Review on 📱 Belkin QODE Slim Style Keyboard Case for Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1'' (Black/Black) - Slim Style Keyboard Case by Dominic Mayo

The Belkin QODE Slim Style Keyboard Case transforms the Galaxy 3 into a business productivity device

This keyboard greatly enhances the Galaxy 3's business-use case. I have been touch typing for many years and typing emails on the Galaxy Soft keyboard on a tablet is very frustrating, time consuming and error prone. The Galaxy 3 snapped into place with no problems. You need to charge the keyboard (it's not obvious in some reviews), it plugs into a regular micro-USB and charges in about 3 hours (as far as I remember). It comes with a USB to Micro USB cable but no charger. This wasn't a problem as I have more than 1 and just wired it to one of them. (You can charge it via a laptop or other USB device - it will take longer). The power consumption should be low, since it didn't have to be recharged as often as with the tablet. Connecting the tablet to the keyboard via Bluetooth was very easy. Turn on the keyboard, then go to Settings -> Bluetooth -> Scanning on your tablet and it will find the keyboard in seconds. The keyboard touch is a fully depressed keyboard (not as deep as a laptop keyboard). I once tried a Microsoft system that didn't have a full feel of pressure on a regular keyboard, and it drove me nuts - you need haptic feedback to give you a sense of rhythm and position on the keyboard - it's nice, this one see the keyboard. Yes, the QWERTY keyboard isn't exactly the same, and a very limited number of special characters are in places that take some getting used to, but by no means get in the way - much better than trying to type messages into the software keyboard on the Galaxy. . One thing I love is using the up and down arrow keys on the keyboard to scroll through web pages instead of manipulating the tablet. lot.) The case looks professional and can be used as a small laptop with a stand on the back. I now use it for meetings and emails on the go instead of lugging around my laptop. I take both with me when I travel. A laptop is great for keeping you busy for hours in your hotel room. I downloaded OpenOffice for Android on Galaxy and other productivity tools and I can work between both devices without any problems. The Belkin QODE Slim Style Keyboard transformed the galaxy from a personal tablet to a business device.
