Compared to other wireless keyboards, one feature that makes the K580 stand out is its dedicated Google Assistant key. Instead of the usual function (F1 – F12) keys, the keyboard features Chrome OS shortcuts at the top for ease of access. Design-wise, it utilises scissor switches. Because it’s a full-sized keyboard as well, it comes with a numpad attached to it.
Additionally, there’s a base at the top of the keyboard where you can place your smart device for easy viewing. Moreover, because the K580 supports Logitech’s Easy-Switch mode, you can easily switch typing between up to three devices. Lastly, the keyboard’s battery can last up to 36 months and features an auto-sleep mode that powers down the keyboard when not in use. Further extending the battery life. Moving on, the M355 Portable Wireless Mouse is a lightweight mouse made for portability. For connectivity, users can choose between the built-in Bluetooth or simply use the USB receiver bundled with the mouse. Like the K580, the mouse also features the auto-sleep mode that powers down the mouse when not in use. On that note, the mouse’s battery can last up to 18 months.
The Logitech K580 will retail for US$49.99 (~RM 209) while the M355 will be sold for US$29.99 (~RM 125). At the time of writing, Logitech did not specify local availability and pricing. (Source: Logitech via Engadget, CNET // Images: Logitech, ChromeUnboxed)
