Your those of us that miss the firm feeling of a keyboard. This accesory made me decide buying a S7. Very stylish and allows a firmer grip on a cell phone that is bigger and heavier than my last one. Easily removable and can be locked in the rear part of the cellphone.
Be aware that if you apply a glass on the screen, some keys won´t be working well. Space bar needs a firmer touch to get a response some times.

In general this works pretty well. It's like a blackberry and S7 had a baby. You finally get back that great keyboard. The only issue I haven't been able to figure out is how to get the finger print or lock code to work when its on. The case covers up the finger print spot.

The only real option for smartphones now

If you're like me and require a physical keyboard, this is the only real option you have, besides the Blackberry Priv (which has issues of its own)
The only complaint I have about this case is that it doesn't protect the sides of the phone, only the corners - and it's required so that the keyboard works. It would have been nice if Samsung made a more protective case, like an Otterbox or Lifeproof, that had the keyboard in it.

Keyboard works great but found it easier to just use the touch screen. I do like how it shows behind the phone when you don't want to use it. Also like how the phone will adapt screen resolution when keyboard is in use.

I prefer using a keyboard on my phone and the Samsung S7 keyboard fits the bill. It works well enough. I struggle with the keys near the edges, they don't respond as easily as I had hoped. Often I have to press the key at a few different angles to get the letter to appear on the screen. In general I do like the ability to have the keyboard available.

Pros: Doesn't drain battery life, A Phone Case and keyboard, Slim
Cons: Keyboard can only fit this case and it's not universal, with the keyboard the screen is smaller, there are times where the keyboard will mess with the phone (pop windows open and close).

When I first saw this cover, I was excited thinking back to how much I loved my old Blackberry. But after using it a few days I returned it. After years of using a full size smart phone it just doesn't feel the same. It worked great...just not for me.

The keyboard doesn't work unless you push the keys really hard. Only thing this case is good for is to annoy you. Even tried to return it to Best Buy a week after I received it in the mail and they said no because it's not in their system any longer...I wonder why. Very disappointed with this purchase and no options for returning. Threw it in the trash.. waste of $20.

This is the best pseudo blackberry keyboard. I can't stand touch screen typing. I would have given 5 stars, but the cover is not backlit, so I cannot use in the dark. Otherwise, worth every penny.

Coming from Blackberry this was great for me to get a Samsung but there is little knowledge about being able to use a screen protector under it by Samsung accessories and online. I have one on now that I am going to have cut for under the keyboard not to have it and hope for better luck with typing then because sometimes it won't let me type and it's frustrating.

Excellent for Blackberry Users

I've been a Blackberry user for many years mostly due to its EXCELENT physical keyboard. Last 2 years I used Q10 which is a great phone but decided to change for many reasons (some aps won't support BB anymore, need better camera etc). I was considering Blackberry Priv but I don't want to slide that keyboard in and out 1000x a day so I was looking for other options. Another BB anroid phone may be out only at the end of this year (if so) so I was very excited to see SAMSUNG started manufacturing basically BB qwerty keyboard that can be attached to S7 or S7 Edge. This keyboard is definitely an outstanding option for former BB users but I gave it 4 stars due to a fact it's not backlit (in dark you can't see anything at all, the display does not make it lit enough) and although it feels very solid it feels little "rubberish" comparing to original BB keyboard that feels almost "slippery" and your fingers slide easily at the surface for super fast typing. I hope they will manufacture upgrade that would be backlit connected to BlueTooth and use smoother materials for actual keyboard surface. On the other hand the positive thing is you have better grip on it.
Overall, I'm very happy with it because to have a Samsung s7 with it's top notch specs and physical qwerty keyboard in this combo is a great option!
