Transformative!
"The Brydge keyboard changes everything and I now have a fully functioning laptop, with fast responsive multi-touch gestures and a subtle but welcome backlight. When docked in the Brydge, the Surface Pro is stable and the hinge feel very secure. I've no problem getting the viewing angle I want. In the hand it feels like a premium product and it's lightweight so it's no problem to take out and about. I've no hesitations in recommending this product for anyone wanting a better laptop experience from their Surface Pro."

Amazing addition for any Surface user
"The Brydge Keyboard changed my experience with this 2-in-1. It's an attractive product with amazing functionality, great battery, amazing feel, and I can use my Surface comfortably on my lap now! I've always been curious about Brydge products since purchasing my Surface, and the beta program gave me the opportunity to see the hype for myself. I highly recommend this product."

This keyboard transforms the way you use the Surface Pro 7
"Firstly, the keyboard clicks feel amazing, the touchpad (which is bigger) is great! Feels like a smooth glass. The biggest advantage I would say, is not having to use the kickstand every time I wish to use the Surface as a laptop, instead of a tablet. I can use it in bed, on the go, sofas, etc. And, when I want to use it as a tablet, they keyboard can be removed and bam! All in all, I would 100% recommend this product for anyone owning a Surface Pro series."
- Imad | Verified Reviewer
Best wireless keyboard for the Surface Pro
"Purely from the design aspect, the keys, layout, touchpad sensitivity is exactly as responsive as Microsoft Type Cover! All gestures work flawlessly and turned my Surface Pro 7 into an ideal laptop while at the office or during the commute. When I need to use my Surface Pro as a tablet, it slides out easily and when I want to use it as a laptop, it holds my Surface Pro like it was a single unit! Kudo's to the design and engineer team, you can't get any better than this!"

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I've used it frequently and for long periods for more than a week, so it's gotten a good workout. Setup was quick, easy, and intuitive. Both the keyboard and the trackpad have been immediately responsive: no lags at all (and just as instant as on Microsoft's original keyboard). The battery life has been very impressive (still strong after a week of frequent use). On the downside, it lost contact with the computer a couple of times, but it was easily and quickly restored (once it re-contacted itself after a short pause). And it is much heavier than Microsoft's original flimsy keyboard, as others have noted. This keyboard is NOT flimsy. On the plus side, after you attach it (which also was very easy, and it fit perfectly) you really feel like you have a brand new laptop (because it's heavier than the Surface "tablet" you had gotten used to.
Bottom line: It works, it's well-made, and it looks like it cost well over $100. I recommend it.
We love them because they are powerful, thin, light, and fun to use.
We loath them because they aren't quite a laptop, even with the MS clip-on keyboard cover. The kickstand idea looks good on paper, but how many of us really use tablets as tablets and not like ad-hoc laptops? Without a keyboard, you are basically wasting 80% of the Surface's power. Just go buy an iPad if all you want is a tablet. You'll be happier with it if all you're doing is watching streaming video or reading books.
But if what you want is a modular tablet/keyboard combo to get you the power of a laptop with the versatility of a laptop, you really only have a couple of options.
a) You buy Micro$oft's keyboard/cover combo, which is decent enough, but doesn't really solve that painful kickstand problem when you try to use it as a pseudo-laptop...
or
b) You buy a bluetooth keyboard/folio combo, which is usually a major kludge and chock full of compromises. Performance suffers and the whole thing just looks cheap. Why spend $800 on a Surface when it winds up looking like you stuffed it into a cheap pleather case with a crappy bluetooth keyboard.
Enter option c) The Brydge 12.3 Pro+ bluetooth keyboard. This is the first and only (to my knowledge) keyboard that actually makes the Surface act more like a SurfaceBook. You slip the Surface into the clips that hold it snugly to the keyboard, you pair up the Bluetooth, you get typing. I'm typing this review on it, BTW. In the world of keyboard options the Brydge 12.3 Pro+ is...
a) An incredible keyboard (super comfortable with a decent amount of spring to the keys)
b) Well balanced (it has enough weight to keep the tablet part from tipping it over)
c) Seems very stable as far as the Bluetooth connection is concerned
The pros are obvious. For the first time the Surface behaves like a true laptop without the cheap pleathery case/combo feel.
The cons are a little tougher to define, but they get down to the central issue. If you want a true SurfaceBook, get ready to spring another $500 to get into the ballpark. This does not make the Surface a SurfaceBook. The surface doesn't "clip" into the Brydge the way the MS keyboard/cover clips onto the Surface. The Brydge uses small-ish tabs at the lower corners of the surface to "cinch" the Surface into place. They are silicone coated clips that provide a snug, but not "clicked" point of connection with the tablet. In other words, the tablet *can* slip free, especially if you do what I did and try to add a sticker to the back of your Surface to protect that beautiful aluminum case from scratches. Then, what you'll wind up doing is also what I did, cutting away pieces of that beautiful skin so the clips maintain perfect, flat contact with the back of the Surface. After I put the skin on and tried to clip the Surface into the Brydge, the clips failed to make perfect contact, so the silicone coating wouldn't grip and the tablet slipped right out.
But, if you do buy a skin and spend a few moments creating a template to cut the corners out before you apply it to your Surface, the silicone clips on the Brydge will maintain a reasonably snug connection with the tablet and you will have all the functionality of a slim, powerful laptop with a solid, author-approved keyboard.
Bottom line, the Brydge 12.3 Pro+ keyboard for the Microsoft Surface Pro line of tablets is an incredible value, a solid performer, and perfectly funtional. Just buy a decent skin for the back of your Surface and make sure the silicone-covered pads that hold the Surface in place have complete contact with the tablet case and you'll enjoy the best of both worlds. The tablet functionality of the Surface when you need it, and the keyboard comfort of a laptop for the 80% of real world purposes that we buy a Surface for in the first place.
Highly recommended.
I began to hunt for a stiff-hinge keyboard and found this. It was branded for the Surface 4 and up, but appeared to be the only stiff-hinge Surface keyboard out there. $42 was a little salty to me, but I figured if it earned me a faux laptop, it's worth the investment.
Keyboard arrived today and was very nicely packaged with good instructions and a USB-C to USB-C charging cable (useless for me, but I have a couple normal USB-C to USB-A cables around). I cautiously slipped my Surface Pro 3 into the hinges and found it DID fit, but pretty tightly (Since the 3 is slightly thicker than the 4 and beyond). Since there were a number of reviews talking about broken screens, I opted to flip my kickstand out and THEN slip on the keyboard. This made the fit much looser, and then I just closed the kickstand back onto the hinges to get it back out of the way. If I shake the thing around like a moron, the Surface can slip out of the hinges this way, but it's plenty snug for normal use. I may fiddle with the brackets a bit to get a better fit, but the fact remains that out of the box, this can be used with a Surface 3 (albeit it slightly awkwardly). I do wish the brackets on the front had a larger surface area. They're very tiny, so I can see how some people may experience a broken screen since all the pressure of closing the hinge is on such a small area of glass.
Bluetooth had no issues connecting with Windows 11. Keyboard was charged to about 45% out of the box. Everything functions as expected. And the trackpad has a number of handy built-in gestures (all of which are listed in the instructions). The Surface even goes to sleep when you close it onto the keyboard (just like a laptop would). Quality seems perfectly fine, so at this point I'm pretty happy with this purchase and glad I finally have a use for my Surface Pro 3.
This is just day one, so if anything funky happens, I'll update this review.
Small update after a couple weeks:
I decided to cut the rubber surface off the back half of the hinges (the large part). I then bent the underlying metal tabs in slightly. This made the keyboard fit my Surface Pro 3 perfectly, and left the rubber that touches the glass screen intact. This will probably put some little scratches in the Surface's metal back over time, but that would purely be cosmetic damage, so I don't really care (not to mention there are already plenty of scratches on the metal body of my Surface). I'm sure I could have found a thinner protective rubber to slip in there if I actually cared.
Performance-wise, I've only had one odd incident with the keyboard where it didn't connect right away. It resolved itself after I logged in using the touchscreen keyboard. I'm guessing this is a Windows issue with bluetooth right after boot.

It’s heavy but not too heavy that it’s not portable.
Slightly expensive but definitely worth the money in my eyes.
Definitely worth getting if you want a sturdy keyboard for your Microsoft Surface Pro.
