Review: The Microsoft Surface Go 1 or 2 companion you must have. Too bad ther'es no Fingerprint ID - If you already have a Surface Go 1 or 2 or considering buying one, then consider this Type Cover keyboard, because it will look lonely without it. ;) It's just too bad that the Surface Go Type Cover Keyboards don't come with the Fingerprint ID that exists in the newer Surface Pro Type Cover Keyboards. The keyboard is overall great. The material, the spacing of the keys, their travel and the trackpad. Adding to that the backlit light, the magnets patent and the textured feel and it makes a great companion for the Surface Go. I picked the black version which is slightly cheaper than the other colors, but the price wasn't the factor of my decision. The factor for me was the material; the black one is more of a rubbery feel where you lay your hands, which is less difficult to clean. While the other colors have the Alcantara luxury material which is more challenging to clean. But I think that the back is the Alcantra luxury material because it's different from the top, but I'm not certain. Picking the black version also led me to pick the black Surface Pen and Mouse over the other colors, and I must say that looking on them all together is very satisfying. If you're in doubts regarding the colors, maybe the picture of the entire set I added to this review will help you to decide. :) Above the pros above, below are a few matters I find as cons: - No Fingerprint ID. - There is no Right-CTRL key, only left one. - There is no right-click key, which I find very useful if you're navigating only with the keyboard. - There is no fingerprint feature. - You can't use this keyboard when it's disconnected from the Surface. - The FN-Lock to make the F1 through F12 keys be the default than their alternative behaviors is a little tricky to activate; you have to press and hold the FN key for a half second to a second until its led turns on. The second problem on this topic is that the PrtScn, Home, End, PgUp, PgDn keys are the alternate behaviors of the F8 through F12 keys. And to use then while the FN-Lock is activated you need to also hold the FN key. But it could be nitpicking. I'm satisfying with it nevertheless. Review: GO get one... - Microsoft hit it out of the park with the Surface tablets and accessories. Oh yeah, they are not perfect. However, they are as good as anything out there, if not better. Overall, with the accessories considered, including the Surface Go keyboard, pen and mouse, I would rate the Surface Go and Surface Pro the best tablets available. However, I would never recommend the 4 Gb RAM versions. But how about the keyboard? Well, I ordered Ice Blue. The color was a tad darker than I thought it would be and it is darker than the pen and mouse, however, that is the only complaint. This is my second Surface Go keyboard. Call me crazy but I like to accessorize and change things up a bit now and again. The device works as expected. Click it in place and it works. The keys are comfortable. To give you an idea of hand size, I wear L/XL women's gloves or M men's gloves. Plus, I type about 70 wpm. Do not have any issues with the keyboard or buttons. Microsoft really did well with the design, given how small the keyboard is. I have the ipad with the keyboard and it is a nightmare compared to using the Surface Go keyboard. Also have the Samsung Tab S6 tablet and keyboard. The Microsoft wins hands down. Plus you get to use the MS OS. The touchpad is responsive as well. I use the Go for business related functions. The keyboard works just like on my PC. I can wholly and fully recommend the Surface Go alcantara keyboard! GO for it. ## Features - The next-generation classic click-in keyboard for Surface now comes in four colors and is backlit to keep you working when the lights go down. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B086QCKTMZ | | Additional Features | Lighting | | Antenna Location | Office | | Best Sellers Rank | #4,435 in Tablet Cases | | Brand | Microsoft | | Built-In Media | Type Cover | | Button Quantity | 3 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Tablet | | Compatible Operating System Family | Windows | | Connectivity Technology | USB-C, wireless | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 2,754 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Generation | Likely Newer Generation | | Hand Orientation | Ambidextrous | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 9.76"L x 7.48"W x 0.18"H | | Item Weight | 0.68 Pounds | | Keyboard Backlighting Color Support | Single Color | | Keyboard Description | Backlit | | Keyboard Layout | QWERTY | | Language | English | | Manufacturer | Microsoft | | Mechanical Keyboard Switch Model | Cherry MX Red | | Mfr Part Number | KCM-00025 | | Minimum Required Operating System Version | Windows 10 | | Model Name | Surface Go Type Cover | | Model Number | KCM-00025 | | Number of Keys | 77 | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Recommended Uses For Product | Office | | Special Feature | Lighting | | Style Name | Classic | | Switch Type | Linear | | UPC | 889842590630 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 1-year limited hardware warranty | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Microsoft - **Color:** Black - **Compatible Devices:** Tablet - **Connectivity Technology:** USB-C, wireless - **Keyboard Description:** Backlit - **Keyboard backlighting color support:** Single Color - **Product Dimensions:** 9.76"L x 7.48"W x 0.18"H - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Office - **Special Feature:** Lighting - **Style:** Classic ## Images ![NEW USB-C Microsoft Surface Go Type Cover - Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61YP+LAtnYL.jpg) ![NEW USB-C Microsoft Surface Go Type Cover - Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61uS3REbV9L.jpg) ![NEW USB-C Microsoft Surface Go Type Cover - Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61I77AdAQRL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is it compatible with surface pro 7?** A: No. The surface go is significantly smaller than the 7 pro. **Q: Is there any magnet at the bottom of the keyboard?** A: Yes there is a magnet at the bottom of the keyboard. **Q: I hate my surface go because i actually use it as a laptop.the kickstand is not working on my lap and the computer collapses. how do i make it stiff?** A: I think you should go to the warranty or Microsoft support. **Q: Compatible with surface pro 1943?** A: No it will not work with surface pro ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Microsoft Surface Go 1 or 2 companion you must have.

Although that was good, it had unexpected lags and was sometimes hard to wake. Even the backlighting on that case was a little problematic becuase it was so much brighter around the keys than through them, making it hard to read the keys. So, despite it being double the cost, I went back to the Microsoft OEM product and have not been disappointed! It feels lighter, never lags, has perfect keyboard action and the backlighting is exactly what it should be - you can see the letter/symbol on the key well instead of just the key outline. It is worth the extra cost. ## Frequently Bought Together - NEW USB-C Microsoft Surface Go Type Cover - Black - SPARIN [2 Pack] Screen Protector Compatible with Microsoft Surface Go 4/Surface Go 3/Surface Go 2/Surface Go (2021/2020) 10.5 Inch, Tempered Glass, High Responsive - MoKo Case Fit Microsoft Surface Go 4 /Surface Go 3 / Surface Go 2 / Surface Go Case, All-in-One Protective Cover Case with Pen Holder Hand Strap, Compatible with Type Cover Keyboard, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/203747900-new-usb-c-microsoft-surface-go-type-cover-black](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/203747900-new-usb-c-microsoft-surface-go-type-cover-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
