Logitech Tablet Keyboard for Android 3.0+
Logitech's
Tablet Keyboard for Android 3.0+ packs in plenty of bang for your buck.
In addition to a superb keyboard, the product comes with a protective
case that doubles as a stand for your tablet, allowing you to position
the device vertically while you type. This all-in-one functionality
adds a lot of value to the Logitech unit.
Of
course, the most important thing is the keyboard itself -- and
Logitech's creation is no slouch in that regard. The keys are nicely
spaced out and very responsive; I found it comfortable to perform even
the fastest of typing. The unit lies more or less flat when placed on a
table, with an ever-so-slight upward slant.
The
Logitech Tablet Keyboard has five rows; the number keys at the top
double as Android function keys when used in conjunction with a
function (Fn) button. Those Android keys allow you to open your
tablet's browser,
music player, calendar, or Gmail app, as well as remotely control music
playback and volume on the tablet. These are handy, but I would have
liked it better if they had been dedicated rather than combination
keys. The keyboard does have dedicated Search, Back, Home and Menu keys.
Though
all of the keyboards I tested offer Delete keys, the Logitech keyboard
is the only one on which the key actually functions as you would
expect: It deletes the letter that comes immediately after the cursor.
For some reason, every other keyboard's Delete key either did nothing
or served as a second Backspace key, deleting letters before the cursor instead of after it.
In
terms of accuracy, the Logitech keyboard's performance was outstanding,
and I encountered few errors in prolonged use. When typing extremely
fast, I did experience some sporadic issues in which certain letters
would appear multiple times, or certain letters would be omitted even
though I'd pressed them. This occurred rarely, however, and seems to be
a common occurrence among Bluetooth keyboards.
