Logitech K400 Wireless Touch Keyboard (QWERTZ, german keyboard layout) Black (Personal Computers)

Customer Review

The combined keyboard with touchpad and Unified Receiver is not only in the living room without a firm surface for a mouse useful but has been repeatedly demonstrated in the field as a control for exhibits and inaccessible built PCs. The Unified receiver also means that neither an explicit nor Pairing special drivers or Bluetooth are needed - just plug into a USB port, and the mouse and keyboard are already in the BIOS as a conventional wired USB solution. The range is mediocre but acceptable, as well as the susceptibility to interference at high load through other channels in the 2.4 GHz band. Another practical feature is the storage of very small USB dongle during transport / non-use in the battery compartment of the keyboard. A prominent slide switch on the top edge allows the complete disconnection of the keyboard, and prevents these empties through a permanently depressed during transport button battery.

Due to the small dimensions, the keyboard makes some compromises, many "normal" keys are only accessible via the function key combination, including the F-keys. Arrow keys were just so forced into a corner, but a numeric keypad is entirely absent. The keys are relatively small, but still much better than several compact keyboards that partially then use only membrane keys without good pressure point. Support in order to increase the angle of inclination of the keyboard, do not exist.

The touchpad is a little oversensitive, and interprets mouse movement sometimes as keystroke. But you can scroll with two fingers together, which compensates for the lack of a scroll wheel. Below the touchpad there is a left and right mouse button. On a middle mouse button you have to do without. An option to adjust the sensitivity for a mouse click on the touchpad, I have unfortunately not yet been found.

Conclusion: the keyboard is ideal for mobile applications and rapid, short-term remote control of PCs. As a permanent keyboard at a workstation or on a laptop this is, however, completely unsuitable as ergonomics very leaves to be desired. For mouse / touchpad and keyboard in a single device, which mobile use underscores as no flat surface is necessary.
