    This product is very durable and provides great protection! The backlit keyboard is great. My only complaints are the weight and lack of color options. Overall satisfied.

    I love this case! The case is a 2-piece system - a durable case to cover the iPad and then the keyboard with a magnetic strip to hold the iPad in. It is so easy to take the iPad out of the case depending on what you are doing with it.

    Tough enough case and cool backlite keyboard

    A tough case alone wasn't enough for me. Some cases are too much tough. This case is a great balance of a case that can handle some bumps and a keyboard that rarely needs a charge and backlit keys for typing in low light. Love it!

    Purchased this because we were looking for a very sturdy cover for an iPad that will be used by a mechanic but we also needed a keyboard. It was difficult to find both in the same product. This fits the bill! The keyboard works great and is backlit with multiple colors to choose from. The case it sturdy and should be able to provide protection in a fall. It does add a good bit of weight to the iPad but it is comfortable and a good trade for protection.

    Great product! Battery’s charge last a while. I like that your able to detach the keyboard the magnets holding it together are pretty strong. Also like that your can change the keyboard lighting to multiple different colors.

    The keyboard works great and I like the choice of colors you can choose to highlight the keys. I also have the case for the iPad Mini 4 and I wish there was a case as strong as that one for the 10.5 Pro

    Good protection for tablet. Keyboard works very well. A bit heavy but that’s expected in a heavier cover.

    This case is great. I love how the keyboard is a quick magnetic attach. Only dislike is it is really heavy with the keyboard. Adds some extra weight.

    The key board is very good, but a little Harvey. When I want to use it without keyboard, but iPad is still connect to keyboard, I have to manually turn off Bluetooth to disconnect it in order to use

    Bought this version as we have two toddlers in our home. The case, while heavy, is great and the keyboard is amazing. Highly recommend this case for iPad users seeking something that is versatile and durable.

    I’ve had two Zagg keyboard covers for iPads. The 1st was for a mini, that suffered from poor design. My rugged messenger is indeed rugged and protects my iPad very well. It connects together by using magnets which is clumsy at times but much better than the lousy connection to my iPad mini. The keyboard is great and the Bluetooth connection a breeze. Best Buy’s service during the covid outbreak was exemplary!

    Overall I think the keyboard works great while it does add some bulk to the iPad itself the overall typing experience for myself has been great if you use it with the keyboard facing down you do have to be careful of it detaching from the magnetic bottom but that's a small thing to me for General typing use absolutely loved easier to use and quicker than my laptop

    This is a very nice cover and keypad. It fits perfectly, keys respond nicely, and turns my iPad on/off when I open/close the case. The only negative, and it's a small one, is that it is a bit heavy.

    The keyboard has a great feel, the key spacing makes typing comfortable and the keyboard is sturdy and solid. Connection is seamless. The backlit keyboard is a bonus and makes working at night easy, I have not noticed any light escaping to shine on the screen. The hard case for the iPad is slim and comfortable to hold, fits with my glass screen protector and I feel would protect against drops. I have no complaints and feel it is worth the money.
