The keyboard works great, no need to connect and reconnect. And you can fold it back for use without the keyboard, especially when in portrait mode. The build is solid. Magnets secure it to the ipad’s front and back, and it feels as sturdy as a small laptop. The keyboard is smaller than my Magic Keyboard but it takes no time at all to get used to this one. Keys aren’t as responsive but you get used to that too if you’re a good old school “typist” like me.
I don’t know how Apple made this thing so thin but sturdy. Also love that the outside of the case is not slick or slippery. Feels velvety (not tacky) and secure in the hands or on a surface when folded closed. The only con you might see is the aluminum edges on 3 sides are not covered. But that leaves one long edge open for charging my pencil.
I still feel the cost is high and I probably wouldn’t have considered this purchase if there were cheaper cases available in 2 days. But I’m actually glad I had to. And it will be great for travel. In the meantime I may never buy a cheaper everyday case for normal use. I like this one too much!
It significantly enhances the experience of using an iPad. I've have iPads for years before this, and I used the iPad Pro with the Pencil for several months before receiving the keyboard, and it was honestly not useful beyond streaming videos and FaceTiming before I got the keyboard. The addition of this keyboard made chats, emails, notes, reminders, etc actually pleasant to use on the iPad. For one, the hardware keyboard is far faster and lower effort to type passwords. chats, and search terms on, and it also has the advantage of not needing to load up a software keyboard that fills half the screen in landscape. It's also acts as a useful stand when laying it on a table, and a counterweight when laying down on a couch or on the bed. It also does not prevent portrait mode usage, as it will fold away behind the screen and the keys will not register any presses when that occurs.
That being said, it is still very expensive. I bought this on sale, so the value is there for me. At full price, it's hard to swallow, but it really is so key for the experience. I considered the Magic Keyboard Folio too, but that doesn't fold backwards and it's significantly more expensive (and has fewer sales). This keyboard does have the relative disadvantage of having only two angles, but it's been sufficient during daily usage.
Also, I'd like to note that the key action is quite soft versus full size/laptop keyboards, but it's not a deal breaker for me, and it still significantly adds to the experience. It's far more convenient than needing to pull out a separate bluetooth keyboard. Having this always available and attached to the iPad is a key part of the value proposition versus other keyboards, and it's easy to detach if needed.
I've been super happy with it. It isn't the nicest keyboard, feels a little muddy, but it does work and isn't terrible. It provides good protection on both sides of the tablet. The magnets hold it well, but aren't so much that is a pain to remove.
It is a little heavy, so if I'm just reading or messing about, I'll take it off the iPad, but when I'm done it reattaches super easy. No noticeable impact on battery either. I really think it is the best option, hopefully Apple doesn't change the size of their new tablets.
