Since Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), allowed the third party keyboards The App Store does not lack any of the big names that conquered their popularity on Android or other alternatives created specifically for iOS with proposals that are sometimes really original, but it seems that all of them are going to find a rather complicated rival with the arrival of the new one. keyboard Microsoft, that we are sure that it will conquer a part of the users of the 6 iPhone Plus and the 6s iPhone Plus, especially. We discover why.
A keyboard designed for large screens
The phablets have an unmatched advantage over conventional smartphones in user comfort simply by screen size, but the truth is that they also have some drawbacks, especially for those with smaller hands, since it is not always easy handle them with one hand, as we usually do with devices 5 inches or less. That is precisely why tools such as the new keyboard of Microsoft they will undoubtedly be welcomed by their owners, who are more every year.
What makes the new keyboard so interesting? Microsoft for users of phablets? Quite simply, making it easy to cover it all and access all the keys with one hand. Typically this has been done simply by reducing the size of the keyboard as a whole and moving it towards one of its sides, and this is actually what the Windows Phone keyboard itself did. In this new version, however, what those from Redmond have done is enable a configuration in which the keys are arranged in three arches in one of the corners.
As you can see, it is an extremely simple idea, but sometimes this is just what it takes to hit the mark. We had already recommended some applications that made it easier to use our phablets and among them was one that did just this, arrange the most used applications in an arch in a corner, but we had not yet seen anyone transfer the concept efficiently to keyboards.
We will have to wait a bit to be able to enjoy it, in any case, since at the moment it is in phase beta, and even more, at first it will be launched only in the App Store, although it will surely end up reaching Google Play. Until then, we remind you that we have at your disposal a selection with some of the most interesting keyboards that can be found already for iOS and Android.
