Reviews for Apple Wireless Keyboard - Japanese

This is a high quality and well designed device. The first thing to say about this keyboard is, it syncs up very easily and reliably to your desktop or iPad. It took me about 90 seconds to sync this keyboard, and that includes checking to see if there were batteries in the device. Ever since then, the device has continued to sync perfectly with no issues.

This keyboard is small and light, but feels sturdy and is not bendable. Though the keyboard is very small, the keys themselves are fairly large. The design of the keyboard is beautiful, and fans of apples current aluminum look will like it. The device always "Just works" and you dont have to turn it off an on between uses, though there is a small delay when the keyboard has been idle before the first input is received. This is to be expected and not a hassle. Great keyboard and at 69.99 not a bad deal either.

I have the very first iteration of this keyboard, if you don't spill on it or abuse it, it will last. Mine is several years old and works like new, the only complaint is the older ones don't have a Launchpad button, so since I upgraded my server to Lion I need to buy a new one.

Purchased in 2010 to accompany my magic mouse, this has been put through its paces for ver twenty months. Has worked great with both my iPad and 2009 MacBook aluminum model, and has made getting work done while traveling much easier. It's been pretty durable and survived a couple of spills in its time. Only issue is that after loosing the end cap accidentally once, it was hard to find a replacement anywhere other than online auction sites which took over a month.

I was so excited to get this keyboard and the wireless mouse! Unfortunately, after trying it out for a few days, my wrists were hurting. I am a home computer user, nothing too extensive - email, bills, and shopping. I had some repetitive injury to my wrists/tendons in the past (who doesn't have that these days?)

The area where the batteries are inserted tilts the keyboard up a little too high. My wrists were no longer in neutral, but they were in extension. Add typing while planting my wrists for stabilization, along with my tendonitis, and I was a sad camper knowing this keyboard wouldn't work for me.

I really wanted this keyboard.
I ended up getting the regular wired keyboard instead.

Basically, if you have some existing wrist/tendon/carpal tunnel pain, take this for a test drive first.

Excellent touch and easy pairing with my iPad. Has really helped me use my iPad as a business tool for note taking in meetings etc. Easy to carry too.

This keyboard installed flawlessly with my iMac and worked beautifully. However, it was very finicky when trying to get it to pair with the iPad. I finally got it to pair, but when I later went back to use it with the iPad several hours later, I had to go through the procedure of turning the keyboard on and off several times before it would work. In the end, I decided to return the keyboard since I mainly got it to work with the iPad, and in addition, since I do a fair amount of work in Microsoft Office in a Windows environment on the Mac, I missed the added keys (home, end, etc.) on the wide keyboard.

I have bought 3, YES THREE, of this product, and each time, one has failed me. The delete key breaks and stops working, the KB will go wacko and just unabatedly enter the same key without me touching a thing. And many others issues.

I BOUGHT THREE OF THESE

this must show it's a piece of junk. i like it's size and it's user-friendliness, and all the fancy aspects of it, but i have given up on it.

Awesome product. It is very easy to set up. Range is pretty good as well.

I recently purchased one of these for desktop-like uses for my Macbook. It functions very well. I can be 7 feet away from my charging macbook and still get good performance out of this keyboard. I have nothing to complain about. Battery consumption is relatively low based on how long I've had it. It was easy to adapt to since the only difference is that it isn't on my mac. One final thing is that it fits excellently on my keyboard tray allowing me to also put my magic mouse on the tray. Overall, its a very nice keyboard. I highly recommend it.
