Logitech unifying software review5/2/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() While Logitech says the K350 will work only with Windows PCs, anecdotally it also connected to my iMac. The K350’s wireless connection never dropped or sputtered during my testing, and it quickly reconnected after going to sleep following periods of inactivity. The K350 keyboard connects to a PC via the included USB Unifying Receiver, a wireless 2.4GHz USB dongle, which plugs in and works instantly without the need for drivers. (Logitech has a newer, slicker Logitech Options utility, but it doesn’t work with this keyboard.) Melissa Riofrio/IDG Connectivity In all, I counted 30 hotkeys on the K350 (assuming toggles count for two keys), 17 of which can be reprogrammed using Logitech’s aging SetPoint app. Logitech says its so-called “Comfort Wave Design” is intended to “support the actual, varied lengths of your fingers.” We’ll delve into the actual feel of the keyboard in a moment.Īnother attention-grabbing design feature on the K350 is its array of hotkeys and controls, complete with a central volume toggle surrounded by media playback buttons, prominent buttons for Photo, Music, Windows Media Center (which maps to Groove Music in Windows 10), Settings and Task View, plus a Zoom toggle, hotkeys for Microsoft Word, Excel, Edge, Search, E-mail, and more. The keyboard itself is both slightly curved and contoured in a wave shape, creating a pair of dips roughly where the A, S, D, F, and J, K, L, and semicolon keys sit. Melissa Riofrio/IDGīesides its imposing height, the K350 also boasts a padded palm rest. Thankfully, the second of two steps in the retractable feet raises the keyboard only 4 degrees, shaving a half-inch off its overall height. Indeed, if you extend its rear two-step feet to their full height (which props the keyboard up 8 degrees), the keyboard rises to a full 2.5 inches in height-so tall, in fact, that it blocked my keyboard tray from sliding back into my desk. Measuring 19 x 10 x 1.5 inches and weighing about 2 pounds, 3 ounces, the K350 is one of the biggest keyboards I’ve ever tested. 2X AA batteries preinstalled (3 years’ advertised battery life). ![]()
