Rii (Newest Version) K12+ Mini Wireless Keyboard with Touchpad Mouse, Stainless Steel Portable Wireless Keyboard with USB Receiver for MacBook/iPad/Tablet/PC/Laptop/Smart TV/Raspberry Pi - Black

I find the package size acceptable. For many the keys may be too small, but they are a very good compromise for the purpose of easy portability and size control. The key excursion is adequate and the trackpad is mostly good.I am less thrilled with the sensitivity of the track pad, which could perhaps be improved if it were a bit less prone to any passage over it. For those with hands a bit larger, the track pad registers too easily any perceived light pressure or even perhaps some static electricity from the right hand such that the cursor moves about in a typing field creating errors in any text being created during the device's use. The unintended manipulation of the cursor degrades the text with errors of patched areas of text where they are not intended.If this is seen to happen, it is a problem which can be addressed. For the purpose of any periods of text production of more than a word it may be well to hit FCN + L Click to disengage the trackpad. Once done the same combination can reengage the trackpad. Text creation is then a bit less problematic.Without such a precaution -at least in my case- a good deal of time is wasted fixing errors created of the text desired to be entered into the computing device.Beyond that, I have no issues with the device which works well.

Battery life is good. Not for serious typing imo. My right hand accidentally touches the mouse-pad when typing. This moves the cursor every time when typing which is pretty annoying. This keyboard might be too small for me. Also, one of the rubber boots on the bottom of the keyboard fell off already. I like the look and quality. It worked on my lg phone, ps4, samsung tv, and lenovo tablet. It also becomes unresponsive if your not using it for a while(This could mean low battery though). Pressing the ESC button seems to wake it up. Nonetheless, good buy for the money.

As an htpc keyboard this is a great product. The build quality is very good, keys are reasonably clicky, the touchpad is much more precise than I expected at this price point. A con or a pro depending on how you look at it is how small the keyboard is. As someone with large hands it's next to impossible to type on normally. I've found that using two fingers on each hand is easiest for me. That being said the small size means it's easier to tuck away in your living room. The keyboard layout is also a bit strange but for typing out a quick search or the like it's perfectly acceptable.

For some reason, when I plug it in, it stops charging after a few seconds. I'm assuming I have a defective one because, otherwise, it's a great little keyboard and trackpad. However, this issue is kind of a deal breaker. So take from it what you will.It works great (when it's working), but the fact that it stops charging within a few seconds of me plugging it in means that I'll have to return it. It doesn't seem like many others who've reviewed it have had this issue, but just a heads up either way.

So I've attached a picture to give you some scale, when they say small form factor they mean it. But like Rii's previous offerings their unique keyboard layout gives you so much extra functionality with the mouse and buttons that ones you get used to the size (like in my case your hands shrink so no I'm not completely used to it yet lol) you'll be flying along. I use mine in conjunction with a Raspberry Pi 5 Cyberdeck I built and for that kind of application honestly I cannot think of a better solution. Although I did add a small joystick 🕹️ mouse pointer (with a Seeed Studio RP2040 microcontroller) not that there's anything wrong with the Rii, the joystick on my cyberdeck just looks awesome : )P_R_O_SWEIGHS NOTHINGSIZE W/ MOUSE CANT BE BEATEN+KEYS FOR MOUSE FUNCTIONSPRICEC_O_N_SLACKS BACKLIGHT

On paper, this thing may seem great--good build quality, probably good battery life, but when you actually try to type with it, it's the worst keyboard I've ever used, and any notion of "great" from this thing quickly evaporates.I use my right thumb to hit space, and on this, the spacebar is slightly to the left of where my brain thinks it is, and so just trying to type simple linux commands like "sudo vi..." and "ls -a" quickly becomes a chore. Instead of a normal keyboard where Space is strategically placed directly in the middle, my right thumb rests on the "AltGr" key of this thing, whatever the Gr part means...You simply have to look at the bottom-left and bottom-right portions of the keyboard to understand why this thing is bad. There are touch points for left & right mouse button on the touch pad, but on the left-hand side, there is a set of keys for them where the control key should be. I can only assume they meant to accomodate for left-handed people somehow, but that theory doesn't hold water because the touchpad is always on the right anyway, so why would it make sense to use those left-hand keys to begin with?Next, look at where the function key is. Now look at the F keys at the top. Like with bad "high-end" laptops, the media keys are the default, while the function keys require you to hold down that tiny, oddly placed Fn key. But the fun does not stop there! You also have to do that for Insert & Del. Insert, I can understand, because nobody uses Insert, but Del! Oh hell no.Left Ctrl, Cmd & Alt are about as well placed as they could be, given the circumstances. On a normal keyboard however, they would be larger than the alpha keys, but on this special little Rii, they are smaller. Smaller than my pinky in fact.The right side of the keyboard is where the real fun starts. One could write a book about the right side of this thing, about how the + & - keys were forgotten during the design phase of this thing, so they were appropriated crammed next to the all important AltGr key and the arrow keys. One could write about the littlest shift key, placed between the arrow keys where it could be hid away from the world. One could talk about the quotation mark & apostrophe key, how it too was forgotten, and left for dead in the bottom row like an ugly duckling. Then we get to the fact that resting your hands on the home row of this thing places your right pinky somewhere between the ; and the enter key, and adding a period requires ones to reach their pinkey inward below the L, like a game of twister.That brings me back to the AltGr key. I hate the AltGr key. It's not like they bothered to add a CtrlGr, because that would have made too much sense, as the two Gr keys could have frolicked along the bottom row like a lovely couple in a field on a warm spring day. Instead, the AltGr key sits bitterly alone, and constantly gets mistaken for Space, thus I can't help but hate it. It's a useless key, on a useless keyboard meant for small children or adults with tiny hands. You know the one. 1 out of 5 stars.
