TeckNet X315 - QU Wireless

Compact, silent wireless keyboard with 15M range, 14 shortcut keys, and 12-month battery life on 2 AAA. Comfortable typing with scissor-switch design. Review: Great little keyboard - easy to set up and use. - Packaging Packaging is delightfully minimalist and hassle-free. The keyboard is inside a thin plastic sleeve which ships in a snug cardboard box made of recyclable cardboard. It is easy to open but also sturdy enough to protect the contents well. From an environmentally friendly perspective, they could likely do away with the plastic altogether without affecting the robustness of the packaging, but all-in-all, this is some of the more environmentally conscious modes of packaging I have come across for items in this category. Inside the Box The box contains the keyboard (with the nano receiver clipped inside a special recess inside the battery compartment). In addition, there is a warrantee card and a minimalist instructions card. About the Product The keyboard is comfortable, light and surprisingly sturdy for the price. It seems to be made of good quality plastic. The keys are of a comfortable size and are responsive with a satisfying action and setting the device up is effortless. At the moment I’m using it as a “remote” keyboard for my Microsoft Surface which I have connected to my TV for nights when I want to work in comfort from the sofa without the weight of a tablet or laptop on my lap. I have not been using it long enough to be able to comment yet on battery life and how battery drain may affect the drop-off range of connections. However, so far it performs exactly as one would hope and expect for a device like this when used under “normal” usage conditions. The instructions claim that the batteries can last for up to 6 months - not an unrealistic claim given my similar experience with another TeckNet keyboard I use in my office. Conclusion I am very pleased with the product. For the price it seems reliable, easy to set up and use and as a bonus it looks good in my living room (which seems to be the standard for TeckNet products in general). I’ll post an update on battery life and connectivity/stability if anything noteworthy pops up, but for now I am happy to recommend this keyboard without reservation. It’s a fine device for the price and it does what it needs to do comfortably and without fuss. Review: Compact, easy to use - Nice and small, ideal for travelling and works great
