Are the keyboard keys made of gel or rubber material?

Definitely not rubber as it's not too soft. Feel like same material as typical laptop keys

The black one is plastic. The white one I would assume is the same. A plastic keyboard with an aluminum coating.

Yes to all of your questions. This is very slightly thicker, connects just like the "original," and the top is plastic (keys and trackpad) and rubber (probably rubber coated plastic) everywhere else. The back of the keyboard has a grey fabric that provides some friction to keep the keyboard/Surface from sliding around on a smooth surface.

The base of the keyboard is made of real aluminum. It is not just aluminum finish.

Except the the keyboard, the rest is full metal. Where U put your hands to type is also metal. Hope this answers your question.

It is made out of hard plastic like a regular keyboard. It is not like the fuzzy, felt-like Surface keyboard.

They are semi-hard rubber. I can rest mine while I type but prefer not to - personal preference.

Of course rubber.... an electrical keyboard for 30 bucks? Come on now. But it still feels pretty good.

It is a mechanical keyboard. The keys have a good feel, though I ended up putting a dot of epoxy on the F & J home keys to be able to find them by touch, as I couldn't feel the etched dots that were there.

It's a hard black plastic type material. Keys are easy/soft touch much like the ones on my Mac keyboard. I really love the way it feels and works. It has made a huge difference in the utility of the iPad.

I believe it is a plastic molded framework thru which the keyboard is mounted. the framework is painted silver. You see that the back edge of the keyboard mount is still white unpainted plastic.It's a very nice keyboard, I've had no problems or complaints with it.

This keyboard has rubber domes instead of mechanical switches. However it does make a noise when you bottom out a key, but the noise is not too loud.

The keys do not feel squishy. They feel exactly like a laptop keyboard. I have no idea what actuation and travel distances are, but I am quite satisfied with the keyboard. I use it all day long and it works exactly as I would hope.

The keyboard is rubber and the case looks like leather but I think is a special plastic. My kids liked them

It is clear silicone with black and white paint over the keys. The keyboard light is visible around the keys but not through the letters on the keys.

It's Membrane non-mech keys, It's a good keyboard though for being rubber-dome. Might i recommend Tesoro Keyboards if you are looking for a mech, That's what i use now and they have all types of switches.

It is mostly plastic, except the aluminum around the start button and the bottom of the keyboard appears to be metal. Great little computer. I love mine.
