I have a Surface Pro 3 that I use for work and a Surface Pro 4 for personal. The SP4 type cover is a lot nicer than the 3 is. The key spacing feels better. I like the added finger print sensor for easier sign in.

Fingerprint ID Worth Extra Cost for Surface Pro 3

I own a Surface Pro 3 and upgraded to the Surface Pro Type Cover with Fingerprint ID after using the original model Surface Pro 3 Type Cover for two years.
There were no issues with upgrading the Type Cover. The Fingerprint ID option integrates with Windows Hello, allowing me to logon or unlock my screen without typing a password. It's quick and very convenient and worth the $30 added cost because I use it a lot.
I don't think the Fingerprint ID feature would be as useful with a Surface Pro 4. The infrared camera and facial recognition with Windows Hello provides the same functionality.
I bought this keyboard as open box, but the keyboard was still like new and I appreciated the extra savings.

This is a nice keyboard for typing in information without the need to take up valuable screen space with the on-screen keyboard. The fingerprint ID has not failed me yet. The only reason I give it 4 instead of 5 stars is because sometimes it is not recognized when you open the keyboard.

I liked my original Surface keyboard but this one is much better. The key spacing is great and the touchpad is more responsive. The best feature is the fingerprint reader. That alone is worth the upgrade.

I like the feel of the keys and the overall weight of the key board. The fingerprint ID feature is great for a quick sign in and I like the security it provides. However, sometimes it doesn't recognize my print and I have to log in old school with my password.

I use my Surface Pro 4 mostly in tablet mode, but not because there is anything wrong with this keyboard. I have no complaints about this keyboard. The keys are responsive, and substantial feeling. I appreciate the addition of the fingerprint scanner as well.

Surprisingly good keyboard

I reluctantly bought the keyboard for my new Microsoft Surface Pro 4, because I felt I had to have one. Keyboard for other tablets, like my iPad, but was pleasantly surprised with this one. The keys are sufficiently clicky, without that mushy feel of many portable keyboards. Key layout is just right for touch typing.
I don't use the fingerprint reader much; it was easy to set up, though. I bought this keyboard primarily for the color, and would have chosen a black one without a fingerprint reader if it was available. (The Microsoft Hello system is surprisingly good for logging you in.)
