MacallyFull-Size USB Wired Keyboard for Mac Mini/Pro, iMac Desktop Computer, MacBook Pro/Air Desktop w/ 16 Compatible Apple Shortcuts, Extended with Number Keypad, Rubber Domed Keycaps - Spill Proof

I now have this keyboard at home and in the office as I find it comfortable to use and great quality.

Very good keyboard, which we bought to replace the old Mac keyboard where years of use had destroyed 4 or 5 jays. It works! What else can I say, the Function keys are different so be careful the first week!

Much as I love the look of Apple keyboards, I've never found them particularly good to use. Might be down to me, because I never learned to touch type. Anyway, my keyboard met an unfortunate accident and while it was still just about usable, I needed a replacement in a hurry and I did not want a wireless keyboard.For the price this is excellent, although time will tell how well it bears up to frequent, albeit not heavy, use. It suits my style - if I dare call it that - of typing much better than the Apple did.I have two, minor, niggles: it is so light, I had to buy a mat to go under it to stop it sliding about on the desk, and there is no light on the CapsLock key. But at this price, those really are minor complaints.

This is a really good value-for-money wired MAC-compatible keyboard. All the keys have a light, responsive and quiet action. Most of the keys are in exactly the same place as my old genuine Apple A1048, although the Apple is a much heavier and better-made board. For the money you really cannot go wrong with the Macally. Maybe the "stuck-on" letter transfers will fail over time ? Who knows? But so far I am very happy with this board.

The keyboard is a US one, there is no pound (£) key - you have to press shift+3Otherwise, it is ok - a bit lightweight. The return key is smaller than on a UK board, which I'm having to adapt to.

Great keyboard for Mac OS, it even works on an old 10.4 machine, although I have not tested it fully. The most basic functions work on 10.4 and 10.5. Not keen on the smaller enter key, but I have got used to it now.

Doesn’t feel comfortable when typing and the spring back on the keys feels strange so you keep typing wrong and have to redo. Would return if I could

Very soft and quiet no noise perfect exactly what I expected.

Teclado compatible con Mac mini, suena mucho las teclas, no prende el fico de indicador de tecla de mayúsculas. El cable usb muy largo por si esta lejos la mac. Por el precio me parece buena opción.

The single most reason I bought this keyboard is for mac compatibility. Apple discontinued their support for my iMac 2015 which I think is too early. Especially because I spent $3000 buying the iMac. When I lost the space bar functionality on my Mac keyboard, I went to the Apple store, and they told me that my iMac is "too old". And that the new magic keyboards don't care for my iMac. So I decided to look for a keyboard that works with Mac. In the meantime, I have had problems with bluetooth keyboard, for getting completely locked out of my own Mac if the keyboard fails for any reason. So I have been increasingly leaning towards USB wired keyboards. My first trip to Best Buy resulted in nothing other than gaming keyboards, which happen to be very expensive, and secondly do not work, unless you install some crazy key mapping tool software like Better Touch. I am totally against spending money to mask out a problem originally created by Apple itself. Sell me a bad keyboard, then ask me to spent money to buy software that fixes it, and this software has a recurring fee. For this reason I do not recommend the Better Touch tool.This brings to my journey that ended with ordering the Macally keyboard which I should I have done in the first place. But I did not know it existed until I searched for it on Amazon. As per Best Buy, most USB keyboards work only with Windows. But Macally works with Mac too, and that is the main reason to buy this keyboard. But there are a few other reasons.The main reason is that the function keys work! I do not need to install any software to make the function keys work. I am mainly interested in the brightness and volume keys. I tried everything they mentioned on fixing this with the other keyboards, and ultimately had to use the Better Touch tool to make it work. I do not support this purchase of additional software just to get basic keys working. It's honestly a Mac problem and not my problem. I call it poor design and also greed on the part of Apple to keep selling you new devices and make you get rid of your 5 year old iMac. However Macally solves all these problems. You do not need to change any settings on the Mac to make the keyboard work. It works right out of the box. Just hook it up to your iMac and you are ready to go! The placement of the keys is also consistent with the original Mac keyboard which is good. It's much easier to communicate and work with others when your keyboard has the same keys that they do and in the same location.The Macally keyboard even though wired is not noisy like a mechanical keyboard. I think it is a very superior technology. I have used many keyboards, and I love the Macally keyboard. In fact, I am using it to type this review right now, so you can trust my instinct that this is fine technology.The third reason I like this keyboard is that the keys have a definite positive deterministic click snap spring feedback. So even the visually impaired can be fairly certain they have typed the key. It might take a few minutes to get used to the keys. But after that you are flying through the keyboard like you have never been.I am not a fan of the Mac color schemes, but I do like the Macally keyboard arrives in the white color, which does not make it stand out as a different device.The reason for the low ergonomic rating though is that this keyboard is not backlit. I really needed that feature. How much does an LED cost, they could have just done that. As far as brightness I am not sure what they mean, but it is white if not bright. Yes, there is no backlit keyboard for sure again, so it is not bright. The other reason for the ergonomic rating is that the keyboard definitely is not flat. It rocks back and forth as you type. It may not be leveled correctly. So I have to use a padding underneath to soften the noise it makes while I type.There is no Fn key, but you do not need it for most cases. You could use a Mac setting to fix it perhaps.I also get the Numeric keypad which is about $40 for the Apple magic keyboard. You could get two Macallys for that price. Don't waste your money on a "magic" keyboard. You don't need it especially if it is not working for you.

The keys are quiet, which I really like. The keyboard is not chunky like the mechanical ones, but not super flat like the Mac ones. All the keys function well with my MacBook Pro and there are no hard to press keys. The only downside of this keyboard is that when you are using the all caps, no light comes on to let you know that it’s in all caps mode or not. Aside from that, the keyboard is everything I was looking for.If you just need a keyboard that works and you type a lot, I would recommend this keyboard.

Achtung! Amerikanische Tastenanordnung! Keine Umlaute!

Soft touch keys, very good for my MacBook Pro
