Beautifully crafted, responsive keys, extended layout with numeric keypad makes light work...truly a great product at an incredibly low price. Especially appreciate the "exact match" with the Macbook pro aluminum case... Read more
This has been my favorite keyboard for my Macs. I've owned at least three. My only complaint is that the letters seem to wear off of the frequently used keys too quickly, which is mainly an esthetic issue. Read more
The keyboard is very easy to install, worked as expected right away and is slim as advertised. The keys are slightly raised compared to Apple's keyboard and are somewhat less responsive to soft touches. But for the price it is a great value. Read more
Very pleased with this keyboard. I like having the number keyboard to the right, which the Apple keyboard does not have. This keyboard had a much lower price than the Apple keyboard (less than half). Set up was simple. Read more
I got this keyboard the other day so that I could use it with my laptop (macOS) and my desktop (Windows) and it seems to work flawlessly on both. There are a few accommodations I need to make when using on my Windows machine but just use the keys that are in the correct position no matter what they say on them and you’d never know they were different. Just make certain to use the fn-lock feature when on a pc if you ever use function keys. I like the feel of the keys while typing and it’s much more comfortable than other keyboards I’ve used. It’s very quiet while typing and the only key that remotely makes noise is the space bar. I got it for my laptop mainly because I work a lot with numbers and I really like having the number pad. Which leads me to my only complaint, I wish it didn’t have a “power” button on it or that it was in a different spot. It is right next to the minus button and if I bump it then it immediately shuts my computer down or puts it in sleep mode. I don’t see any way to disable this function and my tower is underneath my desk in a cabinet. It makes it terribly annoying to have to crawl under and turn it back on. It does only send the computer to sleep mode so I don’t lose any work but I haven’t been able to revive the computer without using the power button on the tower. The worst time was when I was adding figures while looking at a printout and just kept going until I heard the monitor beep at the loss of signal. Lol. The reason I still gave it five stars is because it’s not Macally’s fault I hit the wrong key. Considering the price, it’s every bit as good as keyboards costing three times as much. Read more
This is the second Macaulay keyboard that I ordered that has failed. The first one, a different model, would sporadically just dim the display to black. This model would lose connection to power, and I would have to unplug and then re-plug in to reestablish power connection. I would not recommend Macaulay keyboards. Read more
I purchased the aluminum silver ultra slim full keyboard with number keys to work with my Microsoft Surface Book 2. I wanted a USB wired keyboard so that I didn't have to deal with bluetooth or wireless issues. The cord is white, sleek and easy to tuck into so you don't see it. Not a fan of the look of wires, but like their reliability. The keyboard synced automatically with my Surface Book and matches the color -- brushed aluminum. It is metal because my Surface Pro has a magnet in the base and the keyboard was attracted to it. Love at first sight. The keys are very responsive, set apart perfectly for fast typing and the sound is pleasing (none). There are no "decals" and the keys are printed into the plastic so I don't anticipate they will rub off any time soon. My old Dell keyboard had the "s" and "l" keys etched in after 5 years of daily typing with fingernails. The keys have a nice matte feel to them. A nice tactile touch. The space bar is easy to access, as well as "delete", "return" and "tab". It is exceptionally smooth and compact without squishing everything in. The number keyboard works, you just need to unlock it -- by hitting "Clear" on the keypad. The function keys work, volume, brightness, eject, copy and cut. It doesn't slip around at all. In fact, I have to pick it up to move it. It is surprisingly solid for being so light. I had been working on my laptop keyboard (which I love the feel) but found that my neck and wrists weren't happy to type every day for hours on a laptop keyboard on a riser. I should have bought this months ago! I was going to expense it for business use, but I'm going to keep it for myself to use on my personal Mac laptop I love it so much! Read more
