Logitech Mx Keys Mini. When using MAC OS, pressing CMD+F3 shows the desktop????

Hi regarding Gaming since this keyboard does not have a Nkey rollover support, how many keys can you press before it stops detecting the succeeding keys being pressed? For example when playing FPS games where you have to hold SHIFT + W + A or D then sometimes Spacebar to jump or E or Q to use skills/items can it still detect all those presses at the same time?

i think the only way i can use a non backlit keyboard is if it's specifically for me to leave in my office where the lighting is almost always bright.. at home, i must have a back lit keyboard.. so if i were to buy the B1, i'll just leave it at my office

After a month of extensive research on mice and testing the MX Master 3s, I have to say that the MX Master is highly overpriced and not worth it. It looks terrible after just a year of use, and if you’re a designer, programmer, or anyone who relies heavily on a mouse, you’ll likely need to buy a new one every year. The polling rate of 125Hz on the MX Master 3s is comparable to a $5 mouse from Walmart, making it inaccurate and causing significant fatigue when pointing at objects. A true productivity mouse should have a polling rate of at least 1000Hz, which provides real comfort for long hours of precise pointing and cursor tracking. With a 1000Hz polling rate, you won’t experience headaches, migraines, or the negative effects of blue light exposure, such as blurry vision, eyestrain, dry eyes, macular degeneration, and cataracts. While the MX Master 3s and Keychron M6 are similar in terms of ergonomic grip, with the MX Master 3s slightly ahead, the Keychron M6 still achieves about 90% of the grip comfort. However, when considering the overall comfort for your brain and health with a 1000Hz polling rate, the choice is clear. The Keychron M6 will help you feel more relaxed during long hours of work, allowing your muscle memory to take over, which reduces strain on your eyes and brain, enabling you to focus and engage in deep work for longer periods, like 4-5 hours. In contrast, with a low-polling-rate mouse like the MX Master, distractions and discomfort can set in after just one hour of use.

I have both and I prefer the keychron b1 pro (ivory color) over the mx mini. I was wondering if the bar (where blutooth-2.4gz switch is attached) in the space gray color was also a plastic or not, but it seems it is. For me, typing experience on the b1 pro is nicer than mx keys or even than apple magic keyboard. But yeah, it looks pretty cheap 😅 but when i type, i dont look at the keyboard itself, so it should be fine. Thanks for your review !

MX Master feels great in your hand, but it breaks really easily. I've gone through 3 MX Master models in the past 2 years. One had double click after 2 months of usage, another one just stopped moving after about 12 months, and on the last one after about 6 months the thumb button is broken, i.e. if you put your thumb where it's supposed to rest it reads it as a button press. Very unfortunate. Looking forward to trying out keychron m6.

@@blogerboy1 sorry, i don't ususally check youtube comments. This keyboard does not have NKRO. Which keys will work together depends on the design decisions of the manufacturer. On this keyboard modifier keys work independently of the letter keys and there are no problems with them. But the letter keys can be unpredictable. For example, when you press W + D + E, either W + D or W + E will work, depending on what you press first (similarly for W + A + Q). Since the keyboard is thin, you can press several keys with one finger, which could be convenient, but in this case it can be even worse. For example, when you press W + E + S simultaneously, the presses will not be registered at all. Same for WED/WAQ etc. So it depends on what combinations you need.
