Logitech keyboard case...will this work?

[Remaxmatt]

I love the keyboard case that Logitech has made for tablets, but I can't find it for a Note 10.1 (2014)

This one here is for the Tab 10.1:

Aside from not having the access hole for the stylus (which I could fashion into it with a dremel), this is the closest I could find to one that would work. Has anyone seen something more suitable?

I've used small keyboards like this. While I can type on them, the keys are quite close together making it difficult to get used to. Bluetooth responsiveness also suffers. If you have small hands (and thin fingers) then perhaps these things can work for you. For me, I gave up!

If you just need a keyboard for use at home, THIS one has decent ratings and comes in black and white. It's larger for sure but can switch between three devices. I think there was a thread on it here somewhere (that's how I heard of it). By the way, I don't own it, so this isn't really a recommendation.

I actually looked at that one too, and was fairly impressed. It's not at home use that I need it for. I sell real estate, and take my Note with me everywhere, it has every contract on it, it's invaluable to me.
Do I actually NEED a keyboard? No, I do just fine swyping away, but if I can spend $100 give or take, and it can increase my productivity by even 1% without creating any additional hindrance, I'll go for it in a heartbeat.

THIS is what I have... it also comes in Blk/Wht. The case itself is very nice. It looks and feels "more" business-like than some others. The outside of the case feels very nice and build quality is very good... YMMV. It's probably a little heavier than the one you were trying to find, but it also affords very good protection due to it's thickness. It comes with a stylus, but on mine the loop was too loose to hold it, so I just cut the loop off. I don't use the stylus anyways. This case affords the tablet to be angled at any angle, and if you place a clip on the back of the case (where it folds) you can use it as a stand to shoot video... its hard to explain so see photo. The only thing is that there are velcro-type feet which grab onto the grey fuzzy material of the cover to allow it to stand at different angles... the feet wears the fuzzy material over time... so far, no problems with this affecting how the tablet stands. Another good thing is that you can still use the tablet while you're charging as you can flip the entire thing over and still stabilize it with the velcro grabbing the edge of the fuzzy material at the top. You have to be careful though as there's not much of the fuzzy stuff to grab so I just make sure it's stable.

I used to think I needed a keyboard, but with them being so small, it became useless because I can't type on it! Plus the lag... sometimes it works really well, and then I type a word and nothing is on the screen! BT lag has not improved for a very long time and trying to type a document really shows this.

Try not to read too much into my negative comments. For you, a small keyboard may work fine... especially if you're more or less filling out forms rather than typing a long Word document. You basically have to try one yourself to judge how it is.

Sorry, no keyboard photos... keyboard is buried in a box somewhere! By the way, I also own the Blk/Wht case (no keyboard) and I had to blacken out around the inside of the camera cutout with a black permanent marker because the flash causes glare and fools the camera. Photos will come out nasty unless you black it out. I use this on my SM-P607T.

I appreciate that, the case does look good!
As for typing, yeah it's just documents that I fill in, not long essays or anything.
I'll check out that case, see how it feels.

The best part is you can always return it to Amazon if you don't like it or have a problem with it. I love Amazon!
