Battery dies quickly because there in no on/off switch
This keyboard only has a battery compartment in back and nothing else. The company was too cheap to add an on/pff switch to extend battery life.At first, I thought okay, no switch, maybe it has a sleep mode when not used to save battery.Apparently the drain is constant so it you don't used it for a week or 2, the next time you need to replace batteries again.Even my extreme long life Logitech mice can stay on for months has an on/off switch. Yet this co. was tpp cjeap to include one.include

Great budget wireless keyboard. Definitely recommended for the price. Just a few minor complaints
I got this for my 13 inch macbook when the built-in keyboard stopped working. At only $25 (US Dollars), this is overall a great budget keyboard.Recommended if: You're tight on cash, and you need a portable wireless keyboard. Or if you just want a backup keyboard.Not recommended if: You are willing to spend more (maybe $45-50) AND this is going to be your primary keyboard for more than just a few months. Also if you don't mind your keyboard being wired, I'd go with a wired one (you can easily find a better wired keyboard for equal price). Also not recommended for gaming - if you're gonna be gaming, I would DEFINITELY recommend a wired keyboard.Pros: Small and thin, fits easily into my backpack. Portable. Cheap. Have been using for 2 months and works fine. Looks and feels relatively nice. Fits perfectly on top of my macbook (see image) so it doesnt take up extra space on my desk. The receiver is small and unobstrusive.Cons: All pretty minor, but worth mentioning1) There is no on/off switch. It seems like it goes into some sort of sleep mode after a few minutes, and then turns on at the press of a key (not 100% sure about this but that's my impression). This probably isn't much of an issue (and perhaps is favorable/convenient if you always leave it on your desk), but since I travel with it in my backpack every day, I get the feeling the battery life drains a little bit whenever one of the keys is pressed in my backpack, which I'm sure is happening all the time.2) The battery compartment is slightly weirdly shaped and I've struggled for over a minute several times to remove batteries lol (it uses AAA batteries).3) The spacebar is a bit finicky and doesn't register super well unless you press super hard, or press right in the middle. Not the case for any other keys. Def not a huge deal but if you'll be using this to type a lot, it can be slightly annoying until you get used to it. Or if you already tend to press the spacebar in the middle, this won't matter for you.Disclosure: The company that makes this product promised that if I wrote this review they'd send me a free wireless mouse (which I also need since my macbook trackpad also stopped working lol). They didn't specify that the review had to be good or anything. But realistically I probably would not have written this review otherwise. I do feel that the above are my honest thoughts about this product. I just figured I would state this to be as transparent as possible.

Works great!
This is a small compact keyboard. I needed a new keyboard for my Mac desktop. The Mini Wireless Keyboard works wonderfully. On my old keyboard the @ button stopped working. Needless to say that was a pain. As soon as my new Mini keyboard arrived I set it up. I had no problems. It connected fast. I actually like this small keyboard better than the full size one I used to use. I would recommend it to anyone who needs a mini keyboard. I would buy this product again.

Great purchase
This keyboard is great for the price. It is very light weight and easy to transport. I love that the USB connector stores inside of the back of the keyboard. I have a tendency to lose small items so it should help me keep track of it. I really like using this keyboard with my laptop so that I can elevate the screen but still have the ability to type at a comfortable level and maintain great posture. It is very simple and easy to use. It connects immediately with the computer. I'm still using the same batteries I put in originally, so I cannot yet comment on battery life.

Very nice product; great value
The Apple compatible keyboard is perfect. I arrived nicely packaged. After inserting to AAA batteries and plugging the Bluetooth transceiver into the USB port, the wireless keyboard was instantly responsive. I love the small size since I wanted to replace my large clunky black keyboard. I am using it with my Mac Mini computer. So far the keyboard looks every bit as good as the pricy Apple keyboard and works just as well. I may purchase another one for my home computer.

Love the spring in and the silence of the keys!
So far, I'm really satisfied with my choice of this particular brand and model. I knew the size factor would be small and slim, but am satisfied with the durability and build so far. The keys more silent than I anticipated and I really lke the bounce on them. The feel is nice. I had no connectivity issues whatsoever from the start, which is great. It's really easy to set up and start using. Note well that it is a PC-forward keyboard so the Alt, Ctrl, function keys, etc. are laid out in that form. This may be a little foreign to Mac users who rely on shortcuts with the option, command, etc. keys in a certain place on the board. Over all, i'm satisfied with the product. It's smooth and easy to use. Would purchase again.
