Wedge Mobile Keyboard for Business

I bought this bluetooth keyboard because I heard that the Samsung ATIV PC500T keyboard attachments were not that good. This keyboard works great with it and I have had no problems. It works fine in Windows 8. The keyboard is small, but not too small where it is uncomfortable to type. The keyboard cover is also nice and sturdy where it protects the keyboard when not in use. It also can be used as a tablet holder and can be flexibly adjusted to get the right angle. The keyboard cover is made of solid rubber and is very sturdy to hold up your tablet's weight and keep it there. It requires 2 AAA batteries which are included. Once you put in the battery, the keyboard starts immediately looking for a device to pair with. Although it is a little pricey, the build quality is great and you can tell it will last for a long time.

Likes: Very portable, nice key action, sleek styling, actually looks more sleek than the Apple keyboard, one piece metal body looks great, has wonderful heft and feels very solid under fingers, build quality rivaling the Apple although it's a just a very slight bit "shoddier". Dislikes: Definitely too small for serious typing for all but smaller of hands. The black plastic "wedge" housing on bottom has VERY slightly irregular gap where it meets the metal body (being very nit picky here). Battery tray, while a REALLY ingenious idea with the push-to-pop-out design, makes it hard to remove the batteries. Needs some sort of ribbon or something to aid battery removal. Possibly a very easy thing to address in design. And it needs rubber feet for the plastic "wedge". Bluetooth powers off too quickly to save battery. After 5-10 min or so of idle it goes to sleep and takes about a second after an initial key press to wake up. Annoying. The Apple keyboard does not have this problem and still gets outstanding battery life. Recommended to: Those with large hands would definitely find this cramped. Or for someone who, for instance, writes for a living. It took some time for me to get used to the close key spacing. I like that it takes up very little room on the table and looks good in the livingroom where it's used. The build quality and industrial design, finally something as cool as an Apple product that's not an Apple! Highly recommended! 1/23/2013 Update The annoying problem of it going to sleep is proving to be increasingly annoying. Once it went nuts and typed an endless string of a single letter when it wakes up, I have to move the focus somewhere else by clicking on the desktop background or something that has no typing input and go back to the input field in a little while when the keyboard's done throwing its fit. It only happened once. But it's got other quirks, like the battery indicator blinks to indicate the batteries are out except if you take them out and put them right back, the same batteries, the keyboard works on happily. This happened 4 or 5 times. At first it was exasperating that all these fresh batteries I put in would run out so quickly, in a matter of days, I thought they were all stale from the store. 8/2/2016 Update Several years and OS's later there is good news. Both keyboards (I bought a second years ago) work perfectly paired to Windows 10 machines. The slight lag from sleep/wake is still there. But neither keyboard has gone nuts in Win10. No more battery indicator problem, I can't remember the last time that problem came back. The industrial design is still fresh and pleasing. Still love the compact size. I've changed mice several times in the mean time. Keyboards stayed.

I really like this keyboard. Works good so far w/ Windows 10 mobile. No issues w/ lag, or keystrokes not being recognized. The keyboard itself is smaller than what I expected from looking at the pictures; I guess I didn't look close enough at the measurements. However, this isn't a bad thing as it is more portable than what I was expecting. The keys have very nice feel; as good as most laptop keyboards I have used. The key spacing is a little tight because of the size of the keyboard, but is very usable. I wouldn't want to use it as my normal daily use keyboard, but is quite serviceable for business trips and other short use conditions where portability is important. The only minor issue I have had so far is that the key repeat rate can be faster than expected / some delay when showing the effects of key repeats. I mainly notice this when backspacing, as on a laptop I would hold down the backspace button and let off of it when when the cursor gets where I want. I often notice that it is better for me to repeatedly press the backspace key instead of hold it down w/ the keyboard because if I hold down the backspace key it will end up deleting more letters after I release it. This could also be an issue w/ windows 10 mobile though. As has been mentioned in some other reviews, the keyboard cover is very heavy compared to the keyboard. I don't think I will use it because of that.

Okay, I got two duds. The first one had a short and just brushing the "a" key would fire it off. The second one was DOA. But fortunately, I persevered. The third time was the charm in more ways than one. I got a working unit, and it was a "business" unit, which ships in a plain brown box, but otherwise is identical to the consumer version. Oh, and it cost me about $20 less! Yeah, the box on the consumer version is "cute", but unnecessary as you won't likely be putting this back in its box anytime soon. I'm using it with a Samsung Series 7 Slate running the RTM of Windows 8, and the combination is fantastic. Yeah, it's tiny. I'm a large guy -- 6'2" -- and I have large hands, so while it's a bit cramped, the key travel is adequate, it's light, and the rubber cover keeps it protected in my bag (and serves to turn the keyboard on/off -- brilliant!). For a mobile warrior, that's important. The cover protects the keyboard, and as you no doubt know, doubles as a sturdy and amazingly practical stand for your tablet. I think I just reduced my luggable weight by a pound or two...another great benefit. So while I won't be able to do crazy long writing sessions on it because of the small size, most other times it will more than suffice...like now, as I write this review on my lunch break. 4 stars -- if it were a couple inches longer, 5. Highly recommended.

Great little keyboard.. Using with a Samsung tablet, and on occasion with my laptop.. Sturdy, types well, small for portability. Just a good keyboard.

Fantástico, moderno y eficiente si te gustan los gadgets es la opción

Love this product. I have always had high regard for Microsoft hardware. Previously, I used to use a Microsoft Wireless Desktop 2000 setup. While that was good, it was also bulky and made it difficult to carry it around. This baby is just beautifuly. Works with all my devices (phones - android, iOS, windows phone), tablets and desktop and laptop. The built in stand is a huge bonus and overall, its awesome. One caveat is that the keyboard itself is slightly small. So, there is some learning curve involved. My typing speed reduced from 75 words per minute to 71 words per minute...to give you an example.

タブレット用のキーボードを探して、家電量販店では見つからず。通販でいくつか購入。 これがまた、自分に合わないこと。 散財した末に、デザイン的に気に入りこのキーボードを購入(値段的に躊躇はしたが)。 基本Windows用なので、機能の制限はもちろんあるが、文字の入力には問題ないので、仕事には支障はなし。 気に入っております。

The keyboard itself is great! but just a bit small for my hands I think. I'm enjoying it but would've preferred a slightly bigger one.
