The keys are actually spread out on the new version. They also appear to stick up more than the keys on the other type cover. However, because the keys all stick together on the old model, maybe that is just giving me the allusion that they don't stick up as much. Typing on the newer model is much easier! It allows for a natural keyboard motion, whereas with the old model I found myself making typos constantly because the keys were so close to each other. I have to correct my typing far less frequently with the new model. I can also type much faster with the new model. The feel of the keyboard is just fantastic, and I honestly think it is preferable to the built-in keyboard on my HP work computer. The type pad is still a bit flimsy, but it does feel sturdier to me than the previous model. I think the new type cover does improve the lap sitting experience.
Overall, visually the new one just looks nicer. Perhaps the back lit keypad gives it a more refined look, not sure. The track pad is now improved with a glass surface. It's much easier to use and is also a bit bigger. The look of it just also adds to the keyboard making this one look less cheap. I bought this in the teal color and think it's a great shade. I am not someone who likes bright and flashy colors, so this is perfect for those who like some color, but not overwhelmingly bright ones.
Personally I think this is worth buying. I am not sure how the price compares to other keyboards, but for one specifically made for the Surface Pro devices, it is a great asset to the Surface Pro. I have been using my Surface Pro 3 more since buying the upgraded keyboard. If you were someone with no type cover, you should definitely give this a shot. If you were like me and already had an older model type cover, I think this is still worth considering. For myself, knowing I plan to keep and continue using my Surface Pro 3 for more years, it was worth investing $100 to update the type cover.
I have a few cons to point out, but nothing major in my opinion. You do notice oils from your fingers on the keyboard. This is somewhat unavoidable as I notice this on most of the keyboards I use. Also it would be nice if the type cover had somewhere to hold your stylus pen. The build quality could continue to be improved upon for future models so it's less flimsy. But the actual keys feel very solid, as does the track pad. Also it'd be nice if Microsoft included a type cover with the purchase of a Surface Pro since the majority of owners will want a keyboard. Overall I think this is a 5 star product and worth the money.
The most important thing for me in terms of usage is typing, which feels very smooth, very much like a traditional laptop and I have no problems with the size and layout of the keys. I’ve used the keyboard in my lap and at a table without experiencing any ‘bouncing’ or movement and it seems very sturdy (especially when you consider how thin it is). Aesthetically, I love the color, so pretty! It also feels nice in my hands. That seems like an odd thing to notice about a keyboard, but it really does. In terms of footprint of the keyboard, it’s much slimmer than I expected, surprisingly thin actually. I had already purchased a (rather expensive Kate Spade) laptop pouch that fit the SP4 plus the pen just perfectly, in fact it was designed for it, and while adding the keyboard has obviously increased the depth of the device, I can still use this case.
One thing I have been surprised, pleasantly, about is that when I’m not using the SP4 I fold the keyboard cover over the screen and store in a laptop pouch, and not once have I noticed keyboard marks on the screen when I’ve opened it up again. That’s one thing that used to bug me about my old laptop – in certain light you could clearly see the outline of all the keys on the screen. Pleased to say this doesn’t seem to be an issue here!
The only real concern I might have in the future is about the corners of the keyboard, since it is so thin. Right now they’re fine, but with extended use I imagine they’ll look less polished. This is by virtue of their location of course so there’s not much that can be done about it. Of course, I haven’t knocked a star off for this because it hasn’t actually happened, but I thought it was worth mentioning.
