Very nice, but missing a few things.

Overall this keyboard gives the Galaxy Tab 10.1 a huge upgrade - making it feel more powerful like a netbook or small laptop - yet still having the portability and flexibility of a tablet. It has many quick access feature keys like brightness, volume control, and music controls to name a few. It definately makes using a tablet worthwhile. One of the largest annoyances, however, is that any time a text field is selected onscreen with the tablet docked, the onscreen keyboard still pops up taking half the screen. Fortunately there is a keyboard show/hide button, but this is still highly annoying and will hopefully be resolved with a software update. The other issue here is that it requires that you have the Samsung onscreen keyboard enabled in order to use the keyboard. I find this unacceptable as I prefer to use "thumb keyboard" when I am not docked and do not want to have to change keyboards every time I dock the tablet. I will also tell you that I see a small bit of lag as well as a missed key press while typing. The latter issue is less frequent, but is there none-the-less. I also occasionaly havvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee an issue where a key "sticks" even though it is noooooooooooooooot being pressed. (I did not correct this sentence so that you could actually see a demonstration of what I am talking about. This is a legitimate error above, I did not do that myself.) It may be that I have a defective keyboard, but I am just reporting *my* experience with this unit - so please take it with a grain of salt as it may not be the case with all units. I will be exchanging this one to be sure. Now if it were a perfect world, I would like to have seen an HDMI port and a micro SD card slot built in to this keyboard - especially since the tablet has neither. I know that an adapter will be coming, but how nice would it have been to see perhaps a second version of this keyboard that included these features for a small bit more. Overall, I would say it is a good purchase, and definately makes the tablet more versatile. I would like to have seen a few additional features and less glitches, but that would be a perfect world. *It should also be noted that I typed this entire review using the keyboard dock.

Doesnt work!!!

Imagine my surprise when I get it home, dock the 10.1, and find the keyboard to be completely unrecognized, despite the fact that the tablet is up-to-date and running Android 3.1. According to the instructions: "To use the keyboard dock, the mobile tablet needs to have the input method set to Samsung keypad. On inserting the mobile tablet, you will be asked to change to Samsung keypad if it's not already set. Press the OK button to accept this change." The 10.1 was already set to "Samsung Keypad," and none of this happened when I docked the tablet. Instead, it automatically launched the clock that shows up when the device is docked. Pressing the button specifically for hiding/showing the Time/Date and Application indicator did nothing. As a matter of fact, pressing ANY the keys on the keyboard had no effect. I could still interact with the touchscreen, but the dimmed full-screen clock app never went away, and got in the way of the homescreen. I removed and reinserted the tablet a dozen times, I rebooted it, I checked all settings and running processes to see what was getting in the way, I tried plugged in versus unplugged. Nothing made it work and I started to think Samsung had launched a terrible product. This struck me as a magnificent shame because design-wise, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 keyboard dock is exceptional. With comfortably-sized chiclet keys, a dozen Honeycomb-specific navigation keys, and a body that feels sturdy without feeling heavy. Using email or productivity apps like Quickoffice Pro HD (which I have increasingly grown fond of) could really benefit from having a nice quality full-sized keyboard to go along with it. Then, despite all I had done, it randomly started to work after I had put it aside for a little while, and it hasn't stopped yet. As I had hoped, the full-sized keyboard allows for completely natural, fast text entry, while also taking advantage of Honeycomb's multitasking capabilities. What you're reading right now was written on the Galaxy Tab Keyboard Dock as a testament to its quality. As always, your mileage may vary.

Comments about Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Full Size Keyboard Dock:

The keyboard dock consistently causes my tablet to crash. It appears to crash when they keyboard is plugged in to recharge and the tablet tries to enter sleep mode. I've looked around the web, and it appears to be a common problem with no solutions offered by samsung.

Comments about Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Full Size Keyboard Dock:

I, I mean, we (my hubby and me) love this product so much. It is absolutely beautiful! Here's a word of advice for couples: Be SMART don't buy just one! I bought two and I am so glad I did. I take this everywhere with me, as it is small enough to fit in Hobo bag or purse. Pages load quickly, graphics are stunning, the apps are delish! All I have to say is, "I Pad...who?!" Faithful Samsunger!

For the money you'd think it would have a USB port. Just one would have been nice. Other then that highly recommended.

I got this to go with my Galaxy tab and I just love it. It makes it so much easier to navigate. It has great short cut keys to make it easy to get where you want. I only wish it would charge the Galaxy Tax, but I still enjoy using this item. I would recommend it to anyone.

Comments about Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Full Size Keyboard Dock:

I use this keyboard daily, it is easy and functional, it has all the necessary keying functions you would use on the tablet, without having to fight with a stylus or finger and hit the wrong option. Very helpful when the field you want to command is tiny!

quite useful

By drb2011

Comments about Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Full Size Keyboard Dock:

It is quite useful if you are using tablet for everything. But so far, I used table for just reading, occasional quick email/web surfing. But wish price was bit lower.
