Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 5000 Review
People today are moving from tablets to laptops but undoubtedly technology doesn’t seem too comfortable when it comes to texting. The tabs seems good for browsing but when it comes to typing messages or your important emails, virtual keyboards appear quite bugging at times.
For easing your typing maneuvers, Tablets can be accompanied with a physical keyboard. Since tablet users demand portability and flexibility, Microsoft has something remarkable to match the mobility of tablet users –Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 5000.
What will strike you on the first look is Keyboard’s ergonomic design. The keyboard is a curved “U” shaped designwith well spread keys placement with null space in between. You might take time to get accustomed to this curvy design and flat keys which can still ensure high tactile response.
The keyboard unlike usual keyboards is instilled with bigger [G], [H], [B] and [N] keys due to its different design, making few other keys including [O], [K], [L] and [Q] look smaller. The media controls on the keyboards including Volume up/down, play, pause etc. are made compatible with most tablets.
Even your important cutting/copying and pasting tasks can also be done efficiently with this keyboard; in much better ways than through Virtual counterpart. So if you are striving to do some important tasks, you can use this keyboard for delivering better keyboard inputs.
The device comes in an elegant look with black matter finish painted all on the front panel of the keyboard. The keyboard is made invulnerable to dust and fingerprint smudges which is quite appreciable. On the rear of the keyboard you’ll find two AAA batteries holder, a Bluetooth button and an on/off toggle.
On the front of the keyboard you’ll see battery indicator that displays the battery status level. Keyboard’s minimalistic and superior quality design makes it highly suitable for your travelling and outdoor needs.
The keyboard functions using Bluetooth Wireless Technology which allows keyboard connection without the usage of cords or USB port. It might sound ‘Wow’ to many but since many affordable tablets doesn’t offer Bluetooth these days, it might be disappointing for those users; Microsoft should have incorporated USB port to the keyboard.
