Review on πŸ’‘ Optimized for iPad Air (iPad5): Kensington KeyFolio Exact Plus Backlit Bluetooth Keyboard (K97095US) by Doug Darling

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Extremely poor quality keyboard, skip this one!

Well I thought it was a quality product with all the reviews and the Kensington name. NO! The magnetic screen tilt position and the non-magnetic keyboard position can only be used when they are on a fixed platform. I like sitting on the couch, putting the iPad on my knees and typing, surfing. So I think (because of Kensington's video) the magnet will hold. Lying on a sun lounger or leaning quite far back doesn't work. The keyboard is cheap! They can't do what I call the lazy/quiet type (keystrokes skewed and quiet). You have to hit them at right angles and with extra power. I have since replaced it with a cheaper tome (different brand) and its keyboard is 100% better. And there's no "simple" LED color option as there is on the Mac. My cheaper has! The iPad snaps in and out of the holder snugly and securely. Don't risk buying cheaper "open box" options. They don't seem to be quality checked. My keyboard was bent and a key was broken. (My 2 cents) If you think price means "better," think again.

Pros
