The 6 Best Wireless Keyboards - Black Friday 2024

Of all the keyboards we've tested, we recommend the Razer Pro Type Ultra as the best wireless keyboard for most people. It may look like a straightforward office model with an Apple-inspired white and chrome aesthetic. However, it's a surprisingly versatile mechanical keyboard suitable for productivity, everyday browsing, and competitive gaming. It also offers impressive ergonomic features with two adjustable typing angles and an included wrist rest.

It doesn't lack connectivity options, either. It comes with a Razer Productivity Dongle that you can pair with select Razer mice, like the Razer Pro Click or its smaller counterpart, the Razer Pro Click Mini. You can also pair it with up to three devices simultaneously using Bluetooth. If there's a downside, it's that this keyboard doesn't come in a variety of switch options, and its full-size form factor means it may take up too much space on small desks.

If you're looking for a similar alternative, check out the Logitech G715, another sleek-looking wireless model in a more compact size. It's typically about the same price and comes in linear, tactile, or clicky switch varieties. It also includes a unique cloud-shaped wrist rest and full RGB lighting, while the Razer has white-only backlighting. That said, it doesn't support Bluetooth connectivity, and the typing quality on the Razer feels better overall.

The NuPhy Air75 V2 is the best wireless mechanical keyboard at a mid-range price point. This keyboard offers solid build quality, high portability, and impressive connectivity options. Its keycaps also feel great, and their slim, tile-like design keeps your fingertips comfortably hovering right over them. Just note that these keycaps don't have shine-through legends, so although the keyboard has full RGB backlighting, you can't read the key legends in darker environments.

There are two switches along the top of the board: one to switch between operating system compatibility and one to toggle between connection types. It connects with its included USB receiver, or you can connect and pair with up to three devices via Bluetooth. NuPhy also sells variants of this keyboard that are exactly the same but in different sizes. These include the smaller NuPhy AIr60 V2 and the larger NuPhy Air96 V2.

If you prefer a typing experience that feels closer to a laptop keyboard instead, we recommend the Logitech MX Keys S as an alternative. It's a straightforward wireless model that comes in either a full-size format with a Numpad or a more portable mini size. Rather than the mechanical switches found in the NuPhy, the Logitech uses scissor switches with a distinct tactile bump and a good overall typing feel. Also, the Logitech has shine-through keycaps and white backlighting that adjust to the lighting conditions around you, meaning you can easily read the key legends in the dark.

At a lower mid-range, we recommend the Keychron V5 Max. This is an outstanding wireless mechanical keyboard option with an array of surprising features, given its price. First off, it boasts a gasket mount design that provides a somewhat softer, almost springy-feeling typing experience. It has several other features typically found on higher-priced mechanical keyboards, including high-quality PBT keycaps and multiple layers of acoustic materials inside the case to dampen and even out the sound profile.

This keyboard is also noteworthy for its hardware customizability options. You can select from a range of different switch types at purchase, and its hot-swappable PCB allows you to easily pop out and replace the stock switches. It even includes a toolkit to help you completely disassemble your keyboard if you want to adjust the sound-dampening material or replace stabilizers. It's also compatible with VIA customization software, allowing you to fine-tune your experience further with custom macros and RGB lighting effects. However, this keyboard isn't entirely without its weaknesses, as it doesn't include a wrist rest or have shine-through keycap legends like our top pick, the Razer Pro Type Ultra.

This keyboard is also part of a wider V Max series. This lineup has a range of different size options, including a more conventional full-size model and several more compact models. We recommend any size variant in this series, as the basic feature set and build quality remain the same across the entire lineup. You can browse the models in this lineup on Keychron's website here.

Wireless keyboards tend to be more expensive than wired models, but you can still find good units on a budget, like the Logitech Signature K650. Thanks to its built-in wrist rest and multiple incline settings, you'll be comfortable typing all day. It also has deep-set keys that are easy to reach without tilting your wrists upwards. Another benefit of this design is that the deep-set keys completely cover the switches, exposing no moving parts and offering added protection from crumbs or small spills.

As it's a budget model, it lacks some additional features, including backlighting, support for multi-device pairing, and a rechargeable battery, but it makes up for it. Instead, it has a row of media control keys along the top and two AA batteries for power that last for up to 36 months before you need to swap them out. You can connect this keyboard to your computer with Bluetooth or use the included Logitech USB receiver to connect with select Logitech mice simultaneously.

The best cheap wireless option available is the Logitech Pebble Keys 2 K380s. This keyboard is a standout favorite for students and on-the-go professionals. Its compact size and slim design make it easy to slip into backpacks or laptop cases, and it's an excellent fit for smaller workspaces. It uses AAA batteries for power and connects wirelessly via Bluetooth, allowing you to pair up to three devices simultaneously.

This versatile pick is hard to beat in this price range. Its circular-shaped keycaps and slightly cramped key layout may take some time to get used to. It's also worth pointing out that its compact layout lacks a Numpad. If you need a Numpad, we recommend the Microsoft Bluetooth Keyboard instead. It isn't as portable and doesn't feel as well built overall, but it has a more conventional full-size layout with standard key spacing and is typically available for about the same price.

The SteelSeries Apex Pro Mini Wireless is the best wireless gaming keyboard. This mechanical keyboard is a powerhouse with exceptionally low latency, solid build quality, and your choice of wireless connectivity options. You can connect with the USB receiver when you need the lowest latency or via Bluetooth to save power or connect to multiple devices. You can also use it wired while it's charging, and the battery will last between 30 to 40 hours, depending on how you use it.

Its compact size leaves plenty of space for sweeping mouse movements on your desk. But its most exciting feature is the ability to adjust the individual pre-travel distance of each key to suit your preferences. You can increase the pre-travel on any keys you're constantly hitting accidentally or decrease the pre-travel on your WASD cluster for ultra-sensitive movement controls.

You can also set multiple profiles for different games or a default setting for typing, allowing for a great range in how you use it. You can make all these changes using the companion software, which you can also use to adjust RGB lighting, reassign keys, and set custom macros—letting you completely customize your gaming experience.
