Universal Backlit 7-Colors Bluetooth Touch TV Keyboard with Easy Media Control and Build-in Touchpad for TV-Connected Computer, Smart TV, Desktop, Laptop, iPad, Surface, Tablet, HTPC

I have had two otehr simoilar ARTEK keyboards, but neither of them were as NICE as this one. The first one I had, wouldn't connect to my desktop, and the company graciously replaced it right away. No complaint at all with the company! They are great! The second one had been working out fine, but was not backlit, and that is kind of a must for me, since I do a lot of writing in bed, Even though I am a writer, I humbly have to admit...I never learned to type without having to look at the keyboard. And if it's the middle of the night, I really don't want to have overhead or even desk top lamps on. I am notorious for eating and drinking at my desk, I am at it most of the day and a lot of nights. SO, yeah, it happened. I spilled a full glass of soda right onto my desk, and it tidalwaved directly onto my keyboard as if it were targeted. I'm not a gamer, but if it had BEEN a game, I won. Or lost, I'm not sure how that would score. But, here's the crazy part...IT STILL WORKS, even after I ran it under cool water for a couple minutes! But I can't imagine that will last long, so I ordered this one. It is VERY nice! I love the keys strokes, the backlight is quite subtle (I do hope it doesn't dim as it ages, or it won't get through the keys) and the touchpad is wonderfully responsive. I seem to have a negative affect on electronics, they often malfunction right out of the box, and can't wear electric watches. SO it's always a suspence when trying new things, because somethines, they just don't work for me. But THIS, I LOVE THIS KEYBOARD. It feels good, it is also weighted and doesn't slide around on the desktop. The screen is spacious, and immediately responsive. I think it likes me. I looked at keyboards in all price ranges, and to honest, I don't understand how one can be this range, while another, with the same feature, can be almost $200. Maybe those are for people with much better skills than mine, but this feels as nice, or nicer than the $179 Logitech I had, that didn't work for me. This one seems to be somewhat wider as well, and I like that. I'm not one of those people who thirst for smaller and smaller devices. I'm still waiting for the phones with 23 inch screens to come out. Buy this keyboard! Better yet, buy a brand new one of your own, I'm keeping this one!

Like most folks, I've used multiple of keyboards in my life. Of the various keyboards I've owned, I've generally had a high regard for Logitech keyboards. Unfortunately, I could not find any good option from them when it comes to a bluetooth keyboard with a trackpad. The Arteck keyboard had decent reviews so thought I'll give it a try. My use case -- I wanted a portable keyboard+trackpad option for my Steam Deck. I don't currently own a laptop (have a mac and a PC desktop), and so figured I'll use my steam deck with a portable monitor and a bluetooth keyboard. I've used it for about a month now, and I am very impressed. This keyboard has honestly surpassed my expectations. I expected it to be a generic cheap product with bad build quality. In fact, it turned out that is one aspect I'm the most impressed by. After having using it for a month, I'm honestly surprised how good the build quality is. All keys have a good amount of travel. It's comfortable typing on this keyboard (as well as can be expected on a keyboard this size). Like I said, I've been using it with my Steam Deck, and it works just as expected. I didn't have to install any drivers. Steam OS connected to it just fine. And it works just as well in Desktop mode and in Gaming mode. The keyboard goes to sleep as expected, and if I return at any time and press any key it immediately wakes up the steam deck. The back lights are good enough. The trackpad works well. I can tap to click. Two finger scrolling works very well, and swiping down with three fingers shows the desktop. The trackpad buttons are of excellent quality as well. I've had no issues with the battery as well. I just put it on charge maybe once a week. Not sure how long it'll last if I don't but it seems good enough. I know i'm giving it an exceptionally glowing review, but I feel this product does deserve it. At this price I wasn't expecting anything nearly as good. Edit: 1+ yr update. The keyboard is still working just as expected. Absolutely no complaints thus far. One thing I noticed on the Steam Deck -- the trackpad gets identified as a 'mouse' in Linux Desktop, instead of a trackpad. That means to change pointer speed, scroll direction etc. you have to go to mouse settings instead of trackpad settings. Linux says 'No trackpad detected'. That had confused me at first. But the mouse settings do all I want, so no issues. But that does mean there is no way to turn off 'tap to click' in Linux (at least none that I could find). But I like to leave it ON anyway, so not a problem for me. One (very) minor gripe is that the manual is not available on the Amazon page, nor on the manufacturer's website. If you forget the instructions, having a manual is handy. Luckily a google search brought up PDF manual easily on one of the generic manual websites. I would suggest you download it and keep it for reference. I've pasted basic instructions using a label-maker on the back (I tend to forget the keys for changing colors, brightness etc.)

I have a Mac connected to my TV and wanted a keyboard with a trackpad so I don't need to fumble with a mouse. This keyboard/trackpad works very well for this. Connected with no problem. There are key combinations you hit to change the backlight brightness and color. It's not too big, even with the trackpad. It's got a bit of heft to it because of the battery but it's got a nice, durable feeling to it. Battery life has been just fine. It's not miraculous but I don't find myself saying "It's dead again?!" I did take off one star only because I do a lot of keyboard shortcuts and I feel like presses on the modifier keys (command, option, etc) don't register as well as they could. Overall a pretty solid choice for the price.

Update 6-21-25 I ordered another one of these keyboards as it stopped taking a charge, which I honestly believe is my own fault as I had plugged it into a 100w usb-c PD charger a few times and I think I may have unintentionally damaged it myself. Now these do have a 2 year warranty which it was still under and I'm sure they would have replaced it under that warranty, but my previous positive experience with them replacing it and the amount of daily use it has undergone and performed flawlessly for the pat 2 years, I had no issues purchasing it again, as like I said, I think I'm the one who broke it. I would say that these are built rock solid and very high quality. They keys feel good and the trackpad works flawlessly. This is the only brand I will buy because I know It is well built and will last. As I stated earlier, I have used this daily for almost 2 years without any issues at all. 100 percent recommended. 2-7-24 Update I have to upgrade Artech to 6 stars due to their customer service. I had a key come off from the lower mouse , which is no big deal as you can usually just pop them back on. In this case , one of the tabs on the rear of the key were broken and It would not reattach and stay on the keyboard. I reached out to the seller to see If I could just buy or get just a replacement key to reattach to the keyboard and they offered to send me a complete replacement, which they didn't have to do. They answered promptly and shipped one out within days. My original review still stands on the quality build and overall best BT keyboard I have bought. I just wanted to update that their customer service is just as good as their products and it was appreciated. 6 stars for Artech. I currently have a Fintie brand BT keyboard which is fine but wanted something wider to fit better on my lap as that is where I use it mostly. I needed a touchpad which seems to be kind of hard to find on BT keyboards. Decided to go with this one as there wasn't much else to choose from and the price point was fair. I was actually quite suprised on the build quality of the keyboard. It is solid and all the keys have a nice feel to them. Bluetooth setup was quick and easy and it fits in my lap perfectly. The touchpad works great also. I really wasn't expecting much from a keyboard at this price but it really blew away my expectations. It's a nice quality , solid built keyboard and I'm glad I went ahead and purchased it. I'd recommend it personally If your looking for a BT keyboard with touchpad.

This is such an intriguing product. It's both the best wireless HTPC keyboard I've ever used, and the source of so much frustration and annoyance that I constantly want to snap it in half. So I've settled on 3 stars because while it has a lot of good, there's a lot of just plain stupid to go along with it. Here are the things I like: - Quick pairing, quick re-connect, and general connection stability - USB-C (It's current year, Micro USB needs to GO) - It's backlit with an excellent legend, including backlit function/alternate labels unlike most keyboards with only one set backlit and the other printed. - It has a decent trackpad, which is both accurate and responsive (when it works) and the trackpad buttons are perfect (they're just keyboard keys rather than flimsy, barely tactile microswitches as you'd commonly see. - All keys work the way you'd expect them to, no important printable characters are hidden behind function keys like other compact keyboards sometimes do What I absolutely despise: - Battery: Not only does this have a shorter battery life than I'd expect (sometimes going full to needing a charge in only a single day of usage), it also charges at a glacially slow pace. There have been circumstances where I've charged the device overnight, with it powered off, and over eight hours later it's still reporting only 75% SoC. What is this thing powered by? Ni-Cd batteries from the last millennium? The worlds cheapest low-current 18650s? Who knows! But man does this annoy the crap out of me. - Firmware: There are more quirks to gripe about here than I thought possible. It has unreliable wake behavior using the trackpad - sometimes it wakes with trackpad use or button, most often it requires a keypress first. In order to modifier-click anything, you must hold the modifier key down, wait approximately a second, then click; anything quicker will miss the modifier key altogether. The device sometimes develops "lag" and double-printing when plugged into a charger (note: not connected via USB to a computer). The device has inconsistent wake behavior - pressing a single key usually (although not always) results in that key being captured as part of the wake and printed; more keys will often result in the entire string typed before wake is complete being lost. - The size of the modifier keys. You can tell this was designed by a Mac user because the only key given the time of day was the command key (aka the Alt key for those of us using real operating systems 🤣). Left Ctrl is workable because it's at the very corner of the keyboard but I find the Windows key especially, along with Fn and right Ctrl, to be difficult to use reliably. - No tenkey function keys. It's niche, but sometimes I'm playing games that specifically want me to press numpad numbers rather than number-row keys. This keyboard offers no way I've been able to find to do so. There are so many options they could have used. I've seen other devices overlay this onto the trackpad as "soft buttons" which would have been really slick here. But even Fn+key shortcuts would have been acceptable. - Function-first keys: The top row (F1-12) are shortcut-first, primary function second. My complaint isn't necessarily that it's set this way, it's that it can't be toggled in any useful fashion (except the Function Lock button which is not persistent in any meaningful way). - Lights: The backlight stays on too long after typing. Sixty full seconds the backlight stays on after the last keypress. And we wonder why it has abysmal battery life. But beyond that: The green LEDs are atrociously bright Caps Lock stays always on at full brightness even when the device is asleep, the device blinks green to indicate a low battery (what?), and there is no configurable backlight brightness. - Power switch: The majority of this device feels well made. The power switch, prominently located on the front of the device in the top right corner, feels cheap and flimsy. It is loose and travels almost the full length from off to on within a single position, making the switching itself feel flimsy and uncertain. There have been times where I've had to check if I turned the device off by turning it on, because the position of the switch at rest was ambiguous.

Update #2: I found the product support address, and after contacting them about the problem, they responded quickly with the simple fix. It's working good as new. I am going to stand my an early recommendation to affix a sticker to the bottom that has the various key combinations that change the settings. Many are not intuitively obvious, and the list is in the instructions, a small pamphlet that is easily misplaced. Allowing for pretty minor issues I'd call bugs, it is a very good product in general. If they are engineering the chips for this product, things like the track pad shutting off when the backlights do (requiring a keyboard key press) is an easy product-improvement cycle fix. Update #1: In general I was enjoying this keyboard, but it appears to have died after the 30-day Amazon return window. I'm not sure what the warranty is on this, but I see similar ARTECK products that have a 24 month warranty. This one died with the same symptoms that other reviewers also report: the charging LED glows red only. If you turn it off and back on, it lights up for a moment then cycles off, suggesting that the battery leads have come unhooked and it will not change the battery. The question I have now is how to reach the Arteck people to discuss this warranty issue with? In the 45 days I have used it, the only issue that was annoying was how quickly the backlighting turned off, and associated with that was that it also seemed to turn off the trackpad, something that did not revert by using the trackpad or trackpad keys. One must click on the keyboard and wait for the light to go back on, then you can use the trackpad. I know bigger batteries are expensive, but the extra couple of bucks will just not hurt much and will help keep customers buying more, and you will not have to cut the backlight sleep times to almost nothing. Initial review: I liked my first Arteck keyboard enough that I’ve purchased 2 a second one. They are well made and a good value. You can tell the company takes pride in what they do. Quiet keyboards, dependable, and with surprising functionality. I hope you come out with a keyboard that combines all the best features: backlighting, a track pad and the ability to make three simultaneous wireless connections. I need that. Oh, also on my wish list: print the function key legend on the back of the keyboard. A cool feature like adjusting the backlight color can’t help me if I forget how to do it.

Update 10/24: Still going strong. Charge still lasts a couple of weeks of daily usage, sometimes very heavy usage, and always with backlight enabled. Have only had two instances where it lost pairing (died) and had to be re-paired with the PC. Still 5 stars! Update: It's been a few months and everything is working much better now. I did upgrade my PC's wifi/bluetooth and don't have any range/interference issues any longer, so those related issues aren't the keyboard's fault. Overall this keyboard is much better than any of the Logitech keyboards I've used for the same purpose, including the K480 Bluetooth keyboard. The Arteck keys are much nicer than the any of the Logitech keys, and it's way less bulky. Charge time is slow but the battery lasts a long time, so that's not really a negative. Changing my rating to 5 stars. ----------------------------------------------------------- I have been using this keyboard for a few weeks now, and do like it overall, but there are a few issues I have with it. It has even become completely unresponsive to the point I thought it had died, but I managed to fix it and am using it now as I type this review. Battery life overall has been very good, lasting several weeks so far with about 15 hours of use per week. * Keyboard sleeps too soon at times. Not sure why it does this, but it has stopped accepting input while I was typing a few times which is very irritating. I believe this is a range/interference issue, so be sure to stay within 15ft of the connected device. I use it at the edge of this range, and experience this occasionally. * Touchpad becomes very laggy at times. Same as above, this seems to be a range/interference issue. * Touchpad stops emulating mouse clicks when tapping the touchpad. Press 'Fn + Right Option' keys to re-enable the behavior. * Becomes completely unresponsive (dies) for no reason that one can immediately discern. The keyboard just stops working completely. Powering it off and back on would light the backlight for ~3 seconds and nothing else. No amount of power-cycling or key pressing would revive it. I was very frustrated with it and had resigned to having to request warranty replacement, but gave it one last try today. I pressed 'Fn + C' to try re-pairing to the PC, and it lit up! It turns out it had simply lost pairing with my PC! Be sure to do this if yours suddenly becomes unresponsive (including "dead" battery). If you can tolerate these issues this is a good keyboard overall.

I've been searching for years for the perfect wireless keyboard with an attached touchpad. This one is quite possibly the best I've tried so far, but there is still room for improvement. It comes close, but doesn't quite hit the mark for me. [PROS] [1] - Standard key spacing for touch typing, not condensed. [2] - Tap-to-click can be disabled without installing software. [3] - Backlit keys have 7 color options and two brightness levels. [4] - Mouse buttons are actually scissor-type keys, while most competitors use inferior hinged buttons. [5] - Uses Bluetooth so there is no USB dongle to worry about. [6] - Touchpad provides highly accurate mouse pointer control. [CONS] [1] - This keyboard forgets that tap-to-click has been disabled every time it's switched off! This seems like a significant design flaw to me, and it's the reason I only gave 4 stars. When switched off, it remembers the Bluetooth pairing, and the user-configured backlight preferences, including color choice and brightness level, so why shouldn't it also remember the tap-to-click preference? It seems silly that I have to re-enter the special key combination [Fn]-[Right-Ctrl] to disable tap-to-click after every single time I switch the keyboard on. This setting should be one-and-done. [2] - [UPDATE] Battery life is terrible with the backlight on. The keyboard stopped responding and had to be recharged after less than 2 days of moderate use. The product listing advertises a whopping 6 months on a single charge with the backlight off, but they are careful not to mention what the battery consumption will be like if you actually use the backlight. I expected better. I am going to test the battery life without the backlight and see if it comes anywhere close to the claims in the product listing, and I may be deducting another star depending on the outcome. Stay tuned... [WISH LIST] [1] - Multi-device support like the Arteck HD197 would be nice. [2] - It would look better with a real metal case like the Arteck HD197. [3] - Full-size top row keys like the Arteck HD197 would be nice. [4] - Basically, I would like to see Arteck make a premium keyboard that combines the great features of both keyboards into one model. I would easily pay double for a keyboard like that! [MORE ON TAP-TO-CLICK] - Unfortunately, Windows does not include any native ability to disable tap-to-click. Microsoft left that up to the hardware manufacturers. If a manufacturer decides to implement tap-to-click in their touchpad, then it is up to that manufacturer to include a way to disable that feature, either directly on the hardware, or else via software/drivers. - This has been something of a sore subject to me for a while. Given the number of consumers like me who don't want tap-to-click, I don't understand why manufacturers continue to make it difficult or impossible to turn this feature off. I tried Logitech keyboards K400 and K400+, but the only method to disable tap-to-click on those keyboards requires downloading and installing Logitech's bloated software on your PC. Still many other keyboard models that I tried over the years included no method whatsoever to disable tap-to-click. One such example was a different keyboard by this same brand, the multi-device Arteck HD197 keyboard. Strangely, that particular model included the option to completely disable all touchpad functionality, but no option to just disable tap-to-click. - I was initially excited when I read that Arteck had finally made a keyboard with a hardware setting to disable tap-to-click, but my excitement was short-lived when I realized the setting doesn't stick - you have to reapply the setting every time you switch the keyboard on! Sigh... so close, but just missed the mark.
