"It first made a solar-powered keyboard 15 years ago, the K750, and now the time is ripe for a successor: the Logitech Signature Slim Solar+ K980. Like the original, this keyboard has no USB charging port and is purely powered by ambient lighting."
"The Slim Solar+ K980 is a standard office keyboard, and it types like one. It uses a two-piece plastic construction (70 percent post-consumer recycled plastic) with low-profile keys and scissor switches. Ignoring the solar panel, this is an incredibly basic keyboard. The typing sounds a bit rattly, like most scissor-switch keyboards, and each keypress has a soft, almost squishy feeling instead of the crispness of a low-profile mechanical switch. The typing experience is passable, if not enjoyable, and the low-profile, short-travel switches me"
The K980 is purely powered by ambient lighting and lacks a USB charging port. The keyboard costs $100 and is available in black, white, and graphite. The simple, utilitarian design suits well-lit office spaces. The body uses two-piece plastic construction with 70 percent post-consumer recycled plastic. The low-profile keys employ scissor switches and budget keycaps. Typing feels rattly and soft with short travel, yielding a passable but not enjoyable experience. Connectivity includes a Logi Bolt receiver or Bluetooth and customization via Logi Options+. Solar charging provides theoretically infinite battery life but limited other advantages at the price.
