Does A Bluetooth Keyboard Work With An Ipad

Does everything you could want, protect your iPad, has a great keyboard, iPad can easily be detached from keyboard & it still provides protection!!

I ordered the Bluetooth keyboard to go with an iPad I bought for my son and it arrived in just a few days! I was also very well packaged. Thanks!

This keyboard works out perfectly for my iPad Pro 12.9. I love the following features: 1) iPad/keyboard interface without a bluetooth; 2) the great multi gesture trackpad; 3) the full size, backlit keyboard without a need of battery. 4) This keyboard enhances the functionality of iPad Pro and make it more useful. Some shortcomings: 1) the weight of the keyboard is a little heavy. 2) a little pricey.

Up until now, I could connect either a USB-audio headphone OR a USB-compliant MIDI keyboard to my USB-C iPad via a wired connection, but not both. This meant that one of the two – keyboard or headphone – had to be connected via Bluetooth. This is usually not a problem except when trying to record a live performance, where Bluetooth latency is frankly unacceptable. With the MiniFuse, however, both the keyboard and the headphone attach to the interface, and a single USB-C cable connects to the iPad. I have so many neat synth and other music creation apps on there that I can finally use live! This is HUGE for me. Note that the MiniFuse 4 supports up to 500 mA keyboards via its USB-hub, so long as it's plugged in, whereas the MiniFuse 2 supports only up to 250 mA devices, which cuts out most external USB-compliant MIDI keyboards. Yeah, it's a bit of a pain to have to plug the MiniFuse 4 to a wall socket to make it all work, but that's still just a single wire. Oh, also, I've connected some synths to the audio inputs, and I've been running both the headphone and main Audio outputs, as well as the loopback interface both with the iPad and my mac, and it all works and sounds fantastic. The manual takes a bit of careful reading to understand the possible routings (for me at least, I'm a newbie at this) but it's well written and I was able to figure it out pretty quickly. I didn't know I needed it, but now that I have the MiniFuse, I can't imagine not having it as the central hub to my synthesizer setup.

The magic keyboard is really nice in terms design and feeling of touches. The keys are even better than my old 2015 MBP which is also scissors keyboard. The travel is just right and the feedback is good. Pros: 1. Fit iPad Pro very well. 2. No Bluetooth required and thus you don’t need to switch whether you want to use keyboard. If you don’t need the keyboard, just grab iPad from it. Unlike the Bluetooth keyboard, you have to disconnect it otherwise, the on screen keyboard won’t show. 3. You can have a port for charge only and don’t take up the usb-c port. 4. Protective. This keyboard seems very strong. 5. Software integration is really good. Track pad works well. And it just feels like using a MacBook. Cons: 1. Very heavy. It is really heavy. I feel it is heavier than my iPad Pro. 2. When touch the number keys, there are chance that you will hit the edge of the iPad. The space between iPad and the keyboard is a bit tight. So you might hit iPad’s edge. 3. Some app and website might have issue with two fingers scroll on the track pad. 4. A bit noisier than my old MBP.

This case is the perfect compliment to the iPad. The Bluetooth keyboard is very responsive. The multi-color backlit keyboard makes it perfect in low light conditions. The case construction ensures that a 5’ drop will keep your iPad safe.

It's roomy enough for my iPad Air including the Bluetooth keyboard I attached to it. The handles are sewn securely to the case. I can easily slide the handles over my wrist when I need to use both hands temporarily for something else. I'm glad it doesn't have a shoulder strap like so many other cases. The zipper teeth are large enough to mesh easily and reliably every time.

I love added functionality the keyboard provides; it makes it easier to use the iPad for work.

If you're debating this keyboard, I recommend it. Here are some minor benefits I've enjoyed: - Backlit keys when color grading in a dark room - Sturdy and doesn't slide on the desk - Bluetooth and wired work seamlessly The surprise benefit is that this keyboard works in Bluetooth mode to enter my password after a complete shutdown and power-up. None of the other non-Apple Bluetooth keyboards I own will do this. They work after a RESTART but not on POWER-UP. I was very impressed that they got this right. NOTE: The following was true when I wrote this review on September 5, 2024. This might sound very nitpicky, but the insert card that came with a keyboard directed me to the following website: Logickeyboard.com/shortcut There is no guide for FCPX. I emailed to inquire about this and was sent a link to the Apple website containing the 900+ page user manual. The shortcut guide is more of a nice to have, but I thought I would call it out anyway.

I've been using clicky mechanical keyboards with my desktop computers for years. I love the build quality, the key travel and that satisfying sound. My only issue's been the thickness because my keyboard tray isn't deep enough to accommodate a palm rest. That meant an uncomfortable wrist angle. This Logi low profile solves that easily. For my purposes, this keyboard does everything I need, want and like. And it does it beautifully. Regarding comments about a slow backlighting sensor, the keys on my unit light up as my hands approach and it seems to be on a par with Logi's MX Keys which I've also used and I did not find it objectionable. As for backlighting going off too quickly, I don't have a problem with that either. It probably helps battery life, which is outstanding. I'm using this new keyboard, via Bluetooth, with one of Apple's new iMacs with the silicon chip and the Bluetooth connection is solid. The Bluetooth settings do show the percentage of the battery charge. If you need to boot from safe mode where Bluetooth doesn't work, just pair the keyboard to the included Logi Bolt USB receiver. The only suggestion I would make to Logitech would be to consider using PBT keycaps since they are virtually immune to fingertip oils and smudges, although a microfiber cloth will work on the existing keycaps.
