Is the Logitech MX Mechanical Mini Wireless Keyboard worth it?
Yes — if you want mechanical keys on a small desk.
It uses low-profile mechanical switches (tactile quiet, clicky or linear) in a compact 75% layout that keeps the arrow and function keys. It's very sturdy, lovely to type on, backlit and rechargeable, lasting about two weeks with the light on or months with it off, and it switches between three devices over Bluetooth or a USB receiver. It's expensive for a small keyboard, heavier than it looks, and Logitech's software offers fewer tweaks than rivals.

How we reached this verdict
Trusted Reviews calls it an excellent small office keyboard: incredibly sturdy, with super-comfortable tactile quiet switches and great battery life, though expensive and limited in software. Tom's Guide found it compact, stylish and lovely to type on with several switch options, but heavier than its size suggests and pricey.
We compared independent expert reviews with the manufacturer's specifications, then checked it's sold at a major retailer where you live. We don't test products ourselves.
