(Backlit Version)Rii RK707 3 in 1 Multifunctional 2.4GHz Wireless Portable Game Controller 62-Key Rechargeable Keyboard Mouse Combo Turbo Vibration Function for PC/Raspberry pi2/Android TV Google/TV B

I purchased this to use with my Tivo Stream 4k, which I later replaced with an Nvidia Shield (more on that later).First,WHAT I LIKE:-Keyboard/trackpad and gamepad all in one-USB Dongle (BT connections just can't compare to USB dongled devices)-Compatibility. This works with any device that can take input from a keyboard, mouse, or gamepad.WHAT COULD BE IMPROVED:-I'd love to see a place to store the USB Dongle. Something like this is handy to keep in my backpack, but USB dongles are easy to lose. I love it when a device has a place to store the USB Dongle in it.-Keyboard responsiveness.MY REVIEW:This will work with pretty much any device you can plug a USB dongle into, but I think it comes in most handy when being used with an Android TV box, especially if you already wish you had a keyboard.Alot of Android TV apps have made pairing the TV app with your account fairly simple, but not all.Some still require you to enter a login and password, so that makes the keyboard a must have.Beyond that, if you're like me, and access media from various location on your network, often requiring credentials, and entering IP addresses, then just go ahead and buy this right now.The first time you have to enter credentials with this, you'll be satisfied you purchased it.The gamepad, is very responsive. The ergonomics are good, considering what it offers, and does this while trying to remain compact, and the fact that there's an entire keyboard on the other size.There are many of these devices and you'll notice most of them don't exceed 4 stars.Don't let that hold you back like It did me for awhile before I finally "splurged" on this one.When you use it, you can see why no one really raves about these devices, but at the same time, you're so glad you got it.No, it's not as good as typing with a real keyboard, but a real keyboard is huge by comparison, and any decent keyboard is going to cost twice this device. You may sometimes find yourself having to retype a key, but it's still waaaaay faster than pushing arrow keys multiple times on an AndroidTV remote to get to each letter.No, it's not as good as a PS or XBX controller, but it's half the price, and has a full keyboard on the other side.For under $30, to have all of this functionality, that's small enough to be stored with your TV remotes, but capable enough to type, and game, that's a bargain.There's a part of me that wonders what if the manufacturer decided to make a premium version of this? What could they do with say, double the budget?Something important to note:This will work as a keyboard, AND a gamepad on ALL Android TV devices . . . except Nvidia Shield.On the Shield, you can ONLY use the keyboard.If you switch over to the gamepad function, it will not work, unless you choose to use Bluetooth, which is not ideal for low latency.This is NOT the manufacturer's fault, as I've tried other USB dongled controllers, including an official XBX controller, and none of them would work with the Shield.This is by design since Nvidia wants you to use their shield controller, not your own.Lastly, my seller was BoomTek and I wanted to shout out because I lost my USB dongle last month and they sent me another one and even told me how to pair my device to the new dongle. Great customer support.

Now, when you buy something like this, you need to come in it with the proper expectations. Is this going to be amazing? NO, it's tiny, but instead of having to whip out a massive keyboard and mouse to navigate your smart tv, android/apple/htpc/pi/whatnot you have this thing. Gets the basics done, and has a decent controller on the back side as well.Pros:-Great all in one-Game Controller, for smaller hands, like mine, are actually really comfortable. IS IT AMAZING, no. but I'm not really a controller snob, so can't get into any specifics. Everything seems fine. Love that the thumbsticks do support L3 and R3, love that they're also recessed so just the top of the dome pops out. Also, the L2/R2 triggers have weird amount of travel to them, they might be analog. Since the R1/L1 have a click to them. Like the big face buttons,-Rii's been at this for a WHILE, and it shows, the keyboard backlighting is nice, hasn't seemed to have changed much since the 5 years I've bought it. BUT it's ONLY WHITE, which for me is perfectly fine. Stepped too, meaning you can adjust to 4 different levels of brightness.-Only complement I'll give the trackpad is that it's recessed, meaning SUPER easy to find blindly. Most of the Rii products I've used had flush trackpads near the top, with the slightest of painted borders on it so you can detect it with your finger if you have hyper sensitive touch like I do, but some of their newer models did away with that boundary guide. SO, good to see there's a physical delineation in place. Okay, I lied, the other compliment is, it's centered at the bottom and easy to attack with your thumbs for some flick and minor navigation.Cons:-Trackpad, Only GLARING failure on this thing. It works, about 2in x 1.5in I'd guess. And that's where the problems lie, too small for proper navigation, and darn near impossible for multi-gesture navigation. You're not doing any 2-finger scrolling on this thing.-Dongle: SO many issues with the dongle. USUALLY though, Rii's always been good about allowing you to store the dongle inside the device, which is SUPER convenient. BUT no place for the dongle here. And if you're like me and have only about 30 or so generic 2.4GHz wireless devices, you'll notice an annoying trend, the dongles all start looking alike. THOUGH, Rii's been doing well enough for itself that some of their recent devices have their branding on it, which slightly helps, but again, I have at least 4 other devices with that Rii branded dongle, so it's a real guessing game, Sharpie Oil pens kind of come in to save the day here. Also, since I couldn't store the dongle inside, though pretty sure there is enough internal cavity near the top to dig out a trench for the dongle to reside, I created my own solution; using a USB A cap (bought on amazon by the handful for next to nothing) and double sided tape, was able to adhere it in between the shoulder buttons, so I can slide the receiver in there if I want to travel with it or store it away. works like a charm, doesn't protrude at all, guarded by the triggers, and just barely thinner than the devices thickness (thanks to the beveled edges. And since it's a plastic cap, shouldn't interfere with RF signal either.Conclusion:Out of the 20 or so of these HTPC (HOME THEATER PC) Mini Keyboards, this one's near the top, for me. Good keyboard, way better than expected game controller. Would I have liked a better trackpad, sure, but they were going for something rather specific here, and they nailed it. It's a jack of all trades and a master of none. Definitely would recommend this for something like a RetroPi setup, easily.Wishes for the second iteration:-USB Receiver slot-BT-USB C charging port-better trackpad.
