Rugged Book Detachable Case with Magnetic-Hinged Backlit Keyboard for iPad Air/Air 2/9.7/9.7 Pro - Multi-Device Bluetooth Pairing - USB-C to USB-C Cable Included, Black

I absolutely love this case and keyboard from ZAGG! It’s a bit on the heavier side, but that’s actually a plus — I know my iPad is always perfectly protected. The quality is great, made from solid, durable plastic. I did have a bit of trouble putting the case on at first, but aside from that, everything has been perfect. What I love most is how smoothly the keyboard works — it’s fast, responsive, and syncs perfectly with my movements. Typing feels effortless and super comfortable. And the USB-C cable is just perfect — I can charge my phone, iPad, and keyboard with the same charger. So convenient and practical. Honestly, such a great setup!

My last Zagg Rugged case lasted me 6 years with NO problems and did a fantastic job of protecting my iPad. Also the battery in in the keyboard was able to go 3 months or so between charges and even after 6 years still holds a charge with NO problems. I got a new iPad and thankfully this style case is still available so I got another. Very well made and definitely worth the money. This case outlasted my old iPad.

Was skeptical at first with quite a few reviews saying the keyboard doesn’t last, but decided to try it anyway. So far so good, it is the most durable case i could find for the iPad Pro, with a keyboard. Time will tell how on how long it lasts. The magnet holds the pied very strong and sable, no issues with accidental release. Backlit keyboard works well and connects quickly with no issues. Wouldn’t mind a little brighter for the brightest setting for the key board. Other then that its a quality case and keyboard

Editing my original review, which still can be found below. Updated Review: While I really loved this case originally, it stopped working within 6 months. I assumed it must be my fault or something because I had loved the first one I bought for over a year. Unfortunately, it was outside the warranty, so I bought another in March 2023. I mostly use my iPad to watch shows or read, but I used the keyboard once a month to take notes during a committee meetings as secretary. Yet, at the end of June 2023, it stopped working yet again. Both times, most of the keys have stopped registering. This time, caps lock is stuck “on” and I can’t even get the keyboard as a whole to turn off. Unfortunately… there’s only a month warranty on the product. So twice in less than a year I’m left hanging. I’ve emailed the company, but they responded that I’m outside of warranty. Despite originally loving this product, I cannot in good faith suggest a product that stops working within a few months. I think my next move is to order on the actual Zagg website as they have extensive warranties and have been amazing to work with in the past — they just can’t fulfill warranties on products bought by a 3rd party. ******************** Original Review: I use my iPad mini like a computer all the time. I originally had this keyboard on my first iPad mini, but after I got a new one, I thought I could go with one that didn't seem so hefty (read: I wanted a super cute pink one instead). Dear reader, let me tell you, that was a mistake. I finally decided after 2 years of hardly using my iPad that maybe if I had the same keyboard I had before that I would use it more. And I do! It is hefty, but in a sturdy kind of way not a too heavy kind of way. The iPad section easily pops off if I just want to have that without the keyboard. The keyboard's battery life lasts and lasts, and easily connects to the iPad. People are always asking me where I got it and are saying how cute my "tiny laptop" is. Plus, it's made doing my on-the-go writing way easier. My fingers fit perfectly to the keys and I type just as easily as I do my full sized laptop. Lastly, I no longer have to worry about being clumsy... I've dropped this thing a few times and it's protected.

Good keyboard and fit as expected. Heavier than I anticipated and does not have dedicated pencil storage.

After looking over all the reviews I decided to purchase this product. It arrived on time and after unboxing the product the product looked to be of good quality. Fit my iPad nicely, connected via blue tooth quickly and worked perfectly, but this product doesn't have an indicator LED on the keyboard to let you know if its on or not and no indication to let you know the blue tooth is on or working... but after talking to customer service, he explained that the keyboard lights up and my contrast was all the way down. It also has a few different colors to choose from. Just after a week of owning this device I was out on my deck early one morning with my iPad, I went inside to get a cup of coffee and it started to rain heavily. By the time I got to my iPad (within a few seconds) the keyboard was soaking wet... I brought my iPad in and tilted it sideways into the sink to drain off the water and there was quite a bit of water in the keyboard. I tried to use keyboard and strange symbols came up. I removed the keyboard from my iPad and used a small shop-vac to suck out the remaining water and stored it in a large zip lock bag with rice and several silicon bags for several days to dry up the keyboard. After 5 days I connected the keyboard again with the iPad and turned it on and tried to connect to blue tooth. I took several tries to connect (error connection failed) and after several tries iPad finally connected to blue tooth. I tested out the keyboard again and some keys would not type and some keys typed funky symbols. I called customer service and explained what had happened and he said my Zagg has a 1 year warranty and they will replace it free of charge. He is shipping a brand new Zagg with a prepaid return label, he said that they will charge my CC until they get the damaged keyboard returned and will credit my CC. Awesome Customer Service....

My older (10.5”) iPad is running out of options for a keyboard/case. Bought a few cheaper ‘rotaty’ style cases, minimal protection but they worked great for a while, then the hinge broke the case and it was always past the warranty. When the last one went in less than a month, I opted for something better. Read the mostly positive reviews on this guy. Bit the bullet and grabbed it. Well, the Zagg is WELL BUILT!!! It’s now past 90 days and it’s still solid as a rock! I found I miss a dedicated ‘Screen Grab’ key, but I can get around that. My ONLY disappointment is I miss having a trackpad, but I can see and understand why it’s not offered, and it’s not a deal breaker. Keyboard battery life seems quite reasonable. Others commented on keyboard failures after 6 months or so, I guess I’ll find out. But until then, I am beyond happy with this case. Would I buy another? In a heartbeat! UPDATE - 4 months in and it WAS holding up quite well, occasionally missing a space bar click, but nothing horrible. Today the iPad was left on the roof of the car and subsequently ended up on the ground, in the road and lost! Discovered it missing at home and went crazy. Found that someone had picked it up and was wondering what to do. I got the iPad back with just some minor scratches on the Zagg case! Well done to Zagg for the awesome protection of my iPad! The keyboard wasn’t quite as fortunate, the hinge is now one dimensional! The stylus is now truly one dimensional! Another Zagg is on order, with pleasure!

This keyboard’s Perfect features trump it’s average reliability and weight. I usually get my zaggs from Best Buy with warrantee. Early zagging keyboard models had a very short battery life, suffered a broken hinge spring, periodically lost their I pad pairing, and after a year lost their ever loving mind( they would propagate a string of letters non stop) . Saving grace was that Best Buy replaced them same day. It was worth the hassle, because I loved the folding feature , the lit keyboard and perfect keyboard and soldiered on. Two years ago I even retired my laptop. The last zagg keyboard has lasted two years and I’ve only charged it twice…., When I upgraded to the 11th generation I pad , I matched it with a larger zagg. I’m loyal !!!!

A great case of taking your iPad mini out and about. The case protects the iPad well. The keyboard works efficiently and can easily detach from the screen cover so the iPad can be held more easily when using it for reading. Alternatively, fold the case the other way round and it acts as a stand whilst you watch a movie. A great, well made, multi purpose cover.

Esta ideal la forma como se mantiene la iPad y el tablero.

Probably the best thing I’ve bought for years. Highly recommended. Great service as well

Essentially made the iPad as practice as a little laptop

This is my second one - the first lasted close on 5 years to the day! I use it daily and tend to be a bit rough with stuff and this is brilliant- only reason for one less star is new design is a bit different and I prefer the old one - the keyboard is slightly different so I’m still adjusting. Highly recommend this product.
