[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Much better connections than than the previous wired version. The USB-C connector is solid. The wireless connection via the dongle is as solid as Logitech.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My first ThinkPad arrived at my home on a Friday. After spending the weekend working on the laptop I was instinctively looking for the TrackPoint on my work desktop keyboard on Monday. Over the last several years I've spent as much or more traveling as working from my home office, so I've normally just worked directly on my laptop. Since COVID has restricted travel I've re-imagined my home office and started using an external keyboard for my laptop. I quickly missed the TrackPoint and found this keyboard. The best think I can say about this keyboard is, for me, it is as good as "the real thing"!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Every time I boot up my laptop, I have to turn off fn lock. You need it off to use volume controls. The chassis bows up towards the center. I'm still waiting for one with the number pad. ThinkPad should also include swappable fn and ctrl keys and have a hard switch on the keyboard to switch the keys' functions. Since I use it on an HP, there's no option in the bios to switch them.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best way to get a Bluetooth keyboard with a trackpoint nub! Feels really sturdy and works great. I use this regularly with both my desktop computer and my iPad Pro.
Would like to have seen a keyboard back light though, it's pretty difficult to read the keys in the dark.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent feeling keyboard, trackpoint works great, absolutely love it. Only downside is that I find I have to constantly re-pair it with my linux-running laptop, but I think that's a linux issue.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] But I am buying another one. When it works it is such a fantastic tool. But when I got it, it would creak every time I placed my hand on it (just left side). Within 1 month of getting it the left side foot had broken. Within 6 months, and with normal use it developed a deep crack on the top left side. No Impact other than dropped my phone on it from a height of about 2 inches that caught the corner a couple of times. I am hoping I got a lemon, I should have been more careful of that side since it had been creaking from day one. Oh well.
I am going to "Not recommend" for now, I really dont want to drop the cash on a replacement but here I am. Even if the second one is fantastic this is going to be a not recommended from me cause QC.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great wireless keyboard. Setup and connection was easy. Battery life is great -- I used this for work every day for 4 weeks, and I still have not had to recharge it. The "feel" and "response" of the keys is great. I'm a huge fan of the Trackpoint for mouse movements. For me, it is better than a touch pad.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great Keyboard. It is both BT and USB-Dongle. I have 2 computers that I swith back and forth and this works great with a flip of a switch. (One set to USB, the other set to BT). Best of class keyboard and feel the legendary Thinkpad keyboard, which is the best keyboard I have used for 20 years.
