Backlit I8 Mini Wireless Keyboard and Touchpad Combo for Laptop Smart TV and Android Box

This mini wireless keyboard combines a full set of typing keys with a built-in touchpad, removing the need for a separate mouse on your desk or beside the sofa. Its compact size (146.8 × 97.5 × 19mm) and light weight (approximately 110g) make it easy to carry between rooms or take on trips. The 2.4GHz USB receiver provides a stable connection up to 10 metres, giving you freedom to control devices from a distance. An 800mAh rechargeable lithium battery delivers long standby time, so you can rely on it for hours of use without hunting for spare batteries.

Features and Construction

Built around a full 92-key layout, this keyboard includes both standard typing keys and 18 dedicated multimedia controls. The touchpad uses a high-sensitivity surface with 360-degree flip design, allowing you to angle it for comfort. LED backlighting adds visibility in dim environments, with adjustable colours accessible through the function keys.

92 Keys and Multimedia Controls

The keyboard offers 74 standard keys plus 18 media keys, giving you direct access to functions like volume, playback, mute, and player launch. The top row includes F1–F12 keys for application shortcuts. Dedicated keys for email, search, my computer, and browser main page sit at the top corners, streamlining everyday tasks without needing on-screen clicks.

Touchpad with Multi-Gesture Support

The integrated touchpad supports intuitive gestures: one finger acts as left mouse button, two fingers scroll or turn pages, and three fingers produce a right click. The touchpad can be flipped 360 degrees, letting you position the keyboard at the angle that suits you. Hold Fn and swipe the lower part of the touchpad to change backlight colours, or swipe without Fn to enter a marquee lighting mode.

LED Backlight and Colour Switching

Press Fn+F2 to activate the backlight. Then, while holding Fn, swipe your fingers left or right across the lower touchpad area to cycle through different colour options. If you do not hold Fn, sliding across the touchpad enters the marquee mode where colours rotate automatically. The backlight helps you see the keys clearly in low-light settings like a home cinema or dim bedroom.

Compatibility and Connectivity

This keyboard connects via a 2.4GHz USB receiver and works with devices that have a USB port. It is compatible with Windows (2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10), Linux distributions (Debian 3.1, Redhat 9.0, Ubuntu 8.10, Fedora 7.0), Android 4.0 and above, plus smart TV platforms including Android TV boxes, Google TV boxes, HTPC, and IPTV systems. It also works with Xbox 360 and PS3/PS4 game consoles when a USB port is available.

Smart TV and Set-Top Box Control

Use the keyboard with Android TV boxes, Google TV boxes, or any IPTV system to navigate menus, search content, and type passwords quickly. The integrated touchpad means you do not need to juggle a separate remote and mouse – everything is under one hand. The 10-metre working range lets you sit back on the sofa while controlling your media centre.

Laptop and PC Companion

For laptops or desktop PCs, this mini keyboard serves as a compact alternative to the built-in keyboard and trackpad. It is small enough to drop into a bag for use in meetings, presentations, or during travel. The multimedia keys give instant control over music and video playback without minimising your current window.

Game Console Support

Compatible with Xbox 360, PS3, and PS4 via USB, the keyboard can be used for text entry, chat, or navigating console menus. The touchpad provides a mouse-like pointer for systems that support it, adding convenience beyond standard controller input.

Battery and Power Management

An 800mAh rechargeable lithium battery powers the keyboard, with a sleep current under 1mA to conserve charge when idle. The battery is removable, allowing replacement if needed. Auto-sleep engages after 3 minutes of inactivity, and pressing any key for about 1 second wakes the device. This power management extends time between charges, making the keyboard suitable for daily use without constant recharging.

Auto Sleep and Wake

After 3 minutes without any operation, the keyboard enters sleep mode automatically. A brief press of any key (about 1 second) wakes it instantly, so you can resume typing or navigating without delay. This preserves battery life when you step away from your device.

Charging and Current Draw

The keyboard draws under 50mA during normal operation and under 300mA while charging. The lithium battery offers longer standby compared to disposable cells, and the rechargeable design saves ongoing battery costs. Use the included USB receiver connection – the device requires a USB port to operate.

Package Contents and Setup

The package includes the wireless keyboard, one USB receiver, and a user manual. Simply insert the receiver into a free USB port on your device, and the keyboard is ready to use. No separate driver installation is needed for supported systems. The user manual includes detailed instructions for backlight operation and gesture controls if you need a reference.
