Hello, Jose Feliciano2.

Welcome to Microsoft Community!

After reading what you have posted, I have noticed that you may have some doubts about the features related to the keyboard accessory for Surface Pro 9 devices. Allow me to share the following information with you here:

There are indeed two models of keyboards that can be used with the Surface Pro 9:

First up is the Surface Pro Keyboard, which connects physically:

Similar to Surface Pro Signature Keyboard:

Then you'll also notice the keyboard that can be detached and continue to work, which is modeled as the Surface Pro Flex Keyboard:

These models will adapt and work with the Surface Pro 9. The Surface Pro Flex Keyboard offers wireless connectivity for use and will be a bit more feature-rich than the Surface Pro Keyboard.

If you are in need of a keyboard, you can refer to the above to make your choice.

I hope the information I shared with you can help you.

Best Regards.
