Microsoft 3RA-00022 Surface Ergonomic Keyboard.QWERTY key life: 10,000,000 actuations per key.

Review: Easily the best looking ergonomic keyboard - This just arrived, so my review only consists of first impressions right now. I'll update this later after I use it for a while. I bought this keyboard for use with the new MacBook Pro w/ touch bar. Although I hate to admit it, Microsoft is known for making good ergonomic keyboards. This keyboard is no exception. It feels solid and seems to respond well. It paired easily with the Mac and many of the special keys work as expected (volume, brightness, etc). Of course one of the reasons I bought this particular one is that it looks visually similar to the Apple brushed aluminium look. It is fairly close, but it is obviously plastic rather than metal. It still looks great. TL;DR: It looks as good in person as it looks online and pairs easily with a Mac over Bluetooth. UPDATE: It has been a week now and I have some additional feedback to share.. First of all, I'd like to respond to the reports of lost keystrokes. I have not experienced anything like what the other reviewers have described. When typing on the keyboard connected to my Mac, I have not experienced any lost keystrokes. What I *have* experienced is a sluggish power saving mode that I suspect occurs even on Windows. What I mean by this is that eventually the keyboard will go into some kind of sleep mode to save power. At this point, if you start to type nothing will transmit - even after it "wakes up", it will not send these keystrokes. This means that if you walk away and come back later, you may need to tap a key and wait a moment for it to start working again. This is a little inconvenient but it is not like the middle of words will be lost. Hopefully there will be some kind of firmware update that will correct this. It would be very nice if it would send the keystrokes even if there was a slight lag. Apart from the power savings mode, I have a couple other things to report. My biggest gripe is the lack of spacing between the right control key and the arrow keys. There is no noticeable gap. I don't look at the keyboard much when I use the keyboard, so I'm having to learn to feel for the up arrow to center my hand to use the arrows and Insert/Home/End/etc. There is a bump on the down key, but I haven't had much luck picking it up quickly. Next up is the 6 key being mapped to the left hand while I've spent the last year training myself to use my right hand. This is a bit quicker to transition to, so not that big of a deal for me. Finally, I'm not quite sure if I like using the Fn key to trigger the function keys. I'd almost rather use it to trigger the media keys instead. I'm sure I'll get used to this, but one week in and it's still bugging me. Bottom line is I'm still quite happy with this keyboard and can definitely recommend it for Mac users. As others have mentioned, you do need to have support for Bluetooth 4.0, which the 2016 MBP has. I'll consider updating this again after another month of use.
Review: Premium Keyboard with odd issues/design (why?) - Update: Here's what I do not like: No dedicated multimedia/volume keys. Because I constantly use function keys while working and listen to things in the background of varying volume sources. Switching would not be as cumbersome if the Function Lock key lit up properly to reflect its current state. The Function Lock key light is does not always reflect the state of the function keys. You always have to look at it to keep switching between F2/F3 and volume up/down. Pressing the Function Lock key sometimes requires two presses to indicate its status. The print on the function keys is tiny so I had to put stickers on them to see them by simple glance during work flow. There is no standard back lighting: only num lock, scroll lock and the flaky function lock. Given the price and manufacturer, I'd expect this thing to work better. I'm giving protoarc keyboards a chance for my next keyboard simply because of backlighting and dedicated volume keys. ========================================================================================== Kinda pricey but it's an older item so they jack up the price to double the original msrp: used to be ~$100, now it's $199. Here's my take: It's a very sleek, thin keyboard and looks great on the desk. Keys are thin, soft-touch and provide just a little resistance. Quiet. There is some heft or weight to it also as the body appears to be made of aluminum. The fabric on the wrist-rest is smooth and firm but also a little bit cushion. The keyboard is no thicker than a pen. For the price, this is a premium-feeling and premium-featured keyboard. So far as functionality is concerned, there's a bt-sync button on the bottom for connectivity. This kbd is 100% bt-only, no dongle and uses 2-double A batteries. Also there is a Function-Lock key on it for access to the dual functionality of the FKeys. This is great for devs who constantly use F5, F6, F10, F11 for building, debugging and stepping through code. The arrow keys are highly convenient for those pesky times when you have to meticulously edit a series of sql commands: the dedicated arrow keys and num keys are great for such instances although ai can do a lot of that much faster than anyone can type. Oftentimes when I return to my desk and the screen is locked, there's a slight delay because the device likely went into sleep mode: there's a half-second blip while you type the first character that wakes up the kbd and initiates the re-handshake to the target machine. No big deal really. Standard typing flows well as there are no blips or delays while typing. If you're looking for a cheap alternative ~$50 instead of slinging two hard-earned bills at this premium solution, check out the "Incase Ergonomic Keyboard – Designed by Microsoft – Refined Ergonomic Design, Built-in Shortcuts Keys, Layered Palm Rest for Elevated Wrist Support, Integrated Number Pad – Black". Both the Incase and the MS 3RA-00022 models are the successors to the MS Natural 4000 it seems - I could be wrong though. Fairly certain you will like this kbd. For me, anything better would have to be built from the ground up and easily cost just as much.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: This says "compatible with surface pro 4, surface book, surface studio". is this not compatible with any system that supports bluthtooth keyboards?**
A: I am using a USB Bluetooth 4.0 Low Energy Micro Adapter from Plugable Technologies on my PC running Windows 10. It works just fine. From what I gather, if you have Bluetooth 4.0, you should be good. However, every system is different and the amount of "massaging" to get this keyboard to work will probably vary greatly. But I think for best results: Bluetooth 4.0 + Windows 10 = no headaches. Also, on a "cool" note, I was able to pair this keyboard to my iPhone 6 Plus with no problems-works great for any typing situation on my smartphone: email, text messages, internet search, etc. Of course, it IS a Microsoft keyboard meant for Windows, so there are no handy iOS shortcuts.

**Q: Is this designed to be backward-compatible with Bluetooth 3?**
A: The Surface Ergonomic Keyboard is not backward-compatible with Bluetooth 3.0 devices, it will only work with Bluetooth 4.0. We apologize for any inconvenience!

**Q: Is the keyboard back lit?**
A: It should be back lit at least for $130?

**Q: This is keyboard would work with Linux? (Ubuntu 16.04)**
A: I am using it with Ubuntu Gnome 17.04 and it works great. It doesn't work before grub boots into gnome though (since BT is not enabled at BIOS obviously), but other than that, all the function keys work, volume, lock, etc.
