It would seem that today the market for computer equipment and accessories is full of various products that will satisfy the needs of any, even the most sophisticated consumer. However, the real situation is slightly different. A modern person never sits in place, which means that many things that are familiar to us are inaccessible because of their banal bulkiness. For the same reason, many manufacturers are currently working on projects that differ from the rest in their compactness, autonomy and convenience. One of these devices is folding keyboards for smartphones and other communication gadgets.
Gembird KV400W
One of these devices is already available in Russia. This small device has all the basic functions of a full keyboard. Even with its small size, it contains 66 function keys, which is still much less than many are used to, since on standard keyboards their number is usually about 104 keys. But from the point of view of functionality, the KV400BT folding keyboard is in no way inferior to full-size counterparts. It remains only to get used to the specific layout and remember the key assignments.
The compactness of the device is achieved by the small thickness of the case - only 6.8 millimeters when unfolded. There is also the opportunity to fold the device in half, like a book or purse. When folded, the keyboard will take up space not much more than a smartphone.
Since this is a folding keyboard for computers, phones, and other devices, it must somehow connect to them. Therefore, KV400VT is equipped with a Bluetooth transmitter, with which you can establish a connection with most gadgets.
Thanks to the built-in battery with a capacity of 110 milliamps / hours, the keyboard is able to work continuously for 40 hours, which will be enough for full use, and given the fact that recharging the battery takes only 2 hours, this completely ceases to be a problem.
Universal Foldable Keyboard
Another pretty curious representative of folding keyboards is the Universal Foldable Keyboard. This Microsoft brainchild is inherently similar to the device described above, with the exception of some minor distinguishing details.
One of these distinguishing features is the integrated battery. According to the requests of manufacturers, its resources will be more than enough to maintain the operability of the device for three months.
The second feature is more likely to appeal to multi-tasking people, those who, for example, like to chat with friends on social networks without breaking away from working with a document. With the folding keyboard Universal Foldable Keyboard it will be much more convenient. Just connect the keyboard to the phone with open social. network and tablet with a document open on it and switch between them as needed by pressing a single button.
The third technical feature of the keyboard will be useful to absolutely all users whose love for various drinks is measured only by the number of death-filled keyboards. The fact is that UFK has protection against the harmful effects of water, so that an accidentally spilled cup of morning coffee does not harm the keyboard. However, spilled liquid should be removed as soon as possible from the surface of the device - the protection is far from absolute.
Bluetooth Foldable Keyboard F18
Also in this article will be presented a folding keyboard for a tablet or smartphone, whose design is very different from what was described above. Unlike previous keyboards, folding out on the principle of a book, F18 does it like an accordion. Its body is divided into several rectangular segments connected together by hinges. When unfolded, one of the keyboard segments turns into a convenient stand for a phone or tablet. The remaining two blocks are reserved for a convenient compact keyboard. The device works thanks to a built-in rechargeable battery of 400 milliamps / hours, which will be enough for periodic use.
