My old Apple full/wired keyboard (A1234) finally stopped working the other day - the caps-lock light is stuck on but nothing else works.

I was using it with my Mac Studio M1 Max.

I'd like to get a new keyboard but not an expensive Apple one, so I was wondering what are the best alternative options for about £20-40, either wired or not and a full keyboard with numeric keypad?

I've seen an OMOTON wireless one for about £35.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Many thanks.
 
If you don't mind buying used, I'd go on ebay (if they have ebay there), and look for an older wired full-sized Macally keyboard.

I like the fact that they still have USBa ports on either end of the keyboard.
Granted, only slow USB speeds, but useful enough to plug in the unifying receiver for my Logitech mouse...

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll have a look into that.

Anything must be better than the clunky old temporary Dell keyboard I'm currently using!
