Logitech’s Pop Icon Keys is a successor to the company’s Pop Keys keyboard (reviewed in Issue 626), which was a clacky-sounding mechanical keyboard that came in a range of garish colours, but is no longer available.
In many ways this new model is something of a downgrade because it uses scissor switches, which lack the satisfying clicky feel. That said, these are still better than cheaper membrane switches, quieter than mechanical ones and have allowed Logitech to keep the price down. Some of the good stuff from its predecessor is still here, including three Easy-Switch buttons that let you switch between three connected devices, such as a laptop, tablet and phone.
