For the pink and white dual color pattern, will the white portion of the keyboard easily fade/discolor from daily use?

I've had mine for over six months and it still hasn't faded or discolored. It's better than your keys on the key board fading. Plus it keeps dust from getting inside the keys too. I love mine:).

I only have the white one, so I am not completely sure about the others. From what I can tell the only difference between the other ones is the color. Everything else is still the same, it seems. The keyboard is attached to the cover with the one I have and cannot be removed from the case.

The keys are made from a similar material so I'd guess that they both will be susceptible to dirt about the same. After nine months, mine shows no visible dirt. Using a damp cloth ought to keep the keys on both keyboards looking good. I'd also recommend avoiding eating Cheesy Poofs when when you are using any keyboard.

The surface (other than the sides) are matted, so finger prints don't really show up well. Upon inspecting it right now after using it for a few months I can smudges and a bit of dirt but thats really my fault more then the keyboard >.>As to it scratching, I've not noticed anything of the sort and the lighting is pretty awesome.Negatives: Dont get this to write any papers from the get go. It often has issues creating capitol letters, and it takes an unusually long time to break in the keys. Aside from the function of the keyboard, if you buy this particular item then you will need to semi permanently leave your left pinky in the space between the "M" keys and the left shift.

I've had mine for just about one year and all the letters are still clearly visible. What I like the most about this keyboard is that the F and J keys have a good ridge on them and I can feel where my fingers go.

I've had my white case for 14 months now and it gets pretty hard use. It's just beginning to show some discoloration on the back from where it slides/sits when set down. But mine goes everywhere, purse, pockets, kids hands, etc. Surprised and very pleased at how well it's lasted since discoloration/stains were a concern when I purchased it.

I have had my keyboard since the day it was released on amazon. So probably over a year and have yet to have any malfunctioning with it? Maybe shoot their customer service an email and see what they say.

Yep, typing on it right now in the dark. It is back lit to the color of your choosing, it can even cycle through colors... but that is distracting. And, yes it looks just like that photo. The only keys that are not back lit are the thumb mod keys below the spacebar.

I found another case like this one it's almost like this one in every way. Small changes to the keyboard and stitching both for the most part is the same. Here is a link to it so you can see more pictures of it http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FQC190W/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ARK124NKBQ4LI

I got this case for my son about 2 months ago, and I haven't noticed any discoloration. It hasn't transferred to his clothes or hands and it hasn't rubbed, smeared or faded at all. It still looks pretty much the same as the day we got it. It doesn't seem to be, like, a transferred design where the design was just transferred to the outside of the case. I've been pretty satisfied with the over all quality so far, it's held up well to the stresses and strains a teenage boy regular puts it through lol.

Yes it looks exactly like that buddi, the keyboard is great for those late nights on the web. Some keys sometimes get stuck but its not that bad. I wanted to put a pic here but i dont seem to be able to do that. Find me on facebook (ralph Dimas) and i will send u the pic.

My case is bronze in color and after a week it still like clean. White usual fades or gets discolored. I've heard people say that just carrying your phone in blue jeans pockets will transfer some coloration to a white case. My wife white case still looks good but does shoe signs of discoloration after 6 months of use.

Yes, the only complaint I have is the discoloration of the inside of case. I would recommend a darker color. I hope this help

Yeah u can remove the keyboard anytime you don't want to use it. And it is bulky only when the keyboard is inside when you close it. But I love it! Although I should of gotten it in black because white does get dirty pretty fast. I do recommend you getting this though its great.

mine has not scratched and around the keyboard is a matt finish so finger prints are minimum.

yes! When I got the blue one two years ago the keyboard cover was tinted blue. The purple one I just got has a clear one.

Kent...UPDATE to my Post under C. Watts - I was able to reinstall the keyboard and get the F5 key to work. While the quality of materials is lower on the current generation of keyboards, mine is working fine and the quality is acceptable. As far as spacebar issues and such, I think it's just a break-in period you have to go through. And truthfully, this is the best layout of a keyboard I've ever used. I use it every day, all day long and just would not want to be without the split design.
