If you ever find yourself wishing for a keyboard when working on your iOS or Android device then you already have a lot of options available to you. Many companies big and small create such accessories for smartphones and tablets, Microsoft is one of those companies. It has released a new foldable keyboard today which costs $100 and does work with mobile devices.
Microsoft first showed off this foldable keyboard back at the Mobile World Congress 2015 in Barcelona. It can literally be folded in half which makes the keyboard quite portable.
The company calls it the Universal Foldable Keyboard and it used Bluetooth to pair with iOS and Android devices, as well as with Windows and OS X computers. It’s quite similar in this way to Microsoft’s Universal Mobile Keyboard which is not foldable but does work with all of these devices.
Once charged the keyboard is good for about three months and happens to be quite lightweight and portable. It can be paired up with two devices simultaneously and users can easily switch between the two by using buttons located on the top row.
The Universal Folding Keyboard from Microsoft is now available for purchase through Microsoft’s online stores, retail stores and through Amazon for $99.95.
