Logitech has focused on its MX series of keyboards and mice for high-end professional and office use in recent years. Recently, it launched the new MX Keys S keyboard and MX Anywhere 3S silent mouse. These new versions offer upgraded functions and specifications, and better align with ESG sustainable development and environmental trends, which are expected to meet the procurement needs of more businesses.
The MX Keys S keyboard set comes from the same manufacturer as the MX Keys, which was first released in 2019. The new version, "MX Keys S," released in 2023, is a minor update. Users considering high-end office keyboards may want to pay attention, but those already using the previous generation MX Keys might not need to upgrade. The MX Keys S retains its thin, silent design, and the Perfect Stroke spherically-dished keycaps are quite comfortable to type on. Connectivity has been upgraded from the previous generation to the latest Logi Bolt encrypted multi-connecting receiver and Bluetooth. The USB-C charging offers an average of 10 days of use, and with the backlight completely off, it can last up to 5 months. The accompanying software has also been updated to "Logi Options+," which includes a new "Smart Actions" feature, similar to the macro execution function of gaming keyboards, allowing for easy execution of a series of steps and operations. For those who dislike the dark color scheme, the MX Keys S is also available in pearl white, and there's a set that includes the MX Master 3S mouse. Additionally, the manufacturer has listed the proportions of recycled plastic and low-carbon aluminum used in its manufacturing, which is expected to align with the ESG procurement policies of an increasing number of companies.
MX Anywhere 3S
The MX Anywhere 3S wireless mobile mouse is also a minor upgrade to the MX Anywhere 3, released in 2020. The main improvements include a switch to the "Darkfield high precision" sensor, doubling the maximum DPI to 8,000, and main buttons that are now silent with significantly reduced click noise. Of course, the MagSpeed electromagnetic scroll wheel is still present; its benefits are clear when handling "snake-long" spreadsheets or video timelines. USB-C charging provides approximately 70 days of use. However, it no longer includes a USB receiver in the box and defaults to Bluetooth pairing, though it supports pairing with a separately purchased new generation Logi Bolt receiver. It is available in graphite gray, pearl white, and rose pink. The official specifications also highlight the proportion of eco-friendly materials used, aligning better with ESG principles.
Price: HKD $899 (Keys S), $799 (Anywhere 3S), and $1,799 (Keys S Combo)
