1
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:14,360
now you guys gave me a really hard time when I unboxed that uh that keyboard

2
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:17,520
that had the built-in iPhone dock that you could make you could use your iPhone

3
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:23,000
as a touchpad and the keyboard or you could use the keyboard to type on your

4
00:00:19,439 --> 00:00:25,920
iPhone well here is a more PC oriented

5
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:30,039
product it's not expensive compared to the other one it has a Windows logo

6
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:36,480
right on it it has a limited lifetime warranty and this is for the multimedia

7
00:00:32,439 --> 00:00:39,600
PC as well so this guy has a keyboard

8
00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:41,719
and a touchpad built into it it uses

9
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:45,360
Bluetooth it has six internet hot Keys 14 embedded media keys and on the back

10
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:49,719
let's see some other product features here okay six internet hot keys and 14

11
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:54,160
media Keys okay connecting a hot switch

12
00:00:52,199 --> 00:00:59,079
between six toast devices that's interesting all right what else do we

13
00:00:56,039 --> 00:01:02,120
got here operating distance operating oh

14
00:00:59,079 --> 00:01:03,239
wow up to 33 that's not bad that's uh

15
00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:07,119
going to work pretty much anywhere inside your house in theory so keystroke

16
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:13,799
life is 10 million all this good stuff you know what let's just get this baby opened up because this is from AO this

17
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:20,640
is actually which model is this ah okay so this is the KB 337 BP and this is the

18
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:25,000
kind of product that I would use that I would quite enjoy we've had stuff like

19
00:01:23,079 --> 00:01:29,320
this on the market for a long time actually but a lot of it has been cost

20
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:34,119
prohibitive as you guys pointed out to me when when I unboxed that other

21
00:01:31,079 --> 00:01:36,040
product that was like $100 for what was

22
00:01:34,119 --> 00:01:42,920
essentially a keyboard that had a dock on it so I do

23
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:44,439
see your point this guy is quite a bit

24
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:49,320
cheaper and comes with batteries it's wireless

25
00:01:48,159 --> 00:01:56,320
that was the other problem with the other one is it wasn't Wireless you actually needed wired power for it so I

26
00:01:53,880 --> 00:02:00,119
understand that complaint as well although I have been using it and is it

27
00:01:58,159 --> 00:02:06,680
is it is it is pretty decent for my purposes so let's plug this guy

28
00:02:03,119 --> 00:02:09,319
in there we are that's pretty much the

29
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:12,720
entire setup process and let's have a look at the physical keyboard itself so

30
00:02:10,920 --> 00:02:16,360
it's quite light which is nice because when you're sitting on the couch you

31
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:20,280
know you're like this you got a keyboard on your lap you don't want some big old

32
00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:24,560
heavy thing it's also actually this the curvature is good as well so you can see

33
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:28,800
how it goes from flat and it angles down a little bit to be curved so what that

34
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:32,519
means is that you are leaning forward a little bit to to type on the keyboard or

35
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,920
like your your hands are like this and then to use the touchpad you're you're

36
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:42,720
coming up like this which is actually very natural Okay so we've got um really

37
00:02:39,959 --> 00:02:47,360
are those are those touch sensitive cool so we've got a bunch of hot Keys here we

38
00:02:44,959 --> 00:02:53,480
have all of your usual kinds of media keys so we've got uh play pause forward

39
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:56,080
back stop volume up volume down uh you

40
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:59,440
can that looks like locking the touchpad so that's kind of handy as well now in

41
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:04,640
terms of the key quality it's about what I would expect it's um about what you

42
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:08,400
would see on an average kind of laptop

43
00:03:04,640 --> 00:03:10,799
so very short travel distances fairly

44
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:14,000
quiet so if you're up late watching TV or watching YouTube videos on your on

45
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:17,120
your television on your media PC or whatever the case may be then you're

46
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:20,920
probably not going to be disturbing anybody if you're typing on this it is a

47
00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:26,799
Bluetooth keyboard so you will need a receiver uh bear that in mind you guys

48
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:28,760
it does not come with a receiver

49
00:03:26,799 --> 00:03:31,120
and yeah I think that's pretty much all there is to say about it one thing that

50
00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:36,720
really stands out to me about it though is it has a a really nice brush finish

51
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:41,120
here so it makes it look kind of sharp because the thing about a media keyboard

52
00:03:38,239 --> 00:03:45,439
is it's probably you know if you're if you're kids or relatives or anything

53
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:48,319
like the people that I know you know this is going to end up just kind of

54
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,280
thrown on the couch after people are done watching TV and it's going to kind

55
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:55,480
of sit there so you want it to look pretty decent uh rather than just you

56
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:58,799
know being like some beige thing that doesn't have a nice finish on it because

57
00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:02,120
people are going to see it when they come over potentially

58
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:07,840
I think that's pretty much all there is to say about it why don't we just get some closer product shots at this so you

59
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:12,159
guys can see what's involved and let me just have a look at

60
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:15,560
uh here's a little instruction quick important information actually thing so

61
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:21,320
why don't I tell you about this while you while you kind of check out the keyboard here check it out from that

62
00:04:18,199 --> 00:04:23,720
Angle now so you can

63
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:27,479
um press here to enable disable use of the touchpad so yeah that is indeed what

64
00:04:25,280 --> 00:04:30,800
this does to pair multiple bluetooth devices all you have to do is press and

65
00:04:29,479 --> 00:04:35,120
hold the reset button until the connection LED is blinking then use your device's Bluetooth utility and search

66
00:04:33,759 --> 00:04:39,759
and connect to the keyboard so it's kind of a Bluetooth Hub which is also kind of

67
00:04:37,280 --> 00:04:46,840
neat you just press function and then the number you used when pairing the

68
00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:49,320
device oh cool to to pair two devices 1

69
00:04:46,840 --> 00:04:54,919
to six so that's kind of neat it's good to read documentation okay next we have

70
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:58,680
uh the pairing guide for the keyboard and then we also have this is actually

71
00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:02,440
really neat it comes with a diagram most keyboards expect you to just kind of

72
00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:06,680
stumble your way through it so this gives you a diagram of what all of the

73
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:10,479
keys here are bound to by default a pairing guide you've got this reference

74
00:05:08,199 --> 00:05:16,280
sheet okay if you are buying this product for your parents for example my

75
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:22,240
parents they're not techsavvy at all so what I would do is I would take this

76
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:25,600
guide and I would tape it down inside

77
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:27,840
the drawer of their TV stand and then

78
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:33,039
it's there forever so that way if anyone calls me o the touch pad's not working

79
00:05:30,759 --> 00:05:37,759
and I say okay press the function oh what's the function key oh the FN key

80
00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:42,280
the one the blue one but all the keys are black no the one with the blue text

81
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:47,600
well there's a bunch with blue text the one with the blue text that says function but it says FN see I'm trying

82
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:53,800
to diagnose this over the phone so I don't have the keyboard in front of me right so I don't have to explain it all

83
00:05:51,319 --> 00:05:57,240
I have to say is hey go look at the piece of paper I taped it there for a

84
00:05:55,080 --> 00:06:00,960
reason so that's actually really handy I appreciate that it cost them almost

85
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:05,639
nothing to print out this piece of paper but it's very useful and finally we have

86
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:08,759
a quick start guide which looks like it covers how to put in the batteries

87
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:14,080
pretty much all right so thank you for checking out my unboxing of this
