So far so good! I really want to bring something to your attention before I give a proper review however, so I'll give it a proper review after I have had more time with it. Scroll to the bottom for the review.
Having trouble connecting?
Here's how it worked for me, give it a try!
I am on linux so the process is similar but may have different results.
1. I turned on the device switch to '|' (on)
2. On the computer I opened the full bluetooth settings menu
(on linux I generally press the bluetooth button on the taskbar which opens up a temporary mini window right where I clicked it.. Then I clicked the 'configure bluetooth' which is on the top right side and that opened up the full menu.)
3. I pressed and held FN and the F2 at the same time until the light next to my finger started flashing.
4. I clicked "pair device" on the bluetooth menu.
5. I selected the CHERRY KW 9200 MINI from the list and clicked connect.
THIS IS WHERE THE CONFUSING PART HAPPENED. I humoured the onscreen instructions.
6. The onscreen instructions told me to type in the numbers below using the keyboard's screen.
Obviously the keyboard has no screen and I was very confused. But I went along with anyway.
7. I typed the numbers in carefully one at a time and made sure before I clicked the number that it was correct. I have no idea if I can correct them. When I finished typing in all the numbers I hit enter.
For whatever reason, it connected after I hit enter. It was a weird proces that made no sense.
IF IT shows a loading bar or it doesn't close the connection dailogue window but the numbers disappear after you hit enter, you should be able to safely close that dialogue box anyway. I did.
REVIEW on the first day:
So far, it feels sturdy and strong. It looks nice and is satisfying to use. I would say it was worth the buy, but only time will tell. It's slightly wider than I would have preferred but I am still able to switch between using it in both hands for quick typing or laying it on my lap for gaming. It's heavy and grippy enough that it doesn't slide everywhere. Off to a good start!
I shall elaborate as time passes. If I forget to update the review, then it's safe to assume it was that good.
