The keyboard unfortunately, for me anyway, is the biggest pitfall of the Matebook. On a solid surface it works, and is fairly decent. But as soon as you place it on an uneven surface like your lap you start to notice problems with stability and even usability.
I often experience the tablet falling backward or forward when typing on my lap. While typing on your lap it feels fairly wobbly. I also have a problem with the touch pad when the keyboard is raised or not completely flush with the surface it is laying on. In those instances the touchpad seems to think it is being clicked and will not release until the keyboard is flush again.
The tablet aside from that has great performance and I absolutely love the form factor. That keyboard though is not what I was hoping for.
