Most of the Logitech products we've seen throughout the years have been accessories made for PCs, but today, the company is taking that PC accessory know-how and moving it into the living room. Logitech has announced the K600 keyboard, and instead of being a PC accessory, it's meant to be used with your smart TV. That much is evident in its design, as it doesn't really look like a traditional PC keyboard.
It isn’t unusual for successfully crowdfunded projects to pull the rug from under everyone’s feet, including their own. It isn’t even unusual for some not to refund their backers for complete lack of funds. What is somewhat unusual is for the creators to embark on an even more ambitious project. That does seem to be what the folks behind the Keyboard Mod for the Moto Z, formerly known as Livermorium, after it announced not just its cancellation but also its revival.
Razer BlackWidow Elite was revealed today, bringing the original gaming-ready mechanical switch-toting keyboard back with a new set of features. This version of the keyboard has the ability to run with green, orange, or yellow Razer Mechanical Switches, allowing the end user the exact sort of switches they desire most. This keyboard is the first in the BlackWidow line to come with Hybrid On-board Memory and Cloud Storage "for up to five profile configurations that can be saved for use anywhere."
Acer's Predator and Nitro gaming ranges are getting some serious accessories at IFA 2018, with new monitors and even a full gaming chair, the Predator Thronos. Supporting up to three 27-inch displays on an overhead brace, the Predator Thronos gaming chair stands a full 1.5 meters high.
A leaked Apple service document has quietly conceded that the redesigned 2018 MacBook Pro keyboard is, indeed, intended to avoid the ongoing "sticky key" controversy, not just reduce noise. The third-generation 'board was billed by Apple as a fix for just how much sound its homegrown key mechanism produces when typed on.
As you may have heard, Apple released new MacBook Pros earlier this week, featuring the usual processor and RAM updates, along with True Tone displays. Less touted, however, was an "improved third-generation keyboard" which only promises to offer a quieter typing experience. Apple didn't say anything about making real changes to the keyboard's butterfly switch mechanism, leaving us wondering if they'd even addressed the recently acknowledged "sticky key" problem. As it turns out, they did.
It might not be much longer before we see actual keyboard and mouse support for the Xbox One. Gamers, of course, have been asking for mouse and keyboard support on the console for quite some time, and a new leak suggests that Microsoft has at least been entertaining the idea. It's teamed up with Razer to explore the possibilities too, something that suggests mouse and keyboard compatibility could actually happen.
The latest MacBook Pro and 12-inch MacBook have a keyboard problem, and Apple is finally ready to do something about it. While the so-called "butterfly" mechanism debuted to great fanfare back in 2015 on the original 12-inch MacBook with Retina display, the reality has left some notebook owners more frustrated and wowed. Here's what you need to know.
Gboard, the third-party keyboard from Google, has been a popular tool on both Android and iOS for some time now. Interestingly, one of its newest and coolest features, custom GIF creation, has been limited to the iOS version of Gboard since its debut in January. Until now. The new Make a GIF option is finally making its way to Android, albeit as a beta, and unfortunately only on certain devices. At least it's better late than never.
If you're a Gboard user, you've likely noticed by now that something's not quite right with the app's spell checker. It's not unusual for it to ignore misspelled words or even recommend misspellings, leaving users frustrated when a mistake makes its way into a post or email. The company still hasn't fixed the issue, so instead we're here with a list of the best alternatives for switching.
If you’re looking for an RGB mechanical keyboard, there are plenty out there to choose from. Many gaming keyboards these days have started using mechanical switches instead of membrane ones, and while most of those seem to use some kind of Cherry MX switches, Logitech has taken things one step further by developing its own switch, dubbed Romer-G. These switches feature in the Logitech G513 Keyboard, the more expensive successor to the G413, and in fact they now come in two different varieties: tactile and linear. How does Romer-G hold up, though? Beyond that, is the G513 a gaming keyboard worth its somewhat high asking price?
Mobile keyboard SwiftKey has been updated to version 7.0, the "most significant update" since Microsoft acquired it a couple years back, according to the company. In SwiftKey 7, users on Android (and soon on iOS) get access to "Toolbar," which replaces the Hub. With Toolbar, users are presented with the mobile keyboard's various features, including new ones added in this update.
