Apple Ipad Pro 2018 Logitech Keyboard

[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.

To me, this is a must-have accessory for your iPad if you want to get actual work done with it. Before this, I had the earlier version of the Folio keyboard, but this new version is so much better. The keyboard is great and makes the typing experience enjoyable. The whole case is very sturdy and you don’t feel like the iPad is going to accidentally fall off. I hear a lot of people complaining about the fact that you cannot fold this case back onto itself to use the iPad vertically, like you could with the Folio. I don’t mind this, because if I do need to draw on it, I can easily detach the iPad and use it vertically, which is a lot lighter anyway. The cursor also works very well. I didn’t think I was going to get used to a dot instead of a pointer, but it’s totally fine. A few nit-picky cons I have are: I wish the angle the iPad tilted backwards was greater, I wish the trackpad height was wider (it’s pretty small compared to MacBooks), and I wish they made a version specifically for the 2018 iPad Pro, because the camera design isn’t the same as the 2020 iPad Pro and it looks a little weird aesthetically with the 2018 version. Overall, I’m happy with this purchase.

After several efforts to make an iPad more than just a browsing and gaming gadget, I dove deeper with the 2018 iPad Pro 11 inch. iOS 13 convinced me that the iPad might be more useful than previously. The iOS makes a big difference, but having a real keyboard to use with it, made the iPAD Pro a home run. I'm very satisfied with this keyboards performance and functionality. The Apple smart keyboard is too limited for my needs (think: emaciated super model) and the big bulky overbuilt keyboards negate the advantages of the iPads diminutive size. I can't speak to it's durability as I've only had it a couple of months. So far so good. I'm actually using the iPad Pro more and more for emails, writing and everyday tasks that I gave up on with my previous iPAD 2 and iPAD Air 2. It is quickly becoming a replacement for my MBP for mobile computing needs. The Logitech Slim Folio Pro, along with an Apple Pencil is a big part of that transition.

The Magic Keyboard is a serious improvement over the original keyboard I purchased for my 2017 iPad Pro, and that was pretty good. But there's really no fair comparison, since the new model is backlit, can charge the Apple Pencil, and appears to be more durable. I like the typing action. Typically, for Apple products, it's pricey, but I feel strongly that I got my money's worth.

I had a 3rd gen iPad Pro 12.9 and used the Logitech keyboard folio, which I really liked. I just bought a 6th gen iPad Pro 12.9 and alas, the keyboard portfolio is not compatible. The bigger keyboard/cover form factor just doesn’t work. I ended up buying the Apple keyboard/folio and it’s a piece of junk. Please make a Logitech keyboard folio available for the 6th gen Pro 12.9

I purchased the Pro Keys Keyboard & Case to pair with my new apple ipad pro 11-inch and couldn't be happier! I am constantly in and out of clients homes completing documents and performing demonstrations. The case allows me to do it all.

Real good performance with my iPad Pro 2018

This is simply the best keyboard for an iPad Pro.

I love the feel of the keys on the keyboard. I love that it gives protection for my iPad Pro and it has a place for my Apple Pencil. I’m in love with this case and all that went into making this whole Zagg Pro Keys & Case Apple iPad Pro 12.9-inch Pro Gen 4.
