Macally Backlit Wired Keyboard for Mac | Compatible Apple Keyboard (Small and Compact) Comfortable All Day Typing USB Keyboard for MacBook Pro/Air, iMac, Mac Mini/Pro (Space Grey)

Bought this because my Macbook'd keyboard became unusable (butterfly key problem). Plugged it in and it worked perfectly – no setup or config required. I appreciate it has the Mac layout instead of some of the other hybrid keyboards with Windows keys. I also like the subtle backlight on the keys – it's not overpowering, and mimics what I'd expect for Mac. The keys themselves are a bit too deep for my tastes, but I'll get used to that. The keys are relatively quiet, which I really appreciate (I hate 'clicky' keyboards). The space bar is a bit louder than the other keys, but that's okay. I also like that it's wired, since I don't have to worry about using disposable batteries, battery life or lag, like is often reported with other keyboards. It's nice and compact, without unnecessary borders, so it will be perfect for travel. I was confident in this purchase because I've bought other Macally peripherals in the past (a separate number pad and a usb hub) and they were excellent: high quality, reliable (both still work fine after many years), and were also effortless to use, with no weird drivers or unnecessary installers. I noticed other reviewers have mentioned that some keyboard shortcuts don't work for them, but mine doesn't have that problem at all. Perhaps Macally has updated the keyboard to fix those issues, or perhaps I lucked out and they got a defective product, I don't know – but my keyboard has been working just fine. I'm very happy with this purchase, and I highly recommend this keyboard. 5 Stars.

I'm using this keyboard with a mid-2010 MacBook Pro and it's everything I was hoping for. I love older computers. I grew up with them, I find nostalgia in their use makes me happy - I can also crack open a notebook case and change out an aging battery without needing an engineering degree and specialized tools. Plan on using it as a portal to the home server, but I wasn't exactly crazy about continually using the stock keyboard. "What if I could expose a different keyboard to cheeto dust and cookie crumbs instead?!" I thought to myself before embarking on the search for something which could take the brunt of my snacking abuses... MacAlly has been around for a long time, and this keyboard shows why. The keys are great with just enough give and "clickyness" I don't feel like I'm typing on a piece of cheap garbage. I've bought other keyboards, full size, RGB lit, bells and whistles thrown about in the descriptions - they don't feel as nice to use as this little gem. The keys have a slight indent which looks and feels proper, like someone took the time to design this nicely. The whole unit feels solid. It doesn't creak or flex, has good rubber feet underneath, and the color matches well enough with the silvery-aluminum and black keys of the MacBook Pro. It's just about the same size as the keyboard on the MacBook Pro too, funny enough. Illumination is well done with three choices of brightness and access to keyboard functions is pretty simple. A couple of key presses and you can adjust brightness of your computer display or volume as example. The keyboard as a Mac-centric product works VERY well in the Apple OS X environment. I've used it in Snow Leopard, Yosemite and High Sierra versions. I'm assuming it'll work just as well from Mojave through to Sonoma OS versions, but I just haven't felt the need to buy a new Apple product since 2016 so I couldn't reliably verify. Anyhow - Yes, I feel this is VERY well done keyboard. I would recommend it to anyone looking to either replace a stock Mac keyboard with a more petite version that gives you backlit illumination as a perk, or as a sacrificial stalwart against exposing your notebook's keyboard to the grime of life and crumbly bits of regretful late night nibbling. Highly recommended. The Price Point at $40 bucks as bought I find fair considering it works, works well, and seems like it's well built enough I'd expect it to keep working for some time.

Excellent solution for people with low vision. Nicely backlit. Keys feel very nice. Even better than the flat keys on the original MAC keyboard. Layout the same as MAC. Could not be happier with this product.

Wow. I was actually very impressed by this. I had a Macally keyboard that is not backlit, so I bought this one as an upgrade. I honestly do not like my old Macally keyboard that much -- the keys on it are very dead. I use it solely because it has a "laptop-style" key layout (four keys to the left of the spacebar) rather than an ANSI key layout (three keys to the left of the spacebar). That way, I only have to develop muscle memory for one keyboard style. I was expecting another "dead" keyboard -- just backlit this time. However, I was surprised when the keys had a bit of push to them -- it was a much better typing experience. It is not like typing on a high-end mechanical or anything like that, but it is still a very good, much improved typing experience. Given the price, I thought the keyboard was outstanding. If you're used to using a high end mechanical keyboard, this keyboard will be disappointing. But, for the rest of us, if you're looking for a low-cost, backlit keyboard with no number pad and a "laptop style" key layout, you'll be happy. And, even for those who are used to mechanical keyboards, if you're looking for a cheap keyboard to take to public events or when traveling, this *might* be an acceptable option. The keyboard is designed for Mac users, and the key layout is the same as the keyboard on recent model Macbook Pros, except that the function keys are half-sized (as shown in the product photo). There are Mac-style icons on the function keys if you find those useful.

Best options for MAC. Thank you +++

Gorgeous keyboard, compact and high quality

Nach mehreren Monaten der Nutzung kann ich sagen, dass diese Tastatur meine Erwartungen voll erfüllt hat! Die Tasten sind sehr angenehm zu drücken, sie haben einen kleinen Hub, mehr als das MacBook pro, und es stellte sich heraus, sehr komfortabel zu sein! Die Hintergrundbeleuchtung der Tastatur ist sehr hilfreich in den Abendstunden. Infolgedessen hat sich meine Frau in diese Tastatur verliebt, hat sie für sich selbst genommen und mir ihre alte geschenkt :D

Pequeño. Hermoso y perfecto.
