Apple Ipad Air 2020 Logitech Keyboard

If you have an Apple chip laptop (I own a MacBook Air M1 2020), and you use an external screen (yes, a 2012 Apple Thunderbolt 27 monitor), then this keyboard is a must. I will never get used to the more compact keyboards without the numeric keypad and extra buttons, but most importantly this keyboard has a magic fingerprint sensor identical to the one on your laptop, so you can close the laptop-that-never-heats-up and enjoy all the perks of logins, password and authorizations using the fingerprint sensor. At $179 it is on the pricy side, but I value not needing a cable and the sensor, so overall very much worth it.

I considered the Apple Keyboard's for my new iPad Air 4th generation. I have had both brands before for earlier iPad's. This Logitech keyboard is in the same league as the Apple Smart Keyboard Folio (similar configuration), but has three very important features that are lacking on the Apple keyboard. 1. Backlit keys. 2. Top row of short-cut function keys. 3. Trackpad. So, for less money, you can have a keyboard with much more functionality.

I couldn't be happier with this logitech case that I bought for my brand new ninth generation iPad. I've been using a MacBook Air for over eight years (still runs great!), but wanted an iPad because it's even smaller and lighter and more fun to use. When I do need a keyboard with it, however, this keyboard case emulates the keyboard on my MacBook Air perfectly, especially with the built-in trackpad. It just works great. Couldn't be more pleased.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am reviewing this in comparison to the Apple Magic Keyboard which I already had. I like that case protects the corners and you don’t have to take it out of the main casing to use the iPad without the keyboard. The keyboard easy detaches. The main negative to the Apple keyboard is you have to have the kickstand out to use it like a laptop which is harder to do if you have it on your lap vs a table top. The Apple one uses tension. However, the Apple one cannot go 360 degrees like the Logitech can. Both feel equal quality and keyboards are comfortable. I would say, if you want versatility and durability, then the Logitech wins out. If you are looking to use the iPad as more of a laptop, then the Apple magic keyboard takes it.

I returned the Logitech Combo Touch in favor of the Apple Magic keyboard. I love using the iPad Caseless which this gives me the ability to do. I prefer typing on the Logitech but when the keyboard is detached, I find it too heavy to use one handed.

I purchased this keyboard for my new iPad Air 5. Nice tight fit. I wish the Apple Pencil was more secure when the iPad was detached from the keyboard.

I bought this so I could close my MacBook Pro (2020) and work with a Logitech keyboard and mouse on my curved Samsun screen. It works really well and projects my computer in 4K. It is easy to setup and worth the investment. No lag that I can sense doing digital marketing.

We were deciding between the Logitech vs the Apple keyboard. Liked the idea of the fingerprint sensor on the apple but I’m glad we chose the Logitech for it’s backlighting, nice key action and overall quality feel.

The keyboard that they made for the pro iPad I would have bought it if they would have made one for the iPad air 3,it would have been easy to do,I would have pay more.

I switched from the 2020 iPad Air 4 to the 2021 iPad Mini 6. It is much lighter and more wielding for casual use. For casual news/book readers, safari goers, and video watchers, this is a much better iPad. I only wish the screen could get brighter.
