PRODUCT LAUNCHES

The Signature Slim Solar+ K980 also has multi-device, multi-OS compatibility, which means it works seamlessly across operating systems. It also allows users to switch typing between up to three devices: a work computer, home laptop, tablet or phone, using Easy-Switch keys. With a view to increasing productivity, users can personalise their keyboard. With the Logi Options+ App, users assign Smart Actions to automate common tasks, or using the AI Launch Key to instantly access preferred tools like Copilot, Gemini, or ChatGPT. For those concerned with sustainability, the plastic parts in the Signature Slim Solar+ K980 feature 70% certified post-consumer recycled plastic and its rechargeable battery is built to last for up to 10 years. MX Master 4 For hybrid workers, as mentioned, a more traditional mouse can also be important. But gone are the days where a mouse was just for moving a pointer and clicking drop-down menus – now, much more is expected of the humble device and the MX Master 4, which is an upgrade on the MX Master 3, brings in various new features. The MX Master 4 is aimed at professionals and businesses who are looking for speed and accuracy to enhance productivity. To this end, the mouse has customisable haptic feedback. Haptic technology is familiar to those who game or have smart watches, so as well as the usual touch, feel and sound, you also get physical cues – for instance it can buzz when aligned with gridpoints on a screen. This gives users more precision and control faster than previously. Likewise, there is the Actions Ring, which is digital overlay enabled by Logi Options+ that can help to streamline workflows with app-specific shortcuts. Logitech says this can save users up to 33% of their time and reduce repetitive

mouse movements by 63%. In addition, users can flow quickly through tasks as users can scroll up to 1,000 lines per second and stop on a pixel with the MagSpeed Scroll Wheel, Logitech’s fastest, quietest, and most precise scrolling experience. It also has two times stronger connectivity than its predecessor thanks to a high- performance chip and optimised antenna, which deliver stronger performance and the USB-C dongle ensures fast, reliable pairing. The MX Master 4 can also track on any surface. An 8,000 DPI sensor works on virtually any surface, even glass, and delivers responsive, pixel-perfect control for large screens and focused workflows. But the enhanced technology has not come at the expense of comfort or usability. The MX Master 4’s ergonomic design keeps users in flow with a natural tilt, intuitive buttons, and a thumb scroll that reduces hand stress for fluid navigation.

It also has 90% less click noise compared to previous models,

which cuts down on distraction, making it perfect for focused workflows. Whether stand-alone or

in tandem, the new keyboard and mouse from Logitech, with their striking design, can help to give users an edge in their everyday work. n
