ArteckBluetooth Keyboard, Stainless Steel Universal Portable Multi-Device Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard for iOS, Android, Windows iPad Tablet PC Smartphone

This is a perfectly fine keyboard, although there's nothing "fancy" about it. Pairs easily with Windows 10, and the keys are spaced out nicely, meaning that the typing experience is pleasant enough and typing speed is not hindered, once I got used to the low profile-ness of the keyboard I was able to get close to my peak 75wpm typing speed.The stainless steel construction seems sturdy (although I've only been using the keyboard for about a week), and adds a nice weight to the keyboard, which coupled with the rubber feet underneath means that the keyboard doesn't slip and slide around my desk. The keyboard does go to sleep after a period of time which saves battery, but does mean that you have to remember to wait for the keyboard to wake up before keypresses are recognised.Recharging is done via micro USB which means that phone chargers can be used to recharge the keyboard if a PC USB port is unavailable. Additionally, the keyboard works which charging (I've seen some rechargeables that don't). Since I've only had the keyboard a week I'm unable to comment on exactly how long the battery will last, although I haven't had to recharge it yet, so it's at least a week!The only real oddity is that the "|" and "\" characters are on the Z and X keys which means to type either of those characters you need to use the "Fn + Z" or "Fn + X" key combination which takes a little getting used to. In "normal" typing that isn't an issue, but as a programmer these are keys that are used more often. Not an issue, just a bit of an oddity.Overall I am very pleased with this keyboard. It feels nice to type on, and works consistently well.

Keyboard is good size and keys are fine for the price. Rechargeable battery is convenient. The problem is that it does not reliably pair to my iPad Pro. It paired without problem the very first time, then later became really sluggish (a keypress would take several seconds to register). Only solved by powering both the iPad and the keyboard off and on again. I switch keyboard off when not using. When switched on again it will not reconnect automatically to iPad, and attempting to connect through the iPad bluetooth settings is unsuccessful. I have to power off and on the iPad and keyboard, then pair again through bluetooth settings. Most frustrating.Update 26 December 2021The seller contacted me and offered a replacement keyboard as my first keyboard was under warranty. It arrived Christmas Eve, so I’ve only had it a couple of days but it works perfectly. Connected first time, and now connects automatically without any issues. Just what I was looking for. It has been consistently responsive - no issues with lag between key presses. For the money it is really is a very good keyboard. Easy to type on. Compact design but feels solid enough and the rechargeable battery is convenient. So Iupgrade to 5 stars - for quality, value for money and great customer service.

UPDATE! See original review below and take all of the positives described.Seller responded and replaced the keyboard. Now it works as intended, I'm really pleased with the purchase. I have even waited a month or so since the replacement to ensure that the gremlins of the first have not reappeared. If I had received this fully-working keyboard originally, I would definitely be writing a 5 star review. Make sure you get a good one and this will definitely satisfy all of your requirements for a stylish, sturdy, lightweight yet full featured keyboardSadly, there is no review category on Amazon for "Reliability" for which I would rate it 0. If I had rated it in its first week, 4.5 stars overall as it feels like a quality product from the start: well built, sturdy, satisfying key action and so comfortable to use. Furthermore, it was a doddle to connect* to my pc, my iPad and my android phone. It has all the features of a larger keyboard (save the numpad) that you could ever need packed on to a space-saving and portable footprint.Reading the above, this could have been my favourite ever keyboard to use IF it had only worked properly!! Initially I thought that it was a bit fickle on waking from its energy-saving hibernation mode, often needing re-connecting. However, this minor annoyance was only the start of it. As many other reviewers have mentioned, after only 2 months a fault developed where it would suddenly stop registering any keystrokes for 10-15 seconds then dump all of them in one go with numerous repeats and omissions. This issue is not confined to any specific keys, it occurs at random; sometimes recurring frequently and sometimes appearing not to have any issues at all.There is no identifiable source to this keyboard's problems and I have since replaced it with a different Bluetooth keyboard without experiencing any repeat of these issues. Disappointing, as my new Bluetooth keyboard has been 100% reliable but is nowhere near as comfortable and feels cheap and tacky by comparison. I could, nevertheless, type this review without wishing to throw the ARTECK keyboard out of the window in frustration....
