Is the fitting which plugs into the phone/tablet in USB or MICRO USB? I need micro input for Galaxy 3 Tab 8". Thanks!

Hi Claudette, it is a micro USB outlet that goes into the phone (the small pointy thing at the top) while there is a raft of options like USB and so on at the bottom end. It really is a nice gadget but a note to the wise, if you have a hard case on your phone, you might have to take it off before you can get it to work for you! At least that was my experience... I hope this helps?

Micro USB. I use it with my note 8.0 works. Great too! I'm not a seller I bought this item also.

It is the micro USB the same as the galaxy S3. I would expect it would fit your Galaxy 3 tab 8 also.

You have to use the cable that came with it to plug it into the tablet. I don't have a USB on my tablet, but the tablet came with an adapter to change the mini usb to a regular one.

No there is not a regular USB port on the tablet. The only way I know to do that is to purchase a converter to use with the micro USB slot offering the regular USB port. The converters sell pretty inexpensively and are useful for other things too...

No, the cord portion and proprietary plug does not fit the Tab 3 7.0 because the Tab 3 7.0 has a standard micro usb port the same as most android phones. You could however use the power brick and a usb to micro usb cord to charge the Tab.

Look at the type of connector ( the end of it) For my tablet it worked great. I have a smaller tablet. Very pleased with it.

Sorry, I don't know. However, I have a 7 inch tablet with a mini connector or port (female). The keyboard I bought has a usb male. I use this connector to connect the two- the keyboard's usb male to the connector's usb female, and the mini male of the connector into the tablet's mini female,. It works fine. One thing to remember, though, is the difference between the mini and the micro. Make sure your port is the mini and not the micro. (Maybe you already know this, but I was totally confused. If you don't know the difference, see http://gizmodo.com/5030810/giz-explains-an-illustrated-guide-to-every-stupid-cable-you-need.)

The micro USB port is for powering/charging. If you plug in an external hard drive (I tried this with a friend's) it won't work unless you have one that's at least the 2.1 amp variety (a tablet usually requires at least 2.1 amps to charge). In this case, you may think it's not working but most of the current is powering the external hard drive so there isn't enough to actually charge your phone. I found that I had to plug the charger to the device 1st, then the device to the phone to get it to power/charge.

There are 2 micro USB ports (one works for memory/thumb/flash drive, and both work for mice/keyboards and power out). There is a micro HDMI port (standard) that will mirror exactly what is on the tablet to a TV (but with a 13.3" screen, that won;t get used much, like it does on my phone), and there is a microSD slot. All ports are uncovered. There is also a charging jack and a 1/8" audio jack.

Hi Mary... I think it will work because the Galaxy Tab has a USB port, which is how the keyboard would attach to any compatible device. The keyboard has a tiny transmitter that fits into the USB port of the Galaxy Tab 3. But other people disagree with me and think that the USB port on the Galaxy is only used for charging the Tablet. Amazon says that to find out the answer definitively, one of us needs to call or email Samsung or a Samsung salesperson. Mary, I think you should call Samsung and find out for sure, and then buy that great keyboard! Sorry I couldn't help out more.... If you do buy it, Amazon is selling it new and free shipping for $54.00. Good Luck, Mary! - andrew Hi Mary...

No galaxy tab 3 devices use micro USB to charge the device, this charger uses a Samsung 30 pin propietory connector

It fits in the regular USB port. Not mini or micro. I have it the front USB port on my desktop.

It has a large usb connection to the keyboard. If you have a tablet that has a mini usb connection, let the seller know.

I think Martin is correct, and that the Tab 3 uses a standard micro USB connection. I found a review on the Tab 3 that says "Hey, at least they got rid of those proprietary connectors." ... and based on the picture I saw, it is definitely no longer using this 30-pin connector.

I don't know about the large Tab 3, however it would NOT work with my 8 inch Tab 3, as my 8 inch uses a standard microUSB charger, not the 30 pin.

Only the Note 3 uses the USB 3.0 and the tablets still use the microUSB connector. I suspect the galaxy tab 3 tablet has a resident video app too.
