JLab GO Wireless Keyboard is a compact 60% wireless keyboard built for everyday use at home, in the office, or on the go. It connects via 2.4GHz USB-A dongle or Bluetooth 5 and runs on 2 AAA batteries for over 4 months between changes. 78 keys with a media knob in the lightest keyboard in the JLab lineup. Compatible with Windows and Mac. A 60% layout removes the numpad, function row, and navigation cluster found on full-size keyboards, leaving the core alphanumeric keys, modifier keys, and arrow cluster. The result is a small, portable keyboard that fits in a bag without adding bulk. At 305g it is noticeably lighter than every other keyboard in the JLab range. A media knob handles volume and media without leaving the home row. Tilt legs for adjustable typing angle. Scissor switches provide a low-profile keypress with 1.8mm stroke distance and 5 million cycle key life. OS Layout Keys let you switch between Windows and Mac key configurations directly on the keyboard. Connect via 2.4GHz dongle for stable low-latency wireless or Bluetooth 5 for multi-device flexibility.

This keyboard is really compact, which is exactly what I needed for my small desk space. The 78-key layout with the media knob is surprisingly functional once you get used to not having a numpad. I do wish it had a backlight, as working in lower light conditions can make the keys harder to see. Connectivity via Bluetooth 5 is strong and consistent.
Needed a wireless keyboard for my home office setup that wouldn't clutter my small desk. This JLab GO keyboard is incredibly light, making it easy to move around. The media knob is a nice touch for quick volume adjustments. Set up was a breeze with the 2.4GHz dongle, immediately recognized by my Windows PC. It's been working flawlessly for months without needing new batteries.
The 60% layout takes some getting used to since I previously used a full-size keyboard, but it's great for saving desk space. Connecting it via Bluetooth to my Mac was seamless and quick. Battery life has been excellent so far; still on the first set of AAAs. Typing feels responsive enough for everyday work, though it's a membrane keyboard, so don't expect mechanical switch feel.
This keyboard is excellent for taking to and from the office. The smaller size fits into my backpack easily. The keycaps feel a bit plasticky, but it’s expected for the price point.
Paired quickly with my laptop using Bluetooth, and the connection has been stable.
