Cons: Kinda big for a Playbook
Pros: Love the sale price! Comment:
For $20, wanted to try it with my Playbook. While not all function keys are not designed for the Playbook, the numbers and alphanumeric keys work perfectly. I'm composing this review right now with it. |

Cons: "Sticky Keys", no off switch.
Pros: Good Range, Responsive, Does what its suppose to do. Comment:
Good keyboard overall, some of the keys seem kinda "sticky" but other than that its a pretty good keyboard. Could be a better build though. |

Cons: -Feels cheap, made completely of plastic-Keys are surprising hard to push down (I normally use Cherry MX Black and Brown Keyboards)
Pros: -Cheap-Does it's job-Wireless/Bluetooth Comment:
It does what it's meant to do at an affordable price, however if using for a Mac, I personally would go with something wired (just my preference). Also while the shell of the keyboard looks like aluminum it is actually made of plastic. |

Cons: Overly pedantic pairing procedure gets annoying
Pros: Inexpensive Comment:
This KB pretty much does what it says. As mentioned in other reviews on other sites, some of the chicklets can tend to 'grab' at the sides if you press them a bit obliquely, I'm considering rubbbing some bike chain wax based silicone lubricant around the edges of them with a Q-Tip to address that problem. The other annoyance is the pairing procedure, every time you want to reconnect the KB to your device, it sends a randomly generated 6 digit authentication number to your device that you then have to key into the keyboard. If you wait too long or make a typo, you have to start over. I'm using this with a Sumsung Galaxy SII phone so it's not just for Mac, after all BT is BT isn't it? I did find that with some of the phone's virtual KB's they would conflict and keep caps lock turned on after you struck the shift key on the BT Keyboard, so you may have to change the virtual KB on the phone if you use it for that. While some reviewers critized battery life, I found no no problems, probably they were inexperienced with BT and had unreasonable expectations. |

Cons: - not as sleek or nice looking as a real apple bluetooth keyboard
Pros: - works with iPad- no problems connecting- price Comment:
I bought this so I can use a real keyboard with my iPad and so far it's been working great. Once I pressed the connect button on back of keyboard my iPAD was able to discover it quickly and connected once I followed the iPAD instructions. Works great so far. It does feel a little bigger than a regular Apple bluetooth keyboard and definitely not as sleek. But for the sale price, it's worth it. |

Cons: - It's not quite a nice in reality as in the pic. There is a thick plastic white border around it which isn't clear from the picture. But looks ok- This is plastic and not metal- Uses AAA batteries which are way more expensive than AA and last a lot less time
Pros: - Looks very close to Apple's own- Easy to set up- Seems reliable- Less than half the cost of the Apple equivalent when on sale- Dedicated to Apple and not the PC - well good for Mac owners but not PC Comment:
I bought this to see what it's like. Got it on sale for very reasonable money. It was very easy to set up and looks quite nice when matched with an iMac. Anybody can tell quickly this is not an Apple keyboard, but it looks so much better than the charcoal or grey PC keyboards, plus it's got the Apple keys.I have not used it much though, so cannot comment on the reliability of the connection. I think Bluetooth is reliable so don't anticipate problems. Replacing the 2 xAAA batteries is going to be a lot more expensive than on Apple's keyboard which is AA. Not a big deal as the cost saving more than justifies buying this instead of an Apple version. However this is NOT a look-a-like when using it, and has a plastic light feel to it.It's good though - saves a lot of cash and looks and plays the part well. |

Cons:
Not the Mac Keyboard
Pros: Mimics the look of the Mac keyboard. Works with all my devices (iPad, PC, Mac Mini). Comment:
For the price, its a great alternative to the Mac keyboard and gets the job done. |
I use this with my iphone current and plan to use it with a computer in the future. Typing isn't very good but it's still better than the touch, bought during a sale. I don't think it's really worth it's full price, get it either pm'd or on sale.
