You can toggle function key mode on and off by hitting Fn + Esc. There are, however dedicated volume up and down buttons to the right of F12. There are no dedicated media keys but, keys on the function row double as brightness, mute, emoticon and media keys. However, using the Options+ software, I turned the show/hide screen key into a print screen key. Annoyingly, Logitech does not provide a dedicated print screen key, even though most full-size keyboards have one of those and don’t have a calculator button. Above those keys are three dedicated buttons to switch to each of the three device profiles, no key combo required.Ībove the numpad sit four shortcuts for calculator, search, lock and show/hide desktop. The Logitech MX Mechanical has a full, 110-key layout, including a numpad, arrow keys and a block of keys for Ins, Home, Del, End, Pg Up and Pg Dn. The Mechanical Mini is 12.3 x 5.2 inches (312.6 x 131.7 mm) and 1.3 pounds (612g) which is much smaller than the iQuinix A80 Explorer (12.6 x 6.3 inches, 3.5 pounds).

Putting height aside for a moment, the MX Mechanical is 17.1 x 5.2 inches (433.9 x 131.7 mm) and 1.8 pounds (828 g) which is a bit more compact than Razer’s full-size Black Widow V3 Pro (17.7 x 9.8 inches, 450.7 x 248.4 mm). The Mini fits perfectly into a bag on the go, though the longer, full-size keyboard sticks out of anything but the largest backpacks. The fact that they're so thin makes them easy to put in a bag. However, the bottom doesn’t grip the desk well enough and it can slip out of place sometimes. It doesn’t have the soft gel or memory foam that I like to see in my rests, but it is fairly soft and has a nice, smooth surface. I bought the $20 MX Palm Rest, which is just 0.31 inches (7.8 mm) tall and 16.5 inches (419 mm) wide, which makes it ideal for the MX Mechanical but overlong for the MX Mechanical Mini. Fortunately, there are low-profile wrist rests on the market and Logitech even makes one, which was designed originally for the MX Keys but works fine with the MX Mechanical. When I couldn’t pair my HyperX Wrist Rest with the MX Mechanical, I was very frustrated. If you don’t use a wrist rest, this won’t matter to you, but I can’t live without one. The case sides and back are the same dark gray plastic while the area under the keys is a matte aluminum plate.Ī shorter keyboard means that you can’t use a standard-height wrist or palm rest, because you don’t want a rest that’s too tall and forces you to poke downward at your keys. The thin keys are two shades of gray with letters and numbers having the lighter hue and special / modifier keys getting the darker one.

The Logitech MX Mechanical and MX Mechanical Mini share a boring, but professional aesthetic that looks fairly premium and won’t offend or excite anyone. However, you have to be comfortable with a low-profile design, which limits your choice of wrist rests. In either form factor, the keyboards offer a typing experience that’s on par with many of the best wireless keyboards, a ton of customization options and easy switching between PCs. We tested with two units: an MX Mechanical with blue switches and an MX Mechanical Mini with browns. Both keyboards are low-profile and available with a choice of clicky blue, linear red or tactile quiet brown low-profile switches, all of which are made by Kailh. The $169 Logitech MX Mechanical is a full-size, 110-key keyboard while the $149 MX Mini offers a more compact layout with just 84 keys. Now, Logitech has introduced the MX Mechanical and MX Mechanical Mini, two wireless MX keyboards that use Flow and come with a choice of mechanical switches. But no one who is serious about their typing would lay fingers on a non-mechanical keyboard if there was a better option. Up until now, if you wanted a wireless keyboard that would work with Logi Flow, you were limited to Logitech’s MX Keys series.
