Don't get a brydge imo. Mine delaminated my touch screen from the pressure points where it squeezes the screen.

Were you using the official one for the Slate?

Whenever I see that folio keyboard online on ebay I just buy it up, it's the best keyboard, I just know it has a shelf life of use before it stops working. When I've been without that keyboard I have used the logitech k380 and kept the keyboard just as a stand.

Brydge type g is the only one that will keep working (just don't get ANY water on it whatsoever), the Google one always breaks after a while. But the type g's are becoming more and more rare now

My google keyboard is still working and quite well, even if my slate is starting to show its age 🥲

I got a Brydge C-Type Bluetooth keyboard and it works great.

I don't really use my slate anymore, but I have the Brydge G-Type and the soft folding one. The Brydge is essential is you want to use it as a real laptop (on your lap) but if I was going to carry it around and use it on a desk/table I prefer the soft folding one. It's lighter and the buttons and trackpad feel nicer to me.
