Description

Today I am going to unbox and review the Microsoft Surface Pro Signature Type Cover.


It comes in at around $200 US or $249 AU which is around $50 more than the standard surface keyboard and the reason for the price difference is the use of the premium Alcantara fabric which feels a lot like suede, but has the benefit of not being made of any animal products, and it’s said to be sustainable and 100% carbon neutral. It’s an Italian fabric made of Polyester (about 68 percent) and polyurethane (about 32 percent).

In addition to being featured prominently in recent Microsoft Surface products, Alcantara is used by various companies in the fashion, interior, automotive, yachting, and aviation industries. One notable automaker that uses Alcantara in its vehicles is Porsche.

It's stain-resistant (to a degree) and very soft. It's relatively durable and doesn't fade easily.

I have the cobalt blue version in Alcantara fabric to unbox and test but it’s also available in burgundy and platinum.


In terms of specs, it weighs only 310grams, 295mm by 217mm by 5mm thin.

They keyboard layout is a full Qwerty config with a full row of function keys from F1 to F12 at the top. It has dedicated buttons for windows shortcuts, media controls such as volume and playback and screen brightness.

The glass mouse pad feels great and is very accurate and responsive and allows for left and right button mouse click with 1 and 2 finger clicks.

It includes a magnetic interface which allows you to click the keyboard into place as soon as you move it into position near the Surface pro. It only works when connected to the surface, and combined with the build in kick stand on the surface you can actually manoeuvre it all sorts of positions that make it easy to type on in any situation from the desktop to your laptop.
