| Reviewing the Anker Ultra Slim Bluetooth Keyboard |
Anker Ultra Slim Bluetooth Keyboard
This Ultra Slim Bluetooth Keyboard is small enough to be easily taken where I need it and sturdy enough to feel as though I'm typing on my laptop. It does not feel like those rubber mat keyboards I've tried in the stores - and I like that.
Miscellaneous Information:
- measures only 11.2" x 4.8" x 0.7"
- requires easy-to-find AAA batteries
- the battery housing doubles as a raised edge - tilting the keyboard slightly and making it easier to use.
- the on/off switch and the bluetooth connection was easy enough that even I could figure it all out
I'm still having trouble becoming accustomed to all of the Ipad's bells and whistles, but not having to "tap" everything out one letter at a time on the screen is no longer a barrier. Whether I use the keyboard on a table top or on my lap, it is comfortable. And this Ipad and Keyboard combination is easier to pack and take along to The Shack than my laptop.
Oh Dawn, I think you may just have hit on the one thing I really need. I have an Ipad and find it very difficult to use when doing any kind of word processing. This keyboard sounds like a winner and it is so inexpensive too! Thank you for solving a problem for me.
ReplyDeleteIf I ever get an Ipad, having a keyboard would be an absolute must as I am a touch-typist and find it very difficult to do the one or two-finger, one letter at a time kind of typing many use with Ipads and similar devices. Thanks for this keyboard review, Dawn Rae.
ReplyDeleteThere is a period of adjustment :) , but sure does increase the typing speed from a tablet !
ReplyDeleteI think I got my ipad about a year ago now. My daughter said that I would need a wireless keyboard and she sent me the information on the one she uses. I couldn't easily use my Ipad without it! I just looked and don't see a brand name on the keyboard, but mine doesn't feel like plastic keys either. It may well be an Anker and they do make using the Ipad a whole lot easier for sure.
ReplyDeleteThat's handy to have on hand. Absolutely have to agree about not using and ipad because of the keyboard. Without a normal sized board it's certainly not for working. This is a good solution. We've had an ultra thin board before, they're pretty cool.
ReplyDeleteI'm using a Zagg keyboard I got to go with a tablet. The tablet never worked but the keyboard is great when it actually decides to connect. It makes a real difference in how much I can get done on my phone. But it disconnects more often than I'd like and it's a pain to reconnect. Maybe I should try this one -- if it will work with my Android phone.
