Product Description

The Perfect Companion for Your Tablet. The Wedge Mobile Keyboard is the ideal balance between form and function. It has a minimalist design, yet incorporates a full-sized keyset, Windows 8 hotkeys, and cover that converts into a tablet stand so you can get more done in more places.

From the Manufacturer

Microsoft Wedge Mobile Keyboard

Multi-purpose cover and tablet stand
A perfectly portable companion for your tablet

The new, ultra-slim Wedge Mobile Keyboard was designed for Windows 7 and Windows 8 tablet users who are constantly on the go. (It also works with iPad and most Android devices.) Its thin, lightweight design makes it easy to carry, while the full-sized, soft-touch keyset provides a comfortable, efficient typing experience that makes creating long emails and documents a breeze.

An ideal balance of form and function

The Wedge Mobile Keyboard has a minimalistic yet thoughtful design that gives you exactly what you need and nothing more. The durable keyboard cover not only protects your device from scratches, but also quickly converts into a tablet stand, allowing you to work or watch movies. When you're done, simply snap the cover back on the keyboard to power it down before you stash it in your bag or backpack. It's as portable-and easy-as that.

We also built in some of the most useful commonly used features, such as Windows 8 hotkeys, to give you a quick and convenient way to search, switch between windows, and more. The keyboard also has built-in media keys, making it easy to control music and videos.

Bluetooth technology eliminates cable and transceiver

Wedge Mobile Keyboard uses Bluetooth technology, allowing you to wirelessly connect to your tablet without a cable or transceiver. For the ultimate clutter-free mobile workstation, combine the Wedge Mobile Keyboard with the Wedge Mobile Mouse.



Key Features

  1. Multi-purpose Cover - Powers down device when snapped on. Also converts into a tablet stand for an instant workstation.

  2. Windows 8 Shortcut Keys - Provides convenient access to commonly used Windows 8 functions.

  3. Media Keys - Effortlessly control your music, with next track, previous track, play, pause, and volume control keys.

  4. Windows Start Button - Simply press the Windows start button to launch the start menu.


Product Details

  • Light-Touch Keys - For a more pleasant typing experience.
  • Bluetooth Wireless - Wireless Bluetooth connectivity - no transceiver required.
  • Works with Most Tablets - Provides fast, comfortable typing. Works with Windows, iPad, and most Android tablets.

The keyboard cover doubles as a stand for the tablet and is very convenient and sturdy.

Style Name: Retail Vine Customer Review of Free Product ( What's this? )
This is a fairly small and portable keyboard that's been specifically designed to work with Windows 8 Tablets. I tested this with various products including Notebooks, Tablets, and phones. It will pretty much work with anything that is happy with Bluetooth keyboards. Although it's quite obvious this was geared towards Windows 8, so I'm doing my testing with something none other than a Dell ST tablet running, Windows 8 RTM (Final).

BUILD QUALITY

First, the build quality is excellent. If this is any indication of how Microsoft's tablet is going to be, I'm very interested. The smooth aluminum bezel is machined and polished to a mirror finish. There is a long vertical rubber strip on the bottom to keep things in place. And of course, the rubber "wedge" that puts the keyboard at an angle for easier typing. This is also where the batteries hide. The keys are shallow, similar to some smaller notebooks, but still feel very solid.

This won't be a replacement for a full size notebook keyboard, but I can already type considerably faster and more accurate than using the touchscreen keyboard on this tablet. Although as a traveling companion with your tablet, the stand and build quality does have one slight negative. Which is weight. At just over 2 lbs with the keyboard and cover, that makes this heavier than many tablets. Most of the weight is due to the stand, which is necessary to support a tablet

KEYS

In fact, as I'm writing this review on the wedge, I can easily type at a fast rate without even glancing at the keyboard. Everything feel natural and there really aren't any keys that have been shrunk to the point of being useless. Speaking of keys, the Function keys have been relegated to a "secondary function.

After looking for quite some time, I finally found a keyboard that fits my needs perfectly! The overall size is great without sacrificing key size and the feel of the keys is excellent as well! It was worth paying a little more to get what I wanted. NOTE: I bought the "Business" version which is less than the "Retail" version-- only difference is the packaging.

Length: 0:05 Mins
Small isn't necessarily bad, and for someone with the right sized hands and fingertips and/or anyone who has no problem using very small keyboards regardless (such as hunt-and-peck typers), the Wedge's diminutive size may be most welcome, for it makes for the ultimate combination of portability plus function. I took a couple of photos of the Wedge next to my first generation Apple Wireless Keyboard to show the size difference, but there does not appear to be a way to upload images for this particular product at this time. So in lieu of a photo I'll use a 5-second long shaky video to show the keyboards together (the Wedge is the keyboard on top).

Most of the keys on each keyboard are the same size; The Tab and Caps Lock keys and the left-hand Shift key are shorter in width on the Wedge, and there is no space between keys on the Wedge, unlike on the Apple. The result is a keyboard that is wonderfully compact or overly small, depending on your needs, preferences and taste. When traveling with the Apple Wireless Keyboard I often found myself wishing it was more compact (because that would make it easier to pack and carry around), but because I have big hands and fat fingers and prefer touch-typing to the hunt-and-peck method, I need a keyboard at least as big as the Apple if I am to touch type comfortably and efficiently. (I can touch type on the Wedge, but not without feeling cramped and not without making many more mistakes then I make on the Apple keyboard and full size keyboards.) However, when I use the Wedge with my first generation iPad, I prefer it for hunt-and-peck typing (which suffices for note-taking) to the iPad's on-screen digital keyboard.

*****UPDATE 12/6/12*****
I returned this keyboard to the Microsoft store, after the return policy had expired. The gentleman who helped me was very nice, and didn't give me any hassle at all. In fact (here's the relevant part) he told me that this was not an uncommon issue with this keyboard and that they even had problems with connectivity with some of their display models. That is pretty disappointing considering what a beautiful piece of hardware this is. In any case, I purchased the Logitech Bluetooth Illuminated Keyboard K810 for PCs, Tablets, Smartphones - Black (920-004292) and have been extremely happy with this purchase. I will not give it a full review because there are plenty of in depth reviews already. However, I will say that I feel like it combines some of the best features of Apple's and Microsoft's keyboards, and then adds a few bonuses on top. Definitely worth a look if you're seeking a Bluetooth keyboard. I've had no issues with connectivity at all. The only thing I'm a bit disappointed about is that it's just not as sexy as Microsoft's or Apple's keyboards. But then, I don't find it hideous either, so I'll take the vastly superior functionality even if I have to give up a bit of form factor. Hope this review has been helpful for someone. Tomorrow I'll see if the Apple store is as forgiving with their return policy as the Microsoft store was. :/ *****END UPDATE*****

I have been searching for the best bluetooth keyboard I can find for some months now. I started with the
