PerfectStroke™ key system. Your typing experience made near perfect.

Tapping into your needs

Clickety-clack. Remember that sound? The old electric typewriter. If you are old enough to remember, it isn’t just the clickety-clack that you probably miss so much. Rather, it’s the way the keys felt under your fingers.

It’s a desire to create an unforgettable typing experience that drove us to create Logitech® PerfectStroke™ key system. PerfectStroke combines the best of laptop and stand-alone keyboards to help make every key stroke smooth, comfortable, and whisper-quiet.

The perfect blend

Traditional computer keyboards and laptop keyboards each have their benefits. Stand-alone keyboards generally use keys with longer, more comfortable key travel. Notebook keyboards have shorter key travel, but use a scissor-key mechanism that makes the response faster, compared to standard keyboards.

We figured why not give you the best of both worlds? PerfectStroke creates the perfect blend of laptop and traditional keyboards by combining the smooth action of notebook keys and the comfort of traditional keyboards.

Smooth moves

You don’t strike the keys perfectly every time. Sometimes, you might just catch the edge of a key. With PerfectStoke, you won’t feel the difference. Precision micro-scissors distribute force evenly across key surfaces so every keystroke you make is natural and fluid - even the imperfect ones.

Travel in comfort

With a typical notebook keyboard, your fingers have to travel 2.2 mm to activate a key. Most desktop keyboards, on the other hand, have a much more comfortable key travel of 3.5 mm to 4 mm. We gave our PerfectStroke keyboards a 3.2 mm key travel - so you can enjoy silent, responsive typing that’s comfortable too.

Comfort is key with Logitech keyboards

Tap happiness

2 million keystrokes. Every day.

That’s how much the average person types every year, according to a study by Harvard. (Dennerlein 2006)

If you sit at your computer hour after hour, day after day, all those key presses can really add up. Fortunately, you can do something about it. Logitech keyboards have a variety of comfort features to help keep your body happy.

Comfort Wave Design: Curve + Wave + Palm Rest

Your fingers vary in length—but most keyboards treat them all the same. Our Wave keyboards have a gradual wave-shaped contour to support the varying lengths of your fingers and keep the pressure off your fingertips.

To keep you from having to twist into an unnatural position when you type, we threw in a curve. Gently curving rows of keys support the natural resting position of your hands without splitting the keyboard. After all, you shouldn’t have to relearn how to type to be comfortable.

A cushioned, contoured palm rest helps position your hands comfortably on the keyboard. Plus, it gives you a cushy place to rest your palms when you’re not typing.

Zero Degree Tilt™: A real natural

Chances are your standard keyboard makes you take some non-standard positions. You see, traditional keyboards have higher keys in the back than the front, causing you have to angle your palms and fingers upward.

Our keyboards with Zero Degree Tilt™, on the other hand, have a flat design that lets your wrists stay in a more neutral position while you type. You won’t need to extend your wrists as much, either.

Perfectly PerfectStroke

Logitech PerfectStroke™ key system combines the benefits of a laptop keyboard with those of a stand-alone keyboard to give you a perfectly pleasant typing experience.

Clickety-clack. For those of you old enough to remember, it isn’t the sound of that old electric typewriter that you miss so much, it’s the way the keys felt under your fingers.
