🔋 Nexus 9 Keyboard Folio by HTC Review

Works well, finish and quality are excellent. The magnets used to attach it actually hold the tablet in place and it takes a while to figure out where and where to miss the device to keep the keyboard and tablet from separating. This keyboard works great in a stationary environment, but won't perform well if, say, you're driving it in a rough vehicle or using it on anything other than a stable, flat, hard surface. I find it best to sit on a thin hardcover book when attempting to use it on your…

My keyboard will only pair/connect when the keyboard itself is plugged into a power source. I had this problem with the first one I bought and I thought it was defective but found after replacing it had the same problem - and I went to the Nexus help forum - this is a common problem with this product There doesn't seem to be an obvious solution either from the Nexus or from the seller I contacted. It literally turns itself off as soon as I unplug even a fully charged keyboard. Strange…

This review was written using the Nexus 9 Keyboard Folio. :-) To put it simply, I'm really surprised at how much I love typing on this keyboard. Within moments of connecting to my Nexus 9, I was already typing in braille with minimal typos. I waited a day or two to remember where the keys were.

However, it lacks an escape key, making using the vi editor inconvenient, but not nearly…

HTC is very proud of this device. I really don't think it's worth the price they advertise here, maybe half yes. From my point of view, it is a Bluetooth device that will be used in certain cases. For example, a quick setup for urgent email, chat, or a simpler mobile option than a laptop. The quality is top notch although I don't have much experience with keyboard folios. Maybe that's the selling point. It's a soft suede with smart coating features so the screen turns on when you open it and…

Everyone else has already covered the technical aspects, so I won't repeat myself. Here's my opinion after a week of use. Pros: 1. The case/keyboard looks great. I love the color and texture. It goes well with the black Nexus 9. The magnets are strong enough to hold the keyboard to the case and also hold the N9 in two viewing angles. They're also not strong enough to make the N9 more difficult. It is very quick and easy to remove. Magnets are the right balance for me.2. It prints better than…
