"This is something that I was looking for, a quiet, but comfortable Mac-first keyboard. This is what I was hoping for. The clicky switches aren't that loud, but they provide a nice tactile experience, and pleasant typing performance. I wish that I could change the layout and move the "fn" key to an alternate location, but I'm nitpicking.The build is very solid and I like that they kept the style of their previous mechanical keyboard; the wired full sized that is no longer in production.Depending on the office setting you may be in, this would be perfectly appropriate for small cubicles, or more spread out offices. Quiet open concept offices may still not accommodate this keyboard, but as I type in a quite area of my office with people around me, there was no complaints (I asked).It's lightweight, but doesn't feel light, it's has nice shine through keycaps, and I think that I will be getting quite a bit of use with this keyboard for quite some time.Just so you all know where I'm coming from. I'm a mechanical keyboard enthusiast and have about 6 mechanical keyboards that I have built or bought (Nuphy, Keychron, Tofu 60, etc.) of all sizes, weights and styles, and as my daily work keyboard, this has taken top billing, and I actually have a Nuphy low-profile keyboard at the moment (air 65), this is far more stable, better QA and has the lineage to back up quality.Thank you Macally for making yet another winner of a keyboard. I was initially sad when I couldn't by my mechanical keyboard from you, but the timing could not have been better to launch this TLK 75% beauty"

I really liked this keyboard. I am not a heavy typer, just a casual user. It gave me everything I was looking for: backlit keys, wireless, mechanical keys, and small footprint, plus white color that goes with my iMac. Seriously I was looking for such combo for so long and had practically given up on multiple occasions. So when I found this for such a great price I ordered immediately and was really happy to see such a good quality. I have faced no issues with it. It works flawlessly. My satisfaction prompted my to write this review and I was surprised that it wasn't rated that well on Amazon. Perhaps other people had a different experience. However I would certainly recommend it.james spearman iii

So I’ve had no connection or keyboard recognition issues with it. I have an M2 Mac mini and it’s worked perfectly.It feels good and weighty and the noise level is just right. Build feels good and keys have a light tactile feedback that is actually like a little more of.Overall I definitely recommend the keyboard and my only real feedback is they need to do a full size!rona r

intermittent disconnect and connects to same device with second bluetooth antenna (has three). It can connect to three different devices but connects to same device twice causing typing errors, this is worse keyboard I have ever had but is well made and strong. lights sometimes turn off with no explanation. sometimes it doesn't respond and suddenly connects and types by itself, other times it gives me option for selecting special keys but I didn't ask for that at all.....robert buccino

Touch and feel are good and aesthetically the keyboard is pleasant to look at. Unfortunately the keyboard could not be recognized by any of my (many) Mac units and tips for pairing I found online were outdated (there’s no System preferences, only Settings) and non-useful. Hoping a replacement unit works. Update: replacement unit works fine, instructions for pairing were easy to follow.ceeveedee

Works great for what it is. These usually come with 2.4GHZ USB receivers, but this one doesn'tconnects easily to my Mac mini m2 and my PC fine.The only issue is that the Caps Lock button isn't responsive sometimes, i have a habit of pressing Caps Lock to capitalize letters instead of Shift. thats the only Key that has an issues as far as ive tested it works but if you press it constantly, you might have to slow down a bit other than that worked without updates or anything from any other comments.The tactile switches are lighter than standered Cherry mx blues its like Temu version, still click,y not as loud not complaining here.What Customers Talk About
