Review on Macally Small USB Keyboard Wired (Mac/PC): Space-Saving 2 Zone Design | Slim Compact Keyboard for Laptop with Metal Base and 5ft USB Cable | Apple Compatible Keyboard Small - Silver by Beth Williams

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Doesn't work 100% on Mac

I got this for my older MacBook with a standard USB port. In general I like it, it's small but with a full keyboard and light. But you can't switch the number pad to arrows, only numbers (according to their website). It doesn't matter since numbers are what I want most of the time. But if you need arrow keys, you only have four tiny keys at the bottom of the keyboard, not very efficient or no more than what is on a MacBook. The keyboard does not light up, but the function keys work like they do on a Mac, including the key brightness on a Mac. But it doesn't make sense if you use this keyboard. In sleep mode, the power LED is still lit, which consumes some of your Macbook's battery, but I haven't checked how much yet. That.
