I was willing to make a lot of compromises when I ordered this case, but I needed it because I use the keyboard a lot. I received it today and am happy to report that I have no issues to report. I don't usually like these latches in cases; They usually feel cheap, but this one is well designed and avoids that feeling. There is a groove on the underside of the latch area next to the rotating part which is probably the key. The iPad slides into a tiny grove and you just click on the top 2 corners. With the iPad installed, the screen and device almost look as one, and I appreciate that. The keys look great and have good travel. I'm used to my MacBooks being horribly flat on keystrokes, so this keyboard is about 10x better than my MacBook. The LED options are great if that's what you're into. I keep mine on blue at low brightness and the color looks nice and evenly distributed. Another surprise for me was how much I love having all the hot keys for iOS. Ability to customize music, brightness, volume and home button, lock screen, search and anything really useful. I guess it will take a while before the hinge can be trusted over the long term. So far it feels really strong and seems to be doing its job as advertised. I hope he perseveres and keeps working as well as he is now. The keyboard case adds bulk and weight, but if you didn't know that then...you already did. I am happy with my purchase and highly recommend it. (I'll update my review if anything comes up in the future) - Edit The USB-C cutout on the iPad is EXACTLY the size needed for the USB-C cable that comes with the iPad. I'm used to using a different USB-C cable and the one I'm using doesn't fit in the smaller cutout. It's just something to know. The right shift key is about half the size, apparently for reasons of space. This is why I accidentally hit the up arrow instead of switching a lot. I'll get used to it, but it's worth noting.
