No to my knowledge this is not a blue tooth capable keyboard as I just wanted a wireless one. I believe they do have others that are blue tooth capable. I hope this helps.

Some of the "Android" buttons (menu/back/home/search) probably will not work but since Surface has bluetooth you should be able to use the keyboard and even the mouse/cursor control

It certainly should. You should Search for "Surface, Bluetooth" and you'll find MS websites that detail how to pair a Surface with a Bluetooth keyboard like this one. I love the keyboard.

Yes, the Surface RT has Bluetooth 4.0 built in so you will be able to connect seamlessly. It will fill the bill but if you haven't read my previous GMYLE comments they bear repeating; the keys are mechanical and offer the feel that is familiar to laptop users but they will pop off if you are not careful, I recommend when not in use, keeping it in a pouch/bag/ even a gallon zip close bag will work, just to keep the keys from snagging on something. Once a key comes off there is no easy fix because the attaching plastic parts are very small and easily lost or broken.

This keyboard is compatible with any Bluetooth 3.0 compatible devices. Please check your Bluetooth Specifications on your device to be sure.

The bottom of the keyboard says it's for tablets and the iPad. I tried it with my MacBook and even though the batteries were relatively fresh, the MacBook and keyboard never could seem to connect via Bluetooth.

It acts like a Bluetooth keyboard and sends page up / page down keystrokes. You can try those keys on an actual Bluetooth keyboard, and if they work for your app, then this will work. Note you can't use this device along with either another Bluetooth keyboard or the onscreen keyboard.

This keyboard should be recognized as a standard Bluetooth keyboard by your tablet. However since your tablet is a Windows tablet some of the function keys might not work as expected since they were designed with Android devices in mind.

No it's not a Bluetooth based keyboard. It is designed to be used with the Asus transformer pad only. No it does not use power heavily, it is actually an extra power source for the tablet.

Whatever BlueMall, it will work. I bought for an ipad and it works for my sisters acer tablet.. explain that. All it needs is bluetooth on the device you want to connect to the keyboard

The Keyboard is wireless. Just move the slider in the lower right corner over to "on" and give it a moment to sync with the tablet. That's the beauty of bluetooth. Actually, the answer from nrs83 below is more complete than mine. Good job, nrs83.

Well I Have the same tablet and the same keyboard with no problems. Make sure to turn on the bluetooth and adjust it with the right connection. I'm sure it will work and you won't be disappointed.Good luck!

I'm not sure because I didn't get no use for it being my tablet couldn't connect to any keyboard. I found that out after my purchase was made. I'm sorry that I cannot help any I would say try it out.

Bluetooth is a spec (802.15, just like WiFi is 802.11), so anything that claims to be bluetooth must adhere to the spec. Things that require a proprietary dongle usually advertise as 'wireless'.Anyway, I have the keyboard; and I can confirm that it works with standard bluetooth - I've used it on my tablet, phone and computer.

I am using my keyboard with my iPad 2 and it works great. I would think it would work with any tablet with a bluetooth connection.I tried it with my laptop using a bluetooth adapter and it worked.

It works with my tablet. And it's windows 8. I've seen where Bluetooth works for phones on YouTube. I would say yes. This keyboard is great. Good feel, good size. Try it out.

I have no idea, and it does use bluetooth for the keyboard connection. But I only used it a couple times.
