Accompanying it’s a bit bigger brother that we have reviewed recently, comes the smaller but also quite good keyboard that can find its place in many home theaters, or be a good support for different gadgets like tablets or phones, for users that don’t find typing on a screen comfortable. It is the companies’ attempt to make as small as possible keyboard to accompany this kind of devices.

The keyboard has dimensions that are not bigger than a standard phone (108x58x11mm) and it weighs 75g that makes it perfect for putting it in the pocket, or in a tablet bag.It is one of the best little keyboards on the market and it has a full QWERTY layout, with full “F” function keys and even some multimedia keys found their place on it, in total it has 66 keys. Of course, the keyboard is using the “Fn” button for usage of some of the functions but nevertheless, it’s great that all of these buttons found their place on it. To further the amazement, it even has backlight on the keys that will help any user find their way, even in the darkest surroundings, making it perfect for a dark room cinema, or gaming.

The keys provide certain resistance (they have a “click”), which notifies you if you pressed a button. Because it is a small keyboard, the user will need a certain adjustment to its dimensions but, that time is small. In the multimedia department it has (Volume Up, Volume Down, Play, Previous, Next), that are good enough for controlling any multimedia player.  The keyboard works via Bluetooth connection and it has range of 10m that is more than enough. The keyboards battery has a long life span and it can be recharged by a USB cable. It works in almost all the operating systems, from Windows to Symbian, Android and Mac OS.

This is a great little keyboard that has our thumbs up, for every user that finds that typing on a screen is not comfortable enough.
