Kisnt KN300 Wired USB-C Number Pad for Laptop Data Entry

Excellent product so far. Functions well, fits on my desk nicely. Makes working on my spreadsheets much easier. I love it. Connected just fine and have had no issues with it. Easy to use and comfortable buttons. I like that they are similar to my laptop buttons. Very happy with my purchase

Nice number pad. Does turn off in a decent amount of time. Should keep from wearing out too soon. Spacing good on key pad.

I like this number pad, and the fact that it has some additional keys, like page up/down, home, tab, delete, etc. Also, it has a dedicated key for opening up the calculator app, which is a nice touch. One thing I don't like, and I don't think this is a design defect, is that for actions that require you to hold down a modifier key, like ctrl or cmd, while pressing a key on the number pad, it won't work. Modifier keys have no effect when used in combination with keys on the number pad. This is likely true of any add-on number pad, not just this one, so I didn't deduct any stars for it. Also, it would have been nice if the slope of the number pad matched the slope of the Apple wireless keyboard, but it lies flatter than the keyboard. I guess I can put some extra feet on it to tip it up a little. All in all, I think this product is well made represents a good value.

I ordered this because I had a specific need for a number pad that I could mark up as a portable controller for my flight sims. Since there are a LOT of control keybinds needed, I wanted to be able to label them, but I don't have an easy overlay I could throw over my 96% mechanical keyboard and don't want to swap keycaps every time I want to go fly. Ordering a second number pad was an ideal option; the fact that this one uses USB-C is no problem, and its flat scissor-switch design is fine for my intended use (though I can't stand typing on chiclet type keys normally) as that makes it take minimal space in my bag when we're on the road for my partner's traveling industrial construction work. And being able to fit my PS-style controller and this number pad makes for a functional traveling flight sim setup. This is really a plug-n-play device in Windows, though I did run into one hitch while setting up controls--apparently the left and right parenthesis keys both register in my flight sim as alt keys rather than parenthesis, and therefore I can only use one of them as a toggle rather than using them as dedicated flaps extension/retraction step controls like I wanted to. Since this is designed for use with a laptop, the cord is short; it'll work if your PC is on the desk (or if you have a hub on your desk that plugs into a PC underneath, since it doesn't seem to require much of the power or bandwidth that the Type-C port can handle). As it IS a Type-C plug, not all computers will have the required output port, but you could certainly use a USB to Type-C adapter to make it work with any PC...or even a USB to Type-C female cable to add cable length if your setup requires that. Functionally, this numpad works well for lower-frequency use; it's not ideal for someone who enters data at 150,000kph, as it will not register all keystrokes at that point, which is why I'm only giving it 4 stars. That said, most people can't key that fast even if they do nothing else but practice for a month, so that's a minor drawback. Its current price of 17.99 is right in line with most chiclet-style wired numpads, despite it being a little better quality, so it's a bit of a bargain in my book.

Great quality and price.

Perfect

Amazing add on keyboard for my work laptop. Fits right next to my computer and compact. Works perfectly for what I need, very easy to hookup and use. It looks very nice and like it belongs with my computer! The feel of the keys and clickiness is sufficient to know that I used enough force when keying in my numbers.

I got a new laptop issued for work and it doesn't have a separate number pad on the keyboard. My job does not allow wireless input devices, so in needed a wired USB solution. This fits the bill perfectly. Plug and play with Windows 11. I particularly like the dedicated delete, home, and end keys as well as the unexpected bonus of a key that launches the calculator app.

Works very well but my computer would not recognise USBC connection. I had to use the adaptor provided
