If you're looking for a direct comparison, check out Keychron's K3. The Logitech board is very similar. I've been using an MX Mechanical Mini with brown switches for ~ 2 weeks. It's a decent middle-ground between my MX Keys and regular mechanical keyboard. If you have no interest in customizing your keyboard, this is a great option. That said, the MX Mechanical Mini is almost twice the price of the Keychron K3. For $150 you could buy a K3 with hot-swappable switches and still have ~$65 for some custom keycaps.

I got my mini yesterday after watching your video and trying one in a store and I really like it. Had a full sized mechanical keyboard before and yea, definitely typing a little slower but really like all the other features very much and 100% worth it for me trading typing a little slower for Bluetooth, multi device (windows and one Mac book) and and the very compact size. Got the tactile quiet versus the linear I tried at the store and am very happy with it. Linear felt a little mushy and the tactile quiet are perfect.

I went from the MX Keys (full size) to the MX Mechanical (full size) and after having such a long period of my life on slim laptop style keys... I'm not entirely sure if my switch will be permanent. The noise of the keyboard even on the borwn switches is significantly higher than anything I used. That being said the quality of the keyboard is truly excellent and with the solid design I think its worth the price. As I travel around with work... if im going to bring a keyboard with me it will most definately be the MX Keys. Will have to use to use this one for a week and see how going back to the MX Keys will feel and make the judgement call then.

Just chiming in here from the apparently unique perspective of a scissor switch lover. Bit of history - used a Creative Fatal1ty keyboard intermittently for ~5 years before settling on the HP Elite wireless keyboard (v1) for another 5 years. Moved to a Surface Keyboard for almost a decade after killing a couple of those HP Keyboards, then due to WFH had to switch to Logi's MX Keys for the past few years. Up until that point, most of the keyboards I used in addition to those were laptop keyboards - the 2016 razer, Alienware 13r3, Alienware m15r2, a couple various Dell XPS's. All scissor switches - but all GOOD scissor switches. I definitely have a preference for them. Now, I typed very fast on the MX Keys, but I never really liked them. The keycaps, while accurate, were uncomfortable, and the stability of the switches left something to be desired. I didn't understand why the internet seemed to think the MX Keys were god's gift to scissor switches, when the Surface keyboard was clearly superior from a tactility perspective, if not as accurate. The killer app for the MX Keys though was definitely the device switching. Enter the Corsair K100 Air. I had a fit. I fell down a rabbit hole. Was I missing something? I had been ignoring everything everyone told me about mechanical keyboards because they missed all the marks I liked about good scissor switches. When I looked at the metrics, the scissors I am used to have GREATER actuation force, lower travel, and less noise. All things I like. I dropped the money for Logi's MX Mechanical (tactile, as they matched closest to the Surface Keyboard switches). It hurt. Physically. My wrists hurt. My fingers were fatigued. I tried to stick with it for a week. But after 4 days, all I could say was that my typing speed was down 10%, my errors were up ~10%, and I was definitely getting typing fatigue (text heavy job + gaming ~14hrs a day). ~91-97wpm , ~91-94% accuracy. I bought the Corsair K100 Air. When it arrived, within 4 key presses I was in love. I'm on it now. I'm typing as fast (albeit a touch less accurately) than I was with the MX Keys. It's comfortable. It feels good. It's clicky. It has the RGB (!) that my Razer did - mostly. ~104-108wpm, 99% accuracy. And this was immediate; I didn't have to "make myself like it". Point being - Human Interface Devices are a personal thing. Mechanical keyboards do provide options. But sometimes, the option that is preferable is actually not to get mechanical keyboards that are out there. These Cherry MX ULP's though? Chef's kiss.

How did you feel about the super-fast backlight timeout? I've reached out to Logitech and they agree the fast timeout is unacceptable. It's not clear if/when there will be a feature added to Options+ to adjust the backlight. I returned the MX Mechanical and MX Keys both for the same reason. It's a major design flaw that hinders usability and ruins the experience if you work in a dim or dark room.

Late to the party, take the keyboard apart and tape mod it makes a world of difference since this keyboard does not have any noise dampening once I did this it feels and sounds allot better. the switches are not hot swappable and year to date there is not a full keycap set that will fit : example the spacebar is a different size, you can swap all keys except the for the space bar. Get a lube syringe and lube the stabilizers as well.
