I think the BK05 is sourced from a single manufacturer by various brands. I bought the same one under the MoKo brand in 2017; some of the keys started failing in under a year, and so, I was sent a replacement. The same thing happened. When I look at the 2022 Amazon reviews for iClever on this model, people are reporting the same issues. It's a shame because it is a GREAT keyboard, if it didn't fail as much. Considering how old it is, I'm shocked that it hasn't undergone any revisions.
I wish there were a keyboard with the width of the BK05/BK05S, but a height closer to the BK03 (by omitting the function key row). That'd be easier to pocket, but not any harder to type on.
I tend to agree with the reply above regarding thigh thickness. I have relatively skinny thighs, and I just have to be conscious about where my wrists are resting and it works just fine.

I really appreciate you using a scale board. Thank you.
Hi, thanks for review
If i put this keyboard on my knees, all three parts will move or they will stay solid as one construction?
My exact question.
Depends if you have thick thighs.
No, I'm not kidding. If you have a thigh gap and you type like you bottom out keys, the hinges will unlock

Great video 😊 Quick question though, does the keyboard work via usb mode if you dont want to use blue tooth mode?
can the battery be replaced in any of these keyboards?
No. At least not unless you want to take them apart and find the exact same battery to swap out.
Prices?
there's bk03 se version, with usb dongle
Great review. Thanks
Can the battery be replaced?
I think a big factor is price. The bk05 is 4x more expensive.
None woth number key pad?
None of the reviewed keyboards have # keypad. They now sell a bundle with a separate numeric keypad. Also the charge port is now usb-c
