I had an ordinary keyboard with high keys that worked beautifully, but mega loud was, on the addition to the time the letters were worn, as I work-related much tap. I also needed real physical force for the attack, which is unpleasant after hours of work. The Logitech K280 is, however, extremely quiet, the keyboard itself has the usual size, which is important if you have learned even write machine, because of the distances. The buttons are much lower, normal size and flat, the writing goes without familiarization phase immediately (today only receive). The inscription is very beautiful, decorated in bright white, according to the description also UV protected, highly visible when the lamp is on (or the screen is already bright enough in itself). Was immediately recognized by the system (Win 7). The F-keys have additional functions for search, home, volume, etc. Compared with the K290, there are these functions reversed, ie volume, etc. are highlighted and F1-12 blue in the background, I do not K280 but rather because I use a lot of the F keys. But technically available upon request from K290 this assignment are reversed (although the label would remain as it was printed). Since other units are held in connection with my PC in Black, I decided even at the keyboard just for the K280.
