Looking at getting a Bluetooth keyboard for my Desire. I have it running 2.3 so should work with HID keyboards. There seem to be lots of very similar looking ones, Adapt ADK-100, Freedom i-Connex Mini, 7dayshop mini bluetooth kb, etc. with various prices.
I was going to buy the 7dayshop keyboard but read a couple of posts in Hotukdeals saying that typing is terrible on it. Any thoughts on the others or any other small keyboards?
Not sure if they're not popular but not finding much out about these devices.

I like Diamond very much, but when I have to write an email which is more than couple of words, then it is rather problem with the size of the screen. I though it will be great if we could use a mini keyboard for writting text.
I tried to find any, but some I found are rather big keyboards.
Has sone one found a mini keyboard which we can use with our device?? It can be with bluetooth, but if it was with the USB it will be even better!!!!!

Just wanna share this...
A mini keyboard also known as an ergonomic keyboard, has many benefits. There are many definitions of ergonomics, keep in mind that they vary based on the working conditions. The most basic definition is the science of people-machine relationships. Make sure that you become aware with each and every aspect of ergonomics so that you can avoid problems that come from working with the wrong posture.

How many times have you seen a cool phone and thought "damn I wish that phone had a QWERTY keyboard!". Well now there is a solution to it.
I found this (link at the bottom of the message) QWERTY keyboard while looking for some chinese cloned phones. It looks pretty owesome!! Now how the hell do we get this to work. BTW I can buy this phone and get the QWERTY keyboard. Then I want to use the QWERTY keyboard for some decent phones. But how can we do that?? I dont think it will be like windows XP that I can plug it in and it will find the driver and all done!
So any ideas on how do I proceed with this?
Thanks

You are very unlikely to get this working with any other phone. If you want a keyboard then you are probably better off looking at bluetooth options such as the logitech dinovo mini, or some of the folding ones.
Hi guys. I came to the One X after owning a huge load of smartphones equipped with physical qwerty keyboards. I do type decently on the One X, but I miss the precision of physical qwerty.
What options do we have, among either Bluetooth and NFC keyboards? I know there are some horrible chinese keyboards, but I consider those quite useless.
There is for example a Logitech Dnovo Mini, how could we hook it up (physically) to our One X? How long would it take to the phone to recognize it? Would there be any lags in typing?
Has anyone found another way?
Post your thoughts here!!!

Can't speak of the Dinovo Mini specifically, but I have this full -sized Logitech Bluetooth keyboard, that I bought for my HTC Flyer tablet. Don't really use it that much. But it gets recognized by the tablet very quickly (as fast as any other BT device, like headset). Typing is very responsive, and has no significant lag. If the Dinovo Mini works anything the same (and you like the form factor), I think you would be pleased with it.
It's not likely we will see a slide-out keyboard for the One XL.
The camera bulge and shape of the phone makes producing the cases troublesome. The placement of the camera is also an issue, a slide out keyboard would cover the camera and flash.
The only phones that have historically gotten keyboard cases are flat-backed phones with the camera in the corner. The iPhone 5 will be geting a keyboard, the LG nexus might as well.
Our only hope is that the one X+ is the same shape as the one XL, so if anyone makes a keyboard for that phone we could use it as well.
If you just want a keyboard, any bluetooth keyboard will work. A quick search for "bluetooth mini keyboard" will show you plenty of results.
What existing bluetooth keyboard are there as best options? As far as size goes, I'd want a 7.7" keyboard max (better if 5"). I'd really want to skip links to the chinese samples for sale on eBay, those aren't going to fit my requirements for a reason or another.
I have seen the Logitech Dinovo Mini Keyboard. I'd have to invent a way to attach the two as if they were a single device, most of the time. Did anyone do that?
Thanks!!

My fiance is a writer and I have been looking for a bluetooth keyboard so that she can write on her phone and tablet. Right now she has the One S and an older model nook that I am going to be upgrading soon. Any suggestions?
Any Android spec bluetooth keyboard should be fine. Recently there have been a lot of deals around on Motorola keyboard/dock sets, the keyboard is nice.
You can find some Bluetooth keyboards on ebay. Search what you like. I wanted to get one for my nexus 7, but at the moment I don't find I will use it to much so I think I will use the money for something else.
Good Luck!:good:
Hi, I need a small bluetooth keyboard for Tab S 8.5 inch, it's a gift for Father's day, I hope it can work with both android and windows system, because my
mom has a windows system tablet, if you have any good recommendation, please let me know, I really appreciate if you can share a link, thanks in advance.

It really depends on the price you are willing to pay, the quality you want, and the features you expect.
For a highly unique keyboard that has some great features, typing size, compatability, and is small enough to give some cellphones a run for the money the textblade is an interesting choice

Logitech makes a couple android compatible keyboards. This one is a respectable size and has the compatibility you want. The only downside (imho) is the use of aaa batteries instead of a built in rechargeable one but some may see that as a bonus plus keyboards can last a long time on a single set of batteries
logitech keyboard
There are various others but without having more information on the person who will be using the keyboard. Where the keyboard will be used. The main use for the keyboard. (Email, spreadsheet work, or maybe writing a book) Without this information all I can give are a very safe keyboard and a very interesting one.
I love the keyboard. Having this separate keyboard allows me to keep my laptop safely off to the side and out of the way of my separate flat screen display. The tactile feedback from the keys is equivalent to my Tab S 8.5 . Not that "mushy" feel that I have experienced with other keyboards. In terms of size, it is almost equal, and the slight upward angle makes it very comfortable on my wrists. Response time is as quick as using my built in keyboard.

Thank you for your sharing, both looks great and interesting, but the price is kind of expensive. And you are right, people need a fittest keyboard, not the most expensive one. Maybe I will get one for myself,, it's just not my father's type. Thank you all the same.

I just got a new bluetooth keyboard from Ebay.
I typically don't buy keyboards for tablets because the keyboards usually aren't that good and few tablet apps make great use of the keyboards anyway. However, I decided I would try out the Keyboard since I already had the Samsung TabS. Here are my thoughts on the Keyboard:
The keyboard works pretty well. Typing up small messages, web searches, and social media posts work just as you expect it to work.
The keys and trackpad both work well. It's a great deal for the price .

Wow, this is great, it looks just like what my father need, and it has a touchpad, this is awesome for the price, can't wait to give it to my father as a surprise. Thank you so much, dude.:good::good::good:
i have this one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61090583&postcount=34 I prefer this design because of portability. I would have gone for the TextBlade as well but I thought I'd wait for the price to drop a bit.
