Arteck Protection Case & Stand HB030B Bluetooth Keyboard (Bluetooth Keyboard not included)

Frankly, I was initially a little resentful that I had to buy this stand separately rather than it coming with the  Arteck HB030B Universal Slim Portable Wireless Bluetooth 3.0 7-Colors Backlit Keyboard with Built in Rechargeable Battery, Black  as a complete bundle. I got over it. They're affordable individually and together, and this simple little gizmo is beautifully and functionally engineered.1) Perfect size. It's small, but large enough to accommodate the Arteck keyboard and an 8" tablet. Maybe a larger tablet would fit on it as well--dunno--my 8" fits exactly as you can see in the photos. The case folds compactly and easily fits into any purse (any purse that merits the name--you're not gonna get it into one of those teeny clubbing wallets) or briefcase. BTW, does anyone still carry a briefcase?2) Easy. It snaps open to a tablet stand and closed again effortlessly and in about a nanosecond.3) Stable. When it's open or closed, it stays that way with strategically placed magnets.4) It's cute. Okay, not a big selling point since this is a utilitarian item. But who can resist something that looks like origami?

Elegant as in, does what it does very well, and does nothing extra or unnecessary. I love it. It looks great protecting my little keyboard (I am thrilled to discover that there are finally abundant, decent quality, backlit Bluetooth keyboards, BTW) and the stand works. It is not an elaborate stand by any means at all, and it needs a solid surface beneath it. I've managed it on my lap without a lap desk, but that's seriously pushing things. But WITH a lap desk, or (horrors) AT a desk or table, wonderful. The tablet, ensconced in a heavy, Otter-knockoff case, sits stably behind the keyboard, which doesn't slide around at all. It IS small, but after all, that's why I wanted it. So I could easily carry it around with my tablet. Which I can do--I hardly notice the keyboard/case combination is there at all. Wonderful. Just what I wanted. And now,, thanks to the Q&A section, I know how to access the different colors. Not necessary, but an easy touch to add these days and kinda nice. Now I can finally use my tablet after dark without bothering anyone, and I can use a keyboard as well without havng to point the tablet's screen down at the keyboard to find whatever key I need. Yes,, I touch type, but on such a small keyboard I need to be able to find the right position first, you know? Very happy, with keyboard and case both.

While I'm mostly satisfied with the HB030B keyboard, I'm still a little on the fence about it. This case may be what convinces me to keep it.There's not a lot to review about it, it does what's advertised. It holds onto the keyboard magnetically, and it's a pretty decent hold. It adds minimal bulk when wrapped around the keyboard, so it protects without taking up noticeable additional space. And the best part, te part that sold me most, is the stand feature, provided by simply folding the half of the cover that isn't attached to the keyboard. Setting it up to do some web browsing or streaming is pretty much instant.If I could change anything, it would be to add a built-in riser at the rear of the keyboard somehow. Something using similar materials and magnets, that unfolds and props it up. As it is, it's pretty much flat against whatever surface it's on. Which is fine for casual use, but it could still be a little more comfortable.On the smaller flap, there are 2 bumps which I think are intended to be wrist rest, and leaving them out (instead of tucking them under, as I usually do) does provide a little bit of an angle. But it's a very small tilt, and if they're wrist rests there isn't much to rest on. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, and the bumps are just a design.Overall very happy with it. Had more issues with the keyboard than the case, but the combination is actually pretty nice, and the combined price is reasonable.

[Update: The case is good for use on a flat surface (e.g. desk) but not for laps. I actually quite like it after using it for a while. However, it is still too expensive.Besides, I received an email from the customer service which offered me a full refund (perhaps due to my negative comment). I didn’t accept the offer but I did increase the rating from 3 stars to 4 stars because of its customer service. The CS also stated in the email the weights of the case and the keyboard, indicating that the case in fact is slightly lighter than the keyboard. However, I didn’t find this fact useful for changing my view, though my comment was slightly inaccurate factually.]I bought the Arteck keyboard because it was light. And then I bought this case to protect the keyboard and to use it as a stand. However, the case was even heavier than the keyboard and forfeited the main strength of the keyboard. The case was a nicely designed one but it does not provide much value. Now I would just put my iPad and the keyboard together in a small bag to protect the keyboard and the iPad unless I really needed a stand.

Having recently purchased the new Samsung Galaxy Tab 5e, I found it a little cumbersome to hold and make quick typing progress - a keyboard with Bluetooth connectivity seemed to be the answer and after much research I opted for the Arteck Protection Case & Stand and keyboard.The comprehensive instructions allowed me to quickly marry it to the Tab and I was soon working with something more akin to a small laptop. Brilliant! The icing on the cake was the addition of a Bluetooth mouse (an Amazon basic)This is terrific value for money and I thoroughly recommend it.

Protects keyboatd well and makes a stable test for the tablet. Very useful!

I really like this case, especially the way it can turn into a stand for your tablet or phone. A single charge will last a long time, easily a week. Lovely with my Arteck keyboard, and it doesn't seem to have warped. I feel confident using it to transport my keyboard.

I love this stand. It is very reasonably priced for the quality of the product. It works on a very basic tripod principle. Two of the legs extend increasing stability which is perfect for even larger laptops or tablets. As it is a tripod it folds away very small to fit in my laptop accessories bag (small toiletry bag/pencil case). It comes with a pouch so it can stay clear. it is made quite sturdy, am hoping its durable.

Not to bad seems strong and well made keyboard stuck to case with magnets and you can use half side of the case as stand for handset or tablet , be aware I just purchase but I am confident I had more then one chat via email with the seller about the keyboard and they are very reliable reply pretty quick so even come up any issue I am confident they will fix it.
