The Microsoft Surface Pro 12" Keyboard with Slim Pen in Ocean is an exceptional accessory that transforms your tablet into a full laptop experience, offering a quiet to the touch, as well as backlit keyboard, a precision Slim Pen with great feedback, and a sleek, ocean-toned design. Might I add the color is BEAUTIFUL; all while providing instant access to AI assistance through the Copilot key.

Works perfectly with my surface pro 12. Very simple, and I love the texture of it.

Good product. Easy to use and carry.The pen is very useful , easy to use and handle.

I love how soft this keyboard is and it easily connected to my computer i didn’t even have to do anything as soon as the keyboard snapped to the computer the keyboard connected.

Wish I could’ve used a different color. It wasn’t advertised that these are specific to the 12” model (pay attention to the hookup mechanism). Also I wish there was an external case for the felted material on back. But overall the devices functioned as expected.

Great product, I love how it feels and looks, very sleek look. The pen is a great addition too.

The keyboard is a good accessory to have in order to convert your surface to laptop mode. I recommend anyone to buy tge keyboard to enchance the deviceto its full capabilities.

keyboard feels great, nice clicky feel, accurate pen, smooth trackpad, color is just okay though

I love the price and i love the product it is amazdeal

Fast service and reliable. The staffs are friendly.

Okay keyboard, being made for the surface 12" all functions work well. Key travel is a little small. Only downside is the pen keeps the keyboard from fully folding back.

Light weight easy to close very slim fit perfectly with the surface

The keyboard works, I can type in it with no problems. it seems to cover the screen well also. I wish the pen was held more securely.

The color is unique and it’s super lightweight and durable

This Surface Pro Keyboard with Slim Pen 2 completes my Surface Pro setup, providing a seamless 2-in-1 laptop and tablet experience. Priced at around $280, this bundle promises a premium keyboard and a versatile stylus. After weeks of use, I'm impressed by the typing feel and pen precision but frustrated by the high cost and minor issues. Here's my honest review of its design, performance, and value. The keyboard's Alcantara finish feels luxurious and snaps onto my Surface Pro effortlessly, creating a sleek laptop vibe. The built-in tray keeps the Slim Pen 2 charged and secure, which I love. However, I worry the Alcantara might wear out, especially since I opted for the lighter Ocean color. It's compact and portable, but the premium look comes with a premium price tag. Typing is fantastic. The backlit keys are responsive and comfortable for long work sessions. The glass touchpad is smooth for scrolling and gestures, though it feels small. It's great for productivity, but I wish the touchpad offered more space for multi-touch actions, which can feel cramped during heavy use. The Slim Pen 2 excels for note-taking and sketching, thanks to its sharp tip and haptic feedback, which makes apps like Sketchable feel natural. However, the flat design took getting used to, and occasional Bluetooth hiccups required re-pairing, which was annoying. The haptic feature also doesn't work in all apps, but a software update from the respective developers will soon bring this compatibility (here's hoping, at least). This bundle is expensive, especially since the keyboard feels essential for the Surface Pro. The typing and pen performance is top-notch, but the cost, potential Alcantara wear, and pen connectivity issues make me question its value. Overall, it's an excellent add-on for professionals or artists, and most Surface Pro owners should consider it.

I'll cut right to the chase here - if you're buying the new Surface Pro 12", then you need to buy this keyboard and pen set. Could you use a different keyboard? Sure, the Surface Pro supports USB and / or Bluetooth devices, just fine. But with THIS keyboard set, it turns the Surface into the magical "portfolio" computer that you're really looking for. It integrates seamlessly and it JUST WORKS. That's it, no pairing, no plugging in cables, no anything. Snap it together and it's like the devices were made for each other. Largely because they were. The keyboard itself is high quality with a solid typing action (for how slim the keyboard is) with good rebound and fairly silent keystrokes. I'm a pretty quick touch typist (I basically type all day for work) and I was quickly able to get to about my rated speed and accuracy. The keys have backlighting with 3 levels of light for working in darkness. The touchpad is large and does support gestures - I haven't had any issues with tracking and it's nice a smooth with a good click action. The keyboard is fairly stiff for how thin it is and also provides a nice screen cover when the Surface is closed. The pen is an interesting choice in being a flattened oval vs round - the shape does take a bit of getting used to, but it means that it lays flatter against the back of the surface when charging (and the magnetic hold is also strong) meaning that it's less likely to be accidentally knocked off than a round pen would be. Once you get used to the shape, it does write and draw well. I'm not really much of an artist, but I was able to create basic artwork just fine and write notes without issue. Battery life is good and charging is quick. So, on the whole, this is a great package and if you're getting a Surface Pro 12" (or have one already), you really need to pick this one up.

After spending some time with the new Surface Pro 12" and pairing it with the official Surface Pro Keyboard, I can confidently say you need it. Don’t just get the Surface without a keyboard. Its like a peanut butter and jelly sandwich without the peanut butter. First off, the build quality is excellent. The keyboard attaches magnetically and snaps in with a satisfying click, feeling secure whether you’re working on a desk, in your lap, or on a tray table. It’s thin but solid, with just the right amount of flex resistance, and the fabric material on the back feel premium. Just worried when it will gets dirty how will cleaning it be ? Typing on it feels surprisingly good. The key travel is deeper than I expected for such a slim keyboard, and the feedback is crisp and responsive. I guess I have average hand size hand and the keyboard works for me. . The spacing is good, and while the keyboard is compact (due to the 12" frame), it doesn’t feel cramped or compromised. The backlighting is another nice touch. I like the fact you can turn on and off the backlite. For a detachable keyboard, the trackpad is surprisingly close to what you’d expect on a premium ultrabook. But don’t forget it’s a tablet. The Slim Pen is a good addition too. Will take some getting use to. I typically don’t write on my tablet but will start finding ways to use it. I love how it magnetically docks and charges in the top ridge of the Surface. My only minor complaint is the price—it’s definitely not cheap, and you have to buy it separately. However, this keyboard is essential and well worth the investment. It’s not just an accessory—it’s part of the experience.

The excellent Surface Pro Keyboard and Slim Pen are a must have when picking up your Surface Pro. However, it really should be included with the Surface Pro. That being said, this is pinnacle keyboard and trackpad design. Keys have the right amount of travel, and the keyboard itself is a perfect weight. What I’m really excited about is that coming from earlier Surface devices, my palm sweat and grease stained the alcantara handrests so quickly. Alcantara is just on the back of the keyboard so I no longer have to worry about my sweaty hands. The pen is excellent for hobbyists and some professionals. The tough part of having the Surface Pro with the ARM processor is that your drawing apps are hit and miss when it comes to compatibility. I couldn’t get the standard version of Krita to load (I could download a beta version for ARM but it would require a lot of backend work to get it up and running). Adobe Fresco has a built for ARM version and it works beautifully. It’s currently free to use but who knows how long that will last. As more people adopt devices with ARM processors, more developers will target this device and it will become less of an issue. Pros: Excellent key travel and touchpad No alcantara where your hands rest so you won’t get that stained from sweat The pen holds on strongly, can almost hold the computer by it Cons: No longer have the option to raise the keyboard up Should be included with the computer

The keyboard is for the new Surface Pro 12. The tablet will function just fine without the keyboard, but this keyboard adds many useful features to the tablet. It acts as a thin cover to protect your tablet at a minimum. One of the most helpful features is the dedicated copilot key. It can be helpful at times when needing a quick answer to a question. Also the addition of the “cocreator” feature in paint can be very helpful when needing some inspiration for a drawing. It can also be helpful when coming up with a concept of a project or something like that. The keyboard can feel a little mushy at first but once you get used to it it’s very nice to type on for long periods of time. The trackpad is also surprisingly good for this type of device. The new magnetic tray for the pen on the back of the device keeps the pen handy for use and keeps it charged. Overall I think it’s a great keyboard and adds to the overall use of the tablet. It is at a great price point and I would definitely recommend buying it with the tablet.

Not a bad keyboard and I feel it's a must have for your surface pro. I just wished it was just included and not sold separate. You store the pen that comes with this on the backside of the Surface Pro. It has a strong magnet that holds if firmly in place. Me personally, I would feel safer just having a spot at the top of the keyboard that could hold the pen. I just feel like I might one day snag this and not realize the pen came off, or maybe someone walks by and snags it. But I did like that the keyboard snaps on and was very sturdy. It acts like having a case and protects the screen when packed. It is back lit so you can see all the keys. It has 3 brightness settings for the keyboard. If you like using Copilot (it's like ChatGPT), it has a dedicated button for that as well. It is a full-size keyboard other than not having the 10 key for it. One thing I do love is that the touch pad is a pretty good size touchpad. Being that this is for a 12" I thought the touchpad was going to be small. But it ended up being a nice size. Overall, my biggest gripe is just that it is not just included. You do not need this, but I do recommend having it, especially because the Surface Pro uses windows 11 so it is more of a laptop/desktop over being a standalone table.
