I find the reviews also very critical! I am extremely surprised how good this keyboard. The lighting looks great. And I am always thrilled how well I can write on this keyboard. The raised angle is a great idea and if you like it flat, you go also. I write it not slower than on my laptop keyboard after I acclimated myself a little. And I do not have small hands. The keys are all large enough. The magnet is surprisingly strong and you need the right force to resolve it. The protection it affords when to fold is also very good. Locate the keyboard on the go perfectly. Only a numeric keypad I miss, but there would not even fit on it. At home I use anyway an external large keyboard. To the material, I find this type material is a good choice to which it indeed rests on the screen and as I material is much better than similar aluminum All in all: Good work Microsoft.
