Surface Pro and Pro 4 Type Cover

[Windows Central Question]

Is The New Surface Pro Compatible With The Surface Pro 4 Type Cover ?

I already own one and if I'm going to be paying more due to the new surface pen not coming in with the device , I would like to save on the type cover. And it doesn't seem like the new type cover is that different than the old one except the alcantara suede.

I read in a Windows Central article that SP4 type covers are indeed compatible with the new Surface Pro.
