In Android, you could use InputDevice.

InputDevice: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/InputDevice

You could try the code below:

int[] devicesIds = InputDevice.GetDeviceIds();
        foreach (var item in devicesIds)
        {
            //Check the device you want
            InputDevice device = InputDevice.GetDevice(item);
            //device.getName must to have virtual
            var s = device.Name;
            var b = device.KeyboardType;
        }

You could use DependencyService to call this in Xamarin.Forms.
