Review Logitech Wireless Illuminated Keyboard K800

Prehistory

Actually I fell in love with this clave for a long time. Or rather, when it was announced. In fact - it was the keyboard - correcting errors and improving the wired version. And I liked it. And she was wireless.
In general - as soon as she appeared in our town, I ran and bought.
Read the review and my impressions under the cut.

Keyboard Characteristics

There are no clear characteristics on the site, so I will write myself :)

Type: full-size, with a digital block (105 keys)
Wireless: yes, unifying (2.4 Ghz, mini usb receiver, universal for multiple logitech devices)
Dimensions (W * D * H): 450 * 200 * 15 mm (approximately, measure by line)
Backlight: yes, white, 4 levels + light sensor + proximity sensor

Unpacking and packaging

The box looks like this:


When unpacking, we see this:

The package includes:

• Keyboard itself
• Micro USB charging cable
• Instructions
• Receiver (unifying)

As you can see - the package bundle for this device is not very abundant (with its price being 100 euros)

Feelings and impressions

The keyboard is made soundly, I can even say - very high quality. Backlash and other things - not noticeable. Materials are only the best. On an unremovable palm rest (indispensability - sorry, this is a minus) and the top - soft-touch plastic (matt !!!). Very pleasant tactile sensations from him. Similar plastic - keys. The edging of the key block is glossy plastic ... which is beautiful - but a minus.
Keys with short move, but clearly positioned. There is no space between the keys (like on laptops of ala makbuki or sony) - this is an amateur. However, the keys themselves are quality, quiet, lightly pressed.

The backlight is adjustable (4 levels) + light sensor. The backlight is white, the letters on the keys (both Russian and English) are laser engraved, the backlight shines through them. All OK.
Here is a picture of the backlight:


A separate thank you goes that the keys are still made standard - normal del, large enter ... Only with the left cipher (it is short) a bit namutili, but IMHO is the lesser of evils.

I liked the similar wired version of the illuminated keyboard FN key - which is the functionality of F1-F12 and further. Conveniently. And the Win key is free - which is correct because on my last keyboard (steel series 7g) the key was made instead of win on the left - and it was very inconvenient.
By the way, here's a photo of the comparison of visual dimensions (the smaller steel series lies on the k800):


Of the extra buns - charging does not require interruption of work - and the standard wire (microUSB) - so there will be no problems with charging. True, this very charge will have to be done quite often - the manufacturer declares "up to 10 days of battery life." I can’t check it yet - I don’t own so much. But the logic, why so little, is clear - the backlight is eating energy, and, apparently, considerable ... I hope if you cut down the clave for the duration of inactivity, it will live longer. In any case, it is easy to charge it, and this is a big plus.

Conclusions, pros and cons

Pros:

• Beautiful
• Standard layout (well, almost ...)
• Wireless
• Recharge from micro usb on the job
• Unifying - tiny receiver on several devices logitek

Minuses:

• The charge lasts only for 10 days (according to the manufacturer’s request)
• Short left shift
• Around the key block edging with glossy plastic
• Price of 100 euros

PS Ask, ask questions about the device - I will answer with pleasure.
