This is a very good keyboard but it has room for improvement in my opinion. The biggest downside is no dedicated editing (Home/End/PgUp/PgDn) keys. This is essentially laid out correctly and exactly like a typical laptop keyboard, which is mostly a great thing. I have used lots of keyboards over the years and here's how this one lines up with my preferences:* The Ctrl/Fn/Start/Alt keys are in the correct (same) location and order as on most laptops I've used.* The keys are normal laptop size, perfectly flat, and matte black. I prefer them to be slightly concave with a bit more of a nub on the F and J keys. If they were a bit more glossy, they wouldn't show fingerprints as much or so quickly.* The backlight has 3 brightness levels and can be turned off. They use 3 separate Fn combos to control it.* The touchpad (recessed) works well and is tiny by 2025 standards but I'm ok with that. A larger one would make for a larger footprint.* The size is perfect for a compact keyboard with a touchpad although it is surprisingly thicker (1.25") than an entire closed laptop. It's acceptable for my use case but I wish they could have made it thinner.* It is angled and has flip feet for a steeper slope. There are rubber pads that work for both angles.* The location of the 2 USB A ports (lower left side) is not really ideal. I would probably put them on the top facing away but this location is probably better for plugging in flash drives although the USB 2.0 will limit their transfer speed.Squeezing in a pod of the Insert/Home/PgUp/Del/End/PgDn keys in the top right corner would be great. Alternatively, putting them along the right side like some laptops or adding PgUp and PgDn keys above the left/right arrows would be a moderate improvement.I've often wondered why nobody has basically taken a laptop keyboard and built an enclosure for it, especially when older laptops had ones that could be popped out semi-easily. If you're looking to save 10 dollars, you can get the Periboard-525 which is the same keyboard without backlighting.

The keys work great, it has a nice touchpad, long cord, lightweight and is basically like a laptop keyboard replacement. So it's super useful for different devices. I will critique that it's a bit loud with the clicks and the DPI is lowish, so if you hook up to a raspberry pi or steam deck where you can't really change the DPI, the mouse may feel a bit slow. But works great and has 2 USB-A buses on the side for other accessories.

I needed a keyboard for an autogage iin a robot machining cell and I didn't want a conventional keyboard. This one stores in less space and has all of the functions that I needed, plus it has 2 additional usb ports. Love it!

Keyboard has a nice feel, but the trackpad almost doesn't work with 2 finger scrolling. Also, keyboard's too thick. To get thay real laptop feel (to help people who need ergonomic setup), its not great.

No touchpad command instructions and default touchpad driver settings use only...The touchpad works but you better know somehow what the default commands are because there are absolutely no instructions for the touchpad.And there is no way to update any of the touchpad usage (no driver).I had touchpad command instructions from another similar keyboard that worked for this keyboard - but otherwise I would not have known.

The keyboard part is solid and it functions.The touchpad, however, reports to Windows as an ordinary mouse, and Windows uses the standard USB mouse drivers. Meaning that there is no way to disable things like "tap to click" and the other gesture features. The manufacturer also offers no drivers at all for any of their touchpad keyboards, meaning (as far as I can tell) there's no way to override the default behavior.It functions ok if all you need is to browse the Internet.However, I am I laptop gamer, used to playing games with a touchpad. I bought this hoping it would be useful for playing my games with my laptop plugged into a monitor, without having to find a tv tray that fits into the awkward space I have, and without having to relearn how to play things with a regular mouse. Unfortunately, the gesture features are extremely sensitive and not being able to disable them is a bit maddening.For the price of this thing, they could at least offer some basic drivers that let you disable gestures. But if all you need is a keyboard most of the time and only occasionally using the touchpad to click links, it'll get the job done

For my use, this is the perfect combination of small footprint, responsive keys, and quality trackpad.
