- Logitech has launched a new keyboard with solar energy
- The Logitech Slim Solar+ K980 firm is sold at $ 99.99
- It is loaded by sunlight or artificial light and comes with an adjustable battery
Logitech has launched a new keyboard with solar energy that is charged purely by the light, whether sunlight or artificial variety, and can last a surprising amount of time when expelled.
The Logitech Slim Solar+ K980 firm is sold at $ 99.99 in the US, as reported by the edge, and does not offer a USB port for a load alternative. You can turn it on to the sun or through the use of interior lighting (if it is at least 200 lux), but once it is completely loaded, the K980 will last four incredible months before you need to see the light again.
It is claimed that the battery is good for (up to) 10 years, and even if it fails, this device has an energy package that can be changed to a new one.
Logitech spokesman, Melvin Dilanchian, made it clear to the edge that the battery is in a plastic case to be “replacing the user replacing” with a spare (which supplies Ifixit).
The K980 is a full -size wireless keyboard with a load panel that is executed at the top, and a complete set of function keys below, plus a full number of the right.
He also obtains multimedia keys and keys for video chat (microphone silence, camera off), and there is a dedicated the Ia key that will work as a co -pilot or gemini in Windows or Chromeos, respectively, or can customize it (and other keys) to do something else.
You can match the K980 with up to three different devices through Bluetooth and change with each other with the pressure of a key.

ANALYSIS: The solar resurgence is good to see
K980 is an intelligent idea for several reasons. It offers a lot of longevity when loading, and being able to exchange the battery for a new one when spent is clearly a pleasant and ecological idea. There are also many options in terms of keys and customization, which is good to see.
The keyboard design seems a bit basic, and there are no folding feet (to adjust the angle and inclination of the peripheral), but still, it looks quite ingenious in general. And there are certainly some people who have lost the keyboards with solar energy of Logitech, there has not been one made for a long time (more than a decade), which has been crying out for the company to make another model. Therefore, it is good to see that the manufacturer has been properly forced.
Lenovo has also recently launched its automatic load Bluetooth keyboard at the same price in the US., And Logitech’s effort looks a little more pleasant and simplified to my eye. In addition, Lenovo’s effort only lasts one month with a complete position, which makes the capacity of the logitech (claimed) rival keyboard even more impressive. However, it obtains a USB-C port to load the Lenovo device (in the absence of any strong enough light).
