Review on πŸ”€ Rii Wireless Keyboard with Touchpad & QWERTY for Raspberry: Optimal Input Solution by Eldrick Carlton

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It works, but you have to get used to the location of the buttons

I will say that this device works well. I turn it off to save battery and when I turn it back on it connects immediately. BUT I wouldn't recommend it for two reasons: 1. The lack of a backlight makes it difficult to use in the dark. Let's face it, you're not going to be using this in a lighted room. Because then you would just use a regular keyboard. You'll probably use it as a remote control to select your next Netflix show or YouTube video. So you probably turn off the light. Remote controls need lighting. It has no.2. Button placement is confusing. I don't like that they have semicolon and single quote buttons on the second row from the bottom. IMHO it should be somewhere else. Because it nullifies the positioning of the ZXCVBNM line. I've frequently accidentally pressed M instead of N etc.

Pros
  • Quick replacement
Cons
  • Almost everything is there
