Awesome addition to my Microsoft family.

Is Braddock love the vibrant color and this Microsoft type cover works like it should. The portability is great, no flaws. Love the material too! It comes apart easily and the magnetic attachment is great!

The smooth glass trackpad has excellent sensitivity, and scrolling

I got a surface pro 3, and decided to superman it with pro 4 accessories. This keyboard was a clear step up from the pro 3 keyboard, with a larger trackpad and more space between the keys, so that your hand is no longer crammed for space. The keys depress extremely well, and definitely have the feel of a 'real' keyboard. The smooth glass trackpad has excellent sensitivity, and scrolling, clicking, and trackpad gestures are all a breeze.The cover itself also works great to turn on/ off your surface. Remember that, once the cover is open and the surface is setup like a keyboard, you can slide the cover forward a bit towards the screen and it'll magnetically stick on and elevate the keyboard (this way, you aren't typing completely flat).Also, to ADJUST SCREEN BRIGHTNESS: Hit Fn + Del or Backspace. The sun buttons over the F1 and F2 keys are to adjust the keyboard backlighting.Hope this review helps! 5/5 and a must have for any surface pro owner.Ver más

Huge improvement over the Pro 3 type cover; excellent add-on for a Surface Pro device

I own a Surface Pro 3. I already owned the type cover made for the Pro 3, but then I saw that there was a newer one for the Pro 4 that remains compatible with the Surface Pro 3 model. I have always found the type cover for the Pro 3 okay. It did its job, but was nothing to write home about. I figured it was worth a shot to try out the newer type cover to see if it enhanced my experience. I have to say I do not regret this purchase at all. This type cover is a massive improvement over the previous version.The keys are actually spread out on the new version. They also appear to stick up more than the keys on the other type cover. However, because the keys all stick together on the old model, maybe that is just giving me the allusion that they don't stick up as much. Typing on the newer model is much easier! It allows for a natural keyboard motion, whereas with the old model I found myself making typos constantly because the keys were so close to each other. I have to correct my typing far less frequently with the new model. I can also type much faster with the new model. The feel of the keyboard is just fantastic, and I honestly think it is preferable to the built-in keyboard on my HP work computer. The type pad is still a bit flimsy, but it does feel sturdier to me than the previous model. I think the new type cover does improve the lap sitting experience.Overall, visually the new one just looks nicer. Perhaps the back lit keypad gives it a more refined look, not sure. The track pad is now improved with a glass surface. It's much easier to use and is also a bit bigger. The look of it just also adds to the keyboard making this one look less cheap. I bought this in the teal color and think it's a great shade. I am not someone who likes bright and flashy colors, so this is perfect for those who like some color, but not overwhelmingly bright ones.Personally I think this is worth buying. I am not sure how the price compares to other keyboards, but for one specifically made for the Surface Pro devices, it is a great asset to the Surface Pro. I have been using my Surface Pro 3 more since buying the upgraded keyboard. If you were someone with no type cover, you should definitely give this a shot. If you were like me and already had an older model type cover, I think this is still worth considering. For myself, knowing I plan to keep and continue using my Surface Pro 3 for more years, it was worth investing $100 to update the type cover.I have a few cons to point out, but nothing major in my opinion. You do notice oils from your fingers on the keyboard. This is somewhat unavoidable as I notice this on most of the keyboards I use. Also it would be nice if the type cover had somewhere to hold your stylus pen. The build quality could continue to be improved upon for future models so it's less flimsy. But the actual keys feel very solid, as does the track pad. Also it'd be nice if Microsoft included a type cover with the purchase of a Surface Pro since the majority of owners will want a keyboard. Overall I think this is a 5 star product and worth the money.

Quality of products

I used this keyboard in my surface pro 7. This is working well but my expectations is much higher than I received my product.

Loving My Keyboard Now

I'd owned my Surface Pro without a type cover for a while now, and using the pro without the type cover was definitely wasn't ideal. I really enjoy using this and things have changed dramatically. The keyboard is now more tactile despite having a thin keyboard. The trackpad now also works more responsively and accurately. It also clicks onto the surface pro magnets and can be detached effortlessly. Last thing, the backlit keys make it super practical especially since I tend to study in the dark.Ver más

Great improvements made on an excellent keyboard cover

I'm typing my initial impressions on the Surface Pro 4 Type Cover and am impressed with the subtle changes that have been made to this very necessary accessory. In the first place, I want to confirm that this fits the Surface Pro 3 exactly as it should, with no discernible difference in fit from the Surface Pro 3 Type Cover that I had previously used. Some of the salient improvements include the different spacing between keys, the improved stiffness of the backing, and the larger trackpad below the spacebar.At first, it hardly seems that the changes made to the keys could make a difference. After all, the SP3 Type Cover and the SP4 Type Cover are exactly the same width and height (thus there is no additional space utilized in spacing out the keys). Yet, I notice a change in the way the SP4 feels, which personally affects how accurately I type and how comfortable it is to do so, compared to the SP3 keyboard. One obvious difference is the gapping that is now present between the keys--the keys do not feel bunched together on a single plane as they once did but instead are raised above a lower "floor" in the keyboard (note that this does not add to the thickness of the cover itself).I was particularly looking to see if the SP4 Type Cover "bounces" as much as the SP3. It does not, in my opinion. This appears to be an issue that Microsoft took note of and addressed in their latest iteration. The cover still has some flex, but it remains very solid under my large hands as I pound on the keys. Overall, my impression is that this typing on the Type Cover not as satisfying as typing on the very best laptop keyboards, but given some time, it may be hard to notice the difference.One last obvious improvement is in both the size and the surface of the trackpad. It is both wider and taller than the trackpad on the SP3 cover. It has a smooth, glass-like surface (though I'm fairly certain it is not made of glass) and is very responsive. Sliding your fingers over it feels natural and there is a lot more surface area now to do multitouch functions with ease. Despite its increase in size, it does not interfere with or register false clicks as I type. (In regard to its intuitive nature, the cursor/arrow moves about halfway down the screen when moving your finger slowly from the top to the bottom of the trackpad. Moving your finger faster moves the cursor all the way to the bottom when covering the same distance across the trackpad.)As a bonus feature, this keyboard sports an additional key. On the right side near the bottom, just left of the arrow keys is a key with three lines inside a little box. Pressing it brings up the menu that corresponds to the right click of the mouse. You can do this by tapping the trackpad with two fingers simultaneously as well, but this key provides another helpful means of opening that menu.The keyboard still lights up as before, and though both Type Covers have a "Function Lock" key, I never noticed it on the SP3 since it was off to the right. Now it has been moved over to the left next to the "Control" key (as it is on my old laptop), and I found this subtle change to be helpful.All in all, this is a great (and necessary) addition to the Surface Pro 4, and there is much evidence to suggest that this is a useful upgrade for those who already have the Surface Pro 3 Type Cover, especially if they do a lot of typing.

I wish I could use this keyboard on my desktop!

The internet lied to me; they said the Surface 2 Type Cover was compatible with the Surface 4. Well I couldn't get it to work at all! So when payday came I bought the new keyboard. And boy do I Iove it!This keyboard is even better than the Surface 2 Type Cover. I'm someone who types really fast on flat keyboards. And this is about as flat as they come without just becoming non-tactile. It has at least one of each key you need. The keys are illuminated just like the old keyboard. There's a definite difference in texture, but I kinda like it. I used to glide my fingers across the keys while typing, but there's more friction on this one. Keeps you from hitting the wrong key without noticing. The outside feels pretty much the same as the old keyboard, and of course the size fits the laptop as opposed to the old keyboard which was a smaller size. In fact the keyboard helps with that really flimsy feeling that the Surface has; it's got so many hardware features that for it to be as light and thin as it is, feels like you're gonna break it by breathing on it. So get this keyboard cover and that'll take away the pain.- The keyboard cover is very susceptible to coffee spills. If you get coffee on your keyboard cover, make sure to panic and grab the paper towels immediately and then proceed to apply pressure with an irresponsible amount of towels to the surface of the keyboard until it turns a slightly darker color, then place in front of a fan or something until it dries. It'll be fine.- The new keyboard has one of two "height" settings. One is the regular where it's sitting flat on the table, and the other is slightly raised up using a magnet. I don't know why anyone would want this, but I've found it's very useful when you're sitting on an uneven surface and still have to type, like sitting up in bed.- The mouse trackpad is SO much better than the Type Cover 2. It used to be practically unusable. The new one not only works, but is bigger and more compatible with modern gestures like two-finger scrolling, zooming, and hold-for-right-click. Feels nice on the fingers too.- Now, you know how you have the F keys up top that double as some other kind of action, and how you'd have to hold down the function key to toggle any of the F keys? Well you can still do that, but now if you just tap the Fn key you can toggle it to where you can hit the F keys to do F1 thru F12 without having to hold the function key down. It's really useful for people like me who assigned hotkeys to the F keys.- That about sums it up; closing the cover still puts the Surface into sleep mode just like before. I got it in turquoise because I felt I should stop buying stuff in black all the time.

Makes your tablet an ultrabook!!

Amazing keyboard! I bought this for my surface pro 3, works flawlessly. The keyboard keys are well-improved from the previous version. Track pad by far is the largest improvement. Now its glass and feels a lot smoother to use. Although not quite as good as Mac track pads, but its getting closer. Probably one of the best typing and input experiences you can get on a windows device. Very comparable to the top ultra book keyboards. I would say its even better than the XPS 13 keyboard and track pad. Overall although a little pricy, it is a must have for any surface owner, and you are looking into getting a better typing experience with the older surface pro 3, it may be worth an upgrade.Ver más

Un Gran Teclado

La Surface Pro 4, es un gran dispositivo, pero, es un hibrido, por lo que, para sacarle todo el jugo posible, este teclado es el compañero ideal.Se conecta mediante unos pines magnéticos en unas entradas ubicadas debajo de la Surface Pro.Este teclado, es original de Microsoft, y es compatible, -aparte de la Surface Pro 4-, con la Surface Pro 3.👍👍PUNTOS POSITIVOS👍👍-Es un teclado ergonómico: La separación de teclas, y su mecanismo de tijera, hace que escribir con el, sea muy cómodo.-Es retroiluminado: Algo muy bueno por si necesitamos escribir en un espacio con poca luz o a oscuras, podemos regular el iluminado de las teclas con el mismo teclado.-El Touchpad esta excelente, tiene un tacto muy suave, se siente como cristal con terciopelo, la precisión es también muy buena, y podemos hacer sin problemas, los gestos de Windows 10.-Es suave al tacto al estar construido en terciopelo.-Nos sirve para proteger la pantalla del Tablet, al estar conectado mediante los pines magnéticos.P.D. Los teclados que se venden en Amazon MX están en Ingles, por lo que recomiendo que, al configurarla, pongan la distribución de teclado en Ingles Internacional, pues, así, con Alt Derecho+N podremos escribir la Ñ.Ver más
