During CES 2024, Satechi introduced the SM1 Slim Mechanical Backlit Bluetooth Keyboard. For 2025, it's introducing a bigger version.
The SM3 Slim Mechanical Backlit Bluetooth Keyboard is Satechi's first full-size mechanical keyboard. It offers a very similar spec list to its stablemate, the SM1, including the use of low-profile brown switches and a rechargeable battery, but it's a lot bigger.
The SM1's 75% layout has been switched for a full 108-key layout, complete with a numeric pad. The extra keys give users full keyboard control of the desktop, without cramping the keys into a small space.
It still retains a sleek aluminum enclosure and ergonomic design, removable keycaps, and adjustable feet. With its use of dual Bluetooth 5.0 channels, a 2.4GHz USB receiver, and a wired connection, it can also accommodate four devices, including iOS, iPadOS, and macOS devices among others.
The backlighting is also adjustable with 14 different patterns, three brightness levels, and four LED speeds to choose from.
Inside is a rechargeable 2,500mAh battery, with a USB-C port performing double duty for connectivity and recharging.
The Satechi SM3 Slim Mechanical Backlit Bluetooth Keyboard is available now for $119.99.
