Incredibly useful and versatile

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was looking for wireless keyboard for my Surface Pro 4, which I dock and use as a desktop keyboard. It was displayed on an endcap at Best Buy, so I stopped and had a look. I liked the look immediately, with its low profile and the solid weight when I picked it up. In use, it sits firmly on my glass topped deak and does not slide around at all due to the solid rubber feet and that weight. I'd say it's heavier than the average keyboard in spite of being smaller. That weight , the keyboard's wdith and it's relatively shallow depth make it a very nice lap keyboard if I want to sit back from the desk -- probably not planned for that but nice bit of serendipity. (I'm doing that now.)
The keys are a little closer together than a standard keyboard and but still comfortable. They give good tactile feedback with a short travel distance but are very quiet. The layout is a little eccentric with regard to accessory keys (delete, numlock, etc) and it does without a home or end key, which took a little getting used to. Having done so, not a problem.
A great thing about the keyboard is the incredibly convenient tablet stand at the top of the keyboard. This is probaably why the keyboard is as heavy as it is, in order to provide stability for any device you'd care to use it with. It's angled nicely and seem to hold pretty much anything. I've even put my Surface in it, and it holds most securely.
I have found that it pairs quickly and smoothly with everything I've tried: wireless Logitech dongle, Bluetooth to IPhone, Bluetooth to Kindle, Bluetooth to Surface. On every device there is no lag, even when starting to type after a break or first thing in the morning.
Minor complaint: the angle of keyboard itself is not adjustable. It sits flat on the desk, probably to make the device stand more stable.
I like this keyboard so much that I bought a second one for work on my own dime. I love using good tools, and this is definitely a great one.

Good value for money

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this for my small workspace at work. The company doesn't supply cordless keyboards and I wanted to be able to clear it out of the way at times, but I didn't want to spend a lot of my own money on the company's behalf.
This is not a top end Logitech keyboard, it doesn't claim to be one and it doesn't feel like one: the key board is of light plastic and so are the keys. It doesn't have the solid feel I associate with 'Logitech'. However, it sits firmly on the desk, the keys are responsive and accurate, and the unit is light enough that I can put it up on a shelf out of the way with out any effort or fear of it falling. The communication with the computer seems to be consistently speedy with no delays. A common-sense feature I like is that the on/off switch is on the face of the keyboard and not underneath -- handy.
The mouse: it's a Logitech mouse. Pretty much says it all for me. I haven't used any other brand for 20 years.
Overall, money well spent. I purchased it on sale for $10 less than the current price of $49.99, and I consider it a 5-star value at the full price.

It makes things hot.

Verified Purchase:Yes
After 2 months use, it still works. Practically a record for microwaves these days. Looks good, not too noisy, makes things hot. In other words, it meets the standard.
Free advice: this was a purchase after two other microwaves failed in the space of 9 months. In the case of microwaves, the extended warranty is worth the money.

Essential for desktop arrangement
on March 15, 2016
Posted by: Bilyam
Verified Purchase:Yes
I'm not a tech guy, so this review is only about my feelings about the functionality of the device.
If you want to set your Surface up in a desktop arrangement, this is a must-have item. It gives you 4 usb ports, an audio output jack for your speakers, 2 video ports for your monitor(s) (you'll need an adapter); and it does all of that completely behind the scenes. There's also an Ethernet port if you don't want to connect via WiFi. The only connection to the Surface is a cable that connects in the same place as the charger that comes with the Surface. Note: even with the Surface connected to the dock, the integrated usb port on the computer remains functional for a total of 5 ports to connect and/or charge other devices..
Physically it's fairly small and unobtrusive, but heavy enough to stay in place wherever you put it. The power cord is long enough for any reasonable desk arrangement -- I keep the entire unit on a shelf under the desk and only the connector cable is visible.
Expensive, but I'm happy with it. Like most things that work perfectly out of the box, the price doesn't hurt as much as it would if it was ineffective or inefficient.

I wanted to replace the old earphones that come with my iPhone 3. When I looked into inexpensive earbuds I found these. They were reputed to sound good and be comfortable, and I found this to be entirely accurate. They don't sound quite as good as my Bose earbuds, but they're just as comfortable in their own way. A good purchase for an IPhone, especially because of the incorporated microphone and volume controls -- much better than the previous version.

Works on Surface Pro 4

Verified Purchase:Yes
Went into the store looking for the Official Microsoft Version of this device. There wasn't one but the Best Buy staff member handed me this one (open box) and assured me it would do the job of connecting my Surface Pro 4 to a VGA monitor. It connected easily and the monitor has been my main display on my desk at home for over two weeks now.
Can't ask for more than 'working perfectly' at less than half the price.

How do you open the back, designated storage and I am assuming where the batteries get replaced?

The battery compartment cover is very tightly in place. I found that the easiest thing to do is to hold the keyboard upside down so that the battery compartment is at the top, get my fingernails into the crack at the top of the cover and slide it firmly downwards. The little divot in the cover to do this with is fairly useless. Having said that, who wants a loose, floppy battery cover anyway?

Turn-Table

When In Action, Does the turntable ALWAYS Rotate R Can U Stop it????
And if So,,, How!!
It does rotate and you can't turn it off. That's not a bug, it's a feature. The turntable rotates in order to cook the food evenly. Without it you would get spots overcooked and spots undercooked..

Is the cable as short as it looks like in the photo? Not sure I can arrange mine to be that close..... suggestions?

The cable is about 4 3/8", not counting the connectors at either end. Perhaps you might need to add a VGA extension cable?

Is this device "Active" or "Passive"?

If I understand your question correctly, it's passive -- you plug the VGA cable in one end and connect the other end to your device (in my case, a Surface Pro 4), and it works. That's all the action necessary.
