Review on ๐Ÿ’ป Enhanced Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 Keyboard in Black (EF-DT870UBEGUJ) by Michael Moonin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great case, two small problems.

This is great. It really is like that. The people who complain that it's hard should be ignored because honestly it's still very easy. They should be used for ultra low devices that are lightweight as there is nothing in them. The material seems amazing. It's heavy and grippy enough to stick with smooth surfaces, but light and smooth enough to make it a real pleasure to carry around. It blends very well with the metal edges of the tablet itself, holds the stylus well and generally works as expected. I can't fault the design. However, I encountered two problems. The first is the placement of the screenshot button. It's right next to the backspace key, and I hit it a lot when I'm deleting something because the keys are a bit smaller than the keyboard I'm used to on my computer (as you'd expect). It really gets in the way when I'm trying to work on something serious, and it's constantly taking screenshots and disabling if you just type. I'm sure I'll get used to it, but it's problematic at the moment. The second issue has to do with how the keyboard attaches to the tablet when it's fully folded. There is no latch or magnet on the very edge, making it easy to move and open when you are carrying other things on it. I'm sure it's fairly rare so can't get too excited about it, but a couple of times I've had to carry it with other things and the inevitable result was the keyboard opening wide enough to close the tablet turn. powered on, and once it gets to that point it becomes easy to accidentally turn the keyboard off because it's being moved away by the few magnets holding it in place. A very small issue but keep this in mind if you travel a lot with stacks of stuff because you need to keep your tablet separately.
