Some weird function key choices

The Logitech MX Mechanical keyboard has me nervous that the company has incepted me and sees what I dream about: the MX Keys but with mechanical switches.

That's right — all the peak convenience and productivity of the chiclet-style MX Keys, but with the tactile response of mechanical switches. Logitech nails the essentials with awesomely tactile switches and long battery life, alongside taking this chance to address problems with the original MX Keys such as adding an adjustable tilt. Though, power users may lament the weird function key choices like an emoji key.

Combine this with the Logitech MX Master 3S, however, and you've got a belter of a keyboard and mouse combo. Once again, Logitech sits atop the throne of productivity mice with the MX Master 3S. For right-handed people, this is an incredible mouse for getting things done with a fantastic ergonomic shape and a comprehensive software suite for maximizing usability. Plus, with quieter switches and an improved sensor, you have the versatility to work on big projects and tiny details alike.

If you’re working for long stretches of time, above all else, comfort is key. While it might look like it was designed by M.C. Escher, Microsoft’s ergonomic keyboard is built from the ground up with comfort in mind. Reverse tilt angles promote straight and neutral wrist positions, a natural arc throughout the split keyset design mimics the curved shape of the fingertips and there’s ample wrist support thanks to a sizable palm rest. It may take some getting used to, but there’s no doubt that the reduction in stress and fatigue on your joints will make it all worthwhile.

It features seven buttons, one of which is a customizable Windows button that can be set to offer quick and easy access to the Start menu or Cortana.
