ges-sa.co.za | A keyboard that you can wash! That was my first thought when they asked me to review this keyboard but what a blissful keyboard to work with.
The design and dynamic is effortless and the keys don’t even make a sound. This keyboard is easy to use and easy to set up – you just plug it in (No extra drivers are needed to install). The two tone colour on this unit makes it look fun and the keys – well you can’t miss them, they are a bright white with grey/black laser printing so that over years of use the print won’t fade or disappear. The laser engraved keys can last with up to 5 million keystroke before it will even start to fade this although we could not test as that would require a lot of typing :)
Extremetech: Logitech has released the K310, its first washable keyboard.
We’re not just talking about “splash proof” either — you can take the K310, immerse it in up to 30cm of water (12in), and give it a good scrub. The only limitation is you can only use standard washing up liquid — oh, and Logitech says you should try to keep the USB connector out of the water, too. Once you’ve washed the keyboard, simply leave it to dry. The user guide says it takes eight hours to air dry, and that you shouldn’t use a hair dryer. There are actually drainage holes on the backside of the K310, to help speed things along.
