    Added this numeric keypad to the desktop and it’s right at home. Having it detached allowed me to place it where I needed it. Perfect weight & size, not-too-bright LCD, color-coded keys & a soft USB cable make this keypad a welcomed addition. Excellent value for a quality numeric keypad. Calculator mode makes this one a must-have.

    It magnetically attaches to the keyboard! Makes it exactly what I need, numpad and main keyboard with all the modern keys and macro keys. Get both, amazing combination. First time I bought a keyboard specifically, rather than using whatever came with the PC/Mac. Build in calc is nice. NumLock on/off (CAL + C) and Bt/2.3 compatibility! Going to get another pair for home.

    In 2.4ghz or usb mode everything works perfectly, but in bluetooth mode it ignores the first keystroke after it goes into sleep mode. It’s quite irritating.

    Other than that, it’s a pretty great piece of hardware!

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersSo I’ll start this by saying I have absolutely no need for this product. I just like retro style things and sometimes like to use a standalone calc not on my PC so this was something I couldn’t pass up. I actually was contemplating returning it but every time I look at it I decide to keep it even I just use it as a show piece. The build is solid and expected from 8bitdo. Everything works and I would recommend this product.

    Golden Review Award: 4 From Our UsersHaving worked at IBM (twice) I can say that it’s not the best company. However, they did make the best keyboards. I’ve been on the same Model M for over 30 years. Although this isn’t the same layout as the original it’s good enough.

    Pros:
    – Authentic look
    – Gimmicky built in calc is a hit with friends and family. Buy this thing. Use it as your calc at school or work. Instant credibility!
    – Dedicated calc launcher button is an upgrade for me.
    – Proper colors (even down to the USB cable being the right color)
    – Adding backspace is great idea.
    – Losing numlock also totally makes sense.

    Neutral:
    – Minus (-) being moved will probably never be noticed in my use (but maybe).

    Cons:
    – Did I really need BT/2.4GHz? At least there is a cool dial.

    For sure worth it. Get one while you can. Great job 8bitdo!

    One upgrade every 30 years. Totally worth it.
