In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the pros and cons of a slim keyboard cover designed for traveling with a tablet. They note that while the cover makes the tablet portable, it is relatively expensive, costing around $200 to $350. One significant disadvantage highlighted is that the keyboard cover is not detachable, meaning if users remove the keyboard, the tablet is left unprotected. This could be problematic for those who prefer using a tablet without a keyboard in certain situations, such as on a kitchen counter or their lap. The speaker compares this product to Apple’s Magic Keyboard, expressing a preference for a detachable kickstand. Despite this, they acknowledge that some users might prefer always having a keyboard attached. For those individuals, the slim keyboard cover could be a good option, provided they do not require an integrated mouse or trackpad. Additionally, the speaker emphasizes the importance of having a kickstand and protecting accessories like the S Pen, recommending the book cover keyboard despite its high price due to its improved rigidity compared to previous models.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the significant improvements and issues with the Tab S9 Ultra keyboard cover compared to previous models. They highlight that the trackpad on the newer model feels more premium and the keys have more travel, providing a better typing experience. Additionally, the new cover includes backlighting, unlike the slim keyboard cover. The kickstand is also sturdier than before. However, despite these improvements, there remains a recurring issue with missed keystrokes, particularly with the word “you” when typed quickly, which seems to be a common problem with Samsung keyboards. The speaker concludes that while the keyboard cover has many enhancements, it is not worth its high price compared to other options like the Microsoft Surface keyboards.

The speaker also addresses compatibility between the Tab S8 Ultra and Tab S9 Ultra keyboards, noting that while the Tab S8 Ultra keyboard can technically be used with the Tab S9 Ultra (albeit with some limitations), the reverse is not true, as the Tab S9 Ultra keyboard did not work with the Tab S8 Ultra in their tests.
