Logitech's new Solar Keyboard K750 puts some green in the lab - Value and Conclusion

 

12You know there is nothing like a good keyboard; whether it is for work or for play you really cannot beat having a good keyboard under your fingers if you spend a lot of time sitting in front of a computer screen (or two). So when my favorite Bluetooth keyboard died on me a couple of days ago I was not looking forward to finding a replacement. It is not an enjoyable task at all. I stopped by multiple stores including Target, Best Buy and finally Staples. It was while ruminating about the money I would have to spend to get something decent that I walked around the end of the Keyboard isle and saw something that really piqued my interest.  It was a keyboard that boasted of being green. It was a wireless keyboard that maintained it charge by the power of light. It was the Logitech Solar Wireless Keyboard K750. The best part about all of this, it was on sale. Normally this ultra-thin “Chiclet” style keyboard would set you back $80, but it was on sale for $60 ($59.99) was it worth the money? Read on to find out.

Value -
Value is another very subjective topic. What is expensive to some might be a deal to others. You can look at this topic in multiple ways. One is raw price and the other is what you get for the money. Each is accurate and both are correct ways to look at price/value. We tend to look at features, performance and real-property when we discuss value. However, we also take into account the raw cash cost of the item.

As I mentioned at the beginning of the article the K750 retails for $79.99. That is pretty steep for a keyboard even if it is one that is as nice as the K750 (and throws in solar power to boot). However when I hit the Staples there was a sale on this product that knocked $20 right off the top. For $59.99 this keyboard was a steal. I mean it is quick comfortable easy to use and I will never have to replace the batteries again! Think about how much that will save you over the normal 2-3 years that a keyboard should last. Not that bad of a deal now is it? In fact even at $79.99 it is not all that bad really.


Conclusion -
I have absolutely no buyer’s remorse over this purchase. It is one of the better keyboards that I have picked up. I normally am very picky about my keyboards and mice I have had more than a few that I have bought only to give away or just put out in the garage. The Logitech K750 Solar Keyboard is one nice keyboard that offers not only performance and comfort, but also has the added benefit or bringing a little bit of green into what is normally not so green at all. If you are looking for a new keyboard even one for gaming the Logitech Solar Keyboard K750 certainly gets my recommendation.
