Samsung just stepped into Logitech territory. The new Smart Keyboard is its latest wireless TKL keyboard, and it’s gunning directly for the MX Keys Mini with a lighter frame, modern Bluetooth 5.4, and multi-device support baked in.
Smart Keyboard takes a swing at Logitech’s dominance
For years, the MX Keys Mini has been the go-to compact keyboard for office users. But Samsung’s Smart Keyboard makes a sharp entrance by trimming the fat literally. Weighing just 218 g, it’s more than 55% lighter than Logitech’s offering, yet it still crams in 80 full-size keys.
The footprint stays tight at 280.3 x 111.5 mm, with each key offering a 19 mm pitch for comfortable spacing. It’s a clean, utilitarian build wrapped in silver, topped with dark grey keycaps no flashy RGB, no gimmicks, just a solid wireless board.
Teclast launches the P33 tablet under $100, with a 10.1-inch display, 1 TB storage support, stereo speakers, and Android 15 Go.
Samsung Smart Keyboard leans on simplicity and utility
Instead of flashy features, Samsung focuses on the core experience. The keyboard uses a CR2032 coin cell battery, skipping the built-in rechargeable pack you’ll find in the MX Keys Mini. No charging cable, no downtime just swap the cell when it runs out.
It also includes:
- Bluetooth 5.4 support
- Seamless switching between three devices
- DeX-specific shortcuts for Samsung devices
- An AI shortcut key that launches Copilot on Windows
That last one feels particularly current, offering a direct line to AI tools in supported environments.
Where Samsung’s Smart Keyboard beats expectations
While the Smart Keyboard doesn’t pack mechanical switches or fancy materials, it still finds its place. The lighter build makes it easy to toss in a bag, and the coin cell battery avoids long-term degradation issues tied to lithium-polymer packs.
Here’s a quick breakdown of what works:
- Lightweight and portable at just 218 g
- Multi-device pairing with quick switching
- Long-lasting battery with simple replacements
- Compatible with Samsung DeX and Windows Copilot
It brings a fight, not just a shadow
Samsung didn’t just clone the MX Keys Mini. It cut weight, ditched lithium for longevity, and added just enough smarts to stay relevant in 2025. If you’re tired of charging and like the freedom of Bluetooth 5.4, the Smart Keyboard might just be the quieter, smarter bet.
In a category Logitech has ruled for years, Samsung just walked in with something leaner, lighter, and ready.
