Logitech Keys-To-Go 2: Ultra Thin & Light Keyboard That Works With Chromebooks

・・・・・・・

When Logitech announced the new Keys-to-Go 2, I was actually a little underwhelmed. Specifically, I thought they were simply taking the (admittedly great) Casa Keys from the Casa Pop-Up Desk and slapping a cover on it. While I think they should totally sell the Casa Keys as a standalone item, I no longer think they need to. The new Keys-to-Go 2 keyboard is that good.

Not only is this not a dupe of the Casa Keys, the new Keys-to-Go 2 keyboard is something unlike anything I've ever tried out before. It is light, but not flimsy; small, but not cramped; simple and yet wildly useful. This is a keyboard I want in my bookbag right now.

$80USD is *wayyyy* overpriced for what this thing is...

I always switch that "everything" button to "caps lock." I'm a touch-typist. And "caps lock" is just part of my muscle memory. Having it do anything else causes chaos when I'm typing.

I have been using the JLab GO keyboard with my Lenovo Duet 5 for a year or so now, and love it. But I really like the feel of the keys on the Duet's keyboard over the more full-keyboard style keys, so I'm actually kind of excited to give this Logitech Keys-to-Go 2 a try.

You forgot to actually type on it. How does it type in your expereince?

I actually tried one out and in my opinion, it's terrible and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The spacebar is the main issue, with is designed in a way that it tilts to the back (it's secured to the board with some construct at the front (the side of the user) that makes it tilt to the back). The very low amount of key travel makes for a really uncomfortable experience. But the spacebar is the main issue. When doing typing tests, even though it's uncomfortable, all the mistakes I make are spacebar related.

It's fine to use f.e. in front of your TV, while doing some youtubing or to type search entries in some streaming service. But to actually use if for productivity purposes it's simply not good enough. I wouldn't even want to use it to type in comment sections like this one. I compared to my really old Asus Transformer Android Tablet's keyboard and that types way better.

To me, this along with a mouse & adjustable laptop stand is way more useful than that "Casa" package.

Why haven’t large companies like Logitech come out with usb c dongles? My job just gave me a tablet that has one usb a and one usb c port.

Did the development team not do their UX research? thinking about how the inside of the cover becomes the base for the keyboard and then gets dust and dirty the keyboard itself. it's useless then

Thank you for sharing this! I have been using a Model M for the past 5 years and it just not conventional to carry a keyboard THIS large with me on an airplane.

I received the keys2go V1 in a swag bag and although I would not have paid full price for it, it did come in handy when I was packing light, sually when I was using my IPad.

I don't recall if it worked on chrome but then again I'm just now evolving to more and more Chromebook use.

[NestorCustodio]

I do wish Surface-like mice were a more common form factor. That specific mouse was HOT GARBAGE, but the market for a lightweight mouse that folds flat for maximum portability/baggability is definitely there.

[djoetma]

Question, did you have any issues while typing? The space bar lacks feedback in my KTG2 when I hit it at the lower side, especially on the most right side. Did you have this problem as well, or does the spacebar feel perfectly supple like all other keys?

[DarcyWhyte]

I got a question for you.... I just got this keyboard and it looks nice...

How would I type ñ or éíóúá while the keyboard is connected to my Android phone?

[paulwinter]

Would the keyboard be compatible with the steamdeck?

[AnhLeQuoc-yv]

what's model logi white keyboard??

[AnotherScotland]

So I messaged Logitech two months ago asking if a new model was due out. They said they couldn't tell me. I bought the original and a month later the new one comes out! Can anyone tell me if there's a huge funcitonal upgrade? I'm onl really using it to write stuff on my iPhone.

[rjmcneely]

if my Chromebook has a keyboard when would I need this?

[FigWidIt]

That’s incredibly thin!! Wow, would have loved one of these back when I was in School.

[CareWorldBuild]

Appreciate the mention for us fans of Linux that we will be ok! 🎉😂

[blinkofaneye]

I loved the apple keyboard folio but I don't think they are bringing it back. This seems to be the next best think, even if it doesn't magnetically attach to the ipad. The magic keyboard is nice, but too heavy. I don't want to turn my thin ipad into a brick, so this will work fine.

I would use it with a phone not a chromebook
