Review: This keyboard synced quickly and easily with my iMac and as far as I can tell all the keys function as designed. I don't use many of the designated 'short-cut' keys at the top, but the following 'short-cut' keys do work: volume works for all programs so far, and play/pause, previous track and next track keys work with my Spotify App installed on this computer. Those particular 'short-cut' keys are in the same place as the previous Apple keyboard, just not spaced the same. A simple getting used to it issue. Two other 'short-cut' keys: the screen minimize and magnify (which were not on my Apple keyboard) also work. I do miss the smaller size of the wired Apple keyboard I had, but I'm perfectly happy with this one for 1/2 the price of replacing with another Apple. (see attached pictures) It's actually about the same physical length but it is wider, and the key spacing is very different. As with most keyboard changes (work vs. home, laptops, etc) it'll just take a little use and my fingers will automatically find where they need to be. Someone mentioned the Delete and Home key were reversed on this keyboard (the keys in-between the keypad and the number pad) - and I never use the home key, but the Delete key IS usually on the bottom - with this one it's on the top. I never thought about the placement until I hit the home key expecting it to delete. Yes, that is seriously the hardest adjustment to make — and not a big deal, but since I saw it mentioned I thought I'd confirm it. And also to that point - the home key does work, since I do still accidentally hit it and then get confused when my curser takes me to the beginning of the page instead of deleting…. Unfortunately the keys are not nearly as quiet as the Apple, but they are more quiet and easier to type with (as in needing little pressure to type) than my dell keyboard or my laptop keyboard. I didn't deduct a star for this as this is not an issue for me — IF you are looking for that whisper quiet that comes with the Apple brand keyboard, than I would say this is only a 4 Star keyboard, but hey, it's also 1/2 the price. The two USB ports on the keyboard, on the backside, are very convenient for plugging in my phone to charge and/or connect to my computer. Well worth the few extra dollars over the same keyboard without the USB ports. It's thicker than the Apple, but it is as light if not lighter. Although it really just sits on my desk. I don't carry it around the house (it's wired) and I don't exercise with it so I'm not sure why people care, but there ya go. Pros: This is a fully functional, nice looking (I got it in white) keyboard that synced perfectly with my Apple iMac in about 5 seconds. Easy to use, quieter than most keyboards, has 2 very helpful USB ports right on the back of the keyboard (right behind the MACALLY logo on the top right of the keyboard), there is a number lock/caps lock/short cut key light to let you know if those functions are locked on the keyboard, it has 'short-cut' keys I didn't realize were so handy until I got this keyboard and it is 1/2 the price of the wired Apple version. Cons: You will have a little finger memory adjustment to the different key spacing, which you will have with any keyboard unless you replace your current keyboard with the exact same one you have now. No, it is not the 'whisper' quiet of the Apple. It doesn't have backlit keys, but I honestly can't remember if the Apple had it either since I work with the lights on.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I plug this into an iPad Air to use as my keyboard?**
A: Thanks for your question. Sorry, this keyboard will not plug into an iPad Air.  This keyboard has a USB connector and your iPad Air is equipped with a Lightning connector.  Would you consider a wireless Macally keyboard?  We do have the SLIMBTKEYC that will work with your iPad Air.  This keyboard  is the same size & layout as the SLIM USB Wired Small Compact Mini Keyboard, however it features wireless Bluetooth connectivity and a slide out stand for your iPad Air.

**Q: I currently have os x 10.11 installed, will this keyboard still work with that os ?**
A: Yes, it will.

**Q: Can I connect it with my phone?**
A: No.

**Q: Is there any way to turn off the bright blue power light on the keyboard?**
A: Not from what I have seen besides putting your computer to sleep or turning off completely.
