Performance

This keyboard features a dual-mode connection, which means that you can either use the in-built Bluetooth receiver or switch to 2.4G wireless. The Bluetooth connection is great and strong even at a distance of about 20 feet, which is 12 feet shorter than the iClever BK03. In 2.4G wireless mode, you’ll need to connect the unifying receiver to the USB port on the device. It works with devices such as Fire TV, Fire Stick, any Android TV box, and other such products, just like the Verbatim Mini Wireless slim keyboard and mouse. You can also try the Logitech K400 Plus, which also comes with a touchpad. To get a slim wireless keyboard with a numeric keypad for your computer, read our Wisfox 2 4G review.
