For those who prefer something more for desktop use, Satechi also has a Slim X3 Keyboard, which has the same design but with a numeric keyboard and additional function keys. Both versions are available with a Bluetooth connection or a wired connection.
The keys are backed up with 10 levels of adjustable brightness, and several Bluetooth connections are supported so you can switch between Mac, iPad, and iPhone with just the push of a button. There are macOS and iOS function keys, and a USB-C port is included to recharge the keyboard.
