Bright Blue Type Cover for Surface 3
The Microsoft A7Z-00002 is a bright blue keyboard cover designed for the Surface 3 2-in-1 device. It adds a backlit mechanical keyboard and integrated touchpad for productive typing. The cover also protects the tablet screen when closed. Ideal for Surface 3 owners who want a laptop-like experience.
Thin profile and lightweight for daily carry
The accessory measures 10.5 by 7.4 by 1.09 inches and weighs 9.35 ounces. Its slim mechanical design adds minimal bulk to the tablet. Passive cooling keeps operation silent during normal use. No external power draw is required as it connects directly to the device.
Magnetic attachment with backlit mechanical keys
The cover attaches magnetically and draws power through the Surface 3 connector. Backlit keys and a glass trackpad support Windows shortcuts and media controls. Buyers needing a wireless Bluetooth keyboard or a cover for other tablet models should look elsewhere. Condition is new.

Questions about this item
How do I attach the Type Cover to my Surface 3, and what alignment step do people often miss?
The cover connects magnetically along the bottom edge; the step users miss is letting the magnets pull it fully flush so the keyboard and touchpad sit flat without a gap.
Which part of the Bright Blue Type Cover is most likely to wear out first and need replacement?
The mechanical key switches and backlight LEDs under daily typing are the components that degrade before the magnetic hinge or touchpad surface.
At what point does the 1.09 inch thick cover start to feel unstable during sustained lap use?
The 1.09 inch profile remains rigid on a flat surface, but on a soft lap the flexible fabric hinge can let the screen wobble after extended typing sessions.
