I love a good mechanical keyboard. There’s nothing that beats the satisfying sequence of clicks as your fingers glide across the keys. Based on what Logitech is saying about its recently launched Alto Keys K98M, I’m well within the target market.
Along with a full array of keys, Logitech’s new keyboard has a stylish transparent flourish surrounding the keys, which gives it a cool retro and understated aesthetic.
Logitech advertises the Alto as shipping with hot-swappable linear Marble switches, which should make for a smooth typing experience. It also has a claimed battery life of up to 12 months with the backlighting disabled, with wireless support coming from Bluetooth and an included USB receiver. Perhaps best of all, it can swap between three different devices, regardless of operating system.
Out now in Australia, the Alto Keys K98M costs $169 from JB Hi-Fi and Amazon. I reckon it’d pair nicely with Logitech’s excellent MX Master 4 mouse.
