Bluetooth Keyboard issue

Hi !
So i have a problem with my bluetooth Keyboard and my Pixel C. I've joined a picture of the keyboard, just in case... So it's a Franch keboard (but I don't think it's important), and each time I press Q, S, D, W, X, C or Space key, it prints the character 4 times (eg WWWWhat the hecccck !?)
The keyboard works fine with all my others devices (Shield K1, Shield TV, Galaxy Edge S7, PS3 and 4) so I suppose the problem is related to the Pixel C, but I can't figure out what's wrong.

Do you have any idea ?

Thank you for your time, and have a nice day ;)

Re: Bluetooth Keyboard issue

Welcome to Android Central! Interesting that almost all of those affected keys also have a separate Fn. What happens when you hold Fn down along with any of the keys? Does it also repeat, or just type a single character?

Sorry, but I'm not sure what you can do about that. Some Bluetooth keyboards just don't work well with some devices. I had a Targus keyboard at one point that would constantly go into some kind of sleep mode after about 5-10 seconds of inactivity. If I started typing again, there would be a lag of about a second, then the letters I typed would spill out onto the screen. For a fast typist, this can be pretty disorienting, so I ditched that keyboard.

It's allright, thank you for your time =)
Changing the keyboard is not a real problem, but I can't afford to buy the official one, and I don't want to buy one with the same incompatibility with the Pixel C. I'll do some research and tell post here if I find a good one ;)

Re: Bluetooth Keyboard issue

I do not agree one bit the Google Pixel Keyboard work as designed. It makes the C a great unit.

It's handy as a stand, but I could have got one of those cheaper. Can't do any serious work with it as for every 3 sentences I type I have at least 8 double spaces between words and a couple of double letters.

Not having that, or any issue here.

I agree, the Keyboard works "for me" fine.

So I've bought a Logitech K380 and everything works flawlessly for me ! And one of the advantages of the K380 is that you can peer the keyboard up to 3 devices and switch between them just by pressing a key, it's really conveniant ;)

Thank you for your answers !
