Bluetooth Number Pad
C**.
Good for occasional use, battery management is a problem for me
TLDR at bottom.I WFH 2 days a week and do work in a field where a 10-key makes life a lot better during certain tasks.At home I use Logitech MX Keys Mini because I never could justify using a FSK at home size I only need it occasionally during those 2 days. All functions work for me on Windows notebook and my MacBook connected via BT. Battery life is amazing, IF you remember to turn it off, I don't. I wish it had an auto off feature, I haven't looked but I'm sure there's a similar product that does. Personally, if I find one with that feature with a similar styte, I'll probably purchase that and use this as a backup.Pros.Great valuematches MX series aestheticsResistant to smudges, stays very clean compared to MX KeysFunctions work for me (Windows 10, MacOS Ventura)Has a spot for a wireless adapter should you need one and purchase oneCons.Battery on/off switch (If you can manage yourself to remember, user error)Build feels light, thinDoes what it says it does, stays clean. Mid durability. You have to remember to turn it off.

I bought this as a remote control for my CNC and it works for that
My CNC allows me to HOT KEY the 10-key arrows and other buttons and using this as a "remote control" I was able to locate my CNC on the other side of a wall away form my laptop which is on a dock.I added the stickers to label the hot keys

Works great!
I'm working from home on a laptop, and I bought this for data entry, since my laptop doesn't have the full number pad like my desktop at work. It was easy to connect with bluetooth the first time I set it up, and it automatically connects to my computer when I turn it back on now. The little calculator button is great- it pulls up the calculator app on my computer, which is nifty. I've been using it for a little over a month, and I probably use it for a total of an hour a week. I'm still on the first set of batteries that came with it, so I think the battery use is pretty good too, but I'm always careful to turn it off as soon as I'm done using it. I have rechargeable batteries that I'll use in it after these die.If you need a number pad and don't want one that takes up a USB port, I *highly* recommend this one.

excellent keypad for the occasional user
Hi I like to use kepads if I need to enter data into the laptop but not a heavy user.so for me this works great. I dont mind the auto sleep feature and kind of like it so I can conserve battery. Plus since I'm not an accountant or anything like that the several second delay doesnt bother me. Its nice that there's an enter button.this device does not look as sleek as some of the other ones out there but it does the job for a very decent price and I've had no problems with it. highly recommend for a basic side numeric pad.

Works with PixelBook
First Impression - Synced right up with my PixelBook. Contrary to what it says in the Product Description, this does not require 2 - AAA batteries. It has an internal battery with a short USB cable to charge it. It does operate while charging (so I'll likely leave it plugged in when it's on my desk). All the keys seem to work as expected. It had gone to 'sleep' and I tried using while writing this review and it took a few key presses to wake up. Something to keep an eye on. That's why it's 4 starts instead of 5. Color scheme doesn't match the PixelBook, but I knew that when I bought it. The keys have more travel than the PixelBook keyboard, but not annoyingly so. It gets me the missing Delete, Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down keys, which is the main thing I was looking for. The numeric keypad will come in handy, too.

A little slow to wake, but works
I have a USB version for work and the Bluetooth at home. The pad at work never misses a number. The Bluetooth pad takes a stroke or two to wake up from sleep mode.With that said, I have a Surface and itβs nice to not have to use the USB port for a number pad or mouse.

Add a 10-key to your laptop
As an accountant I rely on my keyboard 10-key, but this isn't an option when I'm not sitting at my desk using my full-size keyboard. This Bluetooth 10-key keypad makes gives me a portable 10-key option which is great for meetings or travel. Paired with my laptop with no issue and works just as you'd expect from a 10-key. Great purchase.

Nice and Compact
One of the downsides of a laptop is that most don't come with a 10 key in order to save space, so when I found this Bluetooth keypad I had to give it a chance. I was pleasantly surprised by how thin it is and it connected to my laptop without a problem. I was concerned at first that there was no backarrow, but the Clear button actually serves that purpose. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the purchase.

For a Mac - waste of time.
Maybe works great on a Windows PC but for a Mac, don't bother - unless you would use it a lot and it would stay awake and connected. The Calculator button can't be set to launch the calculator app. It loses Bluetooth connection very soon after using it so you have to wake it (tap a key and wait for it to reconnect) to use it, by which time you might as well have typed the number on the Mac keyboard. As I said, if you're likely to be using it a lot I can see it being very handy (like if you do lots of accounting or adding numbers in Spreadsheets etc but for randomly needing a numeric keypad, not very good.

Product does not work.
PRODUCT DOES NOT WORK!Item does not come with the adapter required to connect through bluetooth, therefore product does not work.1/5Spend LESS money and buy from somewhere else.I now have to spend another Β£7.99 to buy a USB adapter to connect this device through bluetooth.Wasting my time and my patience.Congratulations!! Quite an achievement.They should start selling their cables separately as well for their wired items. π

Stopped working after 4 months
This was bought for my sons school work. He used it pretty much daily for a little over 4 months.This morning, only the zero worked. Changed battery's. Did all the usual trouble shoots. Nothing.It's a shame because as a number pad, it's great. But for longevity and the price paid. 2 stars feels generous.No way to contact the seller

Works fine, just cuts out quite regularly
It works fine on my macbook pro, all the buttons work apart from the function buttons (home, pgup, etc), but I only needed it for the numbers and things like divide, multiply etc, basically using it as a calculator, and it works fine like that. Easy to connect, just works straight away, although it cuts out too quickly for my liking. The default seems to be every 5 minutes or so of inactivity the bluetooth connection will stop and it will come up as 'disconnected'. Kind of annoying to wait that extra couple of seconds for it to connect again if I'm using it for a few hours.

Not Bad...
Nice to be able to have a keypad on the left-hand side of my keyboard, although it does need to be reconnected fairly frequently, as it spontaneously and randomly unpairs. Obviously designed with Apple's keyboards in mind, but the font on the keypad doesn't match up with Apple's keyboard font, which I find really annoying, for some reason.
