MiTAB Black Faux Leather Micro USB Keyboard Case Cover and Stand Compatible With The Android Tablets (LG G-PAD 8.3, Black)

This arrived today and I connected it to my tablet to try it out. I am not impressed. Here's why.1. The keyboard is really small, which is challenging enough, but it's not a standard keyboard layout, either. The letter keys are all where they should be, but the other keys (like period, comma, apostrophe, quotes, question mark etc.) are not, so if your fingers automatically go to where they "should" be on the keyboard, you'll be wrong.2. The shift key on the right side of the keyboard is about half the size as the one on the left side, which is already small to begin with.3. The space bar is much too small and is off center.4. There's no hole in the back of the case for the camera, so you can't use the camera while the tablet is in the case.5. There's nothing to prevent the tablet from sliding out of either side of the case. There are two clips on the bottom portion of the back of the case that hold the bottom of the tablet and one in the center on the top attached to an elastic cord which holds the tablet on the top. Nothing holds it on either side so if you pick up the keyboard case and tilt it either left or right, the tablet will slide right out and onto the floor -- which mine did when I first put it in the case and was trying to connect the USB cable.Is this a very good price? Yes. Is it a keyboard and case that I'm comfortable with and that securely holds the tablet? No. Is the keyboard easy to use due to its small size and non-standard layout? No.The tactile nature of the keys is great. It's much nicer than the many gel-type keyboards out there for tablets. I wish it had a more standard layout and was a little larger.

keyboard plugged into my LG and worked perfectly. the keyboard was small and not for 10-finger typing, but I expected that; it is a quantum leap from using the on-screen keyboard. the case is good and gives more than adequate protection for my tablet.the only complaint I have is the shipping. it was $56 to upgrade to "expedited" shipping so I chose to wait the 4-5 weeks for free shipping. the keyboard arrived in 6 days!!! seems the $$ you pay for expedited shipping are unnecessary.1+ year up date. this keyboard has worked great and i expect it to continue to do so. makes my LG tabled much easier to use and getting used to the keyboard layout wasn't a problem

While the keyboard itself works well, my main issue is with the brackets provided to hold the tablet in place. When the unit is in position for typing, it works fine. However, while carrying it in the closed position, my 8 inch tablet, on too many occasions, partially or fully slid out of the case. Thankfully, I was fortunate enough that the unit was not damaged when it slid out. This is a major design flaw that the maker needs to address.

Almost perfect but more perfect if it comes with another handle on bottom side so the tablet will not slide down.
