Review on Macally Computer Wired Keyboard Apple by Jill Lawrence

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good price but keys changed a bit

I've been using a Macally keyboard for 2.5 years and wanted to replace it (few issues - maybe my old iMac but I'm a keyboard novice). These keyboards are a great value compared to Apple's expensive ones. I got a metallic finish for it - great! This is a matte finish to match my iMac. The keys are not smooth and have a light texture that feels good. The button press and action is very similar to the Apple board. As others have said, there is no way to lift the keyboard to tilt it to a different angle. My biggest issue is that they added two function keys to the bottom row and resized the control, option and command keys! I use keyboard shortcuts a lot and I'm having to get used to the smaller Command key. I'm sure I'll get used to it, but so far it's annoying. (See picture - new keyboard above for comparison.) So 4.5 more stars!

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Too long to wait
