CHERRY KW 7100 MINI BT — Bluetooth Compact Keyboard, US International, Slate Blue
Bluetooth 5.13 devicesMetal plateCarrying case included
The CHERRY KW 7100 MINI BT (JK-7100EU-22) is the keyboard for a bag. It is a compact 75% board — 78 keys, 295 × 129 mm, 16 mm high — with a solid metal plate under the keys so it does not flex when you type on a train table, and CHERRY includes a carrying case made from recycled plastic. It pairs over Bluetooth 5.1 on three independent channels, so a laptop, a tablet and a phone can all stay paired and you move between them with Fn+F1, F2 or F3. The keys use the CHERRY SX scissor mechanism with flat, slightly concave ABS keycaps — short travel, quiet landing. The link is AES-128 encrypted, there are fold-out feet and an Fn lock, and it runs on two AAA batteries. This part number is the slate blue finish. In the box: keyboard, carrying case, two AAA batteries and documentation.
Compatibility — check before buying:
Layout: US International QWERTY is the layout most people in Cyprus type on: wide Enter key, @ above 2. If your current keyboard is UK layout, the Enter key changes shape and a few symbols move, but letters and numbers are identical. There is no numeric keypad — that is how a 75% keyboard gets down to 295 mm and into a bag. It is Bluetooth only: no USB receiver is supplied and there is no 2.4 GHz option, so a desktop PC without Bluetooth needs an adapter, and the keyboard will not work in the BIOS before the operating system loads. CHERRY lists Windows, with Android and Chrome OS with some restrictions — on those platforms a few keys may not map exactly, so tell us what you will pair it with. There is no backlight, no N-key rollover and no anti-ghosting. Power comes from two AAA batteries; CHERRY does not publish a battery-life figure for this model, and does not publish a weight.

✓ Switching between a laptop, a tablet and a phone all day

Frequently Asked Questions
Can it drive my phone and my laptop?
Yes — three devices stay paired at once and Fn+F1/F2/F3 switches between them. CHERRY notes some restrictions on Android and Chrome OS.
Is there a numeric keypad?
No. It is a 75% compact layout, which is what makes it portable.
Can I use it in the BIOS?
No. Bluetooth keyboards are available only once the operating system has loaded.
What colours does it come in?
CHERRY builds it in Slate Blue, Agave Green, Cherry Blossom and Milk White under separate part numbers. This one is Slate Blue.
Singular Expert Insight
We recommend the KW 7100 MINI BT to people who type on a tablet or move between machines — the three-channel switching is the feature you will actually use every day. If the keyboard lives on one desk and never moves, a full-size board is better value. Browse our
keyboards or add a compact mouse from our
wireless mice.
