Fantastic numberpad with built in calculator.
I love this little number pad. The retro look is super cool and the functionality is great. The keys feel amazing. They have a very satisfying click and the fact that you can switch it into just a calculator mode and then right back to a number pad for the PC is nice and works seamlessly. Highly recommended!

Aesthetic, functional and fun!
Product arrive earlier than planned in a well taken care of package.it is super functional and helpful (I do a lot of accounting at work) - that it doubles as a calculator is a total plus for me - and it also comes with built-in games! The screen is amazingly readable.it is very satisfying to use, and also very aesthetically pleasing for those who like vintage looks.On the plus side, if you don't like clicky switches, this numpad is hot-swappable, another bonus by the manufacturer.It definitely feels sturdy and seems to be - taking it at work everyday and not an issue in sight.Hits all the positives for me! I recommend!

A great add-on to a great keyboard
You can get the 8bitdo keyboard as a full-length board these days, so it really isn't required to buy this anymore. The reason I did anyways was for three reasons:1. This has a small, subtle magnet that helps it sit beside the main keyboard, and the two pieces sit pretty cleanly beside each other so there's not a noticeable difference.2. Because of this, you can have the comfort of a full keyboard with the added convenience of being able to relocate the numpad elsewhere if you'd like, which makes it more versatile for different purposes. It supports bluetooth and also comes with a USB dongle (with a built-in slot for it), so it's very convenient.3. I just think the little calculator screen is so cool.Buy the full keyboard version if you want to have a more normal keyboard experience. Buy this if you want to be able to type 80085 on your numpad and have it show up in little glowing LEDs. You know what to do.

I like it a lot
Ultimate numb pad. The battery lasts forever. It connects automatically. It works with an iMac and the keys are replaceable. I only wish it had an RGB but it’s very good for the price considering it has a built-in calculator.

Exceeded expectations by a lot 🤙🏽
The media could not be loaded. Build quality is nice, switches feel accurate and punchy. Top 3 buttons don’t feel amazing but shouldn’t need to use them super often. Screen is far better than expected. No bleeding or extra glow. Feels actually retro. Entire unit is lighter than expected , I wish it had a bit more weight to it, but honestly nitpicking because I can’t find much I don’t like. Bluetooth hooked up instantly to my iPhone for testing and worked with zero noticeable latency. The 2.4 hz dongle hides in the back magnetically so I almost thought they forgot it. Also works perfectly. I have yet to try the software to rebind keys but will update review when I do. Did not try wired mode because why would I, but the cable they sent with it feels wayyy more premium than I expected. My Toyota legit came with worse cables. Hotswapped a switch just to make sure I could. Easy peasy. Will likely buy 2 more for work and my wife, at this price the value is just plain better than Keychron which is what I really wanted.

Neat accessory for the retroheads.
If you're getting it for bragging rights or showing off the mancave, it's cool. If for functionality, it works as expected except the keys don't allow it for quick data entry without retraining your fingers/brain. Also, there is a magnetic side where it sticks to the c64 keyboard but feels clunky. In retrospect I should have bought the mouse instead for function. But what can I say, it acts as both a functional numpad and stand-alone calculator.

I am a fan. This totally reminds me of the big calculator that used to be at my dad's mechanic shop growing up. I like the clicking. I like that it could be hard connected, Bluetooth, or USB. You can also use this as a standalone calculator versus on the computer. It is nice and thick. Feels like a sturdy piece of desk equipment. I am extremely happy with this and it matches my Nintendo keyboard perfectly.

Looks and clacks very satisfying!
As a keyboard enthusiast, I always actually used the numpad so I'd shy away from anything not either full-sized or 1800 layout. Recently bought an HE keyboard on sale but it is TKL, so still wanted a numpadLooks retro, works well and has a nice "clickity clack" to it from clicky switches. I use it wired, but the calculator function and wireless options are definitely very nice.
