Have anyone tried Xiaomi MiiiW keyboard on a hackintosh?

Looks like a perfect hackintosh keyboard with Bluetooth and USB wireless. So should work as an Apple Magic keyboard and as a regular USB for BIOS/boot stuff.

Plus macOS and Windows layouts and Apple inspired design..

Though the question is has anyone actually tried it with a hackintosh or is this just to good to be true? :D

Super heavy, all metal, weighs almost the same as the 13" MacBook Pro itself!
 
I have switched to Logitech MX. Even both keyboards are very similar. I think, Xiaomi model failed that it's a wireless keyboard and yet so heavy because of that tablet holding feature..

So Logitech is almost identical, but just better as a regular keyboard and I like keys a little more on the Logi model. :)

 
The Xiaomi one is def very heavy compare to other keyboards! But tend to not move my keyboard a lot and enjoyed using it to connect to (or just hold my iPad/phone) at the right angle.
With sidecar I see it being more essential than ever!
 
I have switched back to Xiaomi now. :D

My Logitech had an annoying UK layout so I gave Xiaomi a second chance.. buttons definitely feels like a downgrade after Logi keyboard at first but I got used to Xiaomi in a few days. And it's a fine keyboard now.

All functions same as on Logitech but cheaper. And yes, iPad stand is a big win with sidecar now. :)
