Bottom Line

A lightweight, pocket-sized keyboard that opens flat and pairs easily with mobile devices for convenient typing on the go.

Pros

Smaller than an iPhone and weighing less than half a pound, owners love its portability. The 2 pairs of hinges don't interfere with typing. Made from rugged aircraft aluminum. Battery lasts up to 40 days.

Cons

The compact layout means typists have to adjust to a different key layout. Though not sturdy enough for typing on one's lap, the attachable silicone pads prevent sliding on a tabletop.

Bottom Line

Great for touch typists and those with larger hands, but the full size of the keyboard means additional weight.

Pros

The full-sized keys placed in a typical layout makes this comparable to typing on a standard computer keyboard. Pairs easily over Bluetooth and also connects to devices via USB. Comes with a case that folds into phone or tablet stand.

Cons

At almost 1 pound and 1' long, this keyboard is much larger than others, though still portable.

Bottom Line

The smallest keyboard we tested with the longest-lasting battery – a great value for this price.

Pros

This ultra-portable model weighs only 5 ounces and the battery can last 2 months on standby following a 2-hour charge. Includes a case that doubles as a stand for phones and tablets, elevating them like a screen for easier typing.

Cons

The slightly different key layout and gap down the center may create a learning curve for touch typists.

Bottom Line

This backlit keyboard boasts a long-lasting battery, nice-feeling keys, and a track pad.

Pros

We like the weight of the keys and the durable design. Backlighting can be dimmed or turned off. A full charge of the battery provides 48 hours of typing and lasts 3 weeks on standby.

Cons

The track pad doesn't work with iOS devices, and owners used to a mouse had trouble maneuvering it. At 10 ounces, it's a little heavier than others and didn't comfortably accommodate larger hands.

Bottom Line

A compact accessory that fits into a back pocket yet opens to a full-sized keyboard.

Pros

Weighing only 6 ounces, this portable model opens like a book to reveal a full-sized keyboard with a standard key layout. Expert touch typists report a seamless adjustment to the split design. Battery charges in only 2 hours.

Cons

Doesn't pair with Windows-powered phones, and some owners report it drops Bluetooth connections. Keys are less sensitive than on a standard keyboard.
