UK Matias Wireless Aluminum Keyboard Silver

Great keyboard, nice action
All in all a great keyboard, faultless with Macbook Pro. Unlike some Mac peripherals it can be charged and used at the same time. This has dropped a star for one silly thing. The power button is in the wrong place, at the back of the keyboard. This means that by pushing the keyboard back into the Macbook actually switches the keyboard off! - Either a slide switch or putting the push button on the side/front would have been so much better.

Good weight and feel 5*, Price 3*
I was worried about the weight and feel of this keyboard compared to the original mac keyboard with a cable. But my worries were unnecessary;- this bluetooth keyboard from Matias feels good to type on, and the weight and design of the keyboard are very good compared to the original. Especially the aluminium frame is machined from solid, and not as with other bluetooth keyboards pressed from alu sheets.I'm happy to recommend the keyboard.The only detraction is the price; it is expensive compared to what's available if you're willing to forego the number pad :-|

Works very well, but not quite up to Apple's standard of build quality
The keyboard works very well, feels good and seems reliable.However, I must point out that my first impression upon taking it out of the box was not great. In the pictures, it looks almost identical to an Apple keyboard. But in real life, it clearly isn't up to the same standard of quality as an Apple product. There are a couple of minor scratches in the aluminium. The keys clearly don't sit centrally in their cutout holes, and some of them don't even sit flat. The printing on the keys isn't as sharp or elegant as Apple's either. And, with the UK keyboard layout, the enter button looks almost comically oversized, it's a bit weird. A real shame, considering it's MORE expensive than Apple's own offerings.I debated sending it back, but gave it a go anyway, and have ended up keeping it, because, for now, the pros of having a wireless keyboard with numeric pad outweigh the cons of the keyboard's slightly haphazard appearance.If you're as fussy and astute in your observations as I am, it'll always leave you a bit disappointed. If you just want something that works and looks close to the real thing, you'll love it!
