I tried the Macally full size USB keyboard I had for my Mac Mini but it was too cumbersome, the key travel is too long and it lacked backlighting. The SATECHI is compact and the key travel is very close to the same as the MacBook Pro and the backlighting works well. I purchase the SATECHI mouse at the same time. The mouse connector is quite a bit longer than the keyboard connector and doesn't fit as snuggly in the port. (see image) The mouse works OK but I prefer the feel and responsiveness of my Microsoft mini laser mouse. The cables for both the mouse and keyboard are pretty stiff which means they don't lay flat and look a messy on the desk. Review: BETTER THAN EXPECTED - I felt compelled to write a review because of the lower than deserved overall rating of this Keyboard. My Mac Pro's original keyboard's space-bar key finally gave out after 12 years of use, so at first I bought an exact generic duplicate of it (with all those extra keys on the right.) After I noticed that the replacement keyboard's keys were not nearly as quiet as the Mac original, and my wife already said that I typed too loud on the much quieter one, and not wanting to spend $100+ dollars on an "official" Mac keyboard, I returned the second keyboard last week and got this one instead, without all those extra keys on the right that I never used anyway. First of all, this Keyboard is definitely just as quite as a Mac Keyboard. Secondly, not having those unused, and unnecessary additional keys on the right gives me a lot more space for my Mouse. Thirdly, White-On-Black Keys (instead of the traditional Black-On White keys) are already much easier to see. Adding backlighting to this only makes it better. Fourthly, having it wired is much better too, as otherwise it would have to be charged every 10 days, in addition to my wireless mouse, which only needs to be charged about every two months. It is true that the backlighting floods a bit around the keys, so if the designers are reading this, it would be perfect if the tiny LED lights behind each key were only shinning directly behind the lettering. (I just turn the brightness setting down by one.) Nevertheless, the 3.5 star rating is way too low. I would give it a 4.5 By the way, if you need a standard USB input, instead of the "USB-C" that the Keyboard comes with, this adapter works well ( https://www.desertcart.com/gp/product/B085VT1VJT ) . ## Features - Apple Optimized Design - Tailored for Apple users, the expertly crafted W1 compact wired keyboard has a QWERTY layout and operational MacOS function keys. Perfect for transforming your workstation - Plug-and-Play Connectivity - Enjoy hassle-free connectivity with the built-in USB C cable.

It was the perfect size for my desk space and worked perfectly with my MacBook Pro for the five months I've had it--until yesterday when the caps lock key light stopped working. The return window has expired on this $60.00 purchase, so I can't return it. I'd rate this 5 stars if not for this failure. EDIT: This is my bad for not noticing at the onset that this keyboard comes with a 1-year Manufacturer's Warranty. So, what happened was, after the manufacturer read my review here about the caps lock key light dying, they reached out to me and sent me a brand-new replacement because I was still within their 1-year warranty period! Because of this excellent customer service and item replacement, plus the fact that I like this keyboard so much, I am changing my rating on it from 2-stars to 5. ## Frequently Bought Together - Satechi Slim W1 Wired Backlit Keyboard – Illuminated Keys & USB C Connection – for MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iPad Pro, iMac and More - Satechi Aluminum C1 Wired USB C Mouse – Optical Computer Mouse – for M2/ M1 MacBook Pro/Air, M2/ M1 iPad Pro/Air, M2 Mac Mini, iMac M1 - Space Gray - Apple 2024 Mac mini Desktop Computer with M4 chip with 10‑core CPU and 10‑core GPU: Built for Apple Intelligence, 16GB Unified Memory, 256GB SSD Storage, Gigabit Ethernet.
