When is a portable keyboard too small? When is a keyboard basically a laptop keyboard in portable format? This would be the Joros. I picked this up for travel use with not only my laptops but the ultimate idea is a Small Form Factor (SFF) system with a wireless keyboard and wireless mouse. The packaging and presentation are all 100% Razer which means finely presented with quality oozing from not only the packaging but the keyboard itself and USB-C cable included. Setup is straight forward but you will want to start with it plugged in and go ahead and install the new Razer Synapse 4 software. There is an update waiting for external download and execution. This seems to be the Razer approach for updating most of their devices as the numerous Razer mice, keyboards, speakers and docks I own all use an external application updating system. I actually prefer it this way. As with many of their items, Synapse lets you customize your keyboard as you see fit. While it doesn't have per key RGB addressing, it does have good backlighting that is easy to see. Aesthetically, the keyboard is sleek and stylish. I like the simplicity of the keyboard in that it has a switch for Bluetooth or wired, a USB-C port and that's it. Razer cables are always thin, high quality, light and flexible which I always love. But in the end it comes down to the keyboard itself and it is lacking in many areas. For starters, this looks, feels and types like a laptop keyboard in a portable form factor. I do not have a Razer laptop, but I would not be surprised to find a very similar style of keyboard on one of the models. Scissor switch based keys are ok for a laptop, but for an external portable keyboard just isn't acceptable. The half height function keys make absolutely no sense. For an extra half an inch in length they could have fit full size function keys on top. For gaming on the go, the half size keys are a major fail as many games use function keys. The lack of a dongle based 2.4ghz wireless system only leaves you with wired and Bluetooth and for competitive gaming, Bluetooth doesn't have the response time of a wireless dongle based device. But taking in the overall design, this doesn't appear to be meant for gamers. It has zero rear elevation for enhanced angled typing. The keyboard is so low profile with a tiny built in angle it actually is unpleasant to type on. I ended up dragging my Keychron V2 ultra slim wireless BT/USB wired mechanical keyboard (pictured alongside the Joros) out for comparisons and quite frankly for a fraction of the price the Keychron is the superior device where it counts. It has a real mechanical keyboard with real switches and travel. The function keys are full size and it has rear leg extensions for proper elevation. It may have less lighting options or battery life, but that pales in comparison to what it does have and makes it a much better keyboard all around. It is a tiny bit bigger and taller but easily worth the tradeoff. I have spent several days prototyping and trying to make the Joros make sense in not only my setups but its layout and short comings and in the end it just has too many flaws. I will go ahead and purchase another Keychron for my other laptops/sff and I will end up using the Joros as a portable diagnostic keyboard for field work because it does have crazy good battery life and it and its cable are very light and will take up minimal space in my field work bag. Overall, if you're looking for a good, well rounded, ergonomically sound keyboard that is portable yet gives you a superior typing experience, I am sad to say the Joros is not it and for me, one of the rare misses from Razer.

Expensive but good, it's very well made, all metal build and light but rigid and durable. Keys are firm and stable, but takes a little bit of getting used to the layout for some reason, it's not exactly a standard sized keyboard. However, if you want the most premium RGB wireless backlit, lightestweight option for travel this is it. Battery life is actually quite long, I always leave the backlight on and I rarely need to charge it.

The Razer Joro is an outstanding portable keyboard that delivers on both build quality and typing experience. The low-profile switches feel fantastic—responsive, smooth, and comfortable for extended use. Its compact form factor makes it perfect for travel or small desk setups, and having the flexibility to connect via Bluetooth or USB-C is a huge plus. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a premium portable keyboard. My only gripe is that, for a product clearly designed with portability in mind, it would have been great if Razer included a travel case to protect it on the go.

so far, it’s been one of the best mobile keyboards i’ve used. feels like a premium laptop keyboard shoved into an aluminum case; it’s all i needed

This keyboard is pretty much the gamer-isk ver. of Apple's Magic Keyboard. It is a low-profile keyboard that is quite compact (75%) whilst also housing in such a thin chassis. This is such an excellent on-the-go keyboard when travelling. The only downside is the battery life SUCKS when using the lighting, and the lighting is not per-key. Given the price and Razer's quality for RBG lighting, I expected much better. Also, you need to install the Synapse and have it running in the background for any lighting changes to take effect (there is no onboard memory whatsoever:( ).

Solid battery, I like the solid and rigid design. Important to note there are no feet to get some verticality.

Love this keyboard! I primarily use it for work on both my Windows laptop and Mac, and I’ve never had any connection issues. The battery life is solid—I do need to charge it every two days, but that’s likely because I keep the RGB lighting on continuously. Other than that, I have no complaints and would definitely recommend this keyboard.

Slim, amazing. Great feedback. Beautiful chroma. Would buy again

This keyboard is stunning. I am of a very weird camp as a PC gamer. I want as low profile as I can get, as it feels much more natural, especially without arching my wrist. From what I've read, you really want to minimize the strain you add to your wrist when using a keyboard. Typing is great, I feel the short travel distance makes it easier to actuate the keys, and the force needed is just right. As an added bonus, it's super quiet. Don't forget to update the keyboard to support the Hyperspeed dongle!

I went into best buy one day to find some other wired keyboard, accidentally stumbled upon this instead. It's definitely a bit to get used to if you generally use a proper desktop keyboard. The spacing between keys are very small, so until you get used to the spacing, there will be allot of fat fingering. I bought this for my portable setup and it fits perfectly into my backpack. This is awsome. If you are in the market to make a decent on the go gaming setup - this is a must.

Fun portable and great in a steam deck! Five stars!

Purchased as a gift for my wife. She is very selective on her electronic gadgets. It is being used for Apple products, she does not like the Apple "backspace" feature and is more accustomed to the microsoft type keyboards with the "DEL" key. She is pleased with the keyboard, she can us it on her Mac, her IPAD and her iphone.

I really did like the size of this and overall look as well. But I did return it for a reason that may be more of a personal issue. I loved everything except the amout of force it takes to press a key. I tried for a couple of days and noticed my wpm speed was down a lot and errors went up due to me skipping letters I thought I pressed. After testing it against my laptop keyboard I noticed the keys had more travel than my laptop which is good but I had to really slam down on each key for it to register and that was a big problem for me. Some people may be just fine with the actuation force but I personally prefer a tactile key that is smooth and easy to press. Maybe the keys would loosen up over time but I was frustrated using this and just gave up and returned it. But every single box other than that it had checked. So if you can deal with the issue I just mentioned its an excellent product that is why I still rated 4 stars despite the fact that I ultimatelly hated using it

Simple and clean feels great in a minimalist setup dont know if they have different colors but awesome overall.

Packs easy and held up to being tossed around in a soft sided bag by airline ground crews.

Love the keyboard the shift keys are to close together but other than that great.

The keys feel soft to the touch, it is very light and small perfect to take anywhere.

Love the low profile with full-sized cursor keys. design and full compatibility with both Windows and iOS. Software is resource-heavy but allows for a lot of customization. Only drawback is short battery life for a “portable” keyobard.

I LOVE the rebound on these keys! It feels like you're typing on the highest end laptop keyboard ever. Its so great for typing with arthritis. The rebound actually helps lessen fatigue in my joints when typing a lot.

Hands down one of the most Advanced keyboards out there, it works on android with a very smart internal sodtware that allows it to act as a PROPER controller compared to others like the Logitech or crosshairs wireless. I rate this a 7/10 for what the product actually is. Wish they would give us more in depth information of the software but hey. All around good buy from best buy
