Mini Bluetooth Keyboard with Touchpad

So what did I buy this for?

To control the Raspberry Pi, obviously!

There’s a ton of cheap options under 100 yuan on Taobao, all shapes and sizes. I went with the smallest one, and it has a built-in touchpad. Bluetooth is a must, of course.

The build quality is honestly pretty bad, but it works well enough. Oh, and it doesn’t come with batteries—you have to stick a AAA in yourself.

Ubuntu Mate Pi 16.04 already supports the Raspberry Pi 3’s Bluetooth module, so you can just pair it with Blueman and it works fine, no problems at all.

So: cheap, works, good enough. That’s about it. Solid choice.
