Keyboard Logitech K400 Plus Wireless Touch Black
Keyboard Logitech K400 Plus Wireless Touch Black is a wireless input device that combines a set of "keyboard + mouse." The mouse manipulator is implemented in the form of a touchpad, as on laptops. The device is positioned as a tool for working with multimedia equipment - primarily with televisions and consoles.
During testing, the keyboard showed complete inoperability with TV technology, at the required level. But found application in other tasks. But first things first.
Keyboard Logitech K400 Plus Wireless Touch Black
There are no questions to the Logitech brand, and cannot be. Workmanship and assembly at height. Excellent plastic, perfect key travel, no squeaks and backlashes. The keyboard is made soundly, easily detected by any device and does not require manipulation with the definition.
Included are 2 AA batteries (GP Alkaline). The manufacturer has already installed batteries in the device and blocked the power supply with a protective tape. By the way, for the USB module, under the cover with batteries, a special compartment is provided. But when unpacking the keyboard, the module was not in place. It is hidden in a niche at the end of the box itself.
Logitech K400 Plus and TV
In the understanding of the user, compatibility with TV equipment involves full control. Complete remote control replacement. Yes, the device was detected automatically, but the sense of it is zero. Neither the buttons nor the touchpad work with the main menu of the TV (Samsung UE55NU7172). And even Youtube does not want to satisfy the need. The Logitech K400 Plus wireless keyboard works only in the browser and other Android applications that were installed from the USB flash drive.

And here is the new flagship Beelink GT-King I accepted the wireless keyboard without any problems. And he gave control of the interface and all the programs. The set-top box connected to the TV directly came to life. Voice control from the remote does not stand with a keyboard and close by. Especially at night, when you do not want to wake up with seven voice commands.
Logitech K400 Plus and PC (laptop)
The computer picked up the keyboard right away, like the laptop. Moreover, all multimedia and function buttons were automatically activated. There are doubts that the device is in demand among PC owners, since working with it is inconvenient. The exception is to connect a TV to the computer and work on the Internet or with multimedia without getting up off the couch. With games, sadness - on the touchpad it’s inconvenient to control the cursor.
Logitech K400 Plus and tablet
After testing, there was a desire to throw an unusable device into the cabinet. But the wireless keyboard caught my eye. Having fastened the USB module through the OTG cable, it turned out that the Logitech K400 Plus is an ideal manipulator for a tablet. The input device works with the main menu of the mobile device and seamlessly supports all applications. In addition, the tablet, having determined the physical keyboard, does not display the virtual one. True, I had to go into Android settings and write input languages. For one, in the setup menu, a keyboard shortcut for switching languages is indicated. At least somewhere, the Logitech K400 Plus Wireless Touch Black keyboard did its best.
In conclusion
Given the price (30 US dollars), the keyboard cannot be called a worthy purchase. This is some kind of semi-finished product. On the one hand, an interesting design and full functionality for input and control. On the other hand, the lack of TV support for the device is perplexing.
