Perixx PERIBOARD-725 Wireless Keyboard with Touchpad - Compact

Our review of the Perixx PERIBOARD-725 finds it a compact, practical wireless keyboard best suited for users who need a small footprint input device with integrated cursor control. The single biggest reason to consider it is the built-in touchpad paired with multi-device connectivity, which replaces a separate mouse and reduces desktop clutter. In testing it feels like a laptop-style keyboard with quiet scissor switches, and the size and layout make it an excellent fit for media centers, industrial consoles, or a desk where space is limited.

Key Features

• Compact footprint: The 11.18 x 7.17 x 1.1 in size makes it easy to position in tight workstations or mount near equipment without blocking other ports.
• Integrated precision touchpad: The 2.48 x 1.85 in touchpad provides pointing, scrolling and zooming gestures so a separate mouse is not required for basic navigation.
• Silent scissor keys: Seventy-eight low-profile scissor keys offer a quiet typing feel with durable switches rated for longevity and ABS-printed legends that resist color wear.
• Multi-device connection: Built-in 2.4G and two Bluetooth channels let you pair up to three devices and switch between a PC, tablet, or smartphone quickly.
• Broad Windows support: Native compatibility with Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 simplifies setup for typical desktop and kiosk environments.

Who It's For

The PERIBOARD-725 is ideal for users who want a compact, all-in-one input solution: home media PC owners, light industrial operators, and office users who prefer a low-profile keyboard with an integrated touchpad. It suits anyone who values desk space and needs simple multi-device switching without wires.

It is less well suited for heavy typists who require a full-size keyboard with a numeric keypad or for users who need a large, high-precision touchpad for complex gestures; likewise, those relying on non-Windows systems should verify compatibility first.
