Due to the high power that current tablets have, more than one user sees them as an excellent option to make them a perfect substitute for laptops (and thus take advantage of their low weight and reduced dimensions). One of the accessories that you must have for this are those that allow you to enter text comfortably, and one of the best options is folding Bluetooth keyboards.
These accessories are most useful when leaving the house, since they take up very little space in the backpack and, once opened, have full functionality. In this way, entering texts in office applications becomes quite comfortable. In addition, as they use Bluetooth technology, there is no need to put a cable in between, which favors being able to use them in any place and situation (in addition, this connection interface ensures excellent compatibility).
What is basic in these folding Bluetooth keyboards
Apart from being sure that the Bluetooth version they use is 3.0 or higher , it is important to check that at least one week of use is achieved in what has to do with autonomy. And this should be the case regardless of the battery they use: an integrated option that is rechargeable or traditional batteries (type AA or AAA).
Another thing that is important to check is that the weight of the device does not exceed 200 grams , since otherwise it becomes a “brick” in the backpack and you have to discard carrying it in your jacket pocket ( something that is one of the most striking possibilities that you have the folding Bluetooth keyboards). As far as the folding system is concerned, the ideal is to have a three-element hinge system … and the models that are rollable should not be ruled out.
It is not a bad idea that the model you select includes function keys to take advantage of all the shortcuts that tablet operating systems have, such as Android. In addition, some models have a small touchpad that allows you to control the mouse pointer, so it is possible to get a two-in-one that, for many, will be the perfect choice.
