Logitech diNovo Keyboard Mac Edition

Elegant finish ; Mac-specific shortcut keys ; comfortable typing experience ; easy plug-and-play design

Expensive ; lacks illuminated keys and integrated USB ports ; no control over wrist angle

The Logitech diNovo Mac Edition looks sexy and is comfortable for typing, but it's a pricey upgrade for a keyboard that lacks integrated USB ports and backlit keys.

The Logitech diNovo Mac Edition keyboard offers Mac users a viable alternative to Apple's brand of peripherals. Like many of the other keyboards in the Logitech stable, the diNovo Mac Edition uses Logitech's PerfectStroke system to ensure...

Logitech diNovo Edge Mac Edition

Wireless and rechargeable ; no USB receiver needed since Apple has one built-in ; improved touch-pad sensitivity

Expensive ; convenient Mac-specific keys ; tougher competition with Apple's own hardware ; volume slider still horrible

In the Windows world, Logitech's diNovo edge easily beats its clunky keyboard competition. Against Apple, it stands out a bit less. The Mac Edition of the diNovo Edge is still a better keyboard overall than the iMac's default model, but not enough to ...

Aside from a few extra keys, there's very little about the Mac edition of high-end Logitech's diNovo Edge keyboard that's different from the Windows-based original. We like the feel of its typing action, too, but at $159 the diNovo Edge Mac...

Logitech diNovo Edge Mac Edition

By Rich Brown

Aside from a few extra keys, there's very little about the Mac edition of high-end Logitech's diNovo Edge keyboard that's different from the Windows-based original. It remains one of the best-looking, and most expensive, keyboards around. We like the ...

Logitech diNovo Keyboard (Mac Edition)

By Nicole Price Fasig

includes a mouse. (You can find that keyboard alone for $49.99.) And unlike the Apple keyboard, the diNovo doesn't sync via Bluetooth, meaning you'll have to clog a USB port with Logitech's wireless receiver.

Spacious palm rest. Matches the Mac aesthetic. Impressive wireless range. Programmable function keys. Works without loading included software

Tricky to sync the first time. Expensive. Receiver takes up USB port. Pricey

If you're picky about your keyboards, the Logitech diNovo Keyboard for Mac has plenty to offer, including programmable hot keys, but if you're not so particular, you can get a comparable device for less.

Despite the difficult setup, there's not much negative to say about the Logitech diNovo Keyboard (Mac Edition). If the only metric I used to judge a product were performance, I'd give the Logitech diNovo keyboard a stellar review. That said, the...

Logitech diNovo Keyboard Mac Edition

By Stuart Miles

An Apple keyboard alternative?

Programmable shortcut keys, wrist rest

Clunky, large, expensive

Big and more expensive, it doesn't match up to the standard Apple keyboard offering

Considerably larger than the standard Apple keyboard, the large black and silver Logitech keyboard offers you a standard 105-key keyboard, number pad and wrist rest in a wireless device that connects to your Mac via a USB dongle. Logitech has...

Logitech diNovo Keyboard Mac Edition

By Christopher Brennan

Most third-party keyboards are Mac compatible but are designed for use with Windows so the Control, Command and Alt keys are all in the wrong place. The new diNovo keyboard from Logitech is designed specifically for the Mac so has those keys exactly ...

Okay, ?70 may sound a bit steep even for Mac compatibility, but if you're slaving away over a hot keyboard all day long, then it's a price worth paying. The additional function keys that allow you to launch various Mac OS X features are an added bonus ...

Logitech diNovo Keyboard, Mac Edition

By Ian Osborne

A stylish alternative to Apple's own

Sleek and stylish / Incredible battery life / Good media keys

Needs application install / One or two strange choices for function keys / Expensive

Macs. It feels great under the fingers too, with fast, responsive keys and a comfortably ergonomic low profile

What you will appreciate about the diNovo Edge, regardless of your design philosophy, is the responsiveness of its keys. Logitech boasts of a PerfectStroke key design that blends characteristics of both laptop and desktop keyboards in terms of key ...
