Once charged, using its USB-C cable, the keyboard will last up to 50 hours. Out of the box the keyboard required charging fairly quickly, which wasn’t a great first experience. Its slim profile hinders its battery life, whilst also restricting its low typing angle In the box you’ll find the Satechi aluminium slim keyboard itself, a 1m USB-C to USB-A charging cable to connect and charge its internal rechargeable battery, and a user manual to help you pair the keyboard to an Apple Mac or iOS device, to how to charge it and use its various Mac and iOS centric function keys. The Satechi Aluminum Slim Wireless Keyboard is such a keyboard that allows you to connect to up to four separate devices whilst keeping your typing experience consistent between them all. Luckily there are a few keyboards available today that allow you to switch between devices with a simple press of an assigned button. Featuring a numeric keypad and full QWERTY layout, all in a narrow form factor
