Bluetooth keyboard that you can easily share between three devices
When it was time to replace the keyboard for my Mac mini, I decided to find a Bluetooth keyboard that could easily be switched between devices. I wanted to be able to use the same keyboard at times with my iPad Pro. This keyboard would not be for heavy use, so I did not want to spend a lot on it. Looking through well rated options, I chose the Logitech Bluetooth Keyboard K480.

I like the Logitech K480 since it has a dial to easily switch between three Bluetooth wireless devices. It is easy to pair each device for each dial setting. After that, you can turn the dial and the keyboard is ready for use with each particular device.
I set up the keyboard with my Mac mini, iPad Pro, and iPhone. I have not tried this keyboard yet with the Apple TV. Since this keyboard is made for use with Apple products, it does have an appropriately labeled Command key.

iPad in use with the K480
One of the other reasons I chose this keyboard, is that it has a cradle for the iPad and iPhone. This works well as I can leave my iPad in a thin case and drop the iPad in the cradle when I want to use the Logitech keyboard. The cradle even fits my iPad Pro 10.5" in landscape orientation. This setup is more stable than just the folded iPad cover when tapping on the iPad to select items.
I would consider this to be a clicky keyboard and it makes some noise when typing (which I don't mind). Bluetooth pairing has been rock solid for me when switching between devices. I find the keyboard to be good for my light duty keyboard needs.
