Light, Inexpensive and Well Designed
The OMOTON Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard, is the perfect companion for those who want a lightweight, easily transportable and well functioning keyboard to accompany their tablet or laptop.I travel with my iPad Pro everywhere. It's replaced my laptop in terms of portability, However, one thing I always decided against was the Apple Smart Keyboard Case for my iPad. It was a ludicrous price, not to mention I wasn't too sure on the aesthetics of the keyboard itself. But, I needed a keyboard to accompany the day-to-day tasks I was using my iPad for.The OMOTON Ultra-Slim Bluetooth Keyboard has certainly ticked all the boxes I needed from it.This keyboard looks like an exact replica of a Macbook keyboard (layout-wise of course, don't remember seeing white keys on a Macbook?!), so for those familiar with this keyboard layout, you will feel right at home. Not to deter non-Mac users however, this keyboard is very ergonomic.If you're not familiar with Mac keyboards/functions however, there are a few little quirks to be aware of. Such as the '@' symbol is actually Shift+2, not Shift+(@/' key). You'll also have to contend with the Command (CMD) instead of Ctrl, but for the most part these function EXACTLY the same as a normal PC keyboard.The keyboard is very lightweight, powered by 2 AAA batteries. It's non-adjustable, with it being propped up by about an inch at the very back by the battery housing, which suits myself as I prefer a keyboard to be 'propped up'.The connectivity couldn't be simpler. There is a on/off switch behind the keyboard. Simply flick on and connect your keyboard, much like you would a pair of wireless headphones or speakers and you're ready to go.The keyboard is very responsive and works on an iPad just as I would expect it to, allowing me to further utilise the iPad's potential.

Great wee keyboard
was looking at buying a new laptop for email and such as mine had packed in but couldn’t justify the cost just now. Had a iPad sitting at home used mainly for browsing the internet but never much liked typing on it so bought this keyboard and a stand for the iPad. Must say I’m impressed with the set up and the keyboard works very well. Easy to connect with Bluetooth and the keys are very responsive. Writing emails with no problem.

Good keyboard substitute
This is a reasonable quality product, with the lettering, plastics on both upper side and underside being high quality. The design itself is also 'Apple'esk though with a sprayed metallic silver finish over plastic, which at this price point you can't complain. The finish is decent enough. The underside has 4 domed rubber feet which is a nice design touch (compared to rectangular ones) and looks 'designed'. this isn't an ugly keyboard, and is fresh looking. Thumbs up in this department.Typing wise, the keyword feel is also quite good. Where it falls over is the return button is essentially not in the same position as the Apple keyboard. This keyboard has the character \ where you normally strike it on the Apple keyboard, so if you are a touch typer and change from this keyboard to other Apple keyboards, you need to adjust your typing for the return key. You can see the differences of the return key in my photos. The Apple return key is vertical with the major strike area at the top where the character / is on this keyboard. This keyboard's return key is horizontal. Various other symbols are not in the same position as the Apple keyboard though these are very infrequently used symbols so is not too critical. The only symbol that you might use more frequently that is 'out of place' is the pipe symbol | which is located above the return key instead of on the left of the return key on the Apple keyboard. But with symbols you normally look for them rather than touch type them, so not a big deal. The return key for touch typing may through you if you regularly switch from Apple keyboard to this one. Not an issue for iPhone users or Ipad.There is also no explicit ESC key in the top left. But pressing FN and the top left 'square' button button does the same thing. So no sleep lost there. It does have the all important COMMAND, ALT/OPTION and CONTROL keys in the correct place and size on both sides of the space bar so this is the major plus for Apple users. 5 stars in this department. Other generic keyboards cater for windows.The other minor issue is the front centre of the keyboard underneath the space bar is slightly raised by a few millimetres, it's just manufacturing of the board which has inherited a slight bow. I bought two of these keyboards and it is present in both so isn't an individual defect but a manufacturing characteristic / consequence of the material used and design and will be present in most.If you type with any real pressure the keyboard will flex because of this bow, if you are a light touch typist who feathers the keyboard then the flex won't be noticed. If you press the space bar firmly you can hear it knock against the desk. But in real world touch typing with gentle pressure it isn't too noticeable.So in summary, good keyboard, only real issue for me is the size and shape of the return key.

Great Bluetooth keyboard for ipad
Buying a Bluetooth keyboard for my ipad was a spur of the moment purchase. Daughter had to borrow my MacBook for home-schooling and so using the ipad was my only alternative - but not very efficient using the touch-screen keyboard for extended use so decided to find a solution. Subsequently found the Omoton keyboard.Firstly at £18 this is a very cost-effective option! As a standalone keyboard (rather than an iPad cover with built-in keyboard) it has the feel of using a laptop keyboard and is well-sized - large enough to have decent keys, but small enough to tuck out of the way when not in use, or carry in a briefcase/bag if taking out of the home.Very quick to set up - two AAA batteries inserted, press the connect button, pair on the iPad Bluetooth menu and you’re off! No additional software/apps needed.I also have a lightning to HDMI cable (bought separately), so have been able to connect the ipad to a monitor and use the Omoton keyboard to help the ipad act more like a laptop.Overall very pleased with quality of the keyboard, price and ease of use...have just typed this review on the keyboard and significantly easier than using the ipad touch keypad!

A must for iPads.
I bought this for my iPad and it’s a great addition to it. The Apple keyboards are quite expensive. This keyboard is sturdy, easy to set and the perfect size.
