9.7" Tablet Stand with USB Keyboard - Black Faux Leather Carrying Case

NOTE: THIS DOES NOT WORK WITH ANY KINDLE PRODUCT AS FAR AS I KNOW - PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME QUESTIONS ABOUT KINDLES OR KINDLE FIRES AS I DO NOT OWN ONE. THIS IS A REVIEW FOR THIS KEYBOARD COVER WITH A COBY KYROS - I DO NOT OWN OTHER E-READERS AND CANNOT OFFER ADVICE ON THOSE PRODUCTS!I bought this after reading many reviews on here and noting that many people said it worked with Coby Kyros. Shipping was FAST! I got it in 4 days with two of them being weekend days. The case is nice and sturdy, great hardcover protection. I was aware it came with the keyboard and plug, and that I would have to use my adapter that came with my Coby Kyros, but it was a pleasant surprise to find a stylus was also included and that there is a nice holder for that and for the cord that holds the plug for the keyboard.Many people have mentioned this case does not fit their 7-inch tablets, but there is a VERY EASY fix. Before placing your tablet into the 3 prongs, first bend the prongs downward (toward the case backing) a little further than they are currently seated. I did this and my 7-inch Kyros (which originally just slipped right in) now fits snugly in the 3 holders. I even held it over my bed and vigorously shook the case up and down while it was open and my tablet never fell out or even slipped at all. It's much easier and less "messy" than one other reviewer's suggestion of using Velcro - and much easier to get the tablet in and out this way.Finally, when I first connected my adapter that came with my tablet to the keyboard adapter I was very disappointed that nothing happened. I tried several different browser pages, mashed all the buttons on the keyboard, clicked on the Function key and snooze button twice in case it was in sleep mode, etc. but nothing happened. I finally kept reading reviews on here and noticed on about page 3 or 4 that someone mentioned they changed their USB settings and their keyboard finally started working. So, I immediately went to my Settings, Advanced Settings, and then USB BUS MODE and changed it from DEVICE mode to HOST mode and VOILA - the keyboard immediately started functioning. Not only that, but I can have it connected or not connected and both the external keyboard and my device keyboard still function normally. For anyone that hooks it up to their tablet and thinks it is not actually working - please try this and it might save you the time and hassle of sending it back to the manufacturer.I have so far been able to browse faster, type more quickly and get through many more screens faster using this keyboard and cover than I was ever able to do with my fingers and stylus with the tablet and device keyboard in the past. I am going to LOVE this purchase!!

I have been looking for a keyboard to use with the Google Nexus 7 but they all seem to cost an arm and a leg. I jumped on this one when it only cost around $8.00 and have been satisfied so far.The product arrived three days past the expected delivery date.Nexus 7 fits snuggly into the case however it is tricky to get it in and out. The table sits on two "shelves" on the bottom and then a top piece (probably spring loaded) applies pressure securely holding the tablet in. However, pulling the top piece up enough to slide the table in can be tricky and getting the tablet back out again has the same problem. But I found this relatively minor.To get the keyboard to work with the Google Nexus 7 you need one of these:  eForCity Micro USB OTG to USB 2.0 Adapter  They are cheap and will allow you to connect the keyboard to your Nexus 7. Also you can use this adapter to connect other USB drives or devices to your tablet which is a great option to extend the storage of your device. It also makes it very easy to move files between your tablet and other computers without having to use email, Google Drive, or Dropbox. You also might need a free app called StickMount (Android) to ensure your device registers the USB connection.In addition, when you connect the Google Nexus 7, in the top left corner a little keyboard notification may appear, if you swipe down from there and select "Choose Input Method" you will be taken to a settings screen where you can select the keyboard device. It may appear as "Hardware: Physical Keyboard" or "CZW USB Keyboard". You will probably only have to do this once. The only other thing I struggled with briefly was I opened up a text document and then started typing but nothing happened. What I forgot to do was press in the text document so that a cursor appeared, after the cursor appeared I could typ normally.The USB connection cord is very long and you should have no problem reaching the input port on your device no matter where it is. Just remember, this is a regular sized usb input (2.0) meaning, it will NOT fit in a micro USB slot. Look at your tablet now, if there is not a place to plug in a regular USB thumb drive then you will probably need some sort of adapter to make this work.The product also includes a tiny stylus, however this stylus will not work on your Nexus 7, it will only work on tablets whose screens respond to pressure instead of the electrical signals in your hands. A good way to test which type of scree you have is to see if you can still use the touch screen with gloves on. If you can use your tablet with gloves on then your screen is pressure sensitive, if you can't then it is using electrical stimulation (aka capacitive touch).There is also a kickstand that allows you to prop the tablet side up while you type, this appears to work fine.The keyboard appears fully functional. It is cramped and will take some getting used too, but even with the adjustment it is still faster to type on than if you were just using the screens keyboard. The only real difficulty I had was with the right side of the keyboard since the majority of the extra buttons (i.e. not letter buttons) reside there making it a bit more cramped and difficult to hit the space bar with your right thumb or the shift key with your right pinkie.All in all, it gets the job done and is excellent for the price. The keyboard is small and functional though I would say the case as a whole is a tad bulky. However, you are not going to find a cheaper tablet keyboard out there so if you would like to have one, or are curious about one, I'd say this is the product to get,

Brauchte eine Hülle für mein 7 zoll Tablet.Bestellt und Innerhalb 1 Woche !!! war dieses Wunderding da.Mit englischer Tastatur aber mann kann am Tablet auf Deutsch umschalten. Das Tablet sitzt gut in der Halterung.Nur einen Adapter braucht mann noch für den mini USB eingang.( Vom Keyboard zum Tablet geht nur ein Normalstecker - USB ). Mal sehen wie der Magnetverschluss die Hülle mit Tablet zusammen hält.Ich lege noch einen kleinen Schutz zw. Tastatur und Tablet ein Brillenptutztuch.Das Hält den Staub etwas fern vom Display. Ich ziehe immer nach dem Abschalten des Tablets den USB Stecker heraus, weil sich mein Akku mit eingestecktem USB selbst entlädt. Das ist kein Mängel seitens vom Keyboard und deshalb gebe ich 5 Sterne.

for the money, a very good item. Connecting the keyboard very straightforward, getting it to work not so easy, but cracked it after a few oaths were uttered! You do have to manipulate the little clamps to get the tablet to fit, but once in place, all ok.

i got this keyboard cause the tablet screen was crap when trying to type anything ,,,, now i love the tablet cause this peice .... all you need is the usb adapter that came with the tablet ... oh ya and the sent me a free stylus too ....this peice is well worth the money ... oh and it looks real good too

entgegen den negativen aussagen,das die tastatur nach herunterfahren des pads abgezogen werden muss kann ich hier nur sagen,das muss wohl gerätebedingt sein.habe die tastatur ständig an meinem prestigio multipad angeschlossen und bisher keine akku-entladung feststellen können,auch bereits erwähnte herausgefallende tasten habe ich noch nicht gefunden.demzufolge könnte es sich hier nur um eine fehlerhafte verarbeitung handeln.aber dies kommt leider überall mal vor und so ist die teilweise negative berwertung evtl darauf zurück zuführen.oder sollte ich mit dem tadellos funktionierenden case etwa nur glück gehabt haben?

I still can't get keyboard power. But I'm going to try I new usb extender
