Love at first sight: A Bluetooth keyboard I wish they had for Windows Phone!!!!

[nohra]

Found this beauty while searching on Amazon for Lumia 920 cases that will also stand the phone up. Not sure how this got in there considering it even states it's for Samsung Galaxy S3. But this is EXACTLY what I want for my 920. Something I set the phone on and type and not have half the screen get taken up by the virtual keyboard that doesn't even have arrow keys. Yes, I know how to move the cursor around, but arrow keys on the keyboard would be so much quicker and easier.

For all those out there who, like me, want a physical keyboard for your Lumia, set your mouth on <drool> mode. :evil:

Is it perfect? No, of course not. It's small, the keys are small, but it would sure be nice to have some options beyond JUST having the standard virtual keyboard and that's it!

I had one of those on the iPhone 4S I used to carry for work and they're not the greatest. The keys are very small, the layout is vastly different than what is usually found on sliding keyboards and there isn't any way to map the keys. The biggest drawback is that the assembly mutes the external speaker. I'm sure there have been some design changes since I had mine, but looking at the picture you posted, the keys look very out of place for a mobile keyboard.

if they ever make one that works with windows phone 10, and if windows phone 10 supports
bluetooth keyboards.

maybe, i would think about getting one.

Windows 10 mobile does support Bluetooth keyboards. People have been using them already

are there any that come in a case form factor, that might work with the 950 or 950xl?

still haven't seen any third parties cases with keyboards for 950 yet... now that it's out.

it's pretty niche, so it doesn't seem like there would be one, maybe there is one that is similar size that would work?

As someone else stayed, W10 Mobile already supports Bluetooth keyboards. WP 8.1 had keyboard support... eventually.

To the OP: I know this isn't exactly what you are looking for, but you could get one of those keyboards with the slot for your phone above the keys. Logitech makes one that looks pretty good.
