    This keyboard is perfect. It is a little small compared to a full sized keyboard so it takes a little adjustment. The feel of the keys is very nice and the layout thoughtfully includes a lot of useful extra keys. This keyboard has quality backlighting that can also be turned off or set to a few different brightness levels

    You are missing out on half the surface experience if you don't purchase the keyboard cover. That being said, this doesn't feel cramped, the layout is only slightly thinner than my full sized mechanical gaming keyboard. The trackpad is nice and large, as well as responsive. And it works great to protect the tablet screen when on the go.

    This magnetic snap on keyboard is great. It is durable enough for protective ease of mind when you close it yet doesn't add much weight to your tablet. It comes off easily (with slight pull) but holds strong when you are not pulling on it. I do wish however they had some sort of sliding panel than covered the keys when you weren't using the keyboard. For example, if I have the keyboard completely turned around so I could hold and use the tablet like a standard tablet I end up holding many of the keys which feels slightly awkward.

    The surface go is not nearly as efficient without this keyboard. The integrated mouse-pad and backlit keys make this super easy to use and get use to. This was purchased in conjunction with a Surface GO for my little sister who is an Engineering student and absolutely loves this. She uses it EVERY day.

    An overpriced keyboard that's surprisingly sturdy.

    Like all the Surface products, this is overpriced. However, it has held up surprisingly well, despite it's somewhat flimsy feel. After nearly two years of frequent use, it's still working well with no obvious unresponsive keys or backlights out. Should be priced around $35 for what you're getting though, or included with the Surface Go since I've yet to see any Surface device be usable 100% of the time without a keyboard attached.

    Plain and simple, this is a keyboard that does its job. Only complaint is that too much pressure on the board (if you're holding the laptop at a weird angle) can make the touchpad difficult to use, because this is a little bit flimsy, but still really good.

    From attachment to ease of use, this is the perfect keyboard for me. I've go through other tablet keyboards for kindles and they were just too small or a pain always syncing. This is really a 'plug and play' and not so small that you are constantly overlapping when trying to type.

    Snaps right on with the Magnets, folds back easily to use to Surface Go as a Tablet instead of a laptop. keys are spaced just right. Not too Thick or Thin. I love the backlit keys makes for easy typing in low light settings. The Larger Trackpad is amazing!

    Got this Keyboard for my girlfriend's Surface GO and it worked perfectly, just the Surface GO was always slow and not even worthy of calling it a Netbook. However if you are happy with your Surface GO, the keyboard is a great addition to it and has no issues.

    Bought to work with Microsoft Surface Go and it works great! Use it to type in Microsoft Office apps as well as social media which makes it much faster than the on screen keyboard. Also protects the screen when folded up. It automatically (magnetically) connects straight to the Go. Love it!

    Great keyboard. Really enjoy the back lit keys. Track pad works great and has a nice feel. The "magnetic coupling" is quite strong, and will not accidentally separate from the computer easily. Only negative I could say, is the keys are a bit clacky when typing.

    I love how the keyboard doesn’t add any additional weight which is great if you’re a college student, use public transportation, or travel for work. Being able to attach the keyboard has been very convenient in class when I want to use the tablet for note-taking.

    Pros: all the keys i want to use are present without having to use the function key. Thin, mostly silent. Cons: pricey I really like this keyboard, it has good tactile feel, integrates perfectly with me surface go and the UAG case that holds my surface.

    This keyboard is great. Feels great, types great and even is back lit. A little expensive but worth it. For the surface though go with the surface pro 6 and the surface go is under powered plus with the pro you will get the same keyboard but larger and with fingerprint option.

    If you purchase a Surface Tablet I wouldn't go without the keyboard. Some things you just can't do without the keyboard. It is worth the money and time. I found this one open box and immediately scooped it up. Makes some navigation and selection easier to do.
