HB187

I purchased a replacement keyboard (OEM) once before, it was almost $250, this time based on the age I tried to use the on screen keyboard but that wasnt working. I looked at these that dont charge like the OEM but wasnt sure it was going to work, although when I saw this at the super special price I figured it was worth the gamble. To my surprise the fit an finish of this keyboard is actually nicer than the factory MS one, the keys are smooth and precise, it has a simple process to turn off the trackpad when needed. Charging was simple and even if the internal batteries at some point fail, the charging cable is small and goes right in the side of the surface pro and does not get in the way of anything. This item is amazing, they created a better than OEM at a tenth of the price, I think I grab a spare so I wont need to worry next time I spill on it or break it. Get off that fence and order one!

Works great. Connected via bluetooth to my surface pro 5 with no issues. Functions as it should. Quality product.

It's a good bang for your buck. I had to switch out my old keyboard and this came up to be a great replacement. I've had it for a couple months now, so I've noticed it's pros and cons. The batter life is amazing. I find myself only charging it probably like twice in a span of 2 weeks, sometimes twice in a month. A few cons is that it'll disconnect and ill have to manually put it back. And just a few moments ago it had stopped allowing me to type, but the mouse was working(though I don't know if it was just the keyboard being an issue since it went back to normal after a restart on both.) But overall its a decent keyboard.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED KEYBOARD! I'm a writer and type all day long. I've had two Surface Pro computers and love the design. But this new keyboard has made my computer feel new, too. It has the look and feel of the original keyboard--but added functionality. Because this is bluetooth (unlike the original keyboards), it doesn't have to be attached to the computer to be used. This makes it much more useful! For example, you can now set your monitor further away and still have your keyboard at the right distance. You can put your surface on a stand to raise it a bit (recommended, easier to view!). You can even turn your Surface on its side and then instantly have the functionality of a portrait-style monitor (like your phone). The advantage here is that you can see an entire printed page as you write, giving you a better idea of pace. It's an especially useful feature that used to be expensive and difficult to add. Now you just add this keyboard, get a small stand for your surface, turn it on its side, and voila! It's like having a whole new computer! TIP: If you're using the keyboard separate from the computer, then it lays flat on the desk (because it's the magnetic connection that lifts it at an angle. A simple washcloth, rolled up is just the right height and stays in place! It's a simple way to make this keyboard perfectly comfortable when it's detached. UPDATE: First, I've written an entire novel, PhotoPlay on this keyboard--over a million keystrokes! So it's clearly great to type on! NEXT: After a year (and millions of keystrokes!) I had an issue with the keyboard shutting off because the battery was low but didn't give me an indication (though the USB charging still works). I contacted Arteck on FaceBook and they responded quickly to send me a new keyboard. That's what I call service! I highly recommend this keyboard!

UPDATE Yeah... Yeah, no, this thing just took twenty minutes straight to connect, flashing between connected and disconnected constantly, its little blue connection light never turning off. Get any other wireless keyboard, this one is trash. ORIGINAL It's satisfying to type on -- great feedback on the keys. The mousepad is incredibly sensitive, but nothing you can't get used to. Unfortunately it can't stay connected to save its life. Sometimes it'll sync up with Bluetooth just fine -- then, sometimes, it'll lie. Computer will show it as connected, but it just doesn't work. Reconnecting it is incredibly frustrating, as it'll show as connected, then disconnect. So you have to reconnect it again, and then it'll disconnect. Sometimes leaving it alone for 5-10 minutes lets it do its thing, but that's incredibly stupid.

Bought as a replacement for a years-old MS keyboard which came with the Surface. The minor downsides compared to the MS product: it's a little heavier, down to the battery I guess. The action feels a little more "clicky" and the plastic a little lower quality than the MS keyboard. To be clear though, this isn't a Fisher Price "My first keyboard" and it's nice to use. The Enter key is oblong and not an L-shape. And the fabric feels a little more synthetic than the MS one. These are all little deficiencies, though and without the advantage of the MS keyboard to compare against, don't think I'd have noticed. Downsides out of the way, the BT connection transforms the usability of the machine. I can place the screen on the other side of the desk, at the end of a desk sharing the screen, or on the tray table on a train or plane and work with the keyboard in my lap. I've dropped the kick-stand on the Surface into the magazine slot on a plane seat back and worked with the keyboard on the table, comfortable facing a screen at head height. The magnet is strong enough to hold the keyboard onto the Surface, with the keyboard dangling from the machine and battery life isn't an issue. It just makes using the Surface as a laptop an immensely more comfortable and enjoyable experience. Add to that the cost saving against the MS product and it's hard to make a case against this.

otimo produto. Rápida entrega e ótima embalagem.

Hasta ahora a funcionado bien. Tengo como un mes con el teclado y todo va bien.

I recently purchased this Surface keyboard from Amazon, but unfortunately, it does not match the quality of the original keyboard. There is no light indicator on the function keys, which makes it difficult to use. It requires pressing Function Key along with other key. The touchpad also does not provide the smooth and responsive feel of the original Surface laptop keyboard. Additionally, since this keyboard requires charging, it is difficult to determine the battery percentage, which is quite inconvenient. Overall, I regret buying this product. In my opinion, it is better to upgrade your old Surface device with an original keyboard rather than purchasing this alternative.

Very good product, I appreciate being able to afford the keyboard that works with the surface. My work gave me the tablet but no keyboard, so it was on my dime. Thank you
