What customers say
This keyboard folio earns praise primarily for its seamless integration and excellent typing comfort. The Smart Connector ensures instant, reliable power and pairing, creating a simple plug and play experience that boosts productivity. Users appreciate the satisfying key travel and full-sized layout, which significantly improves efficiency over on-screen typing. Its slim design maintains the iPad Pro's portability while offering stable viewing angles. However, the premium price is a major sticking point for many consumers. The most significant drawback is the complete absence of key backlighting, severely limiting usability in dim settings. While typing is top-notch, the high cost and missing features prevent universal acclaim, making it best suited for users prioritizing thinness and simplicity.
