This keyboard is one of the best things I have ever bought! I have been using an on-screen keyboard for years, so when I saw this click-on keyboard for my new Surface Pro, I had to have it.
And I am so glad I did. It is backlit too, so no matter where I am, I can see clearly…
Lovely keyboard for the small Surface Go 2. I bought this to upgrade from the older version which was for the Surface Go. This version is different as it has an additional magnet just below the track pad to keep secure the keyboard against the Surface Go 2 when it is closed. However, I have found this new feature to be poor as the magnet is so weak it barely holds. It doesn’t help that the keyboard arrived slightly concave so it doesn’t fit flush against the screen. On first attaching the keyboard it was extremely stiff, so it did not hold very well in the tilted position. However, this improved after time and use and is fine now. Overall, I would recommend this keyboard as an accessory to the Surface Go 2 or 3. However, if you have larger hands or find typing on a small keyboard difficult you may want to avoid it – although there is not really a larger alternative that is attachable so you would have to use a separate keyboard connected by Bluetooth.
I ask myself why did I buy the cheap alternative first, Altec type keyboard for about 30 quid, Price, looked the same, yet a year later it the cheap alternative stopped. so, I purchase the Microsoft, this product is branded, soft damper keys, all the Microsoft option keys work seamlessly with the Go3 surface as it should do, it is a Microsoft product! keyboard has bigger palm rest area either side of the mouse pad, to make typing correct, as you can rest your hand comfortably and type with comfort, I can touch type so this is a great advantage to me, Colour is a light blue very light grey, the fabric has a felt feel, warm comfortable, I understand there are others without this felt cover more a stretched rubbery flat surface, I have tried both and prefer this fabric, Also I have had black, in contrast I prefer this light blue or very light grey felt.
Improves the functionality of the Surface Go when using it for work, making typing much easier than the touch screen keyboard. The touchpad also works well, I haven’t needed to buy a separate mouse.
As usual arrived super fast. This type cover is the standard (non Alcantara) type cover but its still a great keyboard and trackpad for the surface go. Despite the smaller size of the Surface Go the keyboard is comfortable to work on for long periods and the trackpad is surprisingly large and has a glass surface so input is super smooth and comfortable.
This keyboard does have a backlight which has three brightness settings.
Would highly recommend
A cheaper alternative to buying the MS version.
It works.
All the connecting slots and grooves are in the right place.
It does feel a little flimsy, it’s probably not for heavy duty use, but fine for holiday pictures and emails.
I ordered the ice blue keyboard and ice blue arc mouse. The keyboard is grey and does not match the colour of the arc mouse which is definitely a light blue. The description on the keyboard box says the alacantra is a two tone gray. I inputted the serial number on the sticker on the keyboard packing to google and it came up as ice blue. So either I have a grey keyboard in the wrong box or the ice blue is simply marketing junk I fell for. Still a lovely little keyboard. But beware it is not blue just grey
I bought a cheaper bluetooth keyboard initially. It was cheap, plasticky and flimsy. And would not link to my Go 2. This keyboard charges from the tablet and linked immediately. The keys are sturdy with good feedback. At full price, it would be a lot to pay so glad I found this at a good discou
You can’t fault this – it both protects the Surface and has a truly excellent keyboard. It is a quality product and well worth paying the price over cheaper alternatives.
Fantastic for attaching to the tablet/laptop and taking it outside to write in the garden. Lightweight and the lovely suede backing makes also for a great cover when closed over the screen. Keys are extremely responsive and quiet.
This is great for turning your tablet into a keyboard. It attaches itself really as it is magnetic and you can’t really go wrong. To detach it you just pull it apart from the tablet. The keys are okay although a little different to my older laptop and take a bit of getting used to as they are nearer together. I wanted to replace my laptop and my tablet so buying this with the Surface Pro allowed me to do this. The product is very light to carry with you so ideal for someone who is on the move.
Great keyboard that looks nice and types well, with the advantage of a lit keyboard which makes it a great way to see what you’re typing in dim light.
The downside is it’s very expensive for what it is, and as it’s sold as a cover and due to its price it should somehow cover both the top and back of the surface go, as I’m still going to have to buy a separate cover/case as the keyboard doesn’t protect the computer itself.
Great product, but frustratingly first one supplied had a fault (double typing, capitals, and keys doing wrong functions) and I wasted some time with Microsoft support as I thought it was my settings. Amazon sent a new one which is fine.
Comfortable, barely flexes, lovely key travel. Only two problems 1. Click sound like an old mechanical keyboard (only an issue in quiet places). 2. It’s a light material, and it will get split on, mitigated that it can be wiped with a warm cloth (so that’s pretty special).
If you have a surface go you should get but look around for getting this at 90ish not more.
It is a brilliant quality keyboard, the touchpad is even bigger than the Surface Pro keyboard’s touchpad. The only aspect and annoyance that you may find yourself facing are going to the compact size of the keyboard. It is a proper keyboard, with alt, control, windows keys, arrow keys. However, it is condensed into such a small form factor. I find my hands needed to adjust when using the keyboard, however over time you get used to it, and then going back to a larger keyboard feels weird. The quality overall is very premium. Alcantara is so nice, however more prone to getting sweat stains on it than the traditional black cover. All in all, very pleased with the product, however with big hands it may feel very uncomfortable. I was able to type around140WPM with it, the distance between the keys helps since you do not have to travel far from the home row. Then again I can type 160WPM with a bigger keyboard.
The keyboard feels high quality. I am glad I chose it. It snapped into place onto the new Surface Go and the two have been together ever since, loving and protecting each other. I don’t use a carry bag or case. You can guess what I am using to type this review.
