The Rapoo E9090P is a stylish wireless design keyboard with touchpad including Win8 Gesture Control. Manufacturer Link: [...] Scope of delivery: Keyboard, USB receiver, USB charging cable and charging station. There is no software installation required, however, the manufacturer provides a configuration software for download, which can be on the gesture control and the function keys eg with program shortcuts and can serve as a quick reference for the available gestures simultaneously. The keyboard comes in a, shall we say, "tailor-made packaging". This means keyboard, the transmitter and receiver are located in a compact hard plastic-paperboard packaging with no frills. Here I need to install the following criticisms: The keyboard does not reveal itself without the packaging unilaterally to destroy, making it difficult to send them back if not satisfied - even a more accommodating traders will not be thrilled by a broken package. If one wants to be disposed of separately cardboard and plastic part, you have to tear the package apart, with people like cuts for pretty sharp edges in the hand. Well, that could be solved differently. The receiver is the same as the Logitech Unifying receiver and is plugged into a free USB port, under Win8 could then immediately go off - when the keyboard was loaded. Sadly flashes for help A red "charge me" LED. So connect the supplied, rather short USB cable to a suitable USB port or a USB socket and the (for keyboard toward ;-)) wireless charger and sit on the keyboard with the indentation on the underside of the charger. There is no detent or similar, but the charger indicates with an irregularly flashing red LED when it becomes operational. That way, it does with a clearly audible for sensitive ears modulated whistles, that may well interfere in peaceful surroundings. The actual charge level can be seen unfortunately nowhere. Just when you mobile devices like iPad, etc. is used, it is surprising at first, to be able to perform gestures with the help of a keyboard. After short familiarization goes much, for example, right-click, browser navigation, zoom or scroll without a mouse quickly and precisely by hand. The housing is made on top of anthracite colored, silver-colored on the bottom slightly brushed metal, the keys are made of plastic. Use the key combination "Fn + Tab" you switched in two stages on the lighting that after 15-20 seconds (power save mode) dims to the weaker level and press again becomes brighter again. The illumination is quite similar in level 1 and 2, where you clearly decreases from the bottom upwards with my model. Whether this is intentional, I do not know, at least the Windows or the scroll keys can be seen in the dark, for example, significantly better than the function keys. For me, however, no significant decision criterion. The keyboard itself is very flat and designed short-stroke (Scissor technique), smooth and fairly quiet. Certainly not for the "hacker". The best results are obtained with about 'floating' hands, otherwise you make a mistake quickly. For hours and hours writing texts me would be too strenuous. By combining with "Fn" function, the function keys as a freely programmable media or program launch buttons. Conclusion: The keyboard is definitely nothing to look for the office, but rather as a noble eye-catcher on the desk, she met my expectations as such fully. Ideal I imagine they also for the control of a living room PC, a smart TV or a game console.
