Genuinely essential

This little device completely changed my life. It has made using drawing and editing software so much easier and faster that I cannot imagine ever doing digital art without it. You'll have to download the drivers from the website, but once you do you'll get a taskbar icon where you can configure its keys at your pleasure. If you already have an XP-Pen tablet you already have this icon, but after installing the driver you'll be able to switch between configuring the tablet and the Remote from a drop menu.Essentially, with this device you now have over 40 shortcuts at your disposal. A selection of buttons and a wheel can be configured at your discretion with any key/mouse combinations or established functions you choose. The wheel is perfect for stuff like zooming, rotating or changing brush size, but you can give it any function you want. One special key can be used to switch between different button presets, and you get up to 4 of them. No more constantly fiddling with your mouse to find any elusive function you use regularly that interrupts your flow while you look for it. And yes, some tablets already have a few button shortcuts, but the more the merrier.The device is also very light and easy to carry. It works both connected and wireless by Bluetooth, so you can set it anywhere you find the most comfortable. It comes with a few stickers for existent functions (move, cut, eraser, zoom in, etc.) that you can put on the buttons so you remember which one is which, but obviously these are only going to be helpful for one of the presets.Be wary, though, that depending on the software you use you might have to do some extra configuration in it. For instance, while you can set the wheel to Rotate in its own menu, if you try to use it in Clip Studio Paint it won't immediately work. You have to go to CSP's Shortcut Settings first, find the Rotate option and set the shortcuts for it to the wheel. After that it'll work like a charm.I really can't recommend this device enough. It really is a time saver.

Functions Great on either PC or Mac

I needed a little shortcut keyboard capable of working across both PC or Mac platforms. This fits the bill delightfully. Being a compact size, the ACK05 has a minimal footprint on your desk. If your PC is running Win 7 or later or your Mac is using OS 10.10 or later, this is a great little device to have. I oftentimes have to jump back and forth between either a PC or Mac environment in my work, so having a little keypad where one simple button press eliminates the need for me to remember which keyboard shortcuts are required for tasks across either OS is wonderful.I use this little guy all the time.Functionally, it's a pretty decent bag. Buttons all feel nice with a proper click to them that the scissor switches provide. The wheel is great for assigning with programs to access things like rotation or zoom options, though I really wish it didn't have indexer-clicks when turning it. I prefer wheels with a silent no-cllck control feel to them...but at this price I'm not going to hum about it.It works, so I'm happy.Battery life is excellent. Work with this peripheral for hours and hours and hours and it runs and runs.I basically just have to remember to plug the USB-C type cord into it at the end of the work week and It's good to go for Monday.Yes, there are flashier and more expensive shortcut keyboard devices out there but I really appreciate this one for its simplicity. I've used the $100 Xencelabs Quick Keys remote keypad before, I found it an extravagant exercise that was more flash than function. Small, slippery low-profile buttons positioned along the outer edges of the unit to make way for an OLED screen with really hard to read tiny text, and some RGB gimmickery thrown in. Battery life on that device wasn't great as I recall.The ACK05 on the other hand has easy-to-press raised buttons across its entire diminutive surface, and if you can use a sharpie and have some Avery labels on hand (I use the removable style tiny ones) you can customize your keypad to some degree. I suppose you could even use cut-to-size sticky colored post-it note paper to add color to the buttons.The ACK05 requires one of the buttons on the 10-button layout be assigned as the "key group switching" button... it allows you to set up and customize 4 possible groups of (9) keys for a possible combination of 36 potentially different shortcuts / actions.That is way more shortcuts than I need, but it's nice to know they're there if you need them.Additionally you can assign a button as "set preview" in one (or all) of the groups. This will display the currently selected groups of keys and their programmed functions on the monitor when you press it.I have that option on both groups of the two key groups I use, so I have 8 keys remaining on each group I can assign functions to.I kind of wish the center-button in the rotating wheel could be assigned something else besides "choose a wheel option: zoom, scroll, brush size or rotate"...AND that they might have included some indicator of which you were in (that would have been an appropriate use of small LEDs I'd argue) if you have the screen-dialogue subtitles shut off because they get real annoying real quick... but it's not a deal-breaker.The XP-Pen software that shipped with the ACK05 I went ahead and updated and it does a good job of making all the options for customization accessible. It was pretty easy to understand and I appreciate that you can orient the layout / buttons manager as displayed on the monitor same as how the ACK05 will physically rest on your desktop.I do not possess the technical expertise to comment on how the ACK05 might be better or worse than other keypads when it comes to the robustness or flexibility of the software and coding, but I will say its been working really well for me between my PC and Apple systems and I have thus far had no problems with it.If I had any quirks to address, it might be that I wish the buttons were a slightly lighter color than the black body of the ACK05 so they'd be easier to see...but as mentioned, that is easily and quickly remedied with application of stickers. XP-Pen does include some in the packaging, but I found it more fun to make my own.In conclusion I think the XP-Pen ACK05 is a very good deal for a handy little keypad that does work well and doesn't cost a lot of money.I've been happy with mine, it's proven to be a little workhorse that lets me get things done more easily.

eh. Its ok.

Great. Scroll wheel is pretty crummy though. I use it to enlarge or decrease the size of my cursor. it expands and contracts rapidly. The faster you spin the worst it is which is really sad as it slows me down.

Give it a chance, it's an amazing music remote

The device build quality is decent and should survive years of basic use. Don't throw it around and it should last you a decent time.The distance for communication I haven't tested but it's Bluetooth 5.p so the distance should be decent but why are you so far away. Anyway.The application for windows, and most likely for others with a UI, was a bit weird to set up but once it is, it works as advertisedI am currently useing it to control my soundcloud and Spotify music applications. The scroll wheel is amazing and has a very nice clicking feedback.Make sure to save your configuration file a few times or for each application that you add for the remote to control. A few times it did not save for me onto the device and I had to redo it. Currently I just leave the windows app running in the background minimized all the time. This way, I can easily modify something and it stays saved non stop.
