    Great keyboard

    When I heard that the Surface Pro 4 would have a keyboard that would work with the Surface Pro 3 I was intrigued. When I purchased this keyboard, I was impressed greatly! The keyboard has a better layout, and a better "feel." It seems to be a bit more accurate also. The fingerprint id feature is an added bonus. Whether your are a Surface Pro 3 or 4 owner, this keyboard is well worth the price!

    Fingerprint scanner for that price is not worth it. It's a very good keyboard, but the fp scanner should have been standard.

    Very useful as it is light and comfortable to use. Instead of typing on the screen make the experience more enjoyable and productive. The fingerprint is handy and helps avoid having to type the password everytime.

    Best Keyboard for the Surface Pro

    The fingerprint scanner works flawlessly for me for logging in. I like the response of the keys and the glass trackpad is better than most. I'd prefer a larger trackpad, I have large hands but it's a compact profile and works great otherwise. Other color choice would be awesome. I'd like to have my kit in UofM colors. Go Blue!

    Better than my last laptop

    I bought this Type Cover because my last laptop had a fingerprint reader and I really wanted to be able to take advantage of Windows Hello in Microsoft Edge when developers (hopefully) start taking advantage of that technology. Even though the keyboard is extremely thin, there is just enough travel on the keys for you to feel like your typing on a "real" keyboard. I actually like the way the keys feel more than the keys on my old laptop. A Type Cover is an essential accessory for your new Surface, for an extra $10 the added benefit of a fingerprint reader can't be beat.

    This is great for getting things done, when the on-screen keyboard either obscures too much of the screen or you simply want the tactile feedback of an actual keyboard. I use keyboards for a living, so this was an easy switch and the fingerprint to unlock feature is just great. Highly recommend this product.

    Finger print recognition is a cool feature but the latest Surface Pro 4 I bought has face recognition so all you have to do is look at the screen and it knows who you are. Save the $30 extra cost and use face recognition.

    I've had my share of expensive, name brand keyboards, but the Microsoft type cover are kind of ridiculous. Anywhere between 70-200$ is steep, and while this type cover has a plethora of nifty touch features, I can't bring myself to agree with the initial asking price. While it is a great -I dare say necessary- companion to any surface, I would wait until they go on sale.

    Go ahead and protect that Surface of yours and use the fingerprint reader keyboard to save time logging in to your Surface! Took a little bit of practice to learn how to press your finger to get just the right reading but now I'm in and using it much faster than any password.

    I originally considered just using my bluetooth keyboard instead of paying $160 for this because i thought it would be awful to use. But after purchasing this i was very surprised by how much i like typing on this keyboard. The key travel isn't very deep since it is so thin but i really enjoy the tactile feel and sound of it. The fingerprint scanner was the main reason i chose this version over the normal version and it works well most of the time (sometimes need to to be cleaned before it is able to read). I only have two gripes. One is that the model with the fingerprint scanner is only available in black and i really wanted the gray alcantara model. The second is the keys and scanner shows oils from your fingers a lot more that keyboards that i have owned in the past and gets tranferred onto the screen when closed.

    This is the best Keyboard I've purchased for my Surface Pro as of yet. It is backwards compatible with the Surface Pro 3 and the fingerprint reader works decent with Windows 10. Sometimes the Surface Pro doesn't see the fingerprint reader when you go to login but it's easily corrected by disconnecting and reconnecting the keyboard. Outside of that, I've had no issues with it and like the feel/layout much better than the older generation keyboards. The touchpad is great as well and is a nice change from the previous generation keyboard.
