Keyboard Cover for S2 8.0 - Galaxy Tab S2 Accessories

Anyone know if there will be (or is) an official Samsung keyboard cover for the S2 8.0? I had one for my S 8.4, and although it wasn't *great*, it was far better than the competition, whom all used funky elastic corners or slide in pockets to hold the device.
(also, as I've *never* actually done this, FIRST, lol)

Samsung Keyboard Cover for S2 8.0 is available here. Browse here for your piece..............................

Most likely not, only for the tab s2 9.7

I wanted the official one, but the S2 8.0 does not have one.
I will probably go for a Microsoft one, which works for android, ios and windows.

If you have it stood up, does it stand the correct way to watch Netflix? Reason I ask is because it would raise it up backwards and the screen would be upside down. (Netflix doesn't auto rotate properly)
I walk by J&R everyday, I may have to take a trip inside to check it out.
Did you notice if they have the USB and/or SD 30-pin adapters in stock?

I thought all of the samsung cases caused tab to be upside down in one of the positions?
at least that is what many are saying in the thread dedicated to that case.
It will be upside down in the typing position with the samsung book case I have. I've heard there's new ones which are the other way... which will make the tablet upside down when in the multimedia viewing position.
I have the original version and like it a lot. All of the other non-samsung cases just look cheezy.

What do you mean by "correctly". Upside-down on typing mode or viewing mode?

Upside down on on typing mode, and power buton and headphone jack on top on multimedia mode.
That's exactly the same layout as the other 3 model numbers floating around. Meaning that there is ONLY ONE version of this case. The version you mentioned.

No sorry but I am sure you could ask them at the web site somewhere.
on ebay, they are selling the refurbished units for $39.99.
Hello qbking77,
I just got a eWonder softkey silicone keyboard. It is great but i find silicone keyboard little odd. And I also find that keyboard can be very productive. I was wondering do you really like the logitech zagg keyboard. I think I can spend $99 for a good keyboard. How are keys? How does it feel? Do you like the size? How is the viewing angle?
I like you review on Youtube. Good work.
Thanks.
I wish Logitech makes the same keyboard with ITA layout but actually these dumbs only make ITA keyb for that damn i-thing
Target brick and mortar stores are carrying these for $59.99 new. Most of the stores in my area have a couple in stock. Thankfully their site indicates if a store has an item in stock or not.
A big YMMV on this. The Tab 10.1 16GB has also been marked down to $399.99 at local stores in my area. I picked up both and am quite happy with the setup. Couldn't imagine giving up my MacBook Pro but this has pretty much replaced it for light every day computing duty.
XT9 (spell check and word completion)
I received my Logictech Keyboard case for the Samsung Galaxy tab 10.I am very satisfied with it. There is one inconvenience that I am having. The XT9 (spell check and word completion) is disabled when it connects. I was able to get it to work by rebooting, but once the touch keyboard vanishes it no longer works. Does anyone know how to make it work?
Thanks

Samsung keyboard?

Any idea when the keyboard dock will be released?
I saw a thread on how to modify the keyboard for the Galaxy Tab, but I'd rather not do that if the Note keyboard will be out shortly.
Have no idea why Samsung doesnt release their accessories at the same time they release the product. To me they are just leaving money on the table. I mean all they need to do to release a keyboard for the note is change the size of the holder for the Tab keyboard.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using Tapatalk 2
Agreed. I have money in hand to buy the Samsung OEM bluetooth keyboard, OEM Bluetooth Pen, Otterbox case, etc. Unfortunately we are left with cheesy aftermarket crap and slim pickens from Samsung.
It would make sense if this werent their flagship product. I mean you would think they would want it swathed in brand name Samsung gear but no, nothing.
Its like hitting a home run but getting called out because you didnt want to run the bases.
All I can say is that Koreans are an odd bunch.
Sent from my GT-N8013 using Tapatalk 2
My feelings exactly. This is supposed to be Samsung's answer to the iPad. Unfortunately, the company isn't presenting their products in the best possible manner. And, I don't think the aftermarket crowd is going to lend much support with accessories until this tablet proves its worth in sales numbers.
What I'd really like to see is someone release a smart cover similar to the iPad's with a keyboard built into it like the Microsoft Windows 8 surface variety. But, maybe that's not a good idea considering the recent Samsung/Apple patent wars.

There's one being sold by HH Gregg online that is for the Tab, but seems to fit the Note, too. Several on Amazon have purchased it.
I migrated from the Tab 10.1 to the Note 10.1, I loved that keyboard, simply cause of the way it was designed and built. The tablet sits there locked in and you can have it on your lap comfortably or a table. Sadly, the tab's keyboard and the note are not compatible cause the note is a bite wider than the tab. Such a shame. Now I have to fork ~$80 for a new keyboard.

Please post a link not sure the exact keyboard you are referring to
I didn't post a link because I couldn't find it and by now they are sold out. Note users on Amazon snatched them right up.

If you care about whether it's real leather, and not PU, make sure to email them and ask the dirty question. They tend to not mention that it's not real leather.

TYping on mine now ! - Arrived about an hour ago. Not as good as the Transformer Prime keyboard is my first impression, but it does keep the tab at a nice angle. Need to find away to stop the soft keyboard popping up though, thats really annoying.
Mine arrived this morning. Not bad at all seen as though I am in Holland and I ordered it from the UK around 17:00 yesterday.
Oh, and it visited Brussels on its way to me.
Unfortunately it has been delivered with a less than attached space bar, so I need to arrange a replacement.

Another option is to download null keyboard from the market and select it as the software keyboard and you should be good to go.

I've been waiting for this, but it looks like its already sold out.
Where are you located, and what's that store's ETA for delivery? From what I can tell on their website, they're located in the UK. I'm hoping for a US supplier of the keyboard so I don't have to wait a month and pay 2x the keyboard price to have it shipped.

It might well be worth waiting for a keyboard from the US which will have a familiar layout, rather than having to deal with the different layout of Keys on a UK spec one - take it from someone who has to use Swiss-German at work and UK at home :-&

shiiiiiiit (said in clay davis voice) what is the difference between a UK/US keyboard layout? they never mention that it is the UK version on the link i bought it from that i can find. after they sent me the shipping info though they are obviously based in the UK, which also explains the higher price.

you can probably adjust the Settings>Language and input to appropriate language - I did this on my apple keyboard, I think the @ and " keys were mixed, fixed when I switched from Australia to USA input.
a blue-tooth keyboard is much better than a dock, specially when combine with OTG usb for a mouse, or charging, am i right?

Not if you enter any secure data. Bluetooth keyboards are banned at my employer because all of your keyboard input can be easily sniffed from a surprisingly long distance away. Plus, I don't want more batteries to worry about. The Samsung keyboard dock lets you charge while using the keyboard. I hope to hack it up a bit and embed a USB hub into it as well.

In-Flight (USB/Dock) Keyboard for Note

I just realized one thing I'll miss about my Transformer is having a physically connected keyboard that I can use while travelling by plane. From what I've read Bluetooth keyboards are a no-no for in flight usage. Has anyone used a USB connected mini-keyboard using the Samsung USB adapter? I also know Samsung will be coming out (from what I've read here) with a keyboard dock but it's not available yet. I thought I also read somewhere that the Tab 10.1 dock will work with the Note 10.1.
Has anyone had any luck or a good setup for using an in-flight keyboard setup for the Note 10.1?

Ok, I know everyone will probably gag on this but...
As I was reading this thread, I went upstairs and obsconded (kids dont use it, WTH) the WII Usb KB and connected it. Works fantastic!
If you have one laying around... it may solve your want.
I picked up the official Samsung keyboard dock last week, it works nicely for that purpose!
http://www.samsung.com/au/consumer/...es/EKD-K14AWEGSTD?subsubtype=other-multimedia
Unfortunately, it's expensive and not available in most stores yet. Picked it up from the Samsung store in Sydney CBD.
Just so you know, Australia and USA both use the US keyboard layout (as opposed to the UK, which uses the UK layout), so maybe that could help you guys in the states source one of these? You won't have a messed up layout like you would ordering from the UK. Then again, I don't know any Australian place offering these for shipping internationally so that could be moot.

Very frustrating to not have these available for purchase in the US.
Is it possible to close it? Like the transformer or a regular laptop? Dont feel like not being able to close it..
An extra battery would be nice though incase of very long flights or train/car rides..
It doesn't hinge so you can't "fold" it closed like a regular laptop. Instead you just pull it out of the dock.
I know it has been discussed but I wanted to share my work. Not beautiful but it works. This is the dock for the Tab 10.1 modified for use with my Note 10.1
