This is a great little Chromebook keyboard. It syncs easily and quickly and is surprisingly comfortable for me to use considering it's small size. I needed a 10 key and this gives me that plus Chromebook specific keys. I've been using it via bloothooth and it's surprisingly fast for a bluetooth keyboard. I have noticed that the screen brightness buttons and play/pause button are a bit mixed up but there is likely a way to reprogram them, I just haven't spent the time to figure it out. That's really been my only minor issue up to this point.

This is a really great keyboard. I love how easy it is to connect via Bluetooth. I used it for my Chromebook and my iPhone. It worked perfectly from the get-go. It’s easy to type on & my hands never get fatigued. A word to the wise: the key clicks are not 100% silent, but they’re barely noticeable, and it’s not backlit. Also, if you have a case on your iPad or your phone, they may not fit in the incorporated slot.

I love how easy it is to use rhis keyboard. It's very simple to connect to any type of device. For PC's or devices without Bluetooth, there is a USB reciever in the battery compartment. For Bluetooth devices, you simply have to hold down one of the two device buttons for three seconds, to put the keyboard into pairing mode. Then , go to your device and connect to the keyboard through your Bluetooth settings. When trying to connect, a code will pop up on your screen. All you have to do, is type the code into the keyboard and press enter, you are now connected, and can quickly switch between active devices by selecting the correct device on the keyboard. The keyboard also comes with 15 FN keys for quick shortcuts to your devices functions. ie,.. volume, play,screen brightness, back button, lock, menu,..etc. Although this keyboard was designed for Chrome, it can be used on anything. The keyboard has virtually every keyboard layout programmed into it, and the layouts can be accessed by holding down two keys for 3 seconds. Windows,.. "fn" + "P" Mac,.... "fn" + "O" (this is not a zero) iPhone,.... "fn" + "i" Chrome,.... "fn" + "8" Android,.... "fn" + "9" The keyboard does have two keys that are assigned to the Google Assistant and Chrome Apps, while the layout is set for Chrome. These keys change functionality based on the layout selected. ( see attached pics ) Aside from all the cool key features this keyboard offers, the next best impressive thing is the battery life. Under typical use, they are projecting 2-years of use with standard alkaline AAA's. (it takes 2 batteries) That is some pretty impressive power usage. Switching between devices is very convenient, no need to open up any settings, or do anything else ( provided your 2 devices have already been paired ) . Just simply hit the device button you want, and start typing. Go back and forth between the two devices as often as needed without skipping a beat. The keyboard is compact, and has a very low profile, but feels very sturdy, the keys feel soft to the touch, and are relatively quiet, with just a light sound, depending on how hard or fast you are typing. Even though it is compact, it doesn't shift around at all when placed on a level surface. There are rubber stoppers on the bottom of the device to keep it from moving, but there is also a nice weight to it, which adds to holding it in place. I have actually typed this whole review with the K580, while it was sitting on a newspaper on my kitchen table, and it hasn't budged an inch. It really holds it's place very well. But does offer an impressive wireless range of slightly over 32 feet, for people that might like to lounge on the couch or anywhere else and still be able to use your devices.
