Ultra-thin keyboard cover

The Microsoft RF2-00001 is a 5.00mm ultra-thin Type Cover that doubles as a protective case for Surface Pro 3. Mechanical keys deliver rapid typing with an improved experience for lap use, while the backlit layout includes Windows shortcut, function and media keys. An integrated touchpad provides easy navigation without a separate mouse.

Buyers wanting a cover with built-in input

This accessory suits anyone who wants a single folio that protects the screen and adds a full keyboard and trackpad. It is not for buyers who want more storage or extra ports, because the cover adds no connectivity or capacity. It is also not for owners of other Surface models, as the magnetic attachment and key layout are specific to Surface Pro 3.

5.00mm ultra-thin form factor

The defining specification is the 5.00mm thickness, which keeps the combined device slim enough for tablet-style handling. If your bag or sleeve is sized for a bare tablet, this cover may not fit; if you need a thicker, more rugged case, this is not the right part.

Questions about this item

Will the mechanical keys or backlight need servicing after heavy daily typing?

The mechanical keys and backlight are built into the 5.00 mm ultra-thin cover; no user-serviceable parts are mentioned, so the unit is replaced rather than repaired if either fails.

What stops me from typing continuously for hours on this cover?

The 5.00 mm profile leaves no room for active cooling, so sustained comfort is limited by the thin key travel and the heat your hands transfer to the Surface Pro 3 underneath.

Does the cover get warm or make noise when I leave it attached all day?

The cover itself has no fan or moving parts, so it adds no audible noise and negligible heat beyond what the Surface Pro 3 generates during normal operation.
