It really helped me learn a new language and l'm so amazed with this keyboard thank u so much
★★★★☆Brealyn Bagangan· May 27, 2026
This keyboard is really good, it has translation, voice record and more but since I'm someone who wants my keyboard to be costumized, It didn't have that much option just the picture, no font style, color and more but overall it is good. Now this is what I'm using to communicate with my friends, and it also helps me train my mandarin if I typed correctly or if it was translated correctly 🥰🥰

★★☆☆☆Tony Zhu· Feb 25, 2026
No Fuzzy PinYin? Oof. It seems to be a functional keyboard in the beginning, but the Character Selection List is Too Short. Can't find some less common character.
