Stylish, well made and effective.
I originally bought a different keyboard from this same company, which can be found at the following link. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07XLYMXY3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I have several computers in one room and I had hoped that a multi device wireless keyboard, would enable me to cut down on a bit of desktop space. Unfortunately, although I liked the aesthetics of the keyboard, it failed to reliably connect to more than one device, and I returned it to Amazon after spending a very frustrating couple of hours trying to get it functional. Having learned that 2.4G connections work reliably in my office, but that bluetooth connections do not, I abandoned the idea of 'one keyboard to rule them all' and purchased a couple of these, instead. I own a couple of highly effective Logitech K400i 2.4G keyboards, and considered buying another two of this model, especially as they were on sale at the time of purchase. Then I saw this product, also on sale, at a very slightly cheaper price than the Logitech board, and ordered. The product arrived the next working day. It looks good, the keys are well spaced, with a good, positive action that is pleasant to type upon. Without disassembling the unit, I cannot say for sure, but the keys feel like they have a plastic scissor below the button, with a membrane below that. No keyboard of this type is going to give anything like the kind of tactile sensation experienced when typing on a mechanical board, but if you are used to using a fairly high end laptop on which to type, you are going to feel right at home with this. The trackpad works and seems as effective as the pad on the Logictech boards. I am using these two boards with Lenovo M920 Tiny PC's, both running Windows 10 Pro, so I don't use gestures, and cannot comment on how well they are supported. Set up was very simple. Plug in the RF dongle, and that's it. Good to go. Aesthetically speaking, you'll either like this, or you won't. The brushed metal body of the board is going to be a fingerprint magnet, but to my eyes, it looks quite good on the desk. The keys have a pleasant look, the plastic used feels fairly high quality,and the 'chiclet' style will be immediately familiar to those of you who like to be told what to like by a certain manufacturer, although I have doubts about the longevity of the legends if you are intending to use the board all day, every day. All in all, I am pleased with my purchases. I cannot comment on the reliability or longevity of this board, but generally speaking, this is an excellent product that is completely suited to my needs, that cost less than £20 when I bought it.

Faulty item but excellent Artek customer service
***UPDATE 03/03/2021*** I have now rested the replacement keyboard in an office environment. No problems whatsoever. Really nice keyboard to type on. Works well. ***UPDATE 15/01/2021*** Since returning this item Artek have contacted me via email with a generous offer to send a replacement item free of charge. This is despite the fact that I have been given a refund by Amazon. Despite having already bought an alternative keyboard from a competing brand I have accepted their offer on the basis that the original keyboard may have been faulty rather than design flawed. At this stage I am very impressed with the level of customer care that has been demonstrated and will update the review again after I have tested the replacement keyboard. ***ORIGINAL REVIEW*** At first glance this thing is good value. It's well made, feels sturdy and made from quality materials. The layout of the buttons is good for man sized hands and the media controls are nice to have. However, I had a few problems with it which ultimately have caused me to return it. The main issue is the wireless range; this is nowhere near the stated ten metres that is stated in the product details. Suffered with an intermittency from my sofa about four metres away from the receiver, mostly when using the touchpad. I had to move an armchair very close to the receiver, about 1.5 metres away. Even then I had to hold the keyboard up in the air to use the touchpad. I think it would probably work fine if it was placed on a desk, right next to the receiver but this is no good for use in a living room as a media controller. Aside from the range issues this keyboard would benefit from some further mouse buttons placed ergonomically where the hands naturally sit when holding/using it on your lap. For instance, on the underside of the keyboard where your left hand naturally falls (or in the are above the F1 key). Overall, very disappointing. Sometimes you get what you pay for.

This is a very short review, because the keyboard and the touchpad both work great! What more can I write? A poem about a keyboard? (For linux users like me, a three button touchpad would have been more useful, but I knew about it when I purchased it, so cannot complain.)

This was no good! after six months of casual use, it stopped working. It was not responding. It was never bounced or dropped. Poor quality....

Compact, but works very well. I wasn’t expecting much to be honest. But the top of the keyboard is brushed aluminum with normal size keys. It doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy. The trackpad is a small. About the size of one from a Chromebook or Netbook. I think it would be perfect is they eliminated the volume buttons, home/back buttons and make the track pad bigger. Maybe made it an inch longer to place them in a line vertically between the trackpad and keyboard. But really it’s a very good wireless keyboard that I use on my media pc in the living room. I would definitely compare it to a Logitech before they got crazy expensive on Amazon & eBay.
