SATECHI Numeric Keypad - Space Grey

This says it is for Mac AND PC... but it seems PC is an afterthought. Technically it works, although it is a thoroughly frustrating experience. From the get go you will need to have familiarity with computers to use it pressing the "clear" in place of a number lock key to activate the number function of the keyboard (it is at no point usable as a clear button). Prior to pressing the clear button the keys will work in the functionality of a keyboard eg. 8 and 2 function as up and down arrow keys. strangely though 4 and 6 do not function as left, right arrow keys and do not do anything at all. 1,3,7 and 9 all function as a faster up/down key...view more This says it is for Mac AND PC... but it seems PC is an afterthought.

The last thing which makes this experience downright miserable is I need to re-add the device to bluetooth with each use. I cannot just locate the device in my paired device list and hit connect after turning it on, no, that would be too easy. Doing this will simply result in a failed bluetooth connection. I must put it in pairing mode and go through windows settings to add a bluetooth keyboard, EACH. AND. EVERY. TIME.

I'm sure this is fine on Apple devices, but as a windows user... never buy this!

Would return it but am afraid the attempt may be more effort than its worth given I didn't use it until after I threw the packaging away.

Excellent for portability - small slim with excellent battery life. Although there is a small delay once it goes into sleep mode, it still captures and outputs all the buttons pressed so it doesn't interrupt flow. Would be nicer if it could be paired to more than one PC though. Excellent for portability - small slim with excellent battery life.

The product is clunky, does not come with usb-c charging, only micro-b and the device is slow to wake up. The product is clunky, does not come with usb-c charging, only micro-b and the device is slow to wake up.

I use this with my MacBook to speed up number inputing. Really good numeric keypad. I use this with my MacBook to speed up number inputing. Really good numeric keypad.
