Hi everyone, hope you’re doing well. I have the latest generation iPad mini, I’m looking for a keyboard to use with it. I want the keyboard to be Bluetooth in about the size of oldschool Apple Bluetooth keyboards that used to have disposable batteries. Does anybody have any recommendations that would fit the bill? Thank you very much for your help everyone :-)

In fact this topic has been discussed a lot.

I use an iClever BK06 Bluetooth Keyboard that is foldable so it is small to transport but opens to a good size for typing. Plus it supports up to three bluetooth devices that you can hotkey between and works well with iOS, macOS, and Android devices.

Hi, I've just been reading about the BK06. How much does the layout of the BK06 different from theHow much does the layout of the BK06 differ from the regular Mac laptop keyboard layout?

The Fn and Control keys are swapped on the far left side and the Command and Option keys to the right of the space bar are combined into one key (Shift for Option). The rest of the keyboard is the same. Q W E keys have Fn functions to switch between three different devices and Fn+Z starts pairing mode. OS should be auto detected (Windows, iOS, or Android). The function keys (F1 to F12) are Fn paired with the numerics row of keys at the top of the keyboard.

So far this has been the keyboard I like the best of all the ones I've tried.
