The 8BitDo Retro 18 mechanical numpad adds a number pad to a compact keyboard setup and doubles as a desk calculator. It connects over Bluetooth, 2.4G or cable, and the supplier lists Windows and Android support.

Why it earns desk space

• Numpad and calculator: switch between a PC numpad and a standalone calculator with one click.
• Nine-digit display: a seven-segment display shows your sums, readable at a glance.
• Three ways to connect: Bluetooth, 2.4G wireless or a wired connection.
• Calculator shortcut: a dedicated key opens the Windows Calculator app.
• Pairs with compact boards: gives a tenkeyless or 60% keyboard its number pad back, and moves aside when you need mouse room.
• Four editions: M, N, C64 and Fami, each with its own retro color scheme.

Specs

Good to know

• Supported systems are Windows and Android. Other systems aren't listed by the supplier, so check before you buy for a Mac.
• It's designed to sit alongside the 8BitDo Retro mechanical keyboard, but it works with any keyboard.

FAQ

Is a separate numpad worth it?

It is if you run a compact keyboard but still enter numbers for work, spreadsheets or game hotkeys. You keep mouse room and get the number pad only when you need it.

Does the 8BitDo Retro 18 work wirelessly?

Yes. It connects over Bluetooth or 2.4G wireless, or by cable.

Can it work as a calculator on its own?

Yes. Calculator mode uses the built-in display, and one click switches it back to a numpad.

Which edition should I choose?

The editions differ in color scheme. Pick the one that matches your keyboard, and check the photos for each.
