tools with a smart aluminum dial. For example, with a touch, tap or turn you can adjust image brightness, contrast and saturation
in Adobe Photoshop, or create and adjust charts in Microsoft Excel®. The creative input dial gives you the ultimate control and

“Our new flagship Logitech CRAFT keyboard is for all creators who spend a lot of time designing and creating - who want to work
with greater precision and feel connected to their work," said Art O’Gnimh, global head of keyboards at Logitech. "The creative
input dial gives you instant access to the functions you need, the moment you need them, allowing you to increase your productivity
by simply touching the dial. CRAFT puts you in your creative element – every time you sit at the desk.”
The touch-sensitive aluminum creative input dial, called the Crown, recognizes the apps you are using and gives instant access
to the tools you need. With a slight touch of the Crown you can instantly access context-specific functions -- like brush size,
brightness, chart type, font size -- tap to change the function and turn to change the selected function’s value. Installing custom
profiles in Logitech Options™ Software maximizes the creative process when working with Adobe Photoshop CC, Adobe Illustrator CC,
Adobe Premiere Pro CC, Adobe InDesign CC and Microsoft PowerPoint®, Excel® and Word® (Microsoft functionalities work on PC only at
this time). The Crown brings comfort, immediacy and convenience to your creative process and allows for increased two-handed
interactions. You can also have access to global controls - giving you the ability to change desktops, navigate between apps, or
adjust volume - and assign one additional Crown function in each of your favorite apps.
CRAFT also features smart illumination with backlighting that detects your hands and adjusts lighting automatically depending on
the room conditions. The keys are crafted for comfort, in a full-size familiar layout, with each individual key engineered for
stability and precision. CRAFT looks great alongside other premium desktop accessories by Logitech, such as the Logitech MX Sound, Logitech Spotlight Presentation Remote and Logitech MX Master 2S.
Additionally with the touch of an Easy-Switch™ button, you can easily switch between – and type on – any three connected
devices, whether you are using a Windows® PC or Mac®. Select from either a Logitech Unifying™ USB or Bluetooth® Low
Energy technology to connect to your computer.

The Logitech CRAFT Advanced Keyboard is expected to be available in October 2017 at Logitech.com and select retail stores for a
