Customers are saying

Customers admire the VersaType™ keyboard case's high-quality keyboard, especially its illuminated keys, and long-lasting battery life. They also appreciate its ease of use, protective qualities, and convenient swivel feature, allowing for flexible viewing angles. A common concern, however, is the added weight of the case. The ability to charge other devices is another feature frequently praised by users.

    Bought this case and within 4 months it's cracking and falling apart. I previously purchased a case for half the cost that was built much better. The 360 degree is great until the plastic starts to crack. Don't buy this item or if you do, buy the warranty so that you can replace every few months.

    Less than a year of regular use with minimal wear and tear, the case has cracked in the corners and hinge.

    My only two complaints about this product is that makes the iPad heavy to hold and the price is too high. The rest is great, for example the construction quality, the versatility, keyboard and overall desing and esthetic.

    Nice but not exactly what I was looking for

    Pros -Swivel design lets you use as a laptop or tablet -Slim design looks and feels pretty nice Cons -Heavy (but not too bad) -A bit Flimsy -I wish the rubbery texture was more of a leather -needs some sort of a latch Final Verdict its a great case if your looking for versatility of use and you take really good care of things. Very easy to use and looks pretty good too. I bought this product in a brick and mortar Best buy store. I had trouble locating what I was looking for so if this is what you are looking for check the middle for independent displays as I was walking out because I didn't like what I had seen so far I ran right into them. Keyboard works great - pairs up easily and has some nice short cut features...I'm still learning about more as I type. The biggest feature - I was looking for was a case that would swivel and let you use it like a tablet as well as allow you to use it like a laptop and this is it. There were a few other brands that did the same thing but they seemed very bulky. This case adds some serious weight - so if you are using it alot and holding it you might want to get 2 cases one light weight tablet style with no keyboard and this one. I don't hold mine a lot while workings so its not a big deal to me. Durability is ok but you basically just attached a keyboard to your ipad. If you drop it the wrong way its probably not going to be good for either the ipad or the keyboard but it is certainly better than no protection. Missing feature - My only real beef with the case is that there is no latch it just kind of clam shells together which is fine and it's pretty sturdy now however I think with some use it might loosen up a bid and become more floppy. I think if they had just included some kinda of latch to keep it together when folded closed in both directions it would improve it a lot.

    It works well and it does make the IPAD feel like a laptop. However it does add bulk and weight. It is heavier than.other alternatives. It does have good protection for the IPAD and the keys are good for typing (used it for this review). However, something more sleek like the Surface Pro cover would be more practical. The IPAD keypad sold by Apple does not provide the protection or the key travel that you will need for use as a laptop alternative as this case provides.

    Great Keyboard - heavy case

    I was looking for a replacement for my last Bluetooth keyboard which had lost too many keys to be workable. After review, I bought this one - mindful of the battery life and ability to refresh an iPhone charge. Pros: 1) love the keyboard, spacing, key travel, etc. I'm a self-taught typist, so I can't speak for touch typist. 2) No trouble Bluetooth- much easier to pick up the signal than my last 2 keyboards. 3) Sturdy in construction. 4) Weight allows good typing position stability for keyboard as well as on screen keyboard Cons: 1) That battery is heavy - so pick it up before you buy. 2) good not great protection - the case doesn't close completely - no clasp or magnet - and there are a couple of thin parts that will break if you drop on that part. 3) No magnet - so does not auto shut off screen when closes All in all - I' m happy with the purchase after 2 months of heavy use.

    This keyboard allows me to quickly and effortlessly switch between typing notes and using my Apple Pencil for drawing pictures, writing out calculations in math classes, etc. As a college student. The 360 versatility allows excellent stand, keyboard, and reader style platforms. And the weight is proportioned so that it doesn't tip over when typing. The case is not flimsy at all and provides excellent protection. The keyboard functions excellently. The only improvements would be to move the screenshot key away from the space bar since you occasionally accidentally hit it and the lock screen key since that can be hit if you overshoot the backspace key. But those are minor issues compared to the great benefits I've gotten by owning this versatype keyboard.

    Outstanding accessory for my Apple Air 2. Likes: • Very durable, easy to use. • Enjoy the back-lit keyboard. Typing experience is akin to that of a laptop. • Swivel stand is great for easy viewing. • Although the 4 in 1 may be used for a variety of applications, it is particularly convenient for traveling. Dislikes: • Case tends to be heavy because of the built-in power bank. (Still preferable to traveling with a more cumbersome laptop!) • When using the keyboard for typing text messages, pressing the enter key automatically sends the text instead of returning the cursor to the next line of your typed message. This phenomenon does not occur, however, if typing an email message.

    Great Keyboard/Case

    This keyboard is easy to use and offers protection for your iPad. It is sturdy and flat so you can use it in your lap. It is adjustable and feels more like a mini computer than a tablet. If you want to read and need a tablet format - just roll the case around and you have a tablet. Pricey but worth the money. I'm happy that I returned the Apple keyboard and purchased this one.

    Rugged & functional

    I've wanted a good functional keybord/case for my iPad. I've actually tested and compared this one with the Zagg Rugged. I like them both a lot & they have a lot of similar functions. The lighted keyboard is nice along with the ability to charge my iPhone, though I'm not sure I'd ever need this function. It is a bit heavy (about the same weight as the Zagg Rugged). Despite its thickness & weight, the smooth case has a sleek feel. The rotating hinge works very well and makes it multi-functional. One thing I didn't like is when holding it in the vertical tablet position to read, the weight makes it somewhat uncomfortable to hold for very long as it slides through my hands. I'm planning to buy the Zagg over this one. The main difference is that the Zagg is detachable, which makes it more comfortable to hold. If I didn't have that other choice, I would definitely stick with this Targus, as it seems to be an excellent product.

    Fits like a glove, easy to setup, battery life is exceptional and the protection provided by this cover is nothing short of awesome! Watching videos/on demand content is almost like having the throwback portable 10-13 inch TV's. Sturdy, durable, and highly portable.

    I was looking for a case with a bluetooth keyboard. I have been using this one for about a month and I love it. The keyboard works great and I love that the case swivels and will hold the position and the keyboard does not get in the way like other cases. The only negative is the weight. The weight does however come in handy when you want the screen tilted back away from you. It keeps the tablet from falling back.

    What a wonderful cover for my iPad Pro. It's durable, and I love the lit keypad. The keypad was a must and I was looking at other brands that had optional keypad colors, but when I entered the store, one of the BB tech guys asked me what I was looking for, I told him and he presented me with the Targus. What really sold me on this was the fact that it swivels and I can have it either landscape or portrait, the others I looked at did not have that option. I love how it swivels, I took it on the plane and it was awesome to have that 90 degree angle while watching movies. It's a durable case, one that will be on the iPad FOREVER, so glad I purchased this and that the Best Buy guy helped me.

    Love it but there are a few tiny annoying things

    Great keyboard. Love that it can swivel to become a tablet or a "laptop". Good keys. Activates the BT connection pretty quickly and holds a charge for months and months. The only problem I have is that a couple of little things are easily messed up. I am extremely careful with my equipment. Saying that, within two weeks, a small piece of plastic up by the iPad power button cracked and now my finger catches on it whenever I reach for the power button. I am afraid that I will break it off completely. The little rubber feet on the bottom are great but do NOT slide them across a sharp square edge at the end of a table - it will scrape the little things right off and the glue will not hold them on again. These are pretty minor things. They are annoying but I would not give up on this case yet. It is the best BT keyboard case, that reverses, that I have found.

    I needed a case for my IPad Pro. I like the blue tooth keyboard and the swivel so you can spin the screen around. The only down side is that the keyboard function is useless when you have an app that won't operate when the screen is vertical. Other than that it's a great tool to have!

    As I have been used to using a laptop - I felt like I would want the keyboard with the IPad so I could essentially use it like a laptop. I don't always use the keyboard but it is nice to have/use when needed. Plus it serves as a great hardcover case to keep the IPad safe from damage.
