## Description

Look no further for a quality keyboard that offers great value and the features you need. Enjoy the freedom and convenience of wireless technology. Quiet touch keys let you focus on the task at hand. And this keyboard also features Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) technology, which is designed to help protect your information by encrypting your keystrokes, for peace of mind.

Review: Great keyboard and decent price! - This is my second time purchasing this keyboard. It works well and is well worth the price! Highly recommend!
Review: Value workhorse of a keyboard - This is the third one of these I've had over a stretch of many years. Eventually the letters wear out and they get dirty, though the keyboards still work. I finally got this because at the price (less than $20!) it's the computer equivalent of having that "new car smell". Since I didn't get the combo with the wireless mouse, I have to use two USB receivers, but since I have a USB extension for outboard drives that had available slots, it wasn't a problem to use this with my old mouse.

## Questions & Answers

A: Nothing really beyond wireless and one button to open calculator and volume controls.

**Q: Cómo se activa el teclado inalámbrico después de insertar el transceiver?**
A: Se activa automáticamente, no hay que tomar ninguna acción. Gracias

**Q: Does it have an off switch?**
A: No, it does not.  However, I don'keep mine connected all the time.  It may turn off when you turn off the computer.

**Q: Anyone else have an issue with keyboard lag lately for this one? I started seeing 1-2 sec delays about a month ago**
A: That's a computer speed problem, not a keyboard problem.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great keyboard and decent price!
*by L***7 on August 2, 2023*

This is my second time purchasing this keyboard. It works well and is well worth the price! Highly recommend!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Value workhorse of a keyboard
*by J***R on June 26, 2021*

This is the third one of these I've had over a stretch of many years. Eventually the letters wear out and they get dirty, though the keyboards still work. I finally got this because at the price (less than $20!) it's the computer equivalent of having that "new car smell". Since I didn't get the combo with the wireless mouse, I have to use two USB receivers, but since I have a USB extension for outboard drives that had available slots, it wasn't a problem to use this with my old mouse.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cost effective and well-functioning, except for the transmission range
*by P***N on June 17, 2020*

update: Even though the keyboard is less than 12 feet from the computer, I have poor connectivity and must raise the keyboard above the comforter and point it within like a 65 degree arc of the computer for it to actually receive the keystrokes. Aside from that, I'm good, as described below: I'm a pretty fast typist. (~80 wpm) and I translate japanese light novels while lying in bed. I need a keyboard that's efficient, sturdy, has an intuitive key layout, and is physically stable while resting on a blanketed lap. Additionally, I want a keyboard that use a user-replaceable battery, because failed proprietary batteries make the device itself fail, and product failure due to passage of time is unacceptable. Compared to my last wireless keyboard, this one is lighter while being comparably rigid, and the key action registration effort is FAR more consistent and efficient than my last. Additionally, keystrokes are registered on the screen without any lag or missed keys. With such a great price and no issues with performance, this easily scores 5 stars. My biggest criticism is that I wish the backspace key were larger. It's not as horribly small as that of a lot of laptops, but not as easy to strike as the ergonomic keyboard which sits at the desktop computer.
