Review: Perfect - Perfect
Review: Typecasting Isn't Always A Bad Thing - I bought a new Surface Pro 8 and of course needed to buy a keyboard...as it was an Xmas gift to myself and no one had said anything about a naughty step I used the 10% Black Friday discount from Curry's Online to cover most of the cost of the cover that includes a finger print scanner (use that to great effect on my Samsung Smartphone so assumed the same thinking could be deployed) Everything works fine - though I've yet to utilise the finger print option as the Surface Pro does so much based on facial recognition, and who doesn't prefer a facial to a finger? My main moan is, as always, over the cost of this essential device which is an add-on to the tablet itself...captive audience or what...

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Microsoft store in Oxford Street London has closed.
*by P***T on 10 July 2025*

My old one was only 18 months old. No apparent damage but just stopped working. I will see how long this one lasts. Quite dissatisified with Microsoft at the moment as they closed their shop in Oxford Street London with no apparent alternative.
