The Scosche freeKEY is a folding and waterproof keyboard designed to be used with laptops, tablets, iPhones and more! The Scosche freeKEY is a wireless keyboard that works using Bluetooth connectivity. The keyboard has a range of 30 feet and also has a mini-USB port for charging purposes. The fact that this keyboard is waterproof is great since spilling liquid on a keyboard happens more often than you would like. Being able to [roll up this keyboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amber-kb-1) and put it in your backpack, cavernous pocket or man-purse should appeal heavily to users of tablets and smartphones who don't necessarily carry around the massive laptop bags designed to hold both computers and keyboards. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) > [Inventions](https://www.trendhunter.com/inventions) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Flexible Keyboards:** The rise of flexible keyboards like the Scosche freeKEY presents opportunities for innovative and portable typing solutions. - **Wireless Connectivity:** Wireless keyboards with Bluetooth connectivity, such as the Scosche freeKEY, offer convenience and flexibility for users. - **Waterproof Technology:** Waterproof keyboards like the Scosche freeKEY address the need for durable and spill-resistant typing devices. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Electronics:** The electronics industry can capitalize on the demand for flexible and waterproof keyboards, creating new products for consumers. - **Mobile Devices:** Mobile device manufacturers can explore partnerships with keyboard makers to integrate flexible, wireless keyboards into their products. - **Travel and Outdoor Gear:** The travel and outdoor gear industry can incorporate waterproof keyboards, like the Scosche freeKEY, into their product offerings for adventurers and on-the-go professionals. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Portable Productivity Tablet Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/logitech-keystogo-2.md) - [Multifunctional Hidden Display Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scroom-keyboard.md) - [Rollable Bamboo Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bamboo-slips-keyboard.md) - [All-in-One Tablet Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skfp-combo-keyboard.md) - [Sleek Computer-Packed Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foldable-keyboard-computer.md) - [Intelligent Touchscreen Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keygo-touchscreen-keyboard.md) - [Ultra-Compact Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lofree.md) - [Sleek Tablet Productivity Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mokibo-fusion-keyboard-2.md) - [Totable Technology Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nuphy-air60-wireless-mechanical-keyboard.md)
