutbit]

Cool intro bro

[BroBryce2009]

@Tutbit Thanks Tutbit! Long time no see! :)

[joehandsome99]

The really cool thumbnail sucked me in to watching this video.

I have a wireless keyboard and mouse and they are great.

Cool video = Thumbs Up ~ Eric

[BroBryce2009]

@joehandsome99 Thank you! Yes, I think with the new generation of these devices I might not go back to wired. Battery life outlasted my Apple mouse too!

[nothadnotbad]

[BroBryce2009]
