How well does the keyboard work? Is there any lag time between keystroke and letter showing up on-screen? How is battery life and charge time?

There is no lag time between keystroke and letter on screen, it's immediate, as a notebook. The longest I used it without interruption was for about two hours, and for that the battery lasted perfectly. I haven't paid attention in battery charging yet, I've just put it charging overnight. After using it now for a while, there is a problem: the ink of the most used keys is already gone. It's not a huge problem but unpleasant considering I bought it for a month or so.

in short the answer is....it doesnt matter. the keyboard is junk. pass it up and find something better for the money.

the Samsung keyboards work fine, you just have to get used to the way you use the fingerpad and left or right click; it's a little clunky. That is on the models I've been around, been about a year since I was around one though. I don't know if they're any different now.

When it worked, it worked good. The battery lasted about a week before needing to be recharged. After 2-3 times of charging it, it stopped working completely. The keys do not light up in this model, so you may want to find one that does if you plan on using it in the dark.

I have had mine for a half-a-year now and I can say I've only replaced the battery once and right now it's reporting a 60% charge. I use the keyboard for hours-on-end daily. Highly recommended wireless keyboard if you're looking for long-lasting battery life. I also highly recommend the Logitech v470 mouse paired with this keyboard for its equally long-lasting battery life.

Regarding the battery life - Not true. My laptop gives backup for like 4 hours if I'm just browsing the net. I am currently a college student and all my classes are 3 hours long. I mostly use browser to search for stuff related to class (or chat on facebook :P ) and take notes on word. When fully charged at the start of class, i have like 30%-40% at the end of each class.No the laptop does not have back lit keyboard.

I don't see any time lag in typing or in cursor movement. Changing from my old fashioned, corded keyboard to this one took only someslight adjustment - this one responds to a lighter touch and some keys seemcloser together.

I am certainly not a touch typist but I have never experienced any noticeable lag between typing on the keyboard and seeing the characters appear on the display. Assuming there is not some other OS or software issue I don't think you'll be able to out-type the keyboard/display combination.

Hi Joseph,It is a smooth service. It is the model you show in this picture. I bought it for my husband and he likes it. The keyboard is very easy to use.

No. Everyyhing is ok except for the keyboard. I can't figure out how to make it function properly. Sometimes I press akey and then the option for that letter gets typed. Love the screen and resolution.

Mine works pretty well on my Acer tablet. The keyboard powers on once it has been plugged in to the tablet. It takes a minute or so on the first use, and much shorter time there after.

I'm sorry you have had problems with your other keyboards. My first "Keys U See" lasted three years. I replaced it with a second one which is still going strong after two years. I don't use it every day, but when I take it to my adult education classes, sometimes three in a week, I am often typing for 1 1/2 hours straight. I recommend downloading frequently to avoid losing documents in case there is any problem. I'm glad I have this keyboard and recommend it to anyone. If you have any more questions, please let me know.

I am a newbie too! I tend to shut my keyboard off when I am using my device as a tablet. There is a little lag time when I do fire it up to use the tablet/keyboard combo as a laptop, but it saves battery life and prevents inadvertent keystrokes etc. Hope this helps!

My experience (about two weeks of use) has been inconsistent. The keyboard always goes to sleep in less than 15 minutes of non-use. Sometimes it is after only a minute, and at other times it may be after a few minutes. But because it is better than the previous brand I tried to use, and because it was so inexpensive, I've been able to tolerate the annoyance.

I have not used the keyboard continually since receiving it. I use is everyday for about 15 to 30 minutes. I have not needed to charge it for about 2 weeks. I accidentally left it on all night and a couple days ago and it still hasn't died. As a result, I would guess that it will work all day without a problem. I hope that answers your question.

It's for my wife the writer--speed doesn't matter. Cost does. Finding a backlit keyboard is expensive. Thanks for the help.

I'm sorry Jean. I don't know the answer to your question, but I can tell you that it is very slow. I am a hunt n peck typist and even with my slow speed, it would miss letters because it was still sending the previous character. I liked the big, easy to read keys but gave up on it because of it's speed. Haven't had the speed problem with any other keyboards. Good luck.
