It also has a lot of customized one of my favorites is the emoji key by using it you can easily access emojis. To power this you need two AAA batteries that are included in the box, and battery backup is 2 years. For the price of 2k, it is one of the best options available right now.

It is made of plastic material and round keys, a charging port, and an ON/OFF switch are placed on the Topside. Due to its compact size, this keyboard also takes some time to get used to.

Logitech K380

Logitech K380 is another keyboard that made it on my list from the brand Logitech. But It looks the same as Zebroincs ZEB-K5000MW, except Logitech K380, is powered by two AAA batteries. It is available in 6 color options you can choose the one according to your taste.

Same as other AAA battery-operated Bluetooth Keyboards, Logitech K380 also delivers a two-year battery backup. At 430g it is lightweight compared to Logitech K480, so choose the one according to your need.

iClever BK04

iClever BK04 is the one and only keyboard in my list that has backlight keys. It comes with 7 types of backlight colors and two brightness levels. Design-wise it is slim as iPhone 12 and weighs 400g, so you can carry it easily.

A four-hour charge will give you 250 hours of typing time when the backlight is turned OFF if you Turn ON Backlight then the time will be reduced. This keyboard is suited for those who want fancy accessories for their iPad.

Amazon Basics Wireless Bluetooth Multi-Device Keyboard

This Bluetooth keyboard from Amazon has a cradle for iPad and mobile, and it is ergonomically designed. Keys are a bit close to each other so it will take some time to adjust. Amazon Basics Bluetooth keyboard comes with spill resistance.

When it comes to battery backup it will give you nearly 10 hours which is good for the price, but it takes Micro USB for charging which is old-fashioned for 2023. The price point and a cradle for tablets give this keyboard advantage over the others.

Portronics Bubble Multimedia Wireless Keyboard

If you are on a tight budget then Portronics Bubble Wireless Keyboard will be your best choice. It is a very compact and very lightweight Bluetooth Keyboard for iPad, it weighs just 280 grams. This is the only keyboard that has a two-way connection 2.4GHz and Bluetooth 5.0. It also supports 3 devices like other keyboards in this list.

The main problem with this keyboard will be if you have big hands keys will feel very small. Despite its small size it only has 3 months of battery backup and it takes 2 AAA batteries. I personally think this is the most value-for-money keyboard on this list.
