The Logitech K830 Illuminated Wireless Living-Room Keyboard - User Review



As a digital native who uses my laptop both at home and at work, I enjoy streaming movies to my television via my computer during family time as an excellent means of entertainment, relaxation and catching up on our favourite series' and movies.  With the festive season well upon us and holidays imminent, we were always on the look-out for the perfect gadget that would take the hassle out of home streaming, for instance, we have all experienced the fuss of unavoidable interruptions such as PC timing out, the cable spaghetti coming undone and the inevitable reattaching of adaptors, HDMI cables made all the more inconvenient when we've lowered the lights for an authentic screening experience!  



Thankfully the perfect gadget to eliminate previous PC to television viewing hassles, the Logitech K830 Illuminated Wireless Living Room Keyboard, quite literally fell into my lap when I was lucky enough to win Logitech UK's excellent product via their Twitter competition!  The Logitech k830 includes invaluable features that makes streaming a pleasure and totally hassle free.  The keyboard itself is compact and can be set up in a matter of minutes, some of the Logitech K830's key features include:
  • Bright backlit keys, making seeing and typing a breeze, even in a darkened room.  The keyboard contains an automatic light sensor that detects the level of light in the room adjusting the backlit keys accordingly.
  • A built-in touch pad allowing the user to type and control the mouse pointer on one device.
  • A 10 metre (33ft) wireless range providing ease of access effortlessly from even the largest living-room.
  • Ability to re-charge without the hassle of batteries or constant cable switching.
  • Customisable function keys.
  • The ability to connect additional devices such as games consoles or multiple PC's effortlessly via the supplied Unifying Receiver.
  • A Logitech 2 year warranty.
  • A sleek contemporary lightweight design.

I would highly recommend the Logitech K830 as the perfect, times saving and highly efficient addition to take the stress out of PC to TV viewing that can be easily set-up and fully functional in a matter of minutes.  This is one device that does exactly as it claims and would make an excellent Christmas gift or affordable addition to any home.  The ability to add additional devices such as gaming consoles makes this perfect for the whole family's needs.
