Satechi Slim X1 Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard, 𝗨𝗦 𝗤𝗪𝗘𝗥𝗧𝗬 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗼𝘂𝘁, Backlit Multi-Device Design for MacBook Air & Pro M5 M4, Mac Mini, iPad Air & Pro, iMac and more – Space Grey

What a great little keyboard. Initially I bought it to use with my new Mac Mini G4, but after a few months I added a gaming laptop to my desk and this works on that too (I'm typing this review on it!). It's very compact and slides out the way when not in use and has the ability to work on 3 different devices. Typing feels nice, very much like a Mac keyboard and the berry lasts for ages. It was great value too as I got an open box one that looks like new!

As a huge Apple fan, I’ve always stuck with Apple products. However, when my magic keyboard broke recently, I was a bit strapped for cash. So I decided to try the Satechi slim X1. I was blown away by how fantastic it feels and, in my opinion, it’s far superior to the Apple keyboard. It types beautifully, is incredibly responsive and incredibly easy to use. The only downside is that it’s American, so you have to go into your Mac’s settings and change the keyboard layout. It’s not a big deal though; the £ symbol isn’t on the keyboard, which is honestly not a huge issue. One feature I absolutely love is the three Bluetooth channels. You can link it to three different devices simultaneously and easily switch between them with a single click. The keyboard even has backlighting and an amazing battery life that lasts forever. It feels like it never needs charging. I’ve never looked back at the magic keyboard and we always use the Satechi now.

I've only had this keyboard a day but so far it's really good. I'm coming directly from the Apple Magic Keyboard (full size), and while this does feel different it's about as close as you're going to get. The keys have a tad more travel, it feels like one of the older MacBooks circa 2010, which isn't a bad thing. The backlight works well too, there's a little bit of bleed around the keys as well as the actual letters lighting up, which I think is by design rather than a technical limitation. It would have been nice to have a UK keyboard layout option, but it's not the end of the world. shift + 3 is the £ sign if anyone is wondering. The build quality is very good, it's up there with the Apple Magic Keyboard. The grey colour of the keyboard doesn't match the space grey of the Apple magic keyboard exactly, it's a slightly lighter shade (see attached photograph). It doesn't bother me as I'm using it together with an Apple Magic Mouse which is black on top, but I could see it being an issue if you were looking to colour match to the Magic Trackpad. Connectivity seems good. It paired with my M1 Mac mini with no issues, and wakes the computer from sleep just fine. The keyboard can be paired with up to 3 wireless devices, and can be used wired as well. I haven't encountered the issue with the keyboard not being recognised at the login screen, or with key presses registering more than once - which was mentioned in a couple of the other reviews. It all works fine for me. The function keys labeled for screen brightness don't seem to work though. I have an Apple Thunderbolt Display connected to my Mac mini, and using the same keys on my previous keyboard adjusts the screen brightness. I don't know if I've not set it up correctly or something, but the rest of the function keys work fine and do as you would expect. Over all I'd give this keyboard 5 stars. While it's not perfect, the price is reasonable and I think the score needs bumping up a bit as it should be more than 3/5. Until Apple decide to make the space grey Magic Keyboard in the smaller size, this is the nearest you're going to get.

I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised by this product. From its sleek design to the satisfying feeling while typing, it has exceeded my expectations. And for those who are wondering about its compatibility with Android devices, let me assure you—it works seamlessly! I've been using it with my Samsung Tab 8+, and it's been fantastic. I highly recommend this product to anyone in search of a quality keyboard for their Android device.

Really like this keyboard. It's small, feels well made and connected easily enough. It looks great with my Mac studio. It's so much better priced that the official Mac keyboard which is absolutely ridiculously priced. I love how this feels nice quality with the metal casing. You can pair 3 Bluetooth devices with it. Would recommend

Excellent quality

I’ve been eyeing the Satechi Slim X1 keyboard for the longest time to pair it with my MacBook and iPad Pro. Sleek design and made for Apple makes this keyboard the best third party keyboard for your Apple ecosystem. Get it and you will never regret.

Did not expected such great keyboard with outstanding battery life

Seamless connection and switching between devices. Really a great device and finishing is spectacular. It’s so slim, I won’t leave it in office just because most of my staff eyes are in this keyboard ha ha.
