Review: Great Customer Service - Keyboard DOES work with Raspberry Pi 3 Model B - If you read my previous review, ignore it. I received a defective keyboard, as the replacement works just fine as a basic keyboard for my Raspberry Pi 3 using RASPIAN PIXEL out of the box. The function keys don't appear to work out of the box on a basic PIXEL install, but that's fine; it'd be a nice bonus but certainly neither expected nor anything I'd deduct a star for. It's quite light, and pretty easy to type on for a keyboard of that size. The light does turn off after a few seconds, but it comes back on when you start using the keyboard. The delay I experienced previously, and the shutting off after a few seconds, is not present in the second one. The first one, the one with the problem, was received in a brown box. The second one, which is working fine, came in a white and grey box with a cellophane window on the front of the package. While the brown box looks nice and is evocative of quality, and the white/grey box seems cheap, the keyboards appear identical and are attractive in their own right. It looks very much like brushed black anodized aluminum, but they are actually plastic yet they don't feel flimsy nor cheaply made. The backlighting has several options, not just the three primary colors, and are very nice. At $20, I'd be pleased with the purchase for a tablet or for a home entertainment center that didn't need a mouse or touchpad. For my Raspberry Pi project, it's not quite what I need (frankly it's too easy to steal) but it does work for its basic functions on it just fine. ARTECK has fantastic customer service, which solidly placed the new keyboard in 5-star territory. They care about the product and the feedback they receive. On their own they replaced the keyboard immediately after seeing my first review without waiting for a replacement. I cannot comment on the battery life, but other keyboards I have had with this type have had battery lives measured - at a minimum - of several hours if not days, and standby batteries of months on end. I do expect the same of this keyboard even with the backlight since the backlight does turn off quickly. [Previous UPDATE: added a star for customer service. On their own, ARTECK responded with a code to replace the keyboard quickly to replace the first one I have. As soon as it arrives, I will charge it and see if it works with the Raspberry Pi. I promised to update this as soon as I know. ]
Review: Lightweight and pairs quickly out of box - This keyboard is very light and I purchased it mainly for home use because I am a touch typist and find the virtual keyboards of my phone too slow and annoying for proper sentences. So far I have used the keyboard on my lap, in bed, and on a flat surface and have been very happy with this purchase. I had not planned to use it away from home, but it's so light and fits in so many bags that I am anxious to try it sometime soon. No cords or batteries or charging cables needed. The only "game" I have used this keyboard is online Spanish lessons like a game. I don't think bilingual typing is as easy as the Google Gboard virtual keyboard because of the diacritical marks and accents. The first time I stumbled about a bit trying to figure out how to do type in a different language more easily. I will have to make sticky notes with directions for myself because it's easy to forget, using Windows methods and I was a long-time Mac user. I think I would have preferred the Android method of long pressing keys to access symbols. It's another thing to get used to and doesn't make this keyboard a bad product at all. This keyboard paired easily with my phone out of the box. The instructions were easy to follow. I like the different backlight colors. It's a nice touch and for those that aren't touch typist's should make it easier to use in low lighting or in the dark. The "f" and "j" Keys have a little bump at the bottom so you know where to place your fingers. The function keys at the top will be they keys most difficult to see in the dark because some of those icons are very small. I do not recommend eating around this keyboard. The backlighting leaves enough of a gap under each and every keyboard that you will spend a lot of time cleaning crumbs out. If you plan to carry the keyboard about, I would keep the box it came in or get a case to protect it. It's lightweight and made in China. At this price, if it lasts the entire 2 year manufacturer's warranty period, it is a good bargain because the alternative is spending too much time trying to type on the virtual keyboard of my smartphone. That wasn't working for me. It's cordless and since already paired, just has to be turned on to use each time without hassle. I also like that I can use it on other Android devices as well as Windows and iOS if the occasion should arrise. This review was made much quicker with this keyboard and I haven't come across apps that have a problem with a physical keyboard so I guess the system takes care of that.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: My spacebar fell off how do i put it back?**
A: With glue if you didn’t buy directly from Arteck because they don’t honor the warranty otherwise. For instance, if you buy this from Amazon as used, Arteck dodges all responsibility then Amazon charges a restocking fee for orders past the return window of 30 days. If you bought from Arteck and it’s within 2 years of purchase for a remedy, you can ask for a replacement. I found all of this out the hard way.

**Q: Does this work on a PS4?**
A: Does the light have to work to have the key work?

**Q: how do i change the colors of the keyboard?**
A: It’s funny how unintuitive this is!! I have this same problem I use the keyboard and want to change color as I change it according to the device I’m using so I know it’s paired with it. The instruction booklet has this information in it though and if you Google the product and model number there is an online manual if yours didn’t come with one. It’s Function Key Fn and Alt, then up or down arrow key for each color. Easy right, but so hard to remember…

**Q: Does it work with an amazon firestick on a tv?**
A: It should if you can use other keyboards with it but many of the things that don’t work are often the fault of the other products poor interface which won’t work with any keyboard properly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ You get what you pay for
*by G***X on May 5, 2025*

Context: When I bought this keyboard, I was looking for a cheap Bluetooth keyboard to use in place of my laptop's keyboard. A few keys stopped working on my laptop keyboard, but the cost to repair was too high for just a few keys. I decided it would be better to buy a Bluetooth keyboard and just carry it with the laptop to use as the primary keyboard instead. I was looking for a keyboard small enough that it wouldn't be annoying to carry with me everywhere I have to use my laptop. I also wanted the keyboard to have backlighting because I often use my laptop in the dark at night, and I didn't want to have to flip a light switch just to use my keyboard. So, I ended up buying this Arteck Bluetooth keyboard because it was the most affordable keyboard with a lot of reviews and a good rating that still had all the features I wanted. Review: I got the keyboard back in October 2024. The setup process was easy; it connected to my laptop's Bluetooth right away, and all the lights and keys on the keyboard worked as intended. Battery life was pretty decent for the ~2 hours I used it every other day. I didn't find myself ever thinking that its battery life was too short. The keyboard is very light, which makes it really easy to carry around. The material of the keyboard is just a cheap plastic that is very flexible, but it has a brushed texture that still feels nice to the touch. Everything was fine until March 2025 (4 months later), when I started to notice that the micro-USB cable was a little hard to plug into the charging port. Then, in April, I was really struggling to plug in the charger one day, and when I pushed in the charging cable, the charging port broke. I opened up the back of the keyboard to see if I could salvage the charging port enough to just get the keyboard to charge again, but the port was simply too fragile and couldn't be fixed easily. After the charging port broke, I immediately picked up another keyboard with the same features I wanted, but this time I made sure to find one that had a well-built charging port. So, I decided to buy a USB Type-C Bluetooth keyboard this time. I wouldn't recommend this keyboard if you want something that is good quality and will last you more than a couple of months, but if you are just looking for a passable, affordable option that just gets the job done for at least a little while, then go for it. TL;DR short life span due to the micro-USB charging port breaking, build quality and materials match the price
