In summary, I quite like this keyboard, and would even if it didn’t have the solar power feature, but that’s icing on the proverbial cake. It’s not perfect—lack of dedicated Mac support and keymapping being an obvious shortcoming, although in m...

I love wireless. If you saw my office and home desk, you better hoped that I did. It’s a tangled mess of wires, more wires and, as I believe so, cobwebs. But there is a reason why I still prefer to use it the good old way – dead batteries. In my line o...

It doesn't get more hassle-free than with the Logitech K750. You don't have to worry about wires and won't be caught unaware by the battery going dead with the K750. About the only thing you have to worry is that the design of the keyboard which is no...

I love all things wireless, except when it comes to keeping them powered up. For some reason, I’ve never latched onto the idea of wireless input devices, like mice and keyboards. I was always worried that I’d run out of battery juice at the worst pos...
Solar rechargeable keyboard means it's always got a charge (even indoors). Top mounted on/off switch and check light are nice touches. Very sleek. Logitech Solar App (Windows only) only required if you want to geek out on your charge status.
No on-keyboard caps lock indicator. Although the K750 works on a Mac, I wish they made a Mac-specific version.

I have an old keyboard by another manufacturer that gets something spilled on it at least once a year. I take it apart, clean and dry the plastic films that make up the switch matrix, and I’m back in business again. I wouldn’t want to try that experiment with this one, and I see no easy way to take it apart anyway.
