08/01/2019, 5:11 PMa reliable/tested but not very expensive wireless keyboard recommendation for macboook ?
I had purchased a budgets keyboard earlier which had unstable bluetooth connection and it was conflicting with other bluetooth devices.
I am seeing Logitech K380 as an option, but not sure of its ease of use?
Any help guys ? Looking it in a range of 3k.

PS: I’m fine tuning my desk. Buying an AmazonBasics raiser laptop stand. So would need a separate keyboard too.

08/01/2019, 5:13 PMone issue I see with these combo keyboards are the keys being not exactly the same.
ctrl and fn keys are interchanged in this one. And one reason could be to make it easy with Win too.

08/02/2019, 4:53 AMIts a good design. I’m thinking of amazon basic laptop stand. This is a raiser, so won’t be able to use the keyboard. General laptop raiser similar to above are there already.

08/02/2019, 4:54 AMFor laptop stand, my wife has this one which is quite good value and rugged. She has a Macbook Air. But I have put in my bulky Dell on it and also Macbook Pro and holds well.

08/02/2019, 5:00 AM@loud-glass-33663 does it not slip off? plus when you are carrying in your bag, it is a little on the bulky side isnt it?

08/02/2019, 5:02 AMNo no .. You cannot carry it in your bag @adorable-musician-78571
It is freakin’ heavy. It stays put on our desk at home.
Also, it is not designed for you to type on it. I think the Kickstarter one you linked is for travel / allows you to type?

08/02/2019, 5:03 AMthe kickstarter does allow to type but its inclined so wouldnt be easy. so thats why thought of a simple external keyboard

08/02/2019, 5:11 AM@crooked-daybreak-310 coming back to keyboard, do you know if this key construction is like a scissor or something? Guess the laptop keyboards are built that way and are super easy to type. just wana know

08/02/2019, 5:36 AMnot sure about that @adorable-musician-78571 . After some research now, this keyboard to me doesnt seems to be fit for a power user. I could be wrong here.
