This is an MX Keys and MX Master 3 Review, I’m going to demonstrate why this keyboard and mouse duo have changed the way I work and improved my workflow and made me more productive.

Been looking at other reviews for both these and your review is by far the easiest to understand, as well as being the most in-depth, whilst covering what actually matters. Great job.

Thanks for the feedback mate.
*Important Info:* For everyone wondering, there is are two different versions of this set: a graphite and black version. The version reviewed here is the graphite version (for both mouse and keyboard). I've called logitech customer service and they explained that Europe only has the graphite version. Large retailers such as Best Buy (located in the US) sell the black version. Hope this helps, cuz I was confused as hell since I wanted the black one and lived in the Netherlands.

I have been locking at this for a docking station type scenario; your feature was the best I've watched, hats off to you! I also love the felt pad you're using, may be difficult to acquire it in the UK though. At time of writing the pair are around £200 which is a lot of money - but I rarely change/buy a keyboard, this is probably my second personal purchase of a keyboard!
This video is incredibly well done. Editing is very professional, B-roll footage is incredibly clear and always shows the tech at a flattering angle, you really do have a voice built for VO. Subbed!

Used this combo for about a year now and they're great, bluetooth is faultless, typing feel is above average even though it's a membrane board and the battery is outstanding. I'm only now upgrading the keyboard to a bluetooth mechanical board because i fancy doing some customising and upping my typing feel and sound.

If you have both the keyboard and mouse connected to 2 sperate computers, and hit the "1", "2", or "3" (F13, F14, F15) on the MX Keys, does the mouse also automatically switch as well?

Nice review, thanks for sharing! I only bought the Logitech MX Master 3 Mouse two weeks ago and I'm still very happy with it (the best I've ever had)! :)
Went into my local bestbuy with the intent of buying the Logitech K360, made a last second switch to the K800. After two weeks of use, I just returned it today for this one. I’m very much satisfied with this keyboard as I do a lot of coding. For anyone wondering, I use this for my MacBook Air.

Note: Although the Mac version says it’s only compatible with Mac and iPads, it actually still works with Windows. The top row of Mac specific buttons still function as well, except for the eject and screen capture buttons. If you connect the keyboard through the Logitech Options app, it tells you what they all do for Windows and you can still customize the 2 buttons that don’t initially have a function for Windows.

Speaking from a programing use case, more important than productivity, those provide really good ergonomics. The apple mouse is cool, but this mouse is way cooler and more comfortable. The keyboard also has more travel than apple's not so magical keyboard ;) I switched from them for the logitech pair and it seems like the right choice!

So basically everything you can do with the mac version of the mx keys you can also do with the mac/windows version. Why would anyone buy the mac restricted version then?
Best review I've see of the MX keyboard. I'm typically prefer mechanical keyboards, but I've been using a couple MX Master 3 mice on my home Mac and PC. I go back to work in the office on Monday and I'm considering this set as a option for work.
I just finished ordering a $2,900 laptop/docking station to convert from desktop to PC and for fun decided to chuck in this keyboard/mouse combo into the cart to see what it's like.... after watching this video I am not super excited for it!! I work from home and at my desk, and had no idea I could swap these devices from one PC to another, this is going to make my work life even better. Thank you so much for this thorough review :)
