Q: Is the keyboard detachable without removing the iPad from the case?
A: Yes it is. The keyboard is the outer case that is connected with magnets on the iPad connectors. The iPad itself is in a plastic like case, but no screen protection. So yes it can be separated into 2 parts. I think you can actually still use the keyboard as it is bluetooth. The pencil holder is part of the plastic case also. I have this case and the Logitech one, I prefer this one.
Q: What do you do when the battery dies after 2 years?
A: When I got the keyboard initially, I thought it was great but after two months it would not hold a charge. I contacted Zagg and they replaced it although they were not happy about it. The keyboard NEVER held a charge for two years and barely two months. Now, a year or so later, the numbers on the keyboard no longer work. I have gone to the internet for troubleshooting. In the end, I think this keyboard is essentially junk.
A: The keys have lights under them and they automatically come on when you type. The letters on the keys don’t actually light up as the light shines from around the keys. There is enough reflective light that I can type in a dark room. You are able to turn the light off or select from three different brightness levels. You can also change the color of the light between 7 different colors.
A: Bluetooth
A: The two iPads are different sizes so the cases are different sizes. Your iPad Air case probably doesn't hold the pencil. Otherwise they should be functionally similar.
A: No, it does not fold behind
Q: Can I charge the IPAD and the keyboard in one?
A: No. The keyboard cover has its own charging cord, and is charged separately from the iPad. The keyboard cover holds a charge much longer than the iPad, I don't know how long yet, because mine is still on its initial charge.
A: Correct. It only comes with the usb cord. You can use your ipad’s charger. Its pretty common for products like this not to come with the wall plug. Honestly, i charged mine over a month ago and its almost full still.
