Logitech K650 Wireless Keyboard - Graphite

I don't normally give reviews, but this product was honestly worth my time in the case it may help someone else... I am currently starting my new career as a legal transcriptionist and typing thousand of pages a month on my laptop keyboard was not not ergonomic and slowing me down. I researched all of Logitech's keyboard options\ and decided on this one. It was important to me that function keys could be used as primaries (without having to press the function key) as I use them hundreds of times a day in my transcript creation and this keyboard has the feature of setting functions keys as primary shortcuts or primary function keys. It's super easy to toggle back and forth between features with just two key presses. I put a sticky note on the back of the keyboard with the shortcut, so I won't forget it in the future. Also, my USB dongle was floating around in the box, instead of placed inside the secure compartment in the back of the keyboard. I only got lucky and saw it on the floor one day, otherwise it would have been lost so beware when you unbox. On to my review... The Pros: soft, rounded corner keys that feel like pressing clouds and relatively quiet. Is it the quietest keyboard on the market? Probably not. But it's not clunky-sounding and doesn't wake my family when I'm working well into the midnight hours. Connectivity was super easy and had no hang ups. Connects via USB or Bluetooth, which is great because with all my transcription gear, I have no USB space left on my current computer. I've had no issues with lag or it keeping up with key presses and I type fast! There is an LED indicator light on the CAPS LOCK key. All of the shortcut keys are extremely useful, especially the screenshot, as well as the media keys at the top, and there is a dedicated lock key if you work in an office setting where you need to lock your computer if you step away. Even though this keyboard isn't advertised as portable in size, it isn't so large or heavy that it wouldn't fit in a larger size bag to carry with you somewhere or from room to room. I keep mine in a basket beneath my desk when not in use and I love that feature. It's also got a built-in plastic wrist rest that I cannot live without, although some may find that a con as you can not use your own padded or softer version. There are two incline levels, as well as flat, and all three options use premium rubber feet so you've got good traction and shouldn't scar or scratch any surface you place it on. Cons: This keyboard is not backlit. I am worried the white color will likely stain over time and lose it's aesthetics. USB dongle was not packed inside the secure battery storage compartment. No instruction manual - an illustration of the shortcuts and their meanings would have been super useful as well as the primary function key feature switch shortcut. Had it not been for other reviews, I would not have known about this feature and I had look it up on my own from the Logitech website. I cannot get the media controls to control my media when I'm using mini-player mode (ExpressScribe). I'm hoping with some research this may be remedied. Would be better if: It was backlit. Include some instructions-short, sweet and simple would do the trick. Maybe have a manual switch for the primary function key feature. For me personally, the keys could have a little more spacing between them, but this of course would sacrifice space and portability. What I can't speak on... I haven't typed for hours on this yet, so I can't speak to it's durability or battery life. I also have not tried using this with more than one device, so I cannot speak to that either. For my career needs, I can't see finding a better keyboard in this price range and I will likely order a second one in the near future to have as a backup.
