CHERRY KW 9200 MINI

Great mobile membrane keyboard. I wish it had some kind of backlight, but otherwise I can't complain. The build quality is nice, it's a little heavy, and the battery life is super long

You pair the Cherry KW9200 with a code the first time, but after that, it pairs automatically when the keyboard is turned on. It is very solidly constructed, and the key labels are embossed, which ought to ensure the labels don't wear off with use - like several other keyboards I've had.The keys are concave in shape which helps to center your fingers on the keys for accurate typing. The F1 through F12 keys have an alternate function that can be toggled but they are standard Win11 functions, not in the same order as used by Apple on the iPad - but I seldom use those functions anyway. The keys are not lighted, but the labels are very clear (white on black). The dual function keys such as ? / and : ; have the placement vertically. Some keyboards place the double function labels horizontally. I prefer the vertical placement; it's easier to read and less confusing.The typing feel is fine. There's more vertical travel than in most Bluetooth keyboards, but not as much as my HyperX Alloy Core Membrance Gaming Keyboard. It comes with a travel case which is nice to have. It was a good purchase.

I travel often and require connectivity to multiple devices at times. This keyboard is amazing as it supports connectivity with a USB cable, a dongle adapter, and 2 bluetooth devices. It is sturdy and a good typing experience, especially for such a low profile keyboard. The battery life is great as well.

I love the keyboard's size and weight. It has a good key layout and feel. Battery life is fantastic and connectivity seems solid.So why only 3 stars? After a couple months of use, the keyboard seems to have developed a very touchy Win key that fires if I even tap the table next to the keyboard. I contacted the seller. who directed me to work with the manufacturer for 'troubleshooting'. I am hoping for a replacement since I don't think this is user error. Still trying to work through that process to determine if I got a flaky KB or what. Will update this if the situation changes.

Simple and solid keyboard for office and home, but definitely not for gaming. It can easily switch between multiple devices. I have bought 2 of these keyboards.

Buen producto, solo dos detalles a mi me llegó en una caja sellada pero con huellas o marcas de manipulación con manos sucias llenas de aceite, luego de limpiar muy bien el teclado y el cable se ve bien, el otro detalle es que cuando lo sujetas cruje un poco. Cómo recomendación hay que cargarlo la primera vez por completo con un cargador dedicado si no se descarga rápido la batería, luego de eso la duración de la batería es aceptable. La sensación del teclado es muy buena y silencioso. Lo recomiendo.

Off the bat, I'll say that I'm not a keyboard snob. I have quite a few keyboards with different switches and keycaps, etc. I have fun exploring the budget end of the hobby, but for my go to keyboards for work, I step out of the hobby realm. I do like my keyboards on the compact side, anywhere from 60% to 70% seems to fit my needs very well. I do like having cordless choices in a pinch, but I also like to have a wired option. Lastly, I'm not picky about key feel, other than it can't be too mushy and vague.This keyboard ticks all the boxes, and ticks them really well. It has a USB-C connector to charge, and to use in wired mode. It support not only bluetooth, but it comes with an RF dongle too. The key feel is just right for a scissor based keyboard. It doesn't feel mushy, it's not too loud, and the keys inspire enough confidence to keep mistakes to a minimum. I was concerned about the Fn key location (to the right of the right shift key), but those fears were unfounded. I have never mistakenly hit the Fn key.There a few minor compromises for being such a compact keyboard. The up and down direction keys are half keys, but at least they're stacked on top of each other. Insert/Home/End/PgUp/PgDn are behind an Fn press, but that's to be expected of a keyboard this size. Having the top row of F keys is nice, I do miss them on my Drop Alt keyboard. The keyboard does flex a little bit, and is made completely from plastic. This is an acceptable compromise to keep the weight in check.Some additional features... it comes in a nice lyrca case. It has flip out feet to adjust the angle to a more typable position. It comes with a USB-A to USB-C cable, but I'm using a coiled cable that I was using with my Drop Alt. It is listed as "Designed in Germany" but "Manufactured in China". That's the norm these days, and this does seem to be of very high quality.The last point, is the price fair? I have some old Logitech 810 keyboads which were my goto portable keyboards. They are bluetooth only, and are old enough that they only have microUSB connectors. At the time I bought them years ago, they were priced higher than this keyboard. However, they did have metal tops, and generally felt slightly higher quality. It also had backlit keys, which was a nice touch (this keyboard is not backlit). This keyboard offers a lot of great connectivity options (one RF, two bluetooth, one wired) that I think you would be hard pressed to find in a brand name keyboard at this price.

I’ve been using this keyboard for three weeks and really like it. It is the most solid and well-built mini keyboard I’ve ever used. However, for those that love and demand Cherry mechanical switches, sorry. This keyboard uses Cherry SX switches. The Cherry describes the Cherry SX as a “membrane contact switches with elastomer dome and scissor mechanics".As a reference point, my daily driver keyboard is a Filco Majestouch. So, yeah, I’m pretty demanding when it comes to keyboard quality and I absolutely approve this Cherry mini keyboard. It is a solid little thing and the key action is very good. It has caused me no drama and is great for cramped setting like typing in a lounge chair, in a racing simulator, and on a messy messy desk that doesn’t have much flat surface available.
