Product Description

Maybe you don’t need a full macro pad, or maybe the appeal of a tiny one is just too much to pass up. This mini two-key macro pad won’t make a big footprint on your desktop, but it can have a huge impact Read More

Fun, but Mostly a Novelty

I enjoyed this as my first (really) little first into hot swappable macro pads and keyboards, but it doesn't really offer much. As to be expected from something so small, there's hardly any weight to it which is a problem if you use a stiff USB cable. No matter what I tried, the thing would invariably fall over on it's side if I ever merely bumped the cable. The software worked fine for me, haven't had any of the problems the other people ran into, though perhaps I'm just lucky. Might recommend, but with reservations.

More of a novelty than anything else

This little guy is alright. But as a macropad, having only 2 keys, it's definitely more of a novelty than anything else. I'm sure there are use cases for this, but I'd much rather use a larger macropad than one with 2 keys. At this point, I am using it as display for 2 artisans. Also, I am not a fan of the software used to program it. Would rather have a macropad that you can use with QMK.

Could never open the software, even a year afterwards

Whole thing did not feel like quality. I would just not recommend and just suggest a different macropad.

TBH I'm speaking on behalf of my friend whom I gifted this to sorry, he said he needed at least 1000hz

kingwongOh its fine, thanks for responding back. Just researched and found out that ANY keyboard that is "hot swappable" isn't capable of 1000hz. Keep that in mind :] (even if they are marketed as 1000hz, switches aren't soldered hence no 1000hz support).

Novelty only

Fair build quality, but firmware is severely limited with the hardware used. Also, use a slack cable instead of a more rigid one. It tends to roll over due to such a small base.

Screw came stripped, Software wasn't clear.

The more important issue for me was that the screw that holds both the PCB and the acrylic window to the metal housing didn't screw in to the hole, and after closer examination, the threading wasn't intact. After deciding to just not use the acrylic plate, the programming the software was a handful. It was difficult to make any sort of complex macro. The only reason I'm giving this two stars at all is that it was cheap, so my hopes weren't all too high.
