Key features extend beyond typing comfort. The keyboard offers multi-device pairing and easy-switch functionality, enabling you to connect to up to three devices and switch between them in an instant. This is especially valuable for professionals who juggle a laptop, desktop, and tablet, or for creators who work across operating systems. The illuminated keys provide visibility in any lighting condition, so you can work late into the night or in a sun-drenched studio without missing a beat. And with Logitech Options software, you gain deeper customization of function keys, brightness, and shortcuts, letting you tailor the MX Mechanical to your exact workflow. The result is a keyboard that not only feels exceptional but actively enhances your productivity by reducing friction and frictional hand movements during the workday.

• Ultra-fluid typing with low-profile mechanical switches. The MX Mechanical features precision-engineered linear switches that deliver smooth, steady key travel for a quiet, uninterrupted typing experience. The shallow profile reduces finger fatigue and provides a more natural hand position for long-form writing, coding, and data entry, while maintaining the tactile feedback and reliability you expect from a mechanical keyboard.
• Wireless versatility for a seamless multi-device workflow. Connect via Bluetooth or USB-C and switch between up to three devices in seconds using dedicated Easy-Switch keys. This creates a cohesive setup across a laptop, desktop, and tablet without hunting for cables or re-pairing each time you change devices.
• Illuminated keys for any environment. The keyboard features integrated backlighting to help you see the keys in dim conditions, with adjustable brightness and intelligent lighting that conserves power when not in use. Backlighting supports focus during late-night work sessions, programming, or content creation in darker environments.
• Premium build and comfort-focused design. The Graphite chassis presents a sleek, professional look with durable construction. The keyboard’s low-profile design, combined with a comfortable keycap profile and a solid weight, provides stability during typing and a premium feel that complements high-end workstations and entertainment setups alike.
• Software customization and workflow tools. Logitech Options unlocks powerful customization for keys, shortcuts, and app-specific profiles. Use Flow to copy and paste across computers, tailor function-key mappings, and automate repetitive actions to streamline your daily tasks. This software integration helps you extract more value from every keystroke and every minute of work.
