How fast can Logitech K780 Keyboard and M720 Mouse switch between devices? - Demonstration Video

[@romildeleon1723]

This is the exact video I’m looking for. Great Job...

[@SkyPerspective]

Thank you so much for letting me know your feedback. So happy this video helped.

[@mohit4902]

This is great, wish it would have 1 button to switch both mouse and keyboard and would also have earphones included

[@SkyPerspective]

Yes, it would be nice to have 1 button for both mouse and keyboard. This would be a good feedback for Logitech. Logitech have Keyboard and Mouse Combo like the MK850. Maybe they should start to introduce Keyboard, Mouse and Headset combo that connects to 1 USB dongle. Thanks for subscribing and dropping this comment.

[@cuteromeotube]

yeah that's exactly what i need.

[@ghanchi]

@@cuteromeotube You can use the flow feature in Logitech Options software to switch both mouse and keyboard between computers without pushing any buttons. The limitation is that flow only works with Windows and Mac.

[@youngyou1168]

Thanks for the video. I don't think the manual for the mouse explains how to switch between different devices. I thought I need to press the corresponding buttons as I used to pair the mouse. So this video helps to demystify it. Very helpful for me.

[@SkyPerspective]

Thanks for feeding back letting me know how helpful this video is to you. Makes my effort making this video all worth it.

[@hvacwiz7877]

just got the m720 mouse. this is a really awesome feature. ill probably adjust to it real quick but its really weird since i didnt even know something like this existed. it does work flawlessly but now its just on me to get used to it. im sure i will. thanks for the video.

[@hvacwiz7877]

Im probably going to get the keyboard as well. this is so useful for me as i have 3 computers and they all have bluetooth. This extremely handy. It definitely makes a difference how far the mouse is from the computer in terms of how long it takes to switch. like if i have my lap top right next to the mouse its almost instant maybe a fifth a second lag. but from a distance its almost a full second lag which can kinda mess with you. what is most impressive of all is that even while youre connected to your bluetooth with this on your computer you can still be connected to something else. for example i can still use the bluetooth mouse while also using my bluetooth headset at the same time. very impressive.

[@SkyPerspective]

Hi hvacwiz, I just realise your comment was blocked by KZbin spam filter and I have just realised it onto the video after 1 month. Yep, M720 is a great mouse I actually got two of them. How is your M720 so far? I am trying out the new M650 Signature mouse. It's a new generation mouse that comes with Logitech Bolt adapter and the mouse click button is super quiet.

[@hvacwiz7877]

@@SkyPerspective KZbin censorship is a very terrible sad destruction to our first ammendment. Anyway. Yes this mouse is incredible. I'm able to almost flawlessly switch from my PC to my laptop and I can take it to the other side of the house and use it on another computer. That's downright impressive. I see they make a keyboard that also does this but I don't really like that keyboard. I wish it had a touch pad.

If you enjoy the M720 multi device switching, you should check out Logitech Flow kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHibiJl3rM-XgdE

great video thank you!

Glad you liked it! Thanks for dropping this comment.

[@elypeachy3296]

Them being both logitech is there setting for both mouse and keyboard to switch with one button press on keyboard?

[@SkyPerspective]

Unfortunately no as they both have their own connections to the computer. The closest to what you are trying to achieve is Logitech Flow where moving the mouse across from one computer to the other will trigger the keyboard to also switch over. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHibiJl3rM-XgdE

[@mayumic08]

I think its faster when swtiching to the usb and then its takes a sec or so when its switching to bluetooth. This is the video i was looking as i am looking for instantaneous switch between devices similar to my tab s8 plus keyboard switching between my windows and the tablet is really instant! Thank you!

[@tsubasateacher]

thank you

[@SkyPerspective]

You are welcome. Thank you too.

[@wjlarsen]

Nice video. Thanks for the demo. You should add Amazon links because I’m about to purchase after seeing your video and would have liked to help you for helping me 😄

[@SkyPerspective]

Hi William, you are so kind, thanks a lot. I am an Amazon affiliate, it's just that I haven't got time to add affiliate links to all my videos yet. Here you go: amzn.to/3wAf9gI amzn.to/3Lwa8LQ Once again, I really appreciate having supporters like yourself.

[@JD-co4hx]

Is it a requirement to have to use the usb dongle?

[@SkyPerspective]

No, the mouse and keyboard can connect via Bluetooth.

[@edmel144]

This is a truly useful vid displaying a key feature this keyboard and mouse have over other alternatives. Something not really covered in any PC Mag type review. Well done.

[@SkyPerspective]

Hey Evolution_Algorithm, thank you so much for your positive feedback. Yes on my channel I try to cover important topics that users would like to know. I am a user myself.

[@ozksean682]

I wish there was a mouse keyboard combination that worked with one single button rather than having to press two buttons individually

[@SkyPerspective]

You should try Logitech flow. Switching the mouse automatically switches the keyboard. Have a look at this video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHibiJl3rM-XgdE

[@ozksean682]

@@SkyPerspective thanks but I use a corporate work pc so I can’t install 3rd party software

[@SkyPerspective]

@@ozksean682 Then that is going to be challenging 🙂.I think this is good feedback for Logitech. I wish Logitech can see this thread and make a multi-device Keyboard and mouse combo that switches with a single press of a button.

[@venomhnb]

I also search for the same product. One single button to switch both mouse and keyboard.. Not finding any until now..

[@alexk6745]

Thumb up as you have explained I'd better to look for a set I hope I find one which would not require double switching. The other thing I did not like is that it is got disconnected from Android and when it shows virtual kb is not great. I believe it would be better if it is still got connected without sending any keystrokes.

[@SkyPerspective]

Yes that's right. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

[@xavierlim]

can this setup FLOW feature that keyboard follow when mouse switching device?

[@SkyPerspective]

Hi Xavier, the M720 triathlon mouse does have Logitech Flow cross-computer feature, but unfortunately, the K780 keyboard does not. I bought the keyboard (K780) and mouse (M720) separately, and set them up as independent devices, connected to the computer and tablet. They need to be switched over individually, the keyboard won't follow the mouse automatically. Hope this help.

[@tomhansen2532]

@@SkyPerspective what about the other way around? i dont have the flow function on my mouse. How do i conect them ?

[@SkyPerspective]

​@@tomhansen2532 Hi Tom, then you won't be able to move your mouse seamlessly across devices. What mouse have you got? What do you mean by the other way around?

[@caiokaspary1]

I can do this with mx master 3? I have a mx keys and mx master 3. When i switch PC to ipad, just keyboard is switch. Can i switch the mouse together with the keyboard, pressing just a button?

[@SkyPerspective]

Hi Caio Kaspary, unfortunately I don't think we can have one button switching both keyboard and mouse, at least not that I know of. Even Keyboard and mouse combo like MK850, we have to switch individually I believe. I haven't used MK850 before, so not sure. I wonder if anyone else knows a way to do that, hopefully someone can share their insight if they know how.

[@conradoochoa1848]

Se puede configurar para cuando se toque el 1 en el teclado se cambie el mando al dispositivo al dispositivo 1 tanto el teclado como el mouse (sin tener q tocar el 1 en el mouse)?

[@SkyPerspective]

Unfortunately no. The keyboard and mouse are separate devices. They change device connections independently.

[@conradoochoa1848]

@@SkyPerspective do you know if in other model of keyboard and mouse of logitech this is posible?

[@SkyPerspective]

@@conradoochoa1848 Erm... maybe check out the Logitech MK580? It comes as a Keyboard and Mouse combo set, but I suspect the switching of the devices is still individual switching, not very sure. I am not aware of any other combo set that can switch both mouse and keyboard with one button press. Hopefully, someone else might be able to share if they know a keyboard and mouse combo that does that?

[@richiechen1085]

Hi Sky, would you be kind to share your experience with the logitech m720 mouse?

[@SkyPerspective]

Sure Ric, that is a video I intend to make anyway, but it's low on the priority list. I will pop that up to higher priority and maybe make that in the next couple of videos. Is there anything particular you would like me to cover? In summary, M720 is such a great mouse, I actually have two of them. I bought a second one to use at home and at work.

[@richiechen1085]

@@SkyPerspective much appreciate it Sky! It will help very much if u could share any interesting feature in relation the device switching. Would you think there would be any comfort issue if im using the mouse left handed?

[@richiechen1085]

Hi Sky sorry just 1 question. would a laptop have issues connecting to both devices, K780 and M720, via bluetooth at the same time?

[@SkyPerspective]

If you are used to using a right hand mouse with your left hand, then M720 should be OK because it not overly curved ergonomically for the right hand like Logitech MX master, however M720 is still curved for the right hand though. Maybe go to a shop and feel it. The packaging is moulded to the mouse so you should be able to get a good feel with your left hand.

[@SkyPerspective]

No, it should be be a problem. Modern laptop should be able to connect to a keyboard and a mouse both at the same time using Bluetooth.

[@Fa-id4nf]

Can I connect bluethoot mouse and keyboard at the same time on multiple devices or i need usb reciever? Or a device can be connected to only one keyoard or mouse at the same time. I should connect pc1, pc2 and tablet with two your keyboard and mouse at same time? Do you know some alternatives like m720, with toggole on side? Thank you!

[@SkyPerspective]

Hi Fa Fo, I don't really understand your question, but I will try to answer them. This Logitech Keyboard and Mouse in the video can connect to three devices at the same time. We then use the 1, 2 and 3 buttons to switch and choose the device we want to control. Most devices like tablet or PC can be connected to multiple mice and keyboards at the same time. So far I think only M720 has the device toggle on the side, no other mouse has this on the side. That's why I like M720 so much. Logitech M585 and Dell Multi-device mouse may have device switch buttons on top of the mouse. I don't own them so not very sure.

[@Fa-id4nf]

@@SkyPerspective I wanted to know if a like a computer device can receive two bluethoot devices at the same time, like a mouse and keyboard. Thank you for the answer I just bought a k380 and an m720. Thanks so much!

[@SkyPerspective]

@@Fa-id4nf You are welcome. Glad I can help. Yes both the mouse and keyboard can connect to a computer device at the same time.

[@edmel144]

And these can substitute for a KVM switch, somewhat.

[@SkyPerspective]

Yap that's true. Thanks.

[@thegenprince]

The mouse doesnt switch right?

[@adlansaimi8737]

Can the mouse copy the text from ipad, n paste to computer?

[@SkyPerspective]

Nope. I just tested it, no, cut and paste cannot work across ipad and computer. Logitech has something called Logitech flow, which might allow us to do that. However, I suspect Flow only works across Windows or Mac, not with ipad. I haven't tried it before.

[@KevinFoley]

Now if you added a Mac, that would be awesome

[@KevinFoley]

What’s with the goofy annoying music!!!???!!!! Not needed! Distracting!!!

[@SkyPerspective]

That was an old video, and yes the music was goofy 🤪 . I no longer have music in newer videos or at least not so goofy music. Thanks for the feedback.

Keyboard is loud

[@victorpang9362]

Hi, how do you switch from device paired with bluetooth, to a device that is paired via the unifying connector? Thanks!

[@SkyPerspective]

I have actually never had to do that because I always leave connection 1 to be connecting to the unifying receiver. After researching, I think you can download that logitech unifying software to re-pair to your unifying receiver. The logitech unifying software is actually different to the logitech option software. This article may be helpful for you. www.logitech.com/en-us/manuals/11892

[@User-999-8]

Wish you also show how to connect them... Is the mouse connected via Bluetooth to both laptop & tablet? Or mouse and keyboard are both connected using the same unifying dongle to laptop? And mouse via Bluetooth to tablet?

[@SkyPerspective]

@@User-999-8 I mention how they are connected at 0:30 of the video. Basically, this is my set-up for this video: Mouse Device 1 connected to Windows using mouse USB Dongle Keyboard Device 1 connected to Windows using keyboard USB Dongle Mouse Device 2 connected to Tablet using Bluetooth Keyboard Device 2 connected to Tablet using Bluetooth No, I did not connect the mouse and keyboard to use one Unifying dongle. I use the Mouse and Keyboard dongles separately on two USB ports.
