Satechi launches new backlit keyboards, iPad stand

Satechi today announced the release of four new backlit USB-C keyboards, including the Slim X1 Bluetooth Keyboard, Slim X1 Wired Keyboard, Slim X3 Bluetooth Keyboard and Slim X3 Wired Keyboard.

The Slim X1 models are compact and portable, to take with you on the go, and the Slim X3 models are full size. The Slim X1 offers a full QWERTY layout, while the Slim X3 also includes a numeric keypad. Both models are available in wired and wireless versions.

Both keyboard models are designed with Apple products in mind, offering an aluminum finish that matches Macs and Apple’s iOS devices. Built-in hot keys work on Mac and iOS devices, and multi-device Bluetooth functionality is included for quick device switching.

There are 10 adjustable brightness levels for the backlit keyboard, and Bluetooth models charge via USB-C while wired models connect via USB-C.
