iClever Foldable Keyboard, BK08 Foldable Bluetooth Keyboard with Touchpad, Aluminum Build, USB-C Charge, Equipped with Stand Holder and Carrying Bag, Portable for Laptop, iPad, iPhone, Silver

Pros:+ Keyboard works well and was easy to connect to multiple devices.+ Metal frame and keys all have a high quality feel.+ It is a compact design ideal for storage and travel, but not too small; I have above average size hands, so long periods of typing or gaming would not be the most comfortable, but it is perfect for keeping my hot laptop off of my lap.Cons:- The folding joints don't lock into place, so if the keyboard is on a less-sturdy surface (such as resting on your knees if they are more than 4 inches apart), typing in the center section will cause it to fold in on itself and possibly drop if you're not careful.- The non-slip feet are not the best, so the keyboard can occasionally slip on smooth surfaces while using the track-pad.- The light to indicate the keyboard is charging is not visible while it is folded.

Ever try to use a laptop at a crowded airport bar during a flight delay? Or on an airplane with increasingly shrinking seat space? Now you don't have to. Remember the netbook craze where you ended up with a very underpowered laptop and low resolution screen? They call those mini/micro-laptops now and they are still underpowered with low res screens. Wireless keyboards aren't new, and portable bluetooth keyboards seem to be a dime a dozen...So what does the iClever BK08 offer that the countless other pocket bluetooth keyboards don't? True productivity in a pocket form factor. If paired with a screen that can display full-sized apps then you might have a real-deal laptop replacement. I am tired of lugging my laptop around, or having to keep a car nearby just to hold my computer and accessories in case I need to do work. Don't even get me started on a "lapdock" for a smartphone that has all the form factor drawbacks to a laptop with none of the processing horsepower.After getting fed up with my trusty but slightly flawed smartphone after a 10 minute unexpected work task took 30, I decided to upgrade to a folding phone so I could do no-kidding office work on my phone and display the level of detail I needed. After about a week I knew I was keeping the phone, but the onscreen keyboard was doing quirky things here and there I wasn't quite appreciating. For short periods of time it was fine, but if I wanted to do real productivity work the onscreen keyboard wasn't going to do.So I decided I needed a separate keyboard that was ultra-portable. After an hour of hour of looking around on Amazon, there was only one real option for me. The iClever BK08 had a touchpad with two physical buttons. Click and drag with one hand? Check. Right click for a context menu? Check. Right shift key? Check. All the keys you'd expect to have (Ctrl, Alt, Tab, F1-F12, etc)? Check. Being able to do office work productively anywhere without lugging around a tech pack? Check. And that's priceless.The keyboard was a little bigger than I was hoping for. After all this is a keyboard I bought to fold and go in a pant pocket. But after a couple of times actually walking around with it and unfolding it at a bar during happy hour (or on a random concrete pillar to type something out before I got distracted and forgot) the size of the keyboard actually became an advantage. One thing I noticed after only a couple of uses was that my typing speed was about the same as when using my laptop. On a lark I actually laid the iClever keyboard down by my laptop keyboard (coincidentally where the trackpad sits) and it has a typing surface that is about the same size. Not bad for something that fits in a pocket.I live in a walkable community, and one of the things that is going to be right next to my keys for when I am on the go is this keyboard. Definitely a game changer. Match this keyboard up with the right smartphone (and maybe a cheap, lightweight phone stand) and you have laptop replacement that bypasses the tablet device class altogether. You can use this with any device that accepts bluetooth keyboards, though, including tablets. For context I have included photos of the iClever BK08 keyboard placed by a foldable smartphone with unfolded screen, a tablet, and a laptop keyboard. The laptop has a 15" screen and the keyboards are roughly the same size.While using the keyboard I have had no issue with character pickup on the bluetooth connection, and trackpad has been accurate. The keyboard does not seem to have a power level indicator but I have not had an issue so far with battery life. I actually purchased two of these products, and one of the keyboards stays in my car in case I need to take an unscheduled meeting or work stop. The pack in phone/tablet stand works well, but I use a smaller product that folds a little flatter the cost me about $6. I keep the stand in my car in case I need to set my phone on an uneven surface.One improvement I would suggest is to have a multi-touch capable trackpad, but if using this with a touchscreen smartphone like I am it isn't really noticed because I zoom from the touchscreen. I only tested for multi-touch after reading a 1-star review that mentioned they could not scroll with two fingers. That is the first time I even thought to try it, so hadn't noticed. Also, another item for the wishlist would be backlit keys. But compared to the productivity boost this keyboard has provided me those are minor omissions. As a final side note: for gaming you would probably want to adhere some type of no-skid surface to the bottom of the keyboard.Bottom Line: This product combined with the right mobile device (smartphone, tablet, etc) can provide a laptop replacement-level productivity boost in a pocket form factor. This is a killer product for those want a mobile office without all the bulk.

Really nice and well made. I have an older iclever keyboard and they are made very well — robust, tough, reliable and well constructed. The older one still works perfectly. I got this one because I wanted a mousepad. Problem for me was my hands are too big. This keyboard is smaller than standard to accommodate the mousepad and it was just too small for me. Otherwise, a great product and made very well like all their products.

I had been debating between all the main foldable keyboards with touchpad for tablets for awhile now, and I narrowed down my choice to the Jelly Comb keyboard and this iClever keyboard. The Jelly Comb keyboard was only $29, had a higher average star rating, and seemed like it's main issue was missized keys at the fold of the keyboard. The iClever keyboard was more expensive at $45 and I read reviews saying the keyboard required the Fn key for some common keys. I decided to go with the Jelly Comb keyboard for the price and to avoid the Fn common keys issue.When I got the Jelly Comb, I was relatively happy, it worked okay and I finally had a keyboard for my tablet. The only issue I really saw was that the "a" key was not responsive unless I hit it in a specific way. I knew immediately I had to return it but I was thinking about getting a replacement of the same, I figured I just got a dud. However, because I wasn't super impressed with the other aspects of the keyboard (it felt a bit fragile at the joints, the keys weren't the most responsive, also a little superficial but I thought the font of the Jelly Comb logo made it look a little junky and also I saw typos in the instruction booklet which also gave me the same feeling) I decided to just go ahead and order the iClever keyboard instead.I'M SO HAPPY I DID! I'm very glad the first keyboard had issues, because this iClever keyboard is a different level of quality. The keys are so much more responsive and its just a whole different feel, it feels like a sturdy, legit keyboard that doesnt bend at the joints like the jelly comb did. I like the added touchpad buttons, and just overall look of the keyboard (it looks like alot of thought and effort was put into its design, all space is utilized). It is also more compact than the jelly comb, and I like the little pouch it comes with. The Jelly Comb has a manual power button while the iClever turns on and off automatically when it folds/unfolds. The issues I had so far are like other people have stated, when using the ' or " or ? keys my muscle memory makes me mess up, but if I actively remember I'm using this new keyboard it's not too hard to type them. Also, sometimes I've accidently hit the Printscreen button instead of the delete button since it is normally where backspace would be. I've only been using the keyboard for maybe an hour and I'm already getting used to the keys so I'm sure it will be fine. I feel it is more convenient than having the T or other letter buttons missized at the crease which the jelly comb had.I'm sorry if I appear to be hating on the jelly comb, for $29 it actually seemed like a very good product and if this hadn't been an option I would have reordered a non faulty one. It is just that after experiencing both keyboards, the iClever one just feels so much better to use and is exactly what I was looking for, and I was so excited I wanted to write a review which I don't normally do. Thanks making this keyboard, it's great :D
