Customer Ratings & Reviews

Seems delicate while working in the field no problems so far.

This keyboard worked really well when I bought it so I bought the mouse also. Now the keyboard doesn't work at all. I used YouTube to research to fix it and nothing worked. I do not recommend.

After five months, several keys stopped working. All function keys, enter, shift, backspace, etc. Always stayed clean and I never just threw it in a backpack. I don’t know what it could have been from. When it worked, I loved it!

I received this product through the Best Buy Tech Insider Program. Reviewers in this invitation-only program are provided products for the purpose of writing honest, unbiased reviews. I used this keyboard with my Surface Go 2 and am very happy with it! It is easy to type on, easy to remove and re-attach to the Surface (magnetically), and it has a backlight that can be turned on. The keyboard backlight brightness can also be adjusted which is nice. It also has a touchpad which worked well throughout my usage. Additionally, when you close the cover, it protects the surface screen and has a nice fabric exterior for carrying. Overall, this is a great keyboard and pairs well with my Surface Go 2!

DISCLOSURE: “Reviewers in this invitation-only program are provided products for the purpose of writing honest, unbiased reviews.” All the reviews I have seen sing the praises of both the design and function of the keyboard, and it does indeed have unsurpassed design with good tactile keypress and BACKLIGHTING! The Go2 is not intended to be a tablet at all times for all purposes. It is a Windows 10 machine and for that you will want to have the option of using a keyboard with a (very nice) built-in trackpad. The Go2 is a Windows computer, and the keyboard completes the package and allows you the use of a fully functional machine when you need it. I am still amazed at how easy it is to pop to keyboard on and off. I don't mean "it comes off easily" like it doesn't stay on securely because when it is on, it is ON and isn't going to pop off when you pick it up or put it down - what I mean is that you can hold the keyboard and quickly pull it off, and then the darn thing seems like it knows what to do when you put it back on - it pops (securely) right into place without a bunch of fiddling around. Very nice! One of the very nice things about the Go2 line is the very professional appearance you can get from the color-matched accessories. There is nothing like having a Go2 with keyboard, mouse, and pen all coordinated. Around the house, maybe not so much a big deal, but out in the business or educational world, it really does stand out and looks very professional. It also feels pretty nice to have “the look” with your technology. People DO notice. Get the keyboard. There are some nice package deals that include a keyboard, and I can almost guarantee that sooner or later you will get a keyboard for your Go2. Better sooner than later, so you can really enjoy this neat little machine from day one! Go fancy with the nice Alcantara Signature cover – you deserve it and for a few bucks more it really looks nice and complements the appearance of the Go2. Save a few bucks and get the black plastic cover if you like, but really the Alcantara is a nice touch, looks great, and for as long as you are going to be using your Go2, you will be glad you got the Signature cover upgrade every time you use it. Stay Safe!

I found out that the key board must be an exact match for your tablet. I am very disappointed in both Microsoft and Best Buy for not promoting accessories correctly.

I bought this used and it was notated” excellent” but when I try to click on a black box w other wordings “ and I have to click it 3-5 times to it final opens up the site I want to go to and I’m in “Iraq” on a year tour assignment! I can’t take it bak for a new one or upgrade till I get back ! How you help me with this constant annoying issue ?

Not satisfied with the item at all. The item was delivered on December 2nd 2021 at my front door after purchasing it from Best buy Savannah ga in November 27th 2021. The return date ended on 16th January 2022 and the charging issue started soon after that. Now I am having a problem with this brand new high end tablet

The protective cover is good but the aluminum stand is not strong. The stand is not able to carry the weight of the system, keep collapsing

This accessory is a must have to pair with your Surface Go. It’s snaps right in and is recognized right away. Plus it acts as protection for your screen. Typing papers on it was a breeze as every letter inputted was picked up. If you are investing in a top quality product this item is the one to have! The build quality is very good and is comfortable to use. “Reviewers in this invitation-only program are provided products for the purpose of writing honest, unbiased reviews.”

The Signature Type cover was the perfect addition to my Surface Go. Fitment is perfect and installation is super-simple. It just magnetically snaps into place. While the keys may be small for some, this is a tablet keyboard that isn't designed to replace a full-sized desktop keyboard. That being said, the keys are large enough and spaced sufficiently apart that I don't find myself missing keystrokes or feel overly cramped while typing. The touchpad is responsive and accurate with a glass-like surface for smooth cursor movements. Having the ability for the keyboard to lay flat on the table or slightly elevated is a great feature and, even in the elevated position, the keyboard still feels solid. The exterior of the cover is a nice feeling faux leather that is soft to the touch and lends a little luxury to an otherwise basic piece of electronic equipment. After using the Signature Type Cover for the past couple of weeks, the only possible complaint I could even imagine is that the keyboard isn't backlit which is something I'm used to on all my other keyboards. However, I understand the power consumption issues that can go along with that so I don't fault Microsoft for not adding that functionality in. Doing so would likely have required an internal battery (which would obviously make this sleek cover heavier and bulkier) or come at the cost of battery life on the Surface. Since that's just a minor annoyance and my own personal preference, I can't justify giving the Signature Type Cover anything other than 5 stars. ****NOTE: I am a member of Best Buy's Tech Insider Network.

Keyboard doesn’t light up in dim environment. Also I a couple of the keys would stick.

Would not recommend . Overpriced keyboard. Pass on this and get surface pro

I will preface this review first by saying that I am a Best Buy Technical Insider and Reviewers in this invitation-only program are provided products for the purpose of writing honest, unbiased reviews. The Keyboard cover is a must buy item, Not only does it provide protection from the elements and accidents, It also makes using the Surface Go so much easier to use, instead of the onscreen keyboard. The individual key feedback or return is spot on, not too much or too little, you do not have to press hard to use. I have medium to large hands and I am able to put each of my finger tips on the home keys without issue, yes it is tight but fine none the less. This keyboard is great for lightning keyboardist all the way down to the finger punchers. The mouse pad that is on the board is also very nice, the click feature is spot on. I was able to left click without issue as well as right click for menus too. For those that can type novels in mere seconds, will not have to worry about key lag either. The key strike is instantaneous. I tested this on my lap and at my desk with equally good results. To Install, I just plugged it in and it connected with having any further needed input. I was up and running. The keyboard uses magnets to connect to the tablet and to close when done. I would without a doubt recommend this to friends and family.

That being said, the keys are large enough and spaced sufficiently apart that I don't find myself missing keystrokes or feel overly cramped while typing. If you turn on the backlighting for the keys, there are three different intensity levels to match whatever lighting situation you might be in, from barely visible to nice and bright.

Did not realize the surface go did not come with key board

I have used the keyboard and prefer it over screen typing when doing more involved work. The keys provide passive tactile feedback which is quite nice, however they are not back lit. I find the touch pad provides for smooth and accurate pointer movements and allows smooth web page scrolling when using two fingers. In the past I have not been a fan of such touch pads but I have grown to like this one thereby precluding the need to carry a separate Bluetooth mouse. Since the keyboard can be rotated to the back of the Surface Go 2 the keyboard is disabled in this position so as to allow you to hold the device in your hand without the keyboard causing unintended keystrokes. This I found to be very handy. Closing the keyboard not only protects the screen but it puts Windows to sleep. The combination of the Surface Go 2 and this keyboard/cover makes for a truly stand alone portable workstation and is now my go to device.

“Reviewers in this invitation-only program are provided products for the purpose of writing honest, unbiased reviews.” I received the beautiful Microsoft Surface Go Signature Type Cover to go with the new Surface Go2 tablet.This keyboard easily attaches magnetically with a very secure click in place. It has an amazing chicklet keyboard that has the perfect feel and allows me to type very quickly! It has a responsive large track pad too, and the soft feel of the Platinum cover is awesome - it is so soft. It gives me a better grip and gives it a sophisticated look. The keys can be backlit - your choice, with 3 levels of brightness. A professional look and it puts your tablet to sleep when you close the cover and wakes it up when you open it! If you’re getting a Surface Go, I would highly recommend the Signature Type Cover. It makes life so much more convenient by turning your tablet into a PC!

The Surface Go type cover is a must have if you plan on having a Surface Go tablet/laptop. It is very compact but offers full size capability. It doubles as a cover protector for your Surface Go and fits perfectly aesthetically. It comes with backlit keys which is awesome when working in lowlight or on the go on a road trip, train, or plane. It has a felt like material on the back that helps protect from scratches and provides additional gripping feel when it is closed and you are on the move. Connects very easily via the quick magnet connect and stays connected without issue. This keyboard is definitely a must have and makes the Surface Go more usable and enjoyable at the same time. “I received this product as part of an invitation-only program for the purpose of writing an honest, unbiased review.”
