Review on πŸ”’ Macally Wireless Bluetooth Numeric Keypad for MacBook, iMac, Windows PC, Tablet - Rechargeable 18 Key Bluetooth Number Pad in White by Laura Peterson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Holds a charge, doesn't bother, but works patchy after a few months

This is one of the few items I've found that work reliably with Mac Bluetooth. It turns off automatically if you haven't used it for a while, but warns you on your Mac screen that it's turning off. However, after a few months of use, I found that it would not connect. I assumed it needed charging so I charged it and didn't use it for about a week as I didn't need it. When I tried to use it I still couldn't connect it. I tried several times, used the prescribed method (backspace + enter) and nothing happened. I was about to throw it in the trash and a few days later tried it one last time (I've been trying for days) and suddenly it was working again, no pairing required.

Pros
  • Input Devices
Cons
  • Good, but not great
