If you want a really small one I've been happy with this:

Wouldn't recommend for extended typing though.

Thanks. Do you only connect Dex + XReal + Keyboard with no mouse? I'm worried no mouse will be uncomfortable.

I actually don't have any sort of Dex/AR setup. Currently only have my phone's screen. Admittedly I've only tested it. Haven't actually done a coding session yet. So total typing time on that keyboard is minimal. So I guess all I can say is I'm happy with the build quality and design. The bluetooth switching between devices is pretty slick.
