The headphone jack is very convenient, but I don't like the design of the earbuds that come with it. It's nice to be able to control the TV's power and volume via infrared, and it's easy to set up too.

Bought this for a client to use at home in place of a an old MacBook Pro. It's very fast and quiet. Very similar design and interface to the older models, which makes it easier for a lot of folks who already like MacBooks. I'm not personally a fan of Apple, but if you're looking for a MacBook, this model with M1 is far better than the old ones with Intel chips.

I've installed many of these and had no problems. They've been awesome for upgrading computers that are still on conventional hard drives. They're fast, and a reasonable capacity for many people.

It causes my phone to make a loud high-pitched noise. I tried two of them, and they both did the same thing. My phone is perfectly fine, and I can charge it with many other adapters and battery packs with no issue. I also tried swapping cables. Something has to be wrong with the power these things give out, and I'm concerned that it could damage my phone. I just noticed another reviewer reported the same thing too.

It's generally a nice keyboard for getting things done.
The solar charging works well, and it has stable keys.
The problem is it will not register certain keypress combinations that are common in games. For example, the three keys A + Left arrow + Up arrow.

Good for gaming?

I am interested in this keyboard for travel, but would like to know if it has a good enough response time for gaming.

Thanks in advance~!
I would NOT recommend this keyboard for gaming. I don't know about the response time, but it has issues registering certain key combinations. For example, it does not register if you press the Up, Left and A keys at the same time. And I can think of MANY games that require that exact combination.
