Apple Keyboard For Ipad Air 3Rd Generation

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 bought this to replace the 5 1/2 year old Smart Keyboard for my 3rd generation iPad Pro. I used the old keyboard extensively with the iPad, eventually wearing it out. Given how much I enjoyed using the old keyboard and how long it lasted, it was an easy decision to replace it with essentially the same device. The only difference between the old and new keyboard is the size of the back camera opening, which is larger on this newer version. I also prefer this keyboard over Apple's Magic Keyboard because I can fold it back behind the iPad for reading a book, which the Magic Keyboard doesn't do.

It seems like with every generation of iPad Air Apple takes small steps in the right direction of manufacturing the perfect tablet.

The fourth-generation iPad Air gives you the power of an iPad Pro for less money, making it the best Apple tablet thus far.

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.

My use of an iPad is simply as an internet appliance. My 3rd generation iPad is glacially slow and can no longer be upddated. With Covid-19 I am now reliant on Zoom and Face Time for connecting with friends and meetings. My new iPad is a perfect match for my needs.

This iPad replaces a 2012 3rd generation that I thought was great and still works perfectly, but can't be updated and is slow. The picture on this iPad is astounding, better than the Retina display on my iMac. Is is ultra fast, up to date and syncs perfectly with the iPhone and iMac. Very easy to download everything I wanted from the iMac. I couldn't be happier. My first Apple was 1983 and I'm still a happy and satisfied customer.

This is my third iPad. My 3rd generation iPad Mini is a digital clock and my 5th generation iPad Mini is still working well. Of course, I would recommend any iPad. They are fast, secure, and beautiful. My B&H order was easy to place and the item was shipped immediately. It arrived a day earlier than I expected. Thank you!

I have had the 1st generation and 3rd iPad Pro 12.9, but this gen is awesome. I can tell the difference in snappy transitions, no lag opening apps, switching between apps, or opening Excel, Word, and image files. My 3rd gen iPad Pro was damaged and I was unable to make the transition to the new one as usual. However, I had a backup in iTunes and was able to restore it to the new iPad without any issues. The large screen allows for a great split-screen experience.

This is my 3rd IPad & though I loved them all - I upgraded in particular to the 4th generation IPad Pro to take advantage of all the new features - my last IPad Pro was a 2nd generation. Since I’m into photography & art, this IPad Pro works great for me.
