Review on πŸ” Fintie Keyboard Case for Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 (2016 NO S Pen Version) - Slim Lightweight Stand Cover with Detachable Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard by Randy Gunnmann

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Perfect for Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 inch T580, but remember the keyboard

This item fits Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 inch T580 BEAUTIFUL! I bought *another tablet case* for my Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1" with a keyboard that was supposed to fit the T580. The first one I bought (a different brand) did NOT fit and since I I didn't buy Revain I had to pay postage I was trying to be more selective in reading descriptions when I finally went to Revain looking for a case for my tablet and was wondering if my T580 is different because I have it right now Purchased from Target on Black Friday 2017. I was pleasantly surprised at how well the tablet fits in THIS case when I received it in portrait or landscape mode It's not like it only works in landscape mode like you see in the photo (2) The keyboard is NOT attached to the lid itself, although the inside of the lid gives the impression that the keyboard is sticking to it (magnet), holding the lid upside down or too crooked will eventually cause the keyboard to slide to its doom.Ah , de The magnet isn't that strong. (3) There is no way to prevent the keyboard from being scratched on the surface of the tablet when the lid is closed with both the tablet and the keyboard inside. Realizing this was the case, I turned the keyboard over so the keys were against the tray's lid and the smoother back of the keyboard was pressed against the tray's surface when I closed the lid. I don't know if that's a bad thing as the keyboard needs to be magnetized to keep it on the tablet cover. When I bought this I bought a military grade screen protector so I hope nothing bad happens to it. There was a piece of foam in the tablet case packaging, but when I tried to put it between the tablet and the keyboard, the case wouldn't close because it was too thick. Perhaps a better solution would be a piece of flannel or other cloth that they use to wipe the screen between the keyboard and the tablet's frame. If it doesn't work, try again and again. Once the keyboard was paired, it worked great with the tablet. This is great for tracking your tweets or replies on Instagram. It would be nice if the backspace key was a bit wider, but it worked great with my tablet. I have big hands and the button layout didn't bother me. Printing was very easy. Since the keyboard came in a separate box and not a case, you can check out the Fintie cases that allow for both portrait and landscape modes (http://amzn.to/2BVHOPw) and buy the keyboard. separately. I think the keyboard fits a dual orientation cover, but you might want to read the reviews to make sure. Alignment, the keyboard isn't fully secured with some sort of rubber or plastic at the corners, and there aren't enough bumpers on the keyboard to prevent the keys from touching the front of the tablet. Other than those things, I love it!

Pros
  • Handy thing
Cons
  • So far so good
