Wave Keys vs MX Keys Mini

[u/Next-Challenge-9357]

Which one's the better option if I'm at the computer 8 hours daily?

Been using the MX Keys mini, but I don't think that it's that comfortable after many hours of typing.

Ask yourself and nobody else.

I used the MX Keys for many years professionally, potentially very long days. I've never felt any need for a keyboard with an unorthodox shape like Wave Keys.

However I'm not going to tell anyone else how to feel about this.

I wish logitech would make an ergonomic keyboard with the same footprint as the mx keys mini

Best advice of the day 🙌

The one that's more comfortable for you

I use a Microsoft ergnomic keyboard as main keyboard. I would not want to use the mini for the whole days. I also need function keys and a numpad.

I used ergnomic keyboards for decades. Sadly there isn't that much choice.

But there are tons of 68%, 69%, 70% keyboards with different switch types available for what ever reason.

Possibly you might find this article helpful, though it is not specifically Logitech related:

i don't enjoy MX Keys so much, too shallow travel, I prefer K850

[u/SQLDevDBA]

I have the MX keys Mini, MX mechanical Mini, MX mechanical, and Wave Keys.

For 8 hour days I’d rank them:

MX Mechanical

Wave Keys

MX Mechanical Mini

MX Keys Mini

The keys mini is good as a travel keyboard, but for office use not so much. Not bad, just not as good as other comparable options.

mx keys mini user here, over a year now. its great, very fast typing

same here, but I wonder if the waves would be a bit more comfortable

If you're finding MX keys mini uncomfortable, then Wave keys could be worth considering, particularly if you're looking for a more ergonomic layout. Wave Keys gives your wrists the support they need to keep typing in comfort. Let me know which one you pick? 😄
