Apple Smart Keyboard for iPad

Si può spendere meno, ma qualitativamente notevole

Love it. The keyboard is small but easy to use. It is easy to attach to iPad magnetically and stays attached. The connection is good. It closes over the screen and serves a very good protector, stays closed. It is designed to form a triangle that creates a stand. It is sturdy and well-made.

Nice. A nice keyboard–love the action of the keys. The stand is sturdy & serves okay as a screen cover. I suspect it will not wear well at the joints–we’ll see how long they last.

Fast service… excellent product. I am happy to own this iPad… it’s all that was promised

Apple never gives you the wrong expectations. Very slim and easy/ comfortable to type. I bought it for my iPad (9th Gen ) so it could be easier to bring it to class. I love it! I do recommend buying another case to protect the back side of your iPad though

I ordered Apple Smart Keyboard and received it next day with Amazon Prime Free Delivery. It works great on my Apple iPad Air (3rd Generation). Keyboard is truly smart it start working soon as you attach to iPad. On a productivity note, you’ll be ready to work immediately. Like Steve Jobs said, “It Just works” and one more thing… I’m using this Smart Keyboard to submit this review.

I like that it easily snaps to the iPad. The magnetic connection is strong. The back can be bent to hold your screen at the right angle for typing. The keyboard is like the larger keyboards used for a pc. Same keys in same places. Very nice.

Connects easily to IPAD (9th gen). No extra charging for the keyboard.The only disadvantage is that there is no protection for the back of the IPAD.

Pretty good design. I have tried and reviewed two keyboards recently for the 7th Gen iPad. One I did not like at all, and then there’s this one.This design is clearly well thought out. I was disappointed because I misread that this one was backlit. It isn’t. I am also a little disappointed that the back of the iPad isn’t protected at all by this case — it isn’t a folio. However, it ends up having a slight advantage by not being a folio — the cover is removable easily and quickly when you don’t need it, and there is as little bulk as possible. This is hardly bigger/heavier than a simple front cover with no keyboard.Those of you who have had iPads for years will remember the first “covers” that ever came out were pretty much just like this — a magnetic flap that covers only the screen portion of the iPad. I assume those still exist. I’ve only used the folio version the past 7+ years, myself. I hate the idea of the back getting damaged from regular use or dropping.That said, I don’t think you could design a keyboard cover any better than this one. It folds two ways, one with the keyboard in front of the screen and one way with the keyboard behind. When the cover is folded over either way, the hard plastic of the keys does NOT touch either the front or the back of the iPad. That’s good design! The other, much cheaper, folio I bought and reviewed scratched my screen when it was closed. Yuck.One thing I really appreciate about this keyboard is that it does not need charging or a Bluetooth connection. That is one less cable to worry about and the keyboard will never run out of power while you’re using it. The way the cover connects is securely via the magnets on the side of the iPad. I suppose were it backlit, it would draw more power from the iPad. As it is, this keyboard is impossible to use in dark rooms if you don’t touch-type, but fine in average-lit rooms or daylight. Honestly, I don’t do that much writing on the iPad, but when I do, this works much better than the onscreen keyboard.The keyboard is touted to be “full sized” but it falls a bit short of the width and height of full-sized Air keyboard. The action is pretty stiff, but the layout is such that you’re not randomly hitting extra keys or functions. The delete and shift keys are where your hands expect them to be. I’ve owned some other third-party iPad keyboards that stuffed in random function keys or made the right shift key too small, so I always had to look at my hands rather than touch-type.I do not think I would have paid full price for this keyboard, especially since it isn’t backlit. The Amazon price is decent, especially if you want to have a very slim, very convenient keyboard that you never have to charge right at your fingertips. It definitely makes the iPad even more portable and functional. Whether you want to use the iPad to view videos at almost 90 degrees, to write with the keyboard at around 50 degrees, or take the cover completely off and hold just the pad in your hands, you can do all of that very quickly and easily. That, I think, are the smarts in this design.I’ll be looking for some sort of back cover or film, though, that fits with this cover. That way, the metal will be protected even when the front cover is off.
