Fantastic keyboard-adding photos…and an update

Update #2: there was a problem with the micro USB charging port. I contacted Chesonaus and they immediately sent out a replacement. They are super-responsive and stand behind their keyboard.After using the keyboard for a few months now, I still love it.One suggestion: if you use your keyboard all day, as I do, keeping it plugged in will keep you charged up while working and then it will be charged up if later you’re on the go and will be unplugged. Battery life is good, but that has helped me since I use it all day long.Also: make sure to turn the back-lighting off during the day. I didn’t even think about that and was leaving it on all the time. Now that I turn it off when I don’t need it, and change the level as needed (usually the lowest setting works fine b/c I use it in dark settings), it lasts a lot longer.Update: I found a great use for the keyboard protector: when I need to have the keyboard separate from the case, or when I’m using the keyboard for my phone, I lay the protector on any desk or other hard surface to keep the keyboard secure. It does a perfect job of holding the keyboard in place while typing.Since I don’t really use the keyboard protector otherwise, it works great for that.Pros• easy connection• incredibly long battery life• very protective• I love that I can take the keyboard off and use it in my lap, or to the side of my ipad.• the keyboard also works great with my phone!• it has an apple pencil holder, which my old one did not, and I lost my pencil!• the top row of function keys are a huge convenience. There’s even a delete key. A delete key! On an iPad!• the keyboard is a tad bit small, but not by much, and it has to be that size to fit my 11” iPad Pro.• keyboard feel and function is great.• there’s a lip on the case, as well as small bumpers on each corner of the keyboard, so the the screen doesn’t touch the keyboard when it is closed• very responsive and helpful customer serviceCons• What’s not to like? ;-)• Actually, the only con for me was that this keypad isn’t backlit. I really need that, and Chesona customer support was super-responsive and helpful in getting me one that is backlit. The backlit version is a bit more expensive, but still a great price. And for those who don’t need backlit keys, this is a superb keyboard and case, and an amazingly low price.
