CONCLUSION
The very first thought that crossed my mind when Logitech send us their news release about the launch date of the K310 was that i didn't really expect that and the reason is that in the end we are still talking about just a small and light water-resistant wired keyboard that really offers nothing else. I mean how many people use mini wired keyboards that they either fear might stop working if they drop water on them or would like them to be easier to clean/wash? On the other hand is this not something enthusiasts and gamers alike think about all the time since they tend to drop a lot more money for gaming keyboards and naturally none wish to have them ruined by water or a soda? However the introduction of the k310 washable keyboard means that we are one step closer to seeing washable water resistant gaming keyboards and that's very good news. That aside there aren't many thing one can say about the k310, it's small, light, water resistant and quite durable but unfortunately although it worked fine when using our small file server for daily tasks i can't say the same about typing long documents since it doesn't offer good feedback and the keys are way too soft (that however comes down to personal preference).
Aside being water proof the k310 washable keyboard by Logitech has another great feature and that's its price since currently it's set at USD29.99 inside the USA (Purchase Directly from Amazon.com) and at 34Euros inside the EU (Purchase Directly from Amazon.co.uk). Granted the price could be even less but let's not forget that we are talking about a Logitech product and not an OEM one so build quality and of course warranty are also large factors that determine the price of a product. Personally i don't really like wireless keyboards (at least in their current state) so the k310 has found a place right next to our small file server (meaning right next to several soda cans) and since this will probably be the father of all washable gaming keyboards to follow we are happy to award it with our Golden Award.
