Tab s8 Ultra Keyboard Case not recognising double leters (see what I mean "letters")

BenAboutUltra — Fri, 13 May 2022 21:09:46 GMT

Hi everyone,

I bought my Tab s8 ultra about two months ago. And the keyboard case finaly arrived yesterday. Looks great, works great, except for one huge problem. When i am typing words with double letters, most of the time i wont recognise the second press. This makes serious typing soooo anoying and means I make literlly hundreds of typos in every document I write!!

This is absolutely unacceptable for a premium product with the word ULTRA in the name. Its supposed to be the best of the best! The keyboard is stupidly expensive, absolutley no excuse for this at all.

Is a fix anyone is aware of? Or is a software fix coming soon? If there isn't I may have to return to my old iPad pro with keyboard. As it is it in unusable for serious typing work. Not a pro product at all! I don't want to get rid of it, I am prefer Samsung to Aple any day. But I need reliable keyboard!

Any help?

I have the same issue... it's AWFUL and makes doing any work twice as long to complete. Did you get any answers for this issue? Would love to get it fixed!

Mine just arrived today and the Shift + @ button show " instead of @. I then tried pressing shift + " and it shows the symbol @.

Have the same issue. I switched on the on-screen keyboard, but there is - not a surprise - not any ALT GR option. Additionally, there is the issue with FN too. the key cannot be locked. The default is the FN key, if you need the special function such as background light, you need to hit FN in parallel - do you have this issue too? Super curious if Samsung will break the silence and offer a driver for the "physical keyboard"

Same issue here. Double letters AND the Backspace key. Pressing it more than once it doesn't react properly. Anoying. Really.

I know how to fix this, Go to Settings/Accessibility/Interaction and dexterity/ and disable "Bounce keys".

And you can type double letters again.

It works for me.
