Thoughts
The K980 targets users who want a low-maintenance keyboard with eco-minded design. If you work in an office or home with steady indoor lighting, the promise of “never thinking about charging” is compelling. For heavy typists who prefer replaceable batteries, note Logitech offers a serviceable battery and iFixit sells parts. Price is competitive for a feature-rich full-size board.
