Hi Dulce.

As long as you are comfortable with 14 cells, it's not a bad option at all. The 
keyboard is a bit less angular than what you would be used to on the Braille 
Sense, which took me some adjusting, but not something that bothered me after 
the first day of use.  I sometimes find that iOS does strange things with 
braille translation, but that it's no more or less because of the braille 
display. One thing I will warn you of, and this may not apply to you if you are 
not in North America, is that if you need to get the Smart Beetle repaired, 
HIMS Support has gotten much worse in the past year. For example, I asked for a 
RMA about 10 days ago to return a Braille Edge, and they still have not 
returned either my email or phone call. I still hear of people who have some 
good experiences with their support, but I'm hearing more bad things than good 
these days. 

I did a review on the Smart Beetle, feel free to read it and ask any other 
questions you may have.

I have this brail device, in fact it is a good one, very small, smart and 
ergonomic. But in connection with ios, I feel that sometimes lettters and signs 
are skipped while typing. Just like some characters are swallowed while typing 
so that you can have a phrase like: the weather is nice today, the weathr is 
nce today.

Regards

Subject: Smart Beatle 14-Cell Braille Display

 

Blind Bargains is selling two gently used Smart Beatle 14-cell Braille displays 
with one year warranties.  Do any of you have experience with this display?  I 
have a Hims OnHand and like the feel of the Braille.  Is this display prone to 
repairs?
