Attaches to the back of the iPad with a magnet

I was looking for a keyboard that would work well with the 4th gen iPad Air and came across this one. It is very easy to connect and set up. It works just as well as any keyboard and gets the job done. However, I'm not sure if I want to use it long or often. It attaches magnetically to the front or back of your iPad if you have a Smart Folio. I didn't see it in the feature list so it might be a coincidence. The back of the keyboard is metal. It doesn't slide perfectly like smart folios and other accessories, so you have to be very careful when attaching it if you want to put it on and take it off, or it will sit very awkwardly on the front or back of your iPad. The only problem I have is that I still have to be seated at my desk to type really comfortably. It's not at all a replacement for those keyboards that double as iPad cases, and I didn't feel much more comfortable sitting on the couch recommending it to people for that purpose. If I have to type a lot and only want to use my iPad, then I definitely reach for this keyboard. Otherwise, the fact that it's just another accessory to carry around and the fact that it's no different than any other Bluetooth keyboard, save perhaps for its size and what it's marketed for, makes the difference , it for me less convenient. Build quality is only decent too. It's not falling apart or anything, but it's also not the kind of product that will stand up to long-term daily use, especially if you're mobile.

Pros
  • Accessories for tablets
Cons
  • There are more interesting options.
