SpecPicks Verdict

SpecPicks scored Macally Bluetooth Tablet Keyboard using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the accessories category. Macally's accessories lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this keyboard work with my iPad Pro and my Android phone?

Yes. It connects over Bluetooth to iPad mini, iPad Pro, Android tablets, and smartphones, and it can stay paired with up to 3 devices at once so you can switch between them.

Does it come with a stand, or do I need to buy one separately?

The stand is built in. A 10.5-inch slot on the keyboard body holds your phone or tablet upright, so there is no extra accessory to buy or pack.

Does it use AA batteries or does it recharge?

It recharges. The keyboard has a built-in 280mAh rechargeable battery, so there are no disposable batteries to replace. Check the product listing for the included cable and charging details.

How many keys does it have, and is it a full-size layout?

It has 78 keys plus 13 shortcut keys and LED indicators. That is a compact layout designed to save desk space, not a full-size board with a separate number pad.

Is it quiet enough to use in an office or on a plane?

It is built around quiet keys specifically for shared spaces. The slim, portable body is intended for travel use.
