Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. M Wireless Keyboard Review

Others/Mice & Keyboards by stefan @ 2016-01-24

S.T.R.I.K.E. M is a cool looking mobile keyboard which features smaller than usual keys, meaning that some time is needed to get accustomed with. While the product connects to the devices via Bluetooth technology, we do have one device cycle button for jumping from one device to another in just a couple of seconds, without the need of additional configurations of software. Multimedia keys are fitted on the top left side and quite a bit of functions like ESC and F-keys are accessible while working with the Fn key. For even better flexibility, we can see one OFN (Optical Finger Navigation) button on the top right side, which is accompanied by the mouse left/right buttons; an extra set of mouse buttons is also available on the left, which helps when holding the product in both hands.

Packaging, A Closer Look Part I

Mad Catz S.T.R.I.K.E. M is the second device from the same manufacturer we are taking a look at, which features GameSmart technology for connecting with a wide range of devices via Bluetooth. This time we are talking about a compact keyboard, which features the same futuristic design as we have seen with their other peripherals. The product is shipped inside a compact cardboard enclosure, with a photo of the product on top and also here we will learn about the keyboard layout:

 

 

 

The main product components are explained on the back side of the enclosure and here we will be also able to take a look at the included accessories:

 

 

 

After removing the top packaging layer, we will get to see the internal cardboard box, which does also feature a central Mad Catz logo:

 

 

 

With this product, the manufacturer has chosen to seal the box using adhesive, which is not really our cup of tea:

 

 

 

After lifting the top cover, we will get to see various compartments inside:

 

 

 

The top instruction manual will inform us on the initial pairing procedure, but also on how to use the advanced features of the product:

 

 

 

Along with some leaflets regarding technical support, we will also receive a set of nice case stickers:

 

 

 

As accessories, we do get one plastic dock, but also one USB cable for charging the device:

 

 

 

The S.T.R.I.K.E. M is already fitted inside the carry pouch, which also comes with a catchy design:

 

 

 

On the bottom area of the carry pouch we do have a separate compartment for fitting the keyboard accessories:
