Ipad Pro Smart Keyboard Vs Logitech

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

Good size, can carry the iPad Pro with the Apple iPad keyboard attached. Smart zippers that prevent pick pockets from opening the zippers too easily Lots of compartments for a bag so small Easy to put on and off. I like the features that enable this. The fabric is slightly wrinkled on the outward surface part near the upper seams. But this is a very minor cosmetic issue.

This is simply the best keyboard for an iPad Pro.

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.

For this iPad i had two options. The Smart Keyboard from apple or this. And I’m glad i chose those. The keyboard has a trackpad and a place to keep the apple pencil which i though i wont really need but found to be super useful.

I am Loving my new iPad Pro so far. Of course it’s light years ahead of the 2004 Apple iBook G4 that it is replacing (I know, I know...). Obviously there is somewhat of a learning curve with the differences but in a house with two teenagers to help, that’s been O.K. So far. I also got the “Magic Keyboard” with this iPad which of course also acts as a case. I don’t know if I’m more taken with the iPad, the Magic Keyboard or how they function together? - It is a joy to see perfectly functioning engineering like this! - I was concerned that I might not like the keyboard or that it would be too far off from the one I was used to, but I needn’t have been and actually like this keyboard better than my old one! Key function and sensitivity and keyboard size are great! - The iPad magnetically connects effortlessly with the Magic Keyboard and can charge from there too and when you want it disconnected for other uses, you just grab it and pull it off the keyboard component! - Once I’d set them both up my two aforementioned teenagers were even visibly impressed and I wondered if I sensed a little envy in their look even though they’ve had much further advanced electronic devices than their Dad for a long time up until this point. - It is fantastic and really does make it seem like a “real” laptop computer - or even better! Good Luck! & Cheers! M.

I haven’t used it yet but am looking forward to it. My iPad Pro barely fits with the Logitech folio.

Works fine with iPad Pro and magic 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.

This is the 2nd Logitech case like this that I’ve purchased for iPad, and I don’t regret either purchase. The keyboard connects to the iPad/iPad Pro via the contacts built in to the iPad so I no longer have to worry about making sure that a Bluetooth keyboard is charged in addition to the iPad. I don’t often need to use the built in track pad, but it is nice to have sometimes. It isn’t the easiest to use on a soft surface (lap, etc). It is definitely designed to be used in a desk, but the adjustable tilt angle makes it very comfortable to use on any hard surface that I’ve tried. If/when I buy a new iPad I plan to get a similar keyboard and case combo!
