K380 Multi-Device Bluetooth Keyboard Black/Yellow (920-007558 / 920-007582 / K380) Review

Introduction

The Logitech K380 Multi-Device Bluetooth Keyboard, in its stylish black and yellow color scheme, promises seamless connectivity and compact design. I’ve been using this keyboard for the past several weeks across my laptop, tablet, and smartphone, and this review shares my experiences. The model numbers I tested were 920-007558 / 920-007582 / K380 and I’ll be focusing on the overall user experience rather than minute variations between models.

Features

The K380’s key selling points are its multi-device pairing, compact size, and long battery life. Pairing up to three devices is incredibly convenient, allowing for quick switching between my laptop for work, tablet for leisure reading, and smartphone for messaging. The Easy-Switch button makes this transition virtually instantaneous. The compact design is perfect for travel, fitting easily into a laptop bag. Logitech claims a two-year battery life, a claim I’ve found to be largely accurate in my testing.

Performance

The typing experience on the K380 is surprisingly comfortable. The keys are well-spaced, providing a pleasant tactile response. While not as satisfying as a full-sized mechanical keyboard, it’s perfectly adequate for extended typing sessions. The Bluetooth connection has been rock-solid, with no noticeable lag or dropped connections. The low profile design is great for saving desk space, and the keyboard feels sturdy and well-built. The range is excellent, allowing me to type from across my living room without issue. However, I did find the keys a little shallow for my preference, though this is largely subjective.

Pros & Cons

Pros: Multi-device pairing, compact size, long battery life, comfortable typing experience, good Bluetooth range, robust build quality.

Cons: Shallow key travel (subjective), slightly less satisfying tactile feedback compared to larger keyboards.

Final Verdict

The Logitech K380 Multi-Device Bluetooth Keyboard is a fantastic option for anyone looking for a portable and versatile keyboard. Its multi-device functionality, compact size, and impressive battery life make it ideal for use with laptops, tablets, and smartphones. While the shallow key travel may not suit everyone, the overall typing experience is comfortable and efficient. I highly recommend the K380 for its ease of use and portability. It’s a strong contender in its price range and a great addition to my tech arsenal.
