Logitech K600 TV Keyboard w/Touchpad

***Update 2022*** Owned it for two years and stillperforms like new. Connects easily to my Hisense smart TV, making navigating Google TV an excellent experience. Pairs nicely and plays well as in all in one input decilvice for the Steam Deck I’ve owned the Logitech K600TV for a few months now and this is my unbiased review/opinion. Being a user of the Logitech K480 keyboard I had no problems with initial setup. THE QUICK READ Overall, I think the layout and functionality of the Logitech K600TV is great for the various use cases of the keyboard. I would love for it to have come with built in clips or longer rubber feet to make the keyboard more ergonomic. You can’t beat the features and portability of this mighty little deck! I also paired it with a case to protect it from pet hair and keep it safe from bumps while in my backpack.

The Logitech K480 works great though. SETUP, FEATURES, FUNCTIONALITY, COMPATIBILITY REVIEW Firstly, I don’t use this keyboard connected with a smart tv. I purchased this keyboard for use with my Google Pixel Slate Chromebook tablet. For this purpose the K600 is wonderful. I connect the keyboard via bluetooth and the Chromebook recognizes it without any issue. All the buttons function as intended. If you don’t have a ChromeOS specific shortcut key you can hold down the FN key and the accompanying function key at the top of the keyboard to get the job done. The Pixel Slate switches to desktop mode as soon as it is connected to the keyboard. I also tried the keyboard connected via the supplied USB dongle and putting the keyboard in ChromeOS mode was simple. If you need any help just refer to the website listed in the packaging. *IF you want to pair the K600 using the dongle you SHOULD NOT pair it with a device via bluetooth and Easy-Switch key number 1. This will disable any device from using the dongle connection and you have to use Logitech’s software to reassign the button to the dongle connection. TYPING EXPERIENCE Typing on the Logitech K600 is laptop smooth. The keys are not mushy, they have a quick actuation, and my finger types fit the rounded keys perfectly. I do a lot of blogging and homeschool planning with this keyboard and my typing accuracy via this keyboard is better than I was getting with the Logitech K480. The keys on that keyboard don’t respond fast enough for my needs. The keys on this keyboard are as whisper quiet compared to the K480. Since I do more work at night while everyone else in my household is sleeping I prefer this, even if I am still partial to a mechanical keyboard with blue switches. If you want a bluetooth keyboard that is closer to a mechanical with good clackiness go for the k480. DEVICE COMPATIBILITY For my needs, the K600 fits my lifestyle. I work and play on my Pixel Slate while sending the occasional text or email using a LG V30 Android device. I also own a Windows 10 laptop that my son uses. This keyboard is connected to all three devices and switching between devices is as simple as pressing a button. I haven’t experienced any bluetooth disconnects either. The Logitech K600 does not work well with the Logitech M557 bluetooth mouse. The mouse causes the keyboard to double and triple letters while typing via a bluetooth connection. TRACKPAD AND MOUSE FUNCTIONS I think the trackpad on this keyboard is a good size. It is compact, but I can still use three finger gestures when needed. I use the left and right mouse click buttons way more than I initially thought I would. They are great for selecting text in a document while editing. The D-pad located at the top right of the keyboard is also good for productivity and screen scrolling. Button in the middle of the D-pad acts as a left mouse click. ***UPDATE*** New k600tv keyboard test after trying to connect different. If you have a bluetooth mouse connected and the keyboard does not type correctly try this. Unplug the keyboard dongle. Put the keyboard in pairing mode using a different EasySwitch key. In my case I used #2. Pair the keyboard using bluetooth. Problem solved. This allows you to keep the keyboard connection tied to the dongle and still use the keyboard in bluetooth mode. This solved the problem I was having with my Logitech M557 bluetooth mouse and the K600 not cooperating well together. So, in short, DON’T pair the keyboard via multiswitch #1 it can cause problems with the keyboard when other devices are connected. Honestly, this makes the keyboard only able to connect to two devices via bluetooth and one via the USB dongle. If you ever need to reset the dongle and pair it back to EasySwitch 1 you need a computer able to run the Logitech Unifying Receiver software. This software will also allow you to pair other Logitech unified devices to the dongle supplied with the keyboard. I have included a screenshot of the Logitech FAQ on how to to this. This is great if you love this keyboard but still prefer an external mouse for some tasks.
