In an age where spending extended hours at the computer has become the norm, the demand for ergonomic solutions is surging. Logitech has just dropped an ergonomic answer in the form of “Wave Keys.”
Wave Keys is a wireless ergonomic keyboard specially engineered for comfort. The keyboard’s standout feature is its signature wave design that is optimized for comfortable typing. Here’s the best part: you won’t need to relearn how to type. It’s designed to effortlessly adapt to your natural hand movements. No more worries about wrist fatigue, thanks to the integrated cushioned palm rest that provides reliable support throughout your workday.
Wave Keys joins Logitech’s ERGO Series, which encompasses various workplace wellbeing products. This latest keyboard was carefully crafted after rounds of user testing, including at Logitech’s Ergo Lab. It has received the stamp of approval from US Ergonomics.
This multi-OS compatible keyboard connects seamlessly via Bluetooth® or the included Logi BOLT receiver, ensuring your data’s security. And here’s the kicker: it connects to up to three devices simultaneously. Whether you’re working on your Mac, PC, or iPad, you can easily switch between them with a simple tap of a button.
But that’s not all. With the Logi Options+ App, you can personalize your experience. Create productivity shortcuts, like “Do Not Disturb,” to keep your focus intact. Establish Smart Actions to save time and keep your workflow smooth. This includes a one-touch morning routine to kickstart your day and relaxation time to give you well-deserved breaks.
Logitech is not merely keeping pace with the times; it’s ahead of the curve. As per RationalStat’s market report, ergonomic needs are set to grow by 4.6% over the next seven years.
“We believe that everybody deserves to feel good at the end of a day of work, so we set about designing workspace essentials that are as attractive and approachable as they are ergonomic,” says Art O’Gnimh, the General Manager of Core Personal Workspace at Logitech.
In line with Logitech’s commitment to making products that enhance lives while being environmentally responsible, Wave Keys is certified carbon neutral. The packaging is eco-friendly, and sourced from FSC™-certified forests and other controlled sources. Wave Keys also contributes to reducing plastic waste. It incorporates certified post-consumer recycled plastic, giving a second life to old consumer electronics. For Graphite, this figure stands at a remarkable 61%, and for Off-White, it’s 46%.
Pricing & Availability
Wave Keys is set to retail at RM299, available in the elegant shades of Graphite and Off-White.
You can grab yours starting from October 13, 2023, on Logitech’s official Lazada and Shopee pages and at participating retailers.
Google’s Android Auto has been getting constant updates for a while now and is getting the attention it finally deserves. Android Auto has been a blessing for plenty of Android users in their cars. With every update, they just get better, more useful, and even more relevant to drivers today than ever before. You can use Google Assistant seamlessly in your car, for example. You can also reply to text messages via Android Auto, obviously via voice activation. In one of their latest updates, the interface now allows you to spread the screen out in multiple windows with Google Maps or Waze taking up most of the real estate while allowing another app like YouTube Music, Tidal, or Spotify in a smaller window. Even your notification can get its own window in the latest interface.

In their latest update, Google is looking to make Android Auto a better journey companion than before by bringing more apps into the Android Auto Ecosystem. For those that are always on-the-go but can never get away from their smartphones for work, Google is bringing Zoom and WebEx into Android Auto for a more seamless video call experience even when you are stuck in a terrible traffic jam. For the long-drawn-out standstill traffic, they are also bringing Prime Video into the fold. Best of all though, for better journey planning, they are bringing weather updates via The Weather Channel app into Android Auto.
The Weather Channel app has been the most popular weather prediction app on Android devices worldwide. It is only natural to start bringing the app into Android Auto for the purpose of journey planning. The Android Auto version of the app will operate a little differently from the smartphone app though. There are still some similarities like push weather updates, but now it is more catered toward your specific journeys. It updates the users of incoming bad weather, for example, just so that you can either plan around the traffic build up, or brace for extended journey times. The Android Auto app also can offer hourly forecasts, follow-me alerting, and Trip View radar that allows you to be your own F1 race engineer watching out for rain on your journey.

The updates are being rolled out to Android Auto units by select manufacturers currently and will roll out to other users following the select manufacturers. They are also rolling out digital key support in select regions for select manufacturers and models. Of course, while that nifty feature allows you to lock and unlock your car via your smartphone, you want to keep in mind that it will only work if your care comes natively with Android Auto. More information on the latest updates on Android Auto can be found on their website.
