Review on πŸ’» Brydge 7.9 Keyboard for iPad Mini 4th and 5th Gen, Aluminum, Wireless, Rotating Hinges, 180 Degree Viewing - Silver by Mark Clark

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Didn't even last a year - Keyboards

Less than a year later, the hinges started damaging the screen of my mini iPad. I untied them but they started falling apart within a month. After limping around hoping to get it working, I ended up having to throw it away and order another keyboard from a different manufacturer. What I liked were the raised keys, long spacebar, and light weight. I didn't like that they put one of the keys in a different place (apostrophe and quotes) which drove me crazy. Initially, the Bluetooth connection was slow and intermittently failed. Battery life was ok. This was my second attempt at a Brydge keyboard, but I won't do it again.

Pros
  • BLUETOOTH 4.2 KEYBOARD: Brydge 7.9 is the ultimate wireless Bluetooth 4.2 mini keyboard for iPad mini (2019) 5 and iPad mini 4. A full iPad mini keyboard with dedicated iOS function keys gives you a iPad functionality and laptop performance while maintaining the flexibility of a tablet. Please note that this is a keyboard only. The tray is not included.
Cons
  • boring packaging
