Great keyboard - Would benefit from a few shortcut

Date:May 23, 2013
I have this keyboard paired with my Windows 7 Media Center Laptop in my living room. It works great with no connection issues ans the touchpad and special left click button are very useful features. The only flaw preventing a rating of 5 stars is the lack of multimedia keys. This could really benefits from having dedicated short cut (Play/Pause/Skip Forward/Skip Backward) and possibly one or two programmable keys to make this a perfect set up for a media center keyboard. My hope is that future generations of this unit will have the buttons I desire.

K400 Does Not Seem To Be Compatible With Windows 7

Date:May 14, 2013
K400 keyboard paired with my computer quickly and flawlessly. It was erratic in mousing. When I tried to open the Setpoint, there was no screen for the touchpad, only my Trackball. I removed my keyboard and Trackball from the Setpoint, and my computer went dead. The new K400 didn't work. The only thing that saved me was to borrow a USB mouse to get the computer to reactivate so I could reinstall/repair the Setpoint program. Now I'm up and running again. The K400 does not seem to be compatible with Windows 7.

A 3/5 Rating IMHO

Date:May 12, 2013
Really the K400 is the right form factor but the wrong build quality. It needs the backlit keys and key feel of the Logitech Illuminated Keyboard. So, they got it half right and half cheap. The feel of the keys really kills the feel of the whole keyboard. Maybe they'll fix those deficiencies in the future with the above suggestions. Until then the K400 makes for a decent secondary wireless keyboard but I would not use it as your main one.

K400r Keyboard and M510 mouse Works with my iMac

Date:May 4, 2013
I originally purchased both products so I could use the wireless on my laptop that was plugged into a HDR monitor. Then I received a great deal on a newer iMac (Spring 2008) which runs Mountain Lion. However, it came with a 3rd party keyboard and a cheaply made mouse.
I love this keyboard, as a photographer who travels, it fits into my laptop bag where others did not. I I love not having cords for both my keyboard and mouse.
Now, my keyboard has a "R" at the end of the make, and in support, there is no such model. And the K400 specs only lists Windows OS systems.
However, when I plugged this into my iMAC (running OS X v10.8.3) it works with no problems. I actually pulled out the wired Keyboard/mouse and plugged this in with the computer running, and the keyboard worked immediately. However the mouse didn't work.
I downloaded the unifying program for the correct MAC OS X system, and ran it, however, it failed to unify my mouse to the wireless USB plug.
After closing the program, the mouse works. It is a mystery, but in MAC's settings, I was able to adjust the click speed and the vertical and horizontal rate of speed.
I do not know why I cannot find the K400r model on Logitech's Web site, but I am wondering if the "r" means it works on both Windows and MAC.
I am delighted that I do not have to purchase another wireless Keyboard & mouse for my iMac. I have too many keyboards as it is right now, and this keyboard and mouse means that I can use this on my laptop, two windows desktops and now my iMac desktop.
I gave it 5 stars for the versatility, in that all I have to do is walk into each room where I have a computer and just own one keyboard and mouse. And it travels well, which is great as I like using a regular full-sized keyboard rather than the one on the laptop. Wireless allows me to move the keyboard so it is comfortable to use instead of placing a clunky heavy laptop on my lap, say if I am working in bed.

I'm torn about this Keyboard

Date:April 17, 2013
I bought this for my HTPC, having grown tired of getting up and down every time I wanted to pause a movie... or interact with the computer in anyway. The keyboard itself is pretty good, for the price it has the type of build quality you expect but it's perfectly acceptable. My gripe with this unit, is that if you sit on the couch and try to use it... you have to make sure the keyboard has a line of sight to the receiver on your computer. Despite this being a radio controlled keyboard, if I put this keyboard too far back on my lap... it will stop communicating with the receiver. I have to push it all the way towards my knees for it to communicate properly. It's very sensitive about where I place it, like I said if there isn't a line of sight to the receiver... it usually won't pick up what I'm doing. If it weren't for that, this would be a very good keyboard for the price. I don't know if it needs a stronger radio, or better placement of the radio inside the keyboard, but signal reliability has been a constant issue for me with this thing.

Great for the Money

Date:April 7, 2013
I bought mine at Walmart and couldn't be happier. I plugged this bad boy up and used it while my laptop was plugged into my TV. It installed immediately and was ready to go. I thought the keyboard was a little smaller than I'm used to and I would have loved a better way to scroll pages, like a trackball or one built into the touch pad, but other than that I can't complain. Great if you just need a cheap simple wireless keyboard and mouse.

Unique!

Date:March 26, 2013
I had no idea this type of keyboard even existed until I actually needed something with a mouse-less control. So far it has worked flawlessly. I love the fact that I can sit back in my easy chair and control the PC on my HDTV without having to have a mouse on a table out of my reach. I hope these are still being made and available should I ever need another one. Thanks, Logitech!

Great concept, could have been better executed.

Date:March 25, 2013
I bought the keyboard was the right size and reasonably priced.
My main gripe is the location of the shift and arrow keys could have been better placed.
I think the touchpad could have been shifted higher making more room at the bottom of the keyboard to move the arrow keys under the touchpad. This would allow for a more traditional / practical location of the shift key as well as make room for a Windows and Menu keys on the right side of the keyboard.
The biggest problem with the current design is that the up arrow is right where you expect the shift key to be, making typing awkward at best, and at worst cumbersome (especially in a command line environment).

Use on a LG 47LM6400 smart tv.

Date:March 22, 2013
I just purchased this from the local Walmart store to use on my LG Smart TV and it adds a lot more functionality to my web browsing experience than I expected. The model I have is in the review title if anyone is curious about which TV I own. The features that work on my TV are the following: Touch pad and left "mouse button" and they function as well as the magic remote included with the TV. The volume and mute button also control the TV's volume and mute. The escape key works like a back button press in the web browser and closes the onscreen keyboard after text entry. All the other keys do not function as far as I can tell. I've only had the keyboard for a few hours however and haven't explored its compatability fully. I still find it immensely more enjoyable to web browse with the keyboard instead of the remote. I hope this long winded review is helpful to someone. I actually typed this review on the keyboard and my Smart TV. Easily.

Great for Bedroom PC

Date:March 15, 2013
I stream everything from my Blu-ray collection, to Hulu, and Netflix. I couldn’t find any decent keyboard mouse combos for my bedroom PC until I ran across this. It works great for selecting something to watching. I wouldn’t recommend this for a PC that is used to browse the internet due to its low profile keys but if you want to make a few clicks and open streaming services it works great. Only complaint is no backlight keys. Logitech throw a few light bulbs behind it and you’ll earn that 5 star rating.

Great for the price and works with mac

Date:March 14, 2013
Works great for the price. I have it hooked up too my Mac Book so i can use it as a media device and it works perfect for my needs. It doesn't really support multi touch and sensitivity can be an issue but that can be adjusted easily enough by just going into mouse setting in system preferences. Also you don't need to download any drivers just plug and play, real simple. If i have any complaints its that the keyboard doesn't light up and build quality could be a little better, otherwise it would of been an easy 5 stars.

This thing is useless

Date:March 9, 2013
I got this keyboard wanting to use it for my Samsung smart TV and/or Android. But boy was I was wrong. The keyboard is light compact and perfect footprint.
But, the touchpad never worked. I tried all that is humanly possible to make it work even on multiple PCs with latest setpoint installed etc. etc.
But I guess have to work with support to fix / return this keyboard. Unfortunately, so far my experience is 50-50 on most logitech keyboards, this one probably is the last straw.

Keys stopped working.

Date:March 9, 2013
I m writing this review from the K400 keybord. s one user pointed out, the shift key on the right is extremel nnoying. The trckpd doesn't work with Windows 8 multitouch gestures. Only two finger scrolling works. No pinch to zoom or nything of tht sort.
lso, three weeks into using the keybord, one of my keys stopped working. Cn you guess which key tht is?
I tried everything to resolve the issue, unplug nd put the usb in nother port. Try using the keybord with nother computer. The sme key still wouldn't work.

Does not support Android

Just got an android mini PC and figured that the K400 would be the perfect keyboard. Thought wrong. The K400 does not support Android. Returning to Office Depot.

Really Good, But a Few Flaws

Date:February 5, 2013
It was definitely a good idea to try integrating a touchpad into a keyboard, and had a pretty good outcome. It doesn't make the keyboard any bigger by adding the media controls, it simply uses the otherwise virtually unused F keys. If you want to use the F keys, you simply hold down the FN button, and press the F key that you want. It works how it was meant to, however, how it was meant to work isn't necessarily how you would expect it to. A few problems include:
The "compact design" may be a bit too compact, as I sometimes press the up arrow key instead of the half-sized right shift key.
The software that runs the touchpad is not very smooth, when you use the two finger swipe to scroll, it is very jerky and doesn't scroll one pixel at a time.
There aren't many problems with it, everything has its flaws, but I wouldn't recommend buying this keyboard if you know the problems listed would bug the heck out of you.

Ugly, Ugly (but functional)

Date:January 28, 2013
The keyboard is functional, but it is uncharacteristically ugly for Logitech.
Seriously, who though of adding these lines to the trackpad?! Please fire them!
Otherwise, it works OK. It's relatively cheap, and it looks it (and kind of feels like it as well).

Great Keyboard!!!

Date:January 26, 2013
I purchased this keyboard at target hoping to get a great deal. Well this keyboard is deffiently worth the price. The keyboard is small and efficient. Once i got this keyboard, i plugged in the USB and it automatically installed the drivers and i was using it within 5 minutes. The only downside is that it takes some time getting used to the keyboard and the track pad is a little sensitive. other than that, i am happily satisfied with this product. The best wireless keyboard on the market.

Great for home theater

Date:January 22, 2013
I built a DVR from windows and could not find a "Wife Acceptable" Keyboard / mouse setup. We had been using the touchmouse ipad app, but it will not work when UAC popups occur. Well she loves this, it is compact and has all the functionality you need to select shows, search for shows, and browse the web. It is nice and thin so that it can disappear and not detract from the room. Great job Logitech!

Surprisingly good wireless keyboard+track pad

Date:January 20, 2013
I originally bought this keyboard for my android tablet so I could hook up my tablet to my TV and type coding and such. The tablet thing fell through, but the keyboard and trackpad both worked with my Asus Transformer flawlessly. The keyboard takes two AA batteries, which is awesome, and hasn't died on me yet. I've only had this product for a few days but I've been using it quite a lot to work in my entertainment center. The only thing I don't like about the device is that the F-keys are not the default functions for the buttons that usually do that sort of thing, they are instead the special function and media control keys.
The device works out of the box without any additional drivers requiring installation, even the media keys work without the drivers, which is good since the keyboard doesn't come with a CD to install anything.

Bad idea

Date:January 17, 2013
I've had this keyboard for 3 weeks now and I have not yet gotten used to it. I hate what they did to the right shift key; it is only half the normal width of a shift key, and they stuck the up arrow key in the 'extra' space.
Do you know what happens when you are typing merrily along and you hit an up arrow key when you meant to hit a shift key? You find yourself inserting text into the line above what you thought was the current line! I have shouted unpleasant things out loud on several occasions. Don't know if I'll ever get used to this keyboard.
