Logitech's Wave Keys tries to bend ergonomics without breaking tradition

Nov 28, 2023

Tue 28 Nov 2023 // 09:30 UTC Review Logitech's latest take on ergonomic keyboards is a divisive device. It will delight users seeking palm rests but annoy key bashers more accustomed to chiclet or mechanical models. Wave Keys is a wireless keyboard that can connect via Bluetooth or a wireless dongle, depending on your available options. It also features a built-in cushioned palm rest and a curved form designed to match where the user's hands are likely to rest. Although Logitech sells other ergonomic keyboards – the Ergo K860, for instance, where the keyboard is split into two halves – the Wave is more compact and less visually intimidating. It seems as though Logitech is attempting to subtly incorporate ergonomics without the user noticing. The keys themselves are chunky, with a good deal of travel. Initially, I was hopeful that this keyboard might feature mechanical switches. Unfortunately, it does not – a membrane operates behind the scenes, and while that might not bode well for longevity, it does mean that less effort is required to press the keys. In use, I didn't really notice the lack of mechanical action, although the key travel, which is longer than the laptop-style keyboard I'm accustomed to, could be off-putting. More concerning is the lack of backlighting, especially on the graphite version of the Wave Keys. The cushioned palm rest is a neat touch, and I would recommend the graphite version over the other colors since darker shades tend to hide more sins. An off-white version is available, and a rose edition is due in "select markets" in 2024.
