Logitech has officially introduced the Signature Slim Solar+ K980 wireless keyboard in India, following its global debut in September. This launch marks the arrival of one of the most energy-efficient keyboards in its segment, designed to deliver uninterrupted productivity while reducing dependence on traditional charging methods. With solar-powered technology, multi-device support, and sustainable construction, the Solar+ K980 is positioned as a future-ready keyboard for home and professional users.

Introduction: A Solar-Powered Keyboard for the Modern Workspace

The Logitech Signature Slim Solar+ K980 is engineered for users who demand long-term reliability, minimal maintenance, and eco-friendly performance. Its standout feature is Logi LightCharge technology, which allows the keyboard to run on any available light source — whether sunlight or indoor lighting. Once fully charged, the keyboard can function for up to four months in complete darkness, making it a practical solution for Indian users who often work in varying light conditions.

Logi LightCharge Technology: How It Works

At the heart of the Solar+ K980 is a proprietary solar-powered system designed to deliver continuous energy.

Key components include:

Light-absorbing surface strip that captures natural and artificial light

Energy-efficient hardware optimized for ultra-low power consumption

Rechargeable battery designed to last up to 10 years

This means the keyboard rarely needs external charging and is capable of sustained productivity without interruptions.

Design & Build: Slim, Minimal, and Highly Functional

The keyboard sports a sleek, low-profile design, offering laptop-style scissor switches for quiet and responsive typing. Its full-size layout includes a dedicated number pad, making it suitable for office tasks, data entry, coding, writing, and creative workflows.

Highlights of the Design

Minimalist form for clutter-free desk setups

142.9 × 430.8 × 20.2 mm compact footprint

Lightweight at 700 g

Durable and premium typing experience

The keyboard is also built with sustainability in mind. The Graphite variant uses 70% post-consumer recycled plastic, while the Off-White variant uses 52% recycled plastic, supporting Logitech’s environmental commitments.

Multi-Device and Multi-Platform Compatibility

The Signature Slim Solar+ K980 shines in versatility. It supports:

Windows 10/11+

macOS 12+

ChromeOS

Linux

iPadOS 15+

With Easy-Switch keys, users can connect to up to three devices at once — such as a PC, tablet, laptop, or smartphone — and switch between them instantly with a single button.
