A good case that's missing a few moments

I've had this keyboard case for a little over 3 weeks now. Here's my list of pros and cons: Pros: 1. Inexpensive. Case for less than $40 that includes a Bluetooth keyboard and a TPU case for the iPad 11-inch 2. The keyboard is magnetic so you can move it to adjust for a comfortable typing condition. 3. The battery life in the keyboard is quite long, I've been using it for over 3 weeks and it's still working on the first charge I did. The keyboard lacks rubber feet to protect the iPad from the hard plastic edges of the keyboard. I ended up buying some small furniture felts. to attach to the keyboard and avoid problems. I feel like the manufacturer could add something like this without being too expensive. 2. The magnets in the keyboard won't hold it in place when the case is closed, so the keyboard will slide out of the case while in a pocket or holding a case when you go. 3. The TPU case is not detachable If you want to use your iPad as a tablet on your knees, you cannot remove the TPU case from the folio. You must remove (and turn off) the keyboard and then fold the folio to use the tablet as a tablet. I wish they would make the TPU case with a magnet mount or even velcro so it can be detached from the folio sometimes. Removing a pencil from where you left it while traveling is a bit of a hassle, and you have to fumble with the case to get it out. This $40 case is fine. It's not surprising, but for the most part it will do. I feel like the few downsides I've found are more like quality of life improvements that don't really increase the cost of building a case when added on. The keyboard is simple and doesn't have too many gimmicks, just what is needed to make it work properly. It has a good response time and doesn't feel laggy when typing. Overall a good case for the $40 you will be spending.

Pros
  • ✅ DETACHABLE MAGNETIC KEYBOARD: The keyboard case for iPad Air 4 comes with a detachable Bluetooth wireless magnetic keyboard that allows you to switch between a lightweight laptop and an iPad. With a full set of iPadOS keyboard shortcuts, the laptop keyboard is ergonomic and comfortable. The keyboard is separated from the case, when you don't need the keyboard, you can remove it and put it back on the iPad.
Cons
  • Only available in white
