Logitech MX Keys S Price in Kenya
The Logitech MX Keys S price in Kenya is Ksh 6,000. While the original MX Keys was a masterpiece, the “S” version is the refined, high-performance successor designed for elite professionals, developers, and writers. It remains the flagship of Logitech’s non-mechanical lineup, offering a typing experience that is widely considered the best in the world for productivity.
The MX Keys S introduces Smart Actions via the Logi Options+ app, allowing you to automate complex tasks with a single keystroke—like opening your browser, Slack, and Zoom simultaneously. It now also features Quiet Click technology and an upgraded Logi Bolt receiver for enterprise-grade security and a more stable connection in busy Nairobi offices filled with wireless interference.Built from a single metal plate, the keyboard is remarkably solid and stays planted on your desk no matter how fast you type. Its spherically-dished keys match the shape of your fingertips, providing a tactile, laptop-like feel that is both fast and whisper-quiet. With Smart Illumination that detects your hands’ approach and adapts to the room’s light, it is the ultimate tool for those who work late into the night.

Smart Actions: The Efficiency Engine
The biggest software jump in the MX Keys S is Smart Actions. Imagine you start your work day by opening Chrome, your CRM, and your email. Instead of doing it manually, you can program a single F-key to execute all those actions at once. It’s like having a personal assistant built into your keyboard.
Spherically-Dished Keys & Scissor Switches
Most keyboards have flat or slightly cylindrical keys. The MX Keys S uses a spherical dish—each key has a circular indentation. This guides your finger to the center of the key, which is scientifically proven to reduce typos. Combined with high-quality scissor switches, the travel is short and responsive, mimicking the feel of a high-end laptop but with much better tactile feedback.
Intelligent Backlighting
The MX Keys S doesn’t just stay “on.” It uses an ambient light sensor to determine if you actually need light. If your room is bright, it stays off to save battery. As soon as your hands come within an inch of the keyboard, it “wakes up” and glows. You can now also customize the duration and brightness of the lighting within the Logi Options+ app.
Logi Bolt vs. Unifying
The original MX Keys used the “Unifying” receiver (orange logo). The MX Keys S uses Logi Bolt (green bolt logo). Bolt is based on Bluetooth Low Energy but is far more secure (FIPS compliant) and handles interference much better. If you have an MX Master 3S mouse, it uses the same Bolt receiver, allowing you to use both on a single USB port.
Who Is This Perfect For?
- The Software Developer: You need a rock-solid typing experience, a full number pad, and the ability to automate coding environments with Smart Actions
- The Content Writer: You spend 8+ hours a day typing. The spherically-dished keys reduce finger fatigue and help you maintain a high words-per-minute (WPM) count.
- The Executive Multi-Tasker: You have a PC on your desk and an iPad/MacBook on the side. Switching between them at the touch of a button is seamless and professional
