  1. keyboard

    Has to recharge regularly. Does not hold a charge for very long. Has a delay when trying to type. Its not very convenient, other than providing great physical protection for the device.

  2. JO77

    I love ZAGG products but the keyboard attachment to the iPad is awful. When you rotate at different angles, it can snap out of place rather easily

  3. Bobby

    Very good quality, protects the iPad and the keyboard works extremely well. Would definitely recommend.

  4. MikaT

    my ipad is older and so is my pencil so it doesn’t stick to my ipad or case magnetically. this case has been a godsend because i like to type on a keyboard but my daughter likes to drop my ipad and lose the pencil. all of my problems are remedied with this case. it’s really sturdy, stands the ipad up. can be used when detached from the keyboard, the charge lasts a long time, and it holds my pencil.

  5. LogitechWebcam

    Good product.
    Protects my iPad and the keyboard works well and is much better than screen typing.
    Slight lag when first connecting, but types well after. I like the easy disconnect from the iPad for iPad only use. Great feature.

  6. Tory

    Great keyboard. .

  7. Asia

    I love this case. It’s not too bulky however sometimes detaching and attaching the keyboard can be tricky. The battery life on the keyboard is outstanding. Definitely would recommend for tablet users on the go.

  8. MyLady61

    It didn’t work from day one and it was very heavy for a 60 with arthritis to handle.

  9. Bryna

    Works wonderfully & easy to quickly attaches iPad & works fantastic

  10. BrandiS

    Worst case ever! iPad does not turn off or screen go off when case is shut. Screen does not stay in place when open. Be careful because the whole top of the case with the iPad will fall off.

  11. Meredith

    For the first year, I would’ve rated it 4 stars. It’s a great, secure case. The keyboard paired well. The only issue was that the hinge was so tight that it would often snap apart rather than hinging. Then, almost exactly a year after I bought it, the comma key acted like it was being pressed over and over again rapidly. I took the key out and tried to blow out anything that might’ve been stuck in the mechanism. It didn’t work. After about the fourth time trying, another key stopped working too. The rapid repetitive triggering of keys renders the keyboard useless. It never even saw that much use, because I tend to favor my other devices. With how long iPads last, I’m expecting that I paid way more per month of use for this keyboard case than for the iPad itself, which is very disappointing.

  12. KimN

    Bought because of adjustable viewing angle but unhappy with the stiff and noisy hinge action. The hinge stops when opening and the case detaches from the keyboard with a loud pop sound. Has not proved with use. Like the keyboard and tough shell.

  13. Earp

    Keys don’t work correctly. Irritated at the price i paid for it

  14. Poorhinge

    Nice and sturdy by design but this is my 6th keyboard from Zagg. After a short period of time the magnetized hinge stop moving. I have to remove the iPad from the keyboard, physically adjust the hinge to a proper position, then reposition the iPad. Lousy design for the hinge.

  15. ChristmasPresent

    Got this for my wifes IPAD because she wanted back lit key board. Its on the heavier side(Doesnt bother me because i know itll have no problem protecting the IPAD), and the hinge to adjust the tilt angle is a bit finicky. No problems with keyboard itself. She just got a LOGITECH, much lighter and the angle of the screen is much easier to adjust

  16. Niso

    Great keyboard for tablets and iPads. Easy to use.

  17. josvac

    I purchased this for my daughter but have the same rugged book for my iPad Pro. She loves it! These work great to use your iPad as a tablet or as a laptop style tablet. You can detach and take your iPad knowing it’s protected or keep the keyboard connected. I would highly recommend this item!

  18. Chris

    Love, love, love this keyboard! It transforms my iPad into a “laptop”! The case is very protective and the keyboard is awesome. Well worth the price.

  19. YouDeserveMusic

    I really love this keyboard and Case. The case is so sturdy, I’ve dropped my iPad a few times and it has never gotten damaged.
    I love being able to type on the keyboard, and it’s really versatile to be able to use the iPad in different ways.

  20. BobK

    Turns your delicate iPad into a bombproof laptop! Keyboard works and lights well. The hinge on mine failed but Zagg replaced it with no problem.

  21. Pasaway

    Bought this for my sons iPad. He loves that the keyboard color can be changed. He has dropped it several times with the case without incident. Great value and product

  22. Tessa

    I LOVE this!! This is a good quality product and worth the money. I really like that I can completely detach the keyboard. The keyboard keys are very comfortable to use. The backlight for the keyboard is both fun and practical. With the latest 10.2 iPad inserted it’s at 2.8 lbs, but I prefer to carry this over a laptop. It was important for me to find a product that would hold my Apple Pencil on the inside. To me, the Pencil holder looks like it would be perfect for a 2nd generation but my 1st generation Pencil fits fine. The covers for the headphone jack and the lightening cable port are very stiff. I don’t use the headphone jack but it was a problem for the lightening cable. I didn’t like that the cable couldn’t go in straight and I didn’t want any parts bent so I just cut the cover off. It would be great if this product came in different colors. This product has taken my iPad to a whole new level and I can’t go back to using my tablet without it!

  23. Hub3

    I bought this for my wife too protect her iPad and it had not only saved us from getting destroyed by our grandkids, but also makes it convenient to use with the keyboard. Definitely pleased with it

  24. lyndaad

    Love this keyboard it is very sturdy. It protects the iPad very well/ this is the third one i have had. Well worth the money

  25. shadowmstr

    Bought this to replace an apple keyboard that had stopped working. Fit my Ipad Pro very well. The lighted keyboard works great.

  26. Chef

    Heavy duty protective cover. Great product with a ease of touch lit keyboard.

  27. MyBuy

    Perfect iPad case for the rough guy. Very sturdy. Was a little hard to open when new but just had to break it in.

  28. BumblebeeSassy

    Very nice case. Easy to remove from keyboard and feels like I wouldn’t sweat if I dropped it getting in and out of my truck.

  29. gochenoura

    Great, heavy duty iPad case and keyboard. Works flawlessly via Bluetooth.

  30. Keyboard

    Good product nice design sturdy practical use daily

  31. Robyn1226

    Constantly disconnected keyboard from Bluetooth and would not re-pair at times. Case was good quality but returned two due to connectivity issues.

  32. Steve

    This is not a good case. The hing, where the ipad sets is so stiff you cannot move it, even to close the case. After a short time the part that holds the ipad cracks. Do not recommend unless you are going to carry around two separate pieces.

  33. Zagg

    I’ve had this for about two years now. At the start, it works great. After repeated use, it begins to give out and can’t hold your ipad anymore. This has happened with the two of these I’ve owned. If your Ipad is too heavy and at an angle, it “snaps” and gives out. You can see this in the cracking where your Ipad is held. The rubber around the Ipad isn’t snug, and the area around the camera is broken. I use my Ipad for schoolwork, so it isn’t being used extremely harshly or anything. Overall, I rate it 3/5 stars since the problem with the “snap” has happened with both cases I’ve had. The keyboard still works fine after 2 years, and the battery life is great. This case has stuck with me for a while, but the “snap” that happens is honestly annoying, and knowing its not just this keyboard and that its happened on two of the same products makes me wonder if it happens to all of them too.

  34. Date

    This was a great purchase. I love the flexibility of it. I would purchase it again.

  35. Comfortable

    Perfect for my use. Easy to set up. Love that is has a pencil storage inside. A little heavy but I don’t worry about it when I throw it in my bag with a lot of other stuff like heavy books.

  36. Splintermind

    My heart is divided with this keyboard. Yes it works but not with all apps

  37. Fawn

    Great item ~ wouldn’t be without it ~ Highly recommend

  38. MsDee

    The case is very sturdy. I would give it a 5-star rating except the keys are a bit rough.

  39. SGVH

    It seemed like an excellent price, however, the value was not there as the keyboard had several letters that would not work. It proved very frustrating and had to be returned.

  40. JamesB

    Best case/ cover for rugged use that I have found to date. Seems well made and sturdy thus far

  41. CDDVDdrive

    Problem with opening the cover. Product was returned/ replaced with other.

  42. JDUB

    Heavier than I wanted but protects well. Don’t like that the key board on the iPad always comes up

  43. Best

    Tough and durable. Best case for iPad! I love that despite it being a tough case, it’s not bulky.

  44. mariah

    this is insane quality. i have had this keyboard case for a long time. the case is such great quality and is very protective. the keyboard is an awesome touch and always comes in handy. i couldn’t recommend a better case.

  45. Grimscythe

    Haven’t had it long but it seems like a nice case. Heavy but offers good protection. Love that it stays open on it’s own. Has a slot that holds a iPad pencil but since I got one off Amazon it doesn’t fit tightly and can fall out when open. And a little on the pricey side. Hoping it lasts longer than the last Zagg case which only made it a year before the keys weren’t working right.

  46. Bugbee2

    This thing is tough. I do a lot of field work with my iPad and this case is exactly what I needed. It even has a magnet in the hinge that helps it stick to my work bench.

  47. Andre

    Great military style case for my iPad I love zag products

  48. Djack

    Best protector/keyboard there is…great Bluetooth capabilities/benefits…only thing that would make better is a built in screen protector

  49. MoHoGo

    Product so nice I bought it twice! I have traveled extensively with this case. For some reason, half of the keys stopped working. I trust the brand so O bought an identical one. We’ll see!

  50. MallardDuck

    This keyboard/case is indeed rugged. This is my 2nd Zagg case. I wore out the first one and had no hesitation to get another. My only concern is that the hinge action is very tight causing concern that the hinge could break while opening/closing the lid.
