My first tablet, and I bought this case/keyboard, so sorry if this is a dumb question. When closing the case, won't the keyboard scratch the screen?

We put a screen protector on the screen. Plus the keyboard doesn't touch the screen unless you mash the case. We've had the case since nov. and haven't had any scratches yet.

Depends on how rough you plan on being with the tablet. There is a certain amount of space between the keys and the screen when closed. This is because the tablet is slightly recessed in the holder. With normal use I haven't had any problems but I also purchased the plastic film screen protector on my Nexus7 for added safety. If you plan on jamming it say into a brief case or purse then I'm sure with enough force you could get the keys to contact the screen. Been using this case for 3 months with a problem so far.

No, it will not due to the way the case holds the tablet and keyboard. They are slightly spaced apart.

It doesn't scratch. They are some kind of plastic and slightly rounded. I am not very gentle with this and have had no issues whatsoever with the screen being damaged.

The computer itself has a sturdy case especially if the key board is attached. The extra cover should help reduce scratching. Drop any computer just right (especially on corners) and it can shatter the glass etc. To be honest, I have never used my case. However, I have taken my 2 in 1 on several trips without any scratches or other damage.

There is a very good question. The keyboard/cover had many bad reviews. It warps. I did not purchase the keyboard/cover with the tablet.

I have experienced that problem after 10 days of using the keyboard. Fortunately they kept the guarantee, I recieved the new keyboard. the thing is the tab cracked without any single reason. This is in my opinion truly the matter of faulty material. The case shall also potect iPad when falling down without being damaged itself- at least not in this way.

Not an exprert I'm sure it will still get scratched. I have this with a screen protect on my iPad. I love this case and keyboard.

Good question. I don't think so, it has four rubber bumpers on the corners that contact the screen before the keyboard does. Will the bumpers leave a mark? I would say yes, but in the long run, and if you leave your screen dirty. If you excerpt too much pressure on the keyboard, it will surely contact the screen and it will eventually scratch it. I'm talking here with my experience with laptops.

No it dose not scratch the screen. A screen protector will only diminish any accuracy from any stylus you choose.

I only purchased the tablet and case, but not the keyboard. As far as I know, the case is only intended for the tablet itself.

I love mine!!! The keys do not touch the screen at all. There is plenty of space between the keys and screen....The padding is great. Plus I use a screen protector. KATHY

This does not have a snap closure. I have yet to have scratches on my screen but I do have a screen protector on it as well as don't travel with it in my bag often to put it to the true test. There have been a few features that I have really liked about this product. 1. The keyboard is not permanently attached; 2. the clips on the corner of the tablet offer great stability without limiting visibility and 3. being bluetooth i don't have to worry about my tablet being hooked into the keyboard anytime I want to use it. Hope this was helpful and if you do choose to go with this product, I hope you enjoy it. This does not have a snap closure.

It's not really a case, more of a stand. The tablet locks into it screen-side down only. So if you want to use it as just a tablet, like you have to with most games, then yes, you need to set the keyboard aside.

I bought this for my wife(good deal). she does not use it as much as I do on my tablet however it doesn't appear to be a concern. good luck. nice cover.

Yes, the case closes with the keyboard attached. I hasn't scratched the Surface and I don't believe it will. I love the soft leather and the portability of it. I have had the case two months and have only had to charge the keyboard once. I'm very happy with it.

I have not had any problems with that. Soft keys and are a hair above the screen when closed. You will like it I sure do.

It does not touch or harm the screen in any way. Pretty decent little keyboard works very well.

No it will not damage neither will it leave a residue. I left mind on for about a month. Finally decided I did not like the feel of it. So my tablet do not have a cover on it. The surface is durable
