As it’s a solar-powered keyboard, there are no battery hassles. (Now, you hope that light power extends to the skills of your game character). Registering any of the keyboards adds an extra year of warranty, bringing the total to two years.The electric meter has been ticking nonstop and if only you can cut down the usage of electricity… Logitech comes in and declares, i f you ’ve got light, you’ve got power. There’s also a PC version of the RF keyboard available for Windows users. The user simply places the dongle into the USB port, turns on the keyboard, and gets to work. Since it’s not a Bluetooth device, no pairing is required. The RF and Bluetooth versions of the keyboard work pretty much identically, with one variance: the RF version includes a small USB dongle that needs to be placed into one of the USB-A ports on a Mac to work. Macally also did something that Apple should emulate: it put the “hieroglyphics” for the control, option and command keys right on those keys! For those who are new to the Mac and might not realize that the shortcuts listed in the menus correspond to specific keys, Macally puts a ⌘ on the Command key, a ⌥ on the Option key, and a ⌃ on the Control key. The P key is marked with the words “Pair: Fn+P”, which with a glance tells you which keys you need to press to enter pairing mode. If you do need to read the user guide, you’re in luck - it’s actually well-written, concise and easy to understand. With the Macally keyboards, the instructions are right on the keyboard. 
I have to hand it to the designers of the keyboard, who apparently understand that not everyone can read their minds! Some other third-party keyboards I’ve tested require searching through poorly-written user guides to figure out how to pair the keyboard. Press it for about 1 second and it turns off the screen, or press and hold it for 2 – 3 seconds and the Restart/Shutdown menu appears. The Power button also works to wake a sleeping Mac. There’s a “Save” button (F16) that works in any app to invoke the Save As dialog, For those Mac users who want to save power, there’s a Power button in the top right of the keyboard. Two keys (F14 and F15) work as buttons for full screen capture and area screen capture. There’s even a print key.īy pressing the Function (Fn) and esc keys simultaneously, the keyboard goes into Shortcut mode. Other keys increase or decrease the size of text on a page, and there’s a key that invokes the Force Quit dialog. Some of the special keys are very welcome: there’s a key with the familiar Spotlight symbol on it that brings up Apple’s macOS search engine with a touch. Those keys include the usual keys found on Mac keyboards, a row of function/shortcut keys, and a 17-key numeric keypad for numeric entry.
The keyboards use full-size and very quiet scissor-key-switch keys that have a great positive feedback and work well for speed typing.
