[Staples] Staples: Hot! Tzumi Bluetooth Keyboard Folio Case

Price:: $15

Staples is clearing out the Tzumi Bluetooth Keyboard Folio Case. It has universal fit and comes in either 7-8" or 9-10" size.

The keyboard has a metal casing and is removable.

Regular price is $40. It was clearing out at $20 but there is an additional 25% off on all clearance item.

Total comes out to $15 plus tax.

Picked up one of each for my Galaxy Tabs.

Could not find it on the Staples site but it is identical to this one selling on Amazon:

It wouldn't connect to my samsung galaxy tab 4 either, thought it was just my tablet that couldn't see the keyboard. But it works great with my netbook (connected to TV running Kodi)

Dangit, I didn't get the 25% off when I bought this on Saturday (unfortunately, I was distracted by other pricing issues...). Bought for use with an original galaxy tab.

EDIT: Original Galaxy Tab, unsurprisingly is too thick for this as expected. However, if you flip the galaxy tab backwards the case will in fact close.

Works great on the dell venue pro. Just the case is so big and bulky

Cashier dropped them to $10 each at the register last Wed.. nice surprise.
One was an open box and one shift key was fussy.. popped it off and back on... now works great!

With thicker devices ( playbook ) you may not be able to close it with the keyboard in place. Keyboard is attached by magnets ( which are in the case, not the keyboard ) and is a very handy thin keyboard. Win/iOS/Android switching ability just changes some key mappings ( i.e. "select all" shortcut brings up calculator on Android when in iOS mode ). I was hoping it would remember 3 different pairings but no... that'd be asking too much for this deal.

I got the last 10" at Edmonton 118&104th - black ones... most remaining are purple cases with black keyboards.

Agreed. I bought one of these for my aunt's Asus Memo pad 7 - the case IS a little bulky. I like that the keyboard attaches with magnets though, so you can take it out when you don't need it to remove weight/bulk.

Edmonton Oliver Square still has one 10" keyboard in black, a handful of 7" in black, and 10 or so 7" in pink.

Thanks OP, just got back from getting one (typing this on it as the keyboard charges). There were plenty of them at the Eglinton location.

After some pairing difficulty, the keyboard is working with my Dell Venue 8 (Android). Haven't tried it with the iPad Mini. Does the Caps Lock light work on anyone else's keyboard? Mine doesn't seem to work, although I can live with that. Documentation is essentially non-existent with this. Is there a list anywhere of what the changes are in the different modes (android, Win, iOS).
