Implement an option to turn on the backlighting on the Logitech MX Keys permanently
Đã trả lời
It would be nice if there was a way to have the MX Keys backlight on permanently. For people who quickly type texts now and then, it is very annoying when the light goes off and on.
The implementation of the feature is also highly requested in the community, as this Reddit post shows: (7) Mx keys backlight always on : logitech (reddit.com)

I am in love with this keyboard, MX keys. I am usually Razer through and through. This has been my gateway to Logitech. If this feature cant be updated to make this more of a user option (choice of backlight time OR always on) I'll probably avoid this one in the future. It is a necessary future. I give my feedback as a plea, I understand the developers are aware. Help me love this keyboard that much more :)

It’s been 17 days since this post started. It should be a 1 day patch tops if they wanted to do it. Sadly, Logitech never fixes anything. I’ve spent months going round with them, got their agent to admit something was a bug, only to have the engineers literally call it a “feature” in their software that literally hadn’t been updated since 2014.
They make decent hardware, but they never fix anything.

Hi Logitech! I'm really thinking about returning the keyboard beacuse it is so much inconvenient for that insanly high price.
It takes only 5 seconds for the backlights to turn off. I need the backlights to be turned on when I'm looking for the first key to press. But I have to guess instead beacuse its so dark at my workplace...
Even with room lights on - its black keys with grey figures on them - too hard to read without the backlights.
It would make us really happy if you allowed us to change the timeout period to up to at least 15 minutes. Or to leave it always on -

I don’t mean to be difficult but what tangible good does an apology actually do? The post is over a month old for what would be an incredibly simple fix. At least more people are seeing how Logitech treats its customers. I’d love to be wrong, but in years of using Logitech products on and off I’ve never seen them fix a single thing. The hardware is usually great. The software is lazily coded and poorly supported. It’s like the average of the product is okay and sometimes better than the competition because the hardware is so good. It’s just hobbled by bad code.

Michael Siebold There are multiple posts on this forum regarding this issue, some of them are +1-2 years old and nothing has been actioned. It's always same copy/paste response from the support team.
I have 3 suggestions for you:
- Use the keyboard plugged in via the USB cable (it gives you a 5 min timeout)
- Tape the sensor
- Sell it / return it -

I have to sincerely ask the question, what is the point if all Logitech ever does is not read responses and copy paste replies while never fixing anything? Seems like this whole forum and Logitech itself is just a massive waster of time for the customer. As an engineer, I dislike wasting time.

Please do something about the backlighting! Please, please. Please!This keyboard is super exodious, made of great materials, I love typing on it.But it's also the most annoying keyboard ever - the design of the backlight that turns off so quickly and there's no way to turn it on permanently is stupid, and it's in the company's best interest to correct this design flaw as soon as possible!Even as I type this comment and reach for my coffee mug, I have to keep my hand on the keyboard to keep the backlight from turning off - this is stupid.So for now, my dear Logitech, you have an excellent product with one stupid feature xdPlease change it.Thank you, have a great day :) -

Good afternoon.
It upsets me very much why this basic functionality is not implemented in your keyboard?
The constant turning off of the backlight is very annoying and distracting from work, this is not what I expected from the keyboard for such money.Logi Support, give a clear answer whether this functionality will be implemented or not, the question was asked 2 months ago, really during this time you can't decide on the answer?
I don't want to do this, but if you don't give a definite answer, I will have to return the keyboard to the store within 2 weeks.

Logitech doesn’t know how to give a clear answer. I’ve also never seen them fix a single thing in the 20ish years I’ve used their products on and off. (The off being when they frustrated me too much like this.) It’s a strange combination of decent product, and horrible time wasting non-support.

Guys please consider this feature - always on / always off. Now i am working at night and it is not good to always put hands to keyboard wait a bid for backlight and then be able to identify right key and press.
please guys - small update big big win !
Thanks for consideration,
Petr
