Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the large trackpad and excellent battery life of the 12.9 MAX+ Wireless Keyboard. They also find it easy to use and connect, with many noting its affordability compared to competitors. However, some customers mention the keyboard's considerable weight and concerns about the hinge durability. The overall design receives positive feedback, although the added bulk is a recurring point of discussion.

    I really wanted to like this keyboard as much as my former Brydge, but it's just not the same. The plastic keys weren't aligned properly in the aluminum chassis and the bluetooth didn't want to stay connected. Finally, the mousepad jumped all over and didn't track well. Maybe mine was defective? It went back to Best Buy.

    Great but two cables to charge each device

    First great keyboard and as usual problematic trackpad that varies from app to app but never evnough to detract a star. I took a half star solely for the fact that you need to have two cables, one to charge the iPad and one to charge the keyboard. My assumption is that the keyboard houses a massive battery that allows it to run and run and run on a single charge and recharging both the keyboard and the iPad would me it takes much longer to recharge both with a single cable and charger, minor quibble. The Bluetooth connection is not as instantaneous as you would like but still just a bit of a lag that is not a true issue. The fit and finish makes your already awesom iPad Pro even more awesome. The whole unit makes it look like a MacBook and the quality really is outstanding. The keys have a beautiful feel and key travel is the best I have ever used in a keyboards for any of my iPads. The build quality is superb and the exterior finish is beautiful as well. The weight is noticeable as is the increase in thickness but I think if you need a keyboard to do your work then it is not too much of a trade off, I think it is a no brained. The iPad can easily in a under a second be to over and back to it just be a solo tablet. I love the keyboard to do office work on desk and more importantly late at night in my comforting bed. A winner, get them when in sale!

    Overall very handy keyboard and the best one available outside of Apple itself. The only shortfall from Apple’s is that keyboard charges separately. But, there are serious trackpad issues and it can be a little bit finnicky

    Great addition to my 12.9” ipad pro. Space gray color matches perfectly. Case is very sturdy and will not fall over easily like some other brands. 10 out 10, will recommend!

    It’s an amazing keyboard. Rather than spending almost $400 for the “Magic Keyboard” this one is a really good option. Supper fast and precise when typing. Look in nice and clean.

    Keyboard works pretty good Hinge is very, very troublesome, it's not strong enough to go to its 30 degrees without eventually breaking and losing all support

    If you think this will magically turn your iPad into something resembling a macbook air, you're wrong. If you want an accessory that makes it much easier to type, you've come to the right place.

    The keyboard was really easy and nice to use, and build quality was great. However the newest iPad pro m1 makes this keyboard not close all the way. It closes if you hold it closed but the hinge for some reason keeps the whole thing open a half inch from being fully closed if you leave it alone on a table. The iPads dimensions also make it stick out a millimeter on all three exposed sides. My copy may have been a manufacturer error, but the tolerances seem a bit off for the most current iPad pro contrary to how this is advertised.
