Appears to have a US-layout keyboard and will require user to supply AAA batteries rather than the preferable inclusive USB-rechargeable option, but otherwise seems decent for the price.

I think some may prefer AAA batteries because the rechargeable ones that are supplied inside these types of keyboards usually fail early

Actually replaceable battery feature is much more desirable and better than charging via USB.
much easier and never have to look for USB cable and wait for it to charge when you need it.

Probably the most balanced comment, supported by an image of the battery compartment within the listing of same / similar item where for a mere £7.88 the supplier will send the air mouse and also miraculously re-locate Middlesex to some unidentified place outside UK. Bargain. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262879739857

Do I bite and get for this price or stick with my wireless mouse?
Had 3 of these in the past and they all developed the same fault (cursor would move on it's on and light on keyboard constantly flashing as if I was pressing something).
Returned first 2 and threw out the 3rd.
Maybe I'll try the eBay link (thanks kriss57) and see how much I can get off asking price :smiley:

Bit bigger but I've had my Logitech k400 for years now, maybe 5?
Even washed the dongle part in the washer. Thing gets through a fair bit of punishment. Used it on a media pc for 2 years, laptop for one and in the field as an it engineer for another year.
Little guys a fighter!
Tho dunno is current gen is any good, mines gen1. I know gen2 had some android issues but was fixed in gen3.

USB cable would be found hanging from a USB port normally, you know, since you need the receiver plugged in for the keyboard to work.

One of the comments made on item from ebay link below re Android TV:
Works well - Great Price
I recently bought an android tv box which works well but only has a basic remote.
I bought this keyboard to use as a remote.
I wasn't sure it would do what I wanted but for less than £6.00 delivered I thought it was worth trying.
I am not dissapointed, it worked well straight out of the box allowing me to easily control all functions of the box.

I have something similar for my Android box. Works really well. Having a keyboard to enter text is reason enough to get one of these.
Mine came with a rechargeable battery, but if that ever gets knackered, the remote will take AAA batteries, too - perfect, IMO. The battery charges by micro-USB, so I just leave a cable plugged into the TV's spare USB port, and I never have a dead remote.
The range is fine - I can sit anywhere in my room, and the signal reaches. The button has stuck once, but switching the remote off and then on again fixed it (although, I know that others do have problems, including pressing several keys, but only one key actually responds onscreen).
It's light, it has a touchpad, it has a left and right mouse button, it has shortcuts, it has a nav-control, it has a volume control - if you get one with no problems, these are really good. If you watch your TV with the lights on, then go for it. If you watch in the dark, then you'll probably be better of with the backlight version.
Phew!

That would depend on your requirements of the Android box, for example 1080p, or 4k output etc and the specification needed for that accordingly. Nvidia shield is a do it all for the top end.

Good find. I'm looking at buying something like this but I think I'm going to go with Amazon and pay a couple of quid extra (£7.95) with the knowledge that I can return it if something goes wrong.
