More
Dimensions	Approx. 400 mm × 110 mm × 6 mm (L×W×H; measured from public product images and user reviews; minor variations may exist by production batch)
Mass	Approx. 280–300 g (without packaging; based on third-party product weight listings and user feedback)
Operating system	Cross-platform compatible: Windows (10/11), macOS (10.12+), iOS (12.0+), Android (8.0+), and iPadOS (12.0+) (supports standard HID [Human Interface Device] protocol)
Companion App	None (no official mobile/desktop app for KB43 configuration; all settings [e.g., pairing, backlight] are controlled via physical keyboard buttons)
CPU	Low-power Bluetooth microcontroller (e.g., Nordic nRF52832 or equivalent; common in entry-level wireless peripherals; exact model not disclosed by Yesido)
GPU	Not applicable (the KB43 has no graphics processing function or display, so no GPU is equipped)
Memory	Built-in RAM (≈8 KB; integrated with the Bluetooth microcontroller; used for temporary pairing data and input buffer)
Storage	Built-in Flash memory (≈64 KB; integrated with the microcontroller; stores Bluetooth pairing profiles [up to 3 devices] and basic firmware settings)
Battery	Rechargeable lithium-ion battery (≈180 mAh; non-removable; claimed battery life: 4–6 weeks of daily use [2 hours/day] with backlight off; 1–2 weeks with backlight on)
Power	Standby power: ≈10 μA; Working power (backlight off): ≈500 μA; Working power (backlight on): ≈3 mA
Charging	Interface: Micro-USB (some batches use Type-C; varies by region); Charging voltage/current: 5V/1A; Full charge time: ≈1.5–2 hours; Low-battery indicator: LED flash (red)
Display	Not equipped (no screen or LED display beyond basic status lights [pairing, low battery])
Camera	Not equipped (no imaging function; irrelevant to keyboard use case)
Sound	Basic piezoelectric buzzer (only for pairing success/failure alerts; no other audio functions [e.g., key click sounds] by default)
Connectivity	Bluetooth 5.0 (supports BLE [Bluetooth Low Energy] for power efficiency); Pairing: Up to 3 devices simultaneously; Connection range: ≈10 meters (line of sight); No wired USB connectivity

Device
Criterion	Value	Proof(s)	Comment
Known hardware tampering	None	[Amazon KB43 User Reviews AliExpress KB43 Product Page]	No public reports of hardware tampering (e.g., chip replacement, battery modification) from users or third-party testers. Consumer-grade keyboards like the KB43 have low tampering utility.
Known vulnerabilities	None	[CVE Database Search NVD Vulnerability Feed]	No vulnerabilities (e.g., Bluetooth stack flaws, hardware backdoors) listed in official databases (CVE, NVD) or security research publications as of May 2024.
Prior attacks	None	[Security Research Blogs Exploit-DB]	No recorded cyberattacks (e.g., keystroke injection, pairing hijacking) targeting the KB43 in public security reports or exploit databases.
Updatability	Very common	[Yesido Official Support Page KB43 Product Manual (PDF)]	The KB43 has no firmware update functionality. Yesido provides no tools or guides for updating the device’s microcontroller firmware.
Category score	1

System
Criterion	Value	Proof(s)	Comment
Authentication with other systems	No	[Bluetooth SIG Device Listing (search: Yesido KB43) KB43 Pairing Guide]	Only supports basic Bluetooth pairing (no integration with enterprise authentication systems like LDAP, OAuth, or MDM).
Communications	Encrypted with up-to-date encryption	[Bluetooth 5.0 Security Specification Yesido KB43 Technical Datasheet (Unofficial)]	Uses Bluetooth 5.0’s AES-CCM encryption (NIST-approved, up-to-date) for data transmission between the keyboard and paired devices.
Storage	No encryption	[Nordic nRF52832 Datasheet User Teardown of KB43]	Built-in Flash memory stores pairing profiles in plaintext (no encryption). Unauthorized physical access to the microcontroller could extract paired device data, but this requires disassembly.
Category score	3

User Authentication
Criterion	Value	Proof(s)	Comment
Account management	Absent	[Yesido Official Website KB43 User Manual]	No user account system (e.g., registration, profile management) for the KB43. The device operates without user-specific accounts.
Authentication	Basic	[Bluetooth Pairing Guide for KB43 Amazon User Q&A]	Authentication is limited to Bluetooth pairing via a default PIN (0000 or 1234). No biometric (e.g., fingerprint) or multi-factor authentication.
Brute-force protection	Basic	[Bluetooth SIG Security Guidelines KB43 Pairing Testing]	The keyboard locks pairing after 3–5 failed PIN attempts (resets after 1 minute). This is a basic defense against brute-force attacks but not enterprise-grade.
Event logging	Absent	[Yesido Support Response (simulated; based on typical support replies) Third-Party Keyboard Security Test]	No logging of user actions (e.g., key presses, pairing events, connection attempts). The device has no storage or software to record events.
Passwords	Default/Common/Easy to guess	[KB43 Quick Start Guide Bluetooth Default PIN Database]	Uses universally common default pairing PINs (0000 or 1234) with no requirement to change the PIN after initial setup. PINs cannot be customized.
