Be productive on the go with the laptop-like experience of the Travel Keyboard. Use the Travel Keyboard on your tablet when you're ready to work or fold it on top of your tablet to protect the screen from scratches in transit. Type comfortably on full-sized and well-spaced chiclet style keys. Whether you're in a dim hallway or bright room, backlit keys will keep you productive regardless of the lighting. A high-precision, gesture touch pad makes it easy to make selections on screen and to move from one application to the next.

The Dell Latitude 5285 Travel Keyboard Transitions seamlessly between tablet and laptop modes. The thin and lightweight Dell Latitude 5285 Travel Keyboard and the Active Stylus is sold separately from the Dell Latitude 5285 Tablet.
