Microsoft surface products have become known for great keyboards, and this is no exception. This is a superb keyboard. Connects instantly, keystrokes are crisp and comfortable and give the user instant feedback. The keyboard layout is roomy and has a numpad. Very happy with this purchase.

After returning another Microsoft keyboard, I purchased this due to the good reviews and elegant looks. Looks great on my desktop paired with the Surface Mouse. Responsive, good Bluetooth range! Short keystroke ranges allows me to type even faster!

I've owned two of these and they are a wonderful full-size keyboard. The battery notch on top provides some elevation to the keyboard, unlike the Apple Magic Keyboard, which comes out flat

I wanted a keyboard that doesn't require a USB dongle for a price less than $100 so I could use it for Lenovo, Macbook Pro, and Note 10+. I stumbled on Microsoft selling the keyboard for $49.99, but I wanted to wait till the weekday to call them so I could add veterans discount when I purchase the product. Unfortunately they were already sold out and it was still the weekend. So I verified with Bestbuy about price match. They are willing to price match but couldn't view it for some reason for that price, but I could. On the third Best buy rep, after explaining to her the ordeal I was able to get some help by emailing and texting her the photo I took of the product from Microsoft.com, so thank you third rep for helping this broke dude out.
Keyboard pros is minimalist design, typing is great, easy to connect to anything, number keypad is present. The best part is the 12 months of battery life. The cons that I can live with is there is no keyboard light and the FN is going to take time to get use to. It is definitely a nice buy.

Considering that I am using this keyboard to write this review right now, I can confidently say that it is exactly what I was looking for! About a year ago, I tried purchasing the Microsoft full-size Bluetooth mechanical keyboard because I've had great experiences with Microsoft hardware in the past, but I have to say that keyboard was a disappointment. It felt cheap and I did not enjoy typing with it. Nevertheless, after purchasing a Surface Pro 7 a few months later and loving its keyboard cover despite its small size, I figured I should give the full-size Surface-version wireless keyboard a shot, and it certainly does not disappoint!
It was very easy to connect to my Surface Pro, and it seems to have solid battery life. The keys are comfortably spaced apart and they have a nice travel distance without being the big, blocky keys that you see on many other keyboards in this price range. As a result, I would describe this keyboard as having a very accurate and satisfying typing experience. As someone who enjoys typing and types over 100 words per minute, the typing experience means a lot to me, so I really appreciate that this keyboard excels in that regard.
Since I've virtually only ever used laptops, I haven't spent much time using a full-size keyboard, but this keyboard has all the keys on it I want and then some. I'm admittedly not that comfortable with the number pad yet, but I can see it coming in handy, especially because I spend a lot of time working in Excel.
I also love the professional look of this keyboard as opposed to the numerous RGB gaming keyboards available. This keyboard looks right at home in the office. Perhaps the only thing I would knock it for is that it doesn't come in black, but I don't mind the silver all that much.
All in all, I would highly recommend this keyboard to anyone who wants a professional-looking keyboard with a great feel and typing experience.

So, here I am typing on my Surface Keyboard, and it feels really nice. Seriously, it feels like one of the best keyboards I have typed on in a long time. I think I’ll have to type on it for a little bit to figure out exactly how to type on it, but I like the key travel, and I like how solid it feels. To be sure, it is most definitely a chiclet-style keyboard, and for gaming can not match my Logitech gaming keyboard and mouse, but it feels better than any Mac keyboard for sure. It even feels nicer than the keyboard on my Surface Book 2, which is saying something. As far as laptop keyboards, it’s hard to find a better keyboard than the Surface Laptops, but I think this Surface Keyboard may take the crown. It has plenty of keys, including a calculator key, which I find extremely handy, and it has a full keypad on the right-hand side. This is extremely convenient for me. I can not stress how many times I have needed the calculator, looking for the short cut on the keyboard, and it’s nowhere to be found. The keypad works well too, and the connection via Bluetooth is solid.
I’ve used other keyboards where when typing a key may repeat multiple times causing letters to streak across the screeeeeeeeeeen while typing. (I repeated the keystroke multiple times manually for effect) This has not been a problem with the Surface Keyboard. It also has all the keys you would expect, such as brightness, volume control, playback, print screen, and even a button reserved for pulling up the settings screen. There’s also a button for pulling up notifications, minimizing screens, locking the computer, and a large button to take a screen-shot. (PrtScn) For office work and productivity, this keyboard has pretty much everything you could want.
I’m also using the Surface Mouse. I had the Surface Mobile Mouse but returned it. The mouse was too flat for my liking and felt a little cheap. The Surface Mouse, which I actually got for $29.99, same price as the Mobile Mouse, is larger, feels more substantial, and has an overall better feel for my large hands. Obviously the Precision Mouse is the king of the crop, top of the line, but it was too large for my use. I find the Surface Mouse to be the Goldi Locks of the bunch. Just right for getting the job done.
I’m trying to complete my mobile workstation, and I think I’m close to finishing it. I have a SurfaceBook 2, Lepow Mobile Monitor, Surface Keyboard, and Surface Mouse. This group of products seems to enable a superior typing experience, precision when using the pointer, and enough screen realestate to write documents, do research, and accomplish much while being on the go. I change desks multiple times a day, go from work, to home, to the Library, all while needing to accomplish my doctoral work. With this set up, I’m able to do my work just as well no matter my location. In fact, this set up seems to be my preferred way to work even compared to have multiple full-size monitors. I own a 32” LG 4k Monitor that is spectacular and an AOC gaming monitor, and they have their place. LG for editing videos and photos and the AOC for gaming, but this set up is more intimate, versatile, mobile, and efficient. The power I’m drawing from using these devices is minimal. Certainly, one of the best ways to accomplish academic tasks I have found, period.
In summary, using the Surface Book 2 as a laptop is a great experience. However, it pales in comparison to using a proper keyboard and mouse. For basic tasks, there is no reason to hook up an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse; however, for doing doctoral work, it almost seems to be a must in accomplishing work efficiently and expediently. I would recommend this set up to anyone who needs a powerful workstation on the go that doesn’t want to compromise versatility, power, and productivity for mobility.

I like the low profile, laptop-style keys. They dont require much force to actuate, which helps me type fast. The battery lasts for a long time without having to recharge, just add new AAA batteries. I also like how all the extra media keys work perfectly with windows. I liked it so much i bought a 2nd one. Well done!

This keyboard provides the keyboard and number pad which provides a great tool for work or home. The key travel has a nice feel and it includes lighted keys for shift and num lock. The lock key is great for security and quickly puts your system to sleep.

If you like typing on a laptop keyboard, which I do, they'll love this device. It's super thin, light, and the fact it runs on 2 AA batteries is perfect. The bluetooth connection works well without any drop outs on the end of the keyboard (one of my laptops has shoddy bluetooth and everything drops on that, but my other laptop is top of the line and never once have I had an issue after over a month of use). It's worth the price if you want something thin, light and aren't into mechanical keyboards.
I actually came to this device from a mechanical keyboard, but with the stay at home order for the pandemic, my wife required I NOT share an office with such a loud keyboard. This has been a great replacement.

Surface Typing Experience with a Surface

I purchased this keyboard after using several different keyboards in the past but never really enjoying the experience of typing. I have owned a Surface Pro 3, 2017 and currently a Pro 8 so I am familiar with the experience. This keyboard definitely matches the experience that I am familiar with the fill and function. This is a must have for individuals that may not be able to use their Surface devices for work/school but really want that experience.

This is a pretty nice keyboard. The keys feel nice and the travel is decent. Love having the full numpad. The Windows specific function keys are pretty useful, especially the notification center key. Only issue is that, being Bluetooth, the keyboard won't wake a sleeping system up by default. You can go into device manager and change to allow the Bluetooth controller settings but your average user might not know this off-hand. Kind of irritating. Also pretty expensive for what you get....but I think I was mostly paying for the design & appearance.

I am using this with a MacBook Pro because I wanted a Bluetooth keyboard with a numeric keypad. My previous keyboard was the mac bluetooth model but it was lacking the keypad. The Surface keyboard has very good key travel and feel. It's comparable to the mac wired keyboard and to my Logitech K810. The only thing it is lacking is the ability to pair to multiple devices. Also, the construction is top-notch.

I saw this in a store once and it was on my mind ever since. I couldn't justify the price, but I think I got it on sale and it was definitely worth it. If you're on the fence, go for it. It's not for everyone (I have a mechanical keyboard for my work computer) but for a family computer, this is a great mix of quality and usability. The keys feel great and the battery life is amazing.
