Mini Folding Bluetooth Keyboard Wireless Keypad

I purchased this in 2022 so that I could write my travel blogs from my Samsung cell phone without all the problems I cause with ˜fat thumbs. It was perfect on our 6-week Camino de Santiago, as it was lightweight and easy to use. It also worked well the following spring, island hopping in Greece. So many people commented on it. On my last trip abroad in January 2024, only some keys worked. But for the price, convenience, and light weight, I still got another one, which is charging up as I write this.

Was able to use this recently on a trip. Worked perfectly over Bluetooth using Samsung Dex. Was very usable and I didn't struggle much with the keyboard size.

This keyboard is GREAT for when you need to pack light but need to be able to type with a keyboard on your phone. I love it! It works through bluetooth. I particularly love it when I am traveling super light and need to type out something long on a phone on an airplane. You should see the looks. People can't believe how small it is when folded and yet so functional as a keyboard.

Set it up pretty quickly and seems to work just as advertised. My only complaint would be that there are two sets of directions included (so that's a bit confusing) and on the product listing I found more that seemed a bit different. NONE had any instruction on setting it up with Windows, which I use. A person not as computer savvy, might have challenges. Also, an on/off button would be great. Finally, I'll echo the observations of other reviewers that there is minimal "aluminum" in the construction. It's pretty much plastic. I do like it and the inclusion of a case/pouch is very nice.

Connects well and had good battery life. It's a small keyboard so it's still not the easiest thing to type on, but it beats the on screen phone keyboard by miles.Any time I'd be tempted to carry a larger tablet or laptop just so I could type I just bring this instead.

I paired this with my phone for some apps. It is sometimes slow to detect keypresses, especially if you pause for a bit. But it is one of the nicest portable keyboards I've used and is very compact. I like it.

I have the silver / aluminum colored version.I've used many different portable bluetooth keyboards, and you're always going to have sacrifices when it is less than full size, so you really should not "compete" against those products.What I like:- Small, long & skinny form factor when folded up (and it came with a pull-string cloth sack)- Multi-OS compatibility (using it with IOS in my case)- Mini USB (not micro USB) charging cable (less likely to damage the port)- Function keys for brightness, volume, home screen, etc- It works... it's possible to type quickly, once you adapt to the less-than-full-size keyboard and a few keys that got moved which aren't used oftenWhat I don't like:- Functions on the keys are in a navy blue sticker....VERY hard to see (such as brightness up / brightness down). You'll have to memorize them.- Cannot use it on my lap, the keyboard is too floppy because of all the hinge points. MUST use it on a firm surface.- Instructions are in a micro font and in poor English, get it figured out and then you're good going forward- Some less-used characters are moved around on the keyboardI like it as a phone keyboard where it can be packed and used in a pinch. I also have an iPad Mini, and I've used other products that are better for that product.Overall a good value for the purchase and no regrets.

Overall, I really like this keyboard! It fits in most of my pockets, it's heavy enough that I think it's durable, and the keys are as responsive as any other Bluetooth keyboard (I've used tons). I can't stand on-screen keyboards, mostly because I use magnification (and because I touch-type and never look at the keys, so hunt-&-peck is super-inefficient and super-annoying lol). So while technically phones are computers now, this was what I needed to make my iPhone feel more like a *real* computer. :)On the negative side I have only two criticisms:1. I had to research how to turn it on and pair it with my phone online. There is a manual in size 0.007 microfont (if you can do ultra-fine print), but I had to YouTube it lol). But the lack of a power switch made it a bit confusing, and what I could make out of the instructions was in Broken English, a language I don't speak fluently. Sadly that is becoming the standard, with so many things like this being made in foreign countries, so I guess it's not that big a deal. I just wish it had a link to some online docs or something. They could have just printed their website, in ordinary-size human-readable text, and left out all the other tiny-finy mini-text trying to cram a manual in there (lol).2. As a touch-typist, the keyboard layout is aggravating, to say the least. They did some very... well let's just say "unconventional" things to save space. It kind of reminds me of a Commodore or some other early model home computer, from back before keyboards had a standard layout. I have the same issue with my VIC-20. And if I had an Atari or a BBC Micro or something, I bet those keyboards would be weird by today's standards too.But having said that, I really like being able to carry around a keyboard with me anywhere I go. If having a tactile keyboard is something you want, this is definitely worth a look. Once you get past the bizarre layout and some of its other quirks, it's totally usable. I'd take it over an on-screen keyboard any day!

I'm now writing this review with this keyboard. Since this is designed for portable keyboard its little cramped so it might take a while to get used to it however the layout is not that bad almost same as the regular keyboard other than +-=_ symbols. And the feeling of pressing the keyboard is pretty good.As its described, you can connect to two devices at the same time. I âm using IOS system switching between my ipad pro and iphone xr. There's no problem at all switching between the two, its pretty quick and easy. You just need to press fn+z or fn+m according to whatever device you want to use, it will automatically connect to the preferred device.It has decent battery life which lasts pretty long. It also shows how much battery is left if you press fn+alt. But the downside for ios user is that you have to bring separate 5pin cable to recharge it, but considering battery lasts pretty long you can just charge it at home.For people who use more than one language can switch between languages by pressing ctrl+space or caps. It will show which setting you want to type in, in my case English, Emoji, and Korean.I like the feature that could hold the device. It can hold the weight of my ipad with the case on with apple pencil. My ipad is in silver and the silver keyboard match so well with my ipad :)The only downside of this portable bluetooth keyboard is that you can only use it on the desk. The part where it unfolds is not locked when its open, so you need a flat surface to use this keyboard. Overall Im very satisfied with my purchase. I will always bring this with me to school.

I have two other old, small bluetooth keyboards. I got this one because of the design an becuase it loked like it was mre than plastic. Fast excellent delivery. Tried it out with an old out of use Tracfone that still works on wifi. Great keyboard. It unfolds like a foldout kids book. I gave it a full charge. Then I put my old Tracfone ZTE majesty pro 8 GB phone on bluetooth, put it on the built in edge=stand, and did the Fn-C command and it linked immediately. Worked great as a mini keyboard. Does not fold laterally. It fold up on itself on the full horizontal. Comes with an excellent soft holder. Phone sits sideways. I wrote an extensive email. Only problem was that Google spellchecker on android for some of the words I was using. Not flimsy - has aluminum casing for the most part. I will take it around and up date if it has any problems. I was very impressed. Light weight. I would not step on it - not that strong, but it would be fine mixed in with books, papers, etc, in briefcase or small shoulder bag. Needs a flat surface, but a clipboard would work. Phone sits, does not attach - but could use a larger rubber band to "attach" phone if on a plane or train.
