Logitech diNovo Edge Mac Edition review

Whether the glossy black and silver diNovo Edge complements Apple's system design is probably up for debate. The newer iMac keyboard is more visually appealing than your typical Windows PC's default keyboard, so we'd argue that the diNovo Edge provides less of an aesthetic upgrade to Apple's systems. The recharging capability is also a definite plus, but the clunky charging base station won't park underneath the iMac's screen, which means more desk clutter.

What you will appreciate about the diNovo Edge, regardless of your design philosophy, is the responsiveness of its keys. Logitech boasts of a PerfectStroke key design that blends characteristics of both laptop and desktop keyboards in terms of key travel and key responsiveness. We found the typing experience was indeed satisfying, especially because its keys are spaced out well. The keys on the default Apple keyboard feel as if they're too far apart from each other, although that keyboard is also miles better than half the Windows keyboards we see. That's really the chief problem facing the diNovo Edge for Macs. In the Windows world, it's a supermodel among cavemen. But in Apple's league, the competition is much more advanced. That makes the diNovo Edge, and its high price tag, a harder sell.
