After using it, I thought the battery life was too short… Then, the battery failed after half a year of purchase. You can also confirm the same phenomenon in Amazon reviews.
The warranty is also short, only 4 months, so there is nothing I can do about it.
Sr. GadgetOriginally, a warranty of at least one year, or at least six months, is standard, so 4 months is a bit…
The battery life was originally too poor, so there is a possibility of initial failure, but personally, I I definitely do not recommend purchasing it.
This time, I would like to tell you about the actual feeling of using the “Fintie Bluetooth Keyboard Cover” for the Amazon “Fire HD 10” 11th generation that I reviewed previously.
If you haven’t read the previous article, please check here↓

This keyboard cover is a convenient tool that can easily change the way you use your tablet to something like a laptop. Of course, it has its pros and cons, but if the usage is a good fit and you can use it effectively, you can do light work such as typing, which you couldn’t do with just a tablet, with some comfort.
So, I will summarize the key points based on my actual experience and tell you who I recommend it to.

- You can easily use the 『Fire HD 10』 like a laptop
- Too heavy
- No trackpad
- Narrow range of motion
- Keyboard is difficult to use
- Charging is troublesome
- Battery life is too short

Actual Feeling of Use
It’s really heavy

This keyboard cover is really heavy.
The published weight of the tablet body is 465g, while the published weight of this keyboard cover is 634g, which is surprisingly heavier than the body. When attached to the body, the total weight exceeds 1kg.
As you can see in the picture above, when I actually measured it, it was 1121.4g≒about 1.1kg including the tablet body.
Furthermore, it becomes thicker than other covers due to the keyboard, making it difficult to carry.
It completely negates the portability, which is one of the good things about the 『Fire HD 10』…
The keyboard is difficult to use

The reason for the difficulty of using this keyboard is that it is the same size as the tablet, so it is overall small. Although it is unavoidable to make the keyboard the same size as the tablet in order to function as a cover, you cannot type like a normal laptop keyboard.
Sr. GadgetI often pressed two keys at the same time or made typos…
Also, as you can see in the picture above, the Enter key is too small. There is no keyboard that is more difficult to use than one with a difficult-to-press Enter key.
Switching between Japanese and English input is also done in a unique way, so it takes some getting used to.
There is no trackpad, so you often have to touch the tablet to operate it, and I often ended up using the tablet body directly without using the keyboard.
Narrow range of motion

The picture above shows the keyboard cover attached to the maximum.
The range of motion is quite narrow, and your neck gets tired when using it. If the inclination could be adjusted a little more, the usability would be greatly improved, but unfortunately…
The charge doesn’t last at all
This keyboard cover is said to be usable for up to 400 hours on a single charge, but it doesn’t last that long. In reality, it lasts about half the tablet’s operating time. It’s a level that makes you suspect initial failure.

It’s mediocre as both a keyboard and a case
Certainly, if you use this keyboard cover, the feeling of using it for input operations will be closer to that of a PC. However, it has too many drawbacks for everyday use. It might be better to buy a cheap laptop instead.
As a case, it unnecessarily widens due to the keyboard, and frankly, it’s mediocre as both a keyboard and a case.
It is recommended for people who mainly use the tablet and occasionally need to type, but do not have high expectations.
