Long Charge - nice feel

BATTERY LIFEI waited until I had to charge the keyboard before writing up this review. I received this the first week of December, charged it, and now this is 3/20/24 (almost 4 months later) and I am now charging it for the first time. I actually forgot that this was a rechargeable. I was looking for the battery slots and then remembered I had to plug it in. The keyboard light (red) lightning bolt had come on a few times but I figured I would just wait until the battery went dead. Then just a moment ago, I couldn't type any longer. As soon as I plugged it in where it's getting a charge, I was able to start using it immediately. I like that I can also turn it off when I go out of town so that it preserves the battery, although, admittedly I sometimes forget about this features. I use this keyboard daily as I do trading in the morning and I also do consulting work. I'm a techy person and just enjoy being on the computer.ERGONOMICSI personally love the feel of this type of keyboard with shallow keys that I can feel being pressed. I used to have a bluetooth HP keyboard that felt like this and went out, causing me to buy this one. It has a full keyboard and number pad. I use the Fn lock so that the volume, play controls work since I don't use the regular F keys as often.CONNECTIONI had no issues connecting this to my computer. I plugged in the usb dongle, turned it on, and my laptop found it immediately.VALUEAs of today, 3/20/24, this keyboard is only around $25 and I think this is a great value.CONThe only con is that it isn't spillproof. My last keyboard, I accidentally dripped coffee onto it and it quit working. I believe this one will be the same, so I am trying to be very careful.Mine shipped directly from Arktek and arrived right away. It's been a great keyboard and I truly recommend it.Ver más

Amazing keyboard

The keyboard is great, especially for the price, it has the quality of a $80 keyboard. It's really slim and the keys feel light with the perfect feel to them. I'm able to type really quickly due to how light the keys are. The only problem with it is that it doesn't use a usb-c port to charge, it uses usb-micro-b. If they changed it to usb-c it would literally be perfect. But then again, you only need to charge it 4-5 times a year so it's not a huge deal.Ver más

Great Keyboard but profile too low

Okay, I've always owned and uses Logitech devices, and this is the 1st keyboard I own and use that's not Logitech. I love this keyboard after using it for work on a daily basis for about a month. It just works otb. This keyboard functions and feel is comparable to the Logitech Illuminated keyboard, only smaller and lower profile and without the lighted keys.- Keyboard layout is standard querty. So, no learning curve. The special function keys I have to get used to but this minor.- Key pressed sound is on the quiet side and with just the right amount of resistance.- LED indicators for battery, (num/cap/function) lock, power works great and clearly visible.- On/off switch is also great for saving battery, but I leave mine on all the time, except when it's in the laptop back during commute.- USB charging is also a great feature and charges fast.- Keyboard is super light weight, which I really like when carrying it around. I just shove it into my laptop backpack and go.- I only charge this once before use, and it's been approx. 1 month already.Workaround:- Height profile is too low (approx 1/2 the height of wrist pad) without anything to prop it up. After using this without a wrist pad for a few hours, my wrists started to hurt where they make contact with the table surface. Not the fault of the keyboard. I used a wrist pad, and noticed the awkwardness of my hands and fingers reaching slight downward to type. This is not ideal. I propped the keyboard on top of the box it came in, and at this height it is perfect with my wrist pad.My sister has a keyboard that doesn't have the (num and cap) lock indicators, so I got her this too. She loves this keyboard.-----Update March 13, 2023The product description says the battery "lasts for 6 months with single charge (based on 2 hours non-stop use per day)". This comes out to 360 hours (6 months x 30 days x 2 hours) of non-stop usage. Here my real life usage. I used this keyboard for normal work 8 hours per day, 5 days per week, since Feb 2023. Comes out to approximately 320 hours (40 days x 8 hours) of normal usage. I estimated the number of days and didn't exclude the weekends, because I sometimes use it with my personal laptop via a KVM. I never turn off the keyboard.The battery died on me today around mid morning. I was typing, but the characters registered intermittently. From experience, I suspect the battery, so I turned the keyboard off and then on. Typed again, and this time, only 1 or 2 characters registered and then it stopped completely. I looked at the charging symbol (electric or lightning) and it was off. The power button was all off. So, there's no visible indication to let the user know that the battery needs recharging.This also happened to my sister, who is less technical and have always used wired keyboard, struggled to figure out what caused her keyboard to stop working. The charging took approx 2-3 hours to complete, which is indicated by a green LED (electric/lightning symbol).Another odd issue I've encountered while using this keyboard with a KVM switch (JideTech KVM Switch HDMI 2 Port Box 4096x2160@60Hz 4:4:4 with Audio Mic and HDMI Cables Support HDMI 2.0,HDCP 2.2,HDR 10). When switching between my personal to work laptop, the keyboard would automatically enabled the caplock (caplock LED on) for the work laptop. I didn't have this problem before when using another keyboard. It doesn't happen when switching from work to personal laptop.Still a great little keyboard, though.Update June 11, 2023 - new keyboard with keys popped off.One of my wired keyboard died, so I bought another Artech keyboard. I came today and noticed the + and Enter keys were physically not attached to the keypad. I thought it was broken, but I reassembled the keys and it works just fine. My initial reaction was, "oh no. I have to return for a replacement :-(". However, after examining the keys, it was easy to figure out how to reassemble it. Now it looks just as normal as other keys and types just fine. Love this keyboard. Just need to be a little more sturdy so keys don't pop out if dropped or thrown around in the box.Again, it just works out of the box.

Smooth on the fingers

The best wireless keyboard on the market. So smooth on the fingers without the clicking noise.The customer support is A++When my keyboard stopped working, I submitted a support request and received an email within 1 day. After they confirmed, the keyboard stopped working, they mailed me a replacement within 3 days.Excellent product and excellent support!Ver más

Rechargeable keyboard

Nice keyboard. Love the aluminum backing. The keys are very smooth and quiet. I didn’t have any problems connecting to my computer. It rests almost flat on the desk. It would be nice if it had some type of height/angle adjustment, even if were a separate attachment included in the boxVer más
