- A Windows 8 computer
- A Windows Phone 8 (Lumia 920)
- Xbox 360
... And now since the release, the Surface Pro 2 256GB and this keyboard.
Before first use, I was full of positive expectations of this keyboard, because She has great features:
- Right buttons
- Backlight
- Windows functions as keys
- Magnetdock
- Multi-touch touchpad with mouse buttons
All points I could also support the event, outside the past - the touchpad - which was what my overall image destroyed.
To briefly come back to the other positive points:
The buttons are for writing top, very good writing experience!
The weight is not noticeable and you can so easily and from dock or simply fold back to use it as a protection for the back - the putting away of course, as a protection for the glass front.
The backlight is also a dream, looking in darkness no longer, as the home computer.
And now for the touchpad.
It's just like the full keyboard with a felt-like material coated, good in itself, but on the touchpad is a horror!
Due to the substance, it is also very easily accessible from the touchpad down, which would not disturb weird, unless you're something would drag and drop on the screen - annoying, but because the "mouse buttons" eh virtually impossible , Because the keys are physically not feeling, but located at the postion as with a laptop, but just under the fabric. So I can push properly, I will lift up the keyboard and press my thumb on the bottom and press the top with your index finger to the respective button - that it can not be right?
Just why?
Why not take a smooth surface, glass or plastic just like, smooth and especially standing out against the fabric ... verschlimmbessert can say, not all new innovative is simply good!
Schade and simply a wasted potential! I would also again like to know who the good place of MS and it has invented!
Therefore only 3 stars retain, I have you yet, because there is no other choice for a touch keyboard I do not suppose, because I can also rumtippen on the screen. We'll see if something has been improved on the power cover, because for 200 Euro I do not another keyboard with such a touchpad.
Some facts about me, do not think anyone thinks that I just have no idea.
I am a technology person interested and love dealing with Windows (Phone) 8, have idea of computers and study computer science - so if one of my friends has problems then he comes straight to me. ;)
