Wired Vs Wireless Keyboards
Wireless keyboards have become increasingly popular in recent years, offering users the convenience of a cordless connection and the ability to work from a distance. But wired keyboards still have their place, and for some users, they may be the better option. Here is a comparison of wired and Bluetooth keyboards for Mac computers, to help you decide which is best for your needs.
Note: the reason Bluetooth keyboards are the best wireless keyboard for Mac, is due to the limited ports on MacBooks (as you don’t need a dongle wireless reciever) and Mac, overall, has a decently stable Bluetooth system that ensures stable connectivity.
