Microsoft has the gimmick that says the Surface can replace your laptop. It was 90% there on the Surface Pro 3, the major downside for me being the keyboard. It was a good keyboard, and a great option when it first released. Then after constant use, it worked fine, but never felt like a real keyboard.
Finally, the latest keyboard, released with the SP4, and works with the SP3, feels fantastic and functions perfectly! It's much sturdier, mouse pad is larger and more sensitive, keys are spaced apart better and feel better, and finally a fingerprint login option (only on black keyboard as of now). Overall, this keyboard is great! We'll see how I feel when SP5's keyboard comes around. :)

Great keyboard – nicely spaced keys, good feel and sound when typing, trackpad works way better than older versions, and the fingerprint scanner makes it very easy to login with just a touch!

This keyboard lives up to its promises. The keys are large and easy to use. I have used fingerprint reader locks before with poor results, but this one works extremely well. No complaints.

With the addition of a fingerprint reader, better spaced keys, and larger track pad, this is a great improvement over the previous Surface Pro 3 Type Cover.

Solid feel with good key spacing-backlit keys a nice plus. I use the fingerprint reader to quickly log onto either of two accounts using different fingers.

I'm glad I shelled out the extra cash for the type cover with fingerprint. No pin. No password. Touch keyboard. Enter program. Simple. Fast.

The type cover for the surface pro 4 was recommended to me and is great. The space between the keys is a HUGE improvement. The fingerprint reader is a great shortcut to getting into the instrument

The keyboard feels surprisingly good considering how thin it is. The keys have satisfying tactile response and don't feel rubbery. The build quality is excellent and though the type-cover isn't as rigid as a normal keyboard, it doesn't feel as though it will bend or break. Overall it is an excellent product. My only complaint is that the fingerprint reader doesn't consistently read my finger. I almost always have to scan my finger 3-4 times before it will read. Thankfully the scanning process is very fast -- but still, it leave something to be desired. This may be a software problem, hard to say. That said, I still give the product 4/5 stars.

I own a Surface Pro 3 and purchased this keyboard because of the touch id / hello feature. This cover keyboard is also better then the Pro 3 original keyboard. It fits great.

I purchased a Surface Pro 3 last year. The weakest link of the product was the type cover. The trackpad was too small and the keys were too close together. This new type cover changes the game! The trackpad larger and more responsive. I no longer have to carry a wireless mouse around. The keys are better spaced and the fingerprint reader makes unlocking the system a breeze. This cover is also backwards compatible with Pro 3 & 4. I did take away one star because there is still no where to store the pen. Otherwise I think this is a must upgrade for any surface pro 3 owner. It greatly improves the usability of the product.

This works great for typing, and it makes it so easy to sign into Windows with the fingerprint sensor.
