Reviews for Apple Wireless Keyboard - Spanish

I was looking for an external keyboard to improve ergonomics while using my MacBook Pro at my desk. I usually avoid wireless accessories because they are sometimes more trouble than they're worth, but this keyboard was tempting because I could also use it with an iPad or iPhone. I went ahead and ordered it, along with Apple's rechargeable AA batteries, and have been very happy with the decision.

At my desk, the keyboard has a similar feel to the very nice built-in keyboard on the MacBook Pro. It looks great, is easy to move around and clean under, and one less cable is a plus after all. The battery charge lasts several weeks and when the battery dies it takes less than a minute to rotate in a new pair of rechargeables.

But when I'm traveling the keyboard is really delightful. For many weekend trips I don't need my laptop, but I want to keep up with email. So I'll slip the ultra-thin keyboard in my overnight bag and pair it with my iPhone, which speeds up my email performance immensely.

The only detail I don't like about this keyboard is that if I take the MacBook Pro away from my desk to another part of the house, the Bluetooth connection fades in and out and keeps flashing Connected / Disconnected messages on my screen. I finally got into the habit of turning off the keyboard when I leave the desk -- by holding down the power button for a few seconds -- and that cleared it up. It would have been better if this were automated somehow or configurable on the computer.

But overall, I'm happy I tried this keyboard, and it's now an important part of my professional toolkit.

I really recommend this keyboard to people. I bought it yesterday and I love it. Many people complain about how they can't tell if it is off. To tell if it is off or not, just press the caps lock button before putting your device in standby mode. It will turn off when the deviuce stops using it. I hope this helps.

I got mines as a birthday gift October 2010, don't get me wrong it is great, fantastic battery life, works perfectly to this day however, there are two things that are wrong with it in my opinion:
1- The keys get dirty really fast (white keys).
2- It doesn't light-up like the original MacBook keyboard.
Consider something else.

This wireless keyboard that I purchased with my iMac, paired very easily with the new iPad 4 that I bought yesterday. It simply took seconds to connect and worked as expected.

After all these years, Apple still can't figure out how to make their wireless product, you know... WORK.

i've had this keyboard for over a year, and it's a constant headache to work with it. First, the battery use. While most keyboards I've used only need batteries changed about once every 6-12 months, this one needs batteries changed nearly once a month.

Second is the performance issue. It has issues connecting to a computer it's paired to. It might just lose connection to the computer, without any apparent reason (note - this is not happening with any other keyboard we've tried). If you want to pair it with another computer - it's pain in the neck to make it go into pairing mode. There is no clear way to put it into the pairing mode - you merely turn it on, and it goes into pairing mode if it's not paired with anything, automatically. The problem is if it is paired - good luck making it go into the pairing mode to pair it with another device.

At this point I have switched to the regular USB keyboard, as this keyboard is just causing too many issues.

I bought this keyboard because I own the mStand; and I must say, it is an excellent keyboard. The keyboard is lightweight, compact, and easy to move, it pairs very quickly with all of my Bluetooth devices, and it's compatibility with the Mac makes it a joy to use. Great job Apple!

I love this keyboard. I use it with both my Mac and IPad with retina display. With its built-in bluetooth technology, this keyboard is easy to pair with both of my Apple devices.

I saw the new Apple wireless keyboard at Radio Shack during my Christmas shopping, AND I had to replace my original IPad after I broke the screen. (Ugh, but not too ugh.) I decided to replace it with the new Retina IPad and joy of joys, I love it too! It helped to soothe the pain of breaking my old screen, to say the least. I couldn't, in conscious, also treat myself to a new keyboard so I told my sons that I wanted the keyboard as my gift for Christmas since all of the others that I had tried were just not working for me. I didn't like the feel of the others, the weight of the keys, some of them rubber which was a definite no. Sort of like playing a piano, you have to have the right feel or you just don't play well. Well, long story short, they didn't get it for me, so guess what?! I went shopping the day after Christmas and bought it for myself. Wow! I love it! It feels just like it should, and now I can type away without so many mistakes and so much frustration! There just isn't a comparison to this great product, and it was a snap setting it up. Thank you Apple! You have made my year!
