Today I received a parcel from hong kong. The guys over at Deal Extreme get their stuff from there.
I got this Bluetooth keyboard for about 20 Euros. And I know you could get it cheaper elsewhere. But Hey w.t.h right ?
So let`s start the review of this thingie.
Bluetooth supported (but as you can see not much blue there)
Dimensions
With 5.5 Inch
Length 2.8 Inch
Height 0.3 Inch
The reason I got this device is the crappy OSSK on the HTC HD2 it works but really you have to be cairfull and concentrate.
For real. when sending text messages I still get remarks/replies like “what does rttfllg mean” and puud day to you to”
So got the thing, unwrapped it. Flipped in 2 aaa batteries.
Now on the upper right on the keyboard is a little button that says “connect” For those of you who still believe Bluetooth is some kind of magic “like the replicators of the enterprise” and works right out of the box, you`re wrong !!
Right, that said. Press the button and go to your mobile, pc, whatever. And start searching for devices. It should find a device named “keyboard” (how convenient)
When you select it it will initiate the pairing process. And you get the messages that you have to type some random code on your freshly unwrapped keyboard from honkong.
It has a led at the front that indicates it is in pairing mode, and it stops flashing when pairing is successful
And than its DONE.. gratzz
This is the back of the device, nice and sturdy. Here you can see the battery compartment for two triple A batteries.
The annoying on off switch, which is by far, too small and the only way to switch the thing on and off is by some kind of pin or a key.
Also you can see the 4 rubber studs. And they aren’t made out of rubber but it’s a cheap cloth kind of material. So don’t expect this device to say where it is supposed to stay.
And the name OMG IRXON ?? really, we got something here that is a brand of cheap knock off stuff called XIRON.
Just take a look at this, its nicely crafted and a pleasure to work with. It does ! It fits nicely in my hands and I can reach all the buttons with my thumbs.
The keyboard.
There is one thing only one thing that could be better. And that would be the keys itself. The keys are made out of soft rubber.
So it doesn’t feel right when typing (or maybe it`s just a matter of getting used to)
OK lets sum this all up.
It does what it`s supposed to do. It`s CHEAP. WE love it over here !! It`s great if you use this for your media center of whatever as a great remote.
This Keyboard deserves A BEST BUY from our guys at TechNOdama.
RATING 8
it would have been higher, but we all dint liked the rubber keys that much. But still a great job !!
