Best Portable keyboards you can buy for Android, iPhone and iPad

Portable Keyboards act as great saviors when your laptop isn’t working, and you have real work to do. These transportable keyboards are mostly full-sized unlike the small touch keypad of smartphones. Portable keyboards are most helpful when we need to write up a detailed mail, make a presentation or edit a document. They are compatible with both Android as well as iOS devices, and indeed turns them into a productive tool.
