“EDIT: UPDATED TO 5 STARS BECAUSE I WAS MAKING A MISTAKE. For some reason, I cannot read properly and did not realize the switch on the far left of the KB is how you manually switch which input you're using to connect the KB. I switched it from wired to dongle…”

Critique
“The keyboard has been great but when I received it a couple keys were broken. I had to glue the inside connector back together as it had broken apart. Otherwise the keyboard has functions very well.”
