BlackBerry-like Keyboard Covers for Samsung Galaxy Note5 and S6 edge+ official

Samsung at the Galaxy Unpacked event introduced the Galaxy Note5 and Galaxy S6 edge+.  The company alongside the new phablets unveiled BlackBerry-like keyboard cover.  When this keyboard-case is attached to the phone it transforms it into a portrait QWERTY smartphone.

Samsung says that you will be able to type more accurately and with greater speed with the QWETY keyboard. It sports a thin design and is compact so you can carry it easily and attach it when required. This also protects the back of the phone against damage such as scratches, knocks and drops. 

The keyboard snaps on top of the phone's display. After it is attached, the phone recognizes the keyboard cover and adjusts the UI accordingly, making only the top half of the screen exposed. The Key presses are sensed by the screen automatically due to the capacitive technology, so it does not require Bluetooth pairing or batteries to run. 

They come in Black, Silver and Gold flavors, costs $80 and are expected to be available next month. This is an attempt by Samsung to tap consumers who still prefer physical QWERTY keyboards just below the screen.
