as described, pretty, works sitting on a desktop but clumsy otherwise

I upgraded from my 10.9 iPad with the apple keyboard. to an 11 inch gen 3 iPad Pro. I was looking for a keyboard and case that would be similar in character.This case and keyboard looks nice and is certainly as described if set up on a hard flat surface and you do not intend to pick it up to move it. The keyboard woks nicely though the keys have a longer throw than I am used to so some letters do not get triggered. connects readily to the iPad and otherwise works just fine. What the video does not show is just how clumsy this combination is when you attempt to lift it u without folding it, or try and use it on your lap. The backing part goes in one direction the keyboard falls on the floor. and requires 2 hands to move it around.This item is presented as being for apple iPad but has a standard USB-mini port when the iPads of course have the lightening or now thunderbolt (USB-C) ports requiring multiple chargers or many tailed charger cords.Overall not well thought out. . I likely will be replacing this soon.07/12/2021 I did replace this board with a much more functional system

Pros
  • Keyboard layout is similar to a traditional keyboard, making it easy to type
Cons
  • Battery life significantly shorter than advertised
