All in one keyboard is the trending, no-nonsense gadget of the season. An integrated keyboard with well-spaced touchpads and media controls chiefly designed for MAC and PCs is an ultimate choice of tech savvies as well as homies around the globe. Touchpads are exclusively added to facilitate the user-drag, navigate, tap, type and zoom anywhere on the PC connected TV’s. While the visual peripherals get bigger day by day, the control peripherals are getting compact and handy, so this all-in-one keyboard is a perfect addition into our gadget bank.

Tablet and laptop are commonly used today, no matter you use them for entertainment or go down to business, a Bluetooth or wireless keyboard with touchpad are proved to be more convenient than the keyboard from the devices itself.

All-in-one keyboards integrate a wireless keyboard with a touchpad, combining two devices into one. They’re the ideal solution for anyone with a living room media center or someone who wants to lean back and use their computer from a distance. Home theater PCs are probably the most powerful and flexible means of enjoying a wide variety of video content in your living room. But for all that power and flexibility, you still occasionally have to deal with the operating system underneath and Windows 10 isn’t going to make it any easier. That means either using some kind of remote control software or keeping a keyboard and mouse handy. Several accessory makers like Logitech and Microsoft now have keyboards with integrated touchpads, more or less like a laptop without the screen, specifically designed for home theater setups.

You can take the following tips into consideration while deciding to buy a touchpad keyboard. If you use desktop more often than tablet or laptop, you are suggested to buy a wireless keyboard and mouse combo; otherwise, a wireless keyboard with touchpad is more convenient. Consider the wireless range of your keyboard. The typical rang for a standard wireless keyboard is approximately 30 feet. However, a wireless keyboard with built-in 2.4 GHZ connection has a range of up to 82 feet. Consider buying a wireless keyboard with rechargeable batteries which is more cost-effective.

1. Logitech Wireless Touch Keyboard K400

Logitech is the go-to keyboard brand for many users, so you’ll be happy to know that the company makes one specifically for home theater PCs and other living room hardware. The layout on the Wireless Touch K400 Plus is similar to that of a full desktop keyboard with a full number and function row, and the trackpad includes physical buttons for left and right mouse clicks. Dedicated media keys are limited to volume up, volume down, and mute, though virtual function keys for pause, back, and forward are inset into the F-row. Logitech claims an operating distance of 33 feet with the included USB adapter, and the keyboard is powered by two AA batteries.

2. Lenovo ThinkPad

Lenovo’s ThinkPad line of laptops is legendary for its quality keyboards and unique TrackPoint mouse devices, and this Compact Bluetooth Keyboard incorporates both of them into a small case meant primarily for desktop and mobile users. This keyboard really isn’t designed as a home theater accessory, but the integrated TrackPoint (the little red nub in the center) makes it an ideal choice for this purpose. Since it doesn’t have to dedicate space to a full trackpad, it’s also considerably smaller than the Microsoft and Logitech options above. The battery is rechargeable via a MicroUSB cable.

For those who intend to do a lot of typing on the couch, for example in online games with chat functions, this is an excellent choice.
