Customers are mixed about the weight of the keyboard. Some mention it feels good, isn't too heavy, and transforms your product into a mini. The base is quite heavy, while others say it's so heavy. The entire setup adds minimal bulk to the iPad, has a beautifully lighted keyboard. However, some customers say it is bulky and heavy.

Customers are mixed about the fit of the keyboard. Some mention that it has a better fit, feel, and sturdy. They also appreciate the tight hinge that holds whatever position they put it in. However, others say that the case that wraps around the iPad mini doesn't fit well, is flimsy, and has already been damaged. The horizontal spacing is slightly more cramped than their laptop, but still more generous than several. Overall, the product adds a little bit of size but not too much to make it difficult to handle.

Customers are dissatisfied with the hinge of the keyboard. They mention that the case is cracking and breaking, and the strain caused micro fractures within the first month of use. The pressure from the poor hinge cracked the plastic strip that is the contact point for the iPad casing. Pieces of the cover have broken off and the hinged channel has broken away.
"...third of fourth time trying to fully open the case, another piece of the cover broke off where it connects with the magnetic hinge...." Read more
"...had to return the keyboard case once under warranty because the case is cracking and breaking...." Read more
"...cracking the hinge but the hinge is made of thick plastic and looks pretty strong; must have received some fairly rough treatment from them.8...." Read more
"...The other issue I just had is that I noticed a crack, at the corner where this same slot meets my iPad...." Read more
Customers are dissatisfied with the stability of the keyboard case. They mention that the iPad can easily fall out of the case, impacting the desk. The hinge on the replacement doesn't hold the iPad firmly, so it pops out every time the case is opened. The lack of securing the iPad may prove to be disastrous. The small slot at the front, the iPad will tend to simply pop out of case. The keyboard doesn''t easily slide off, and it disintegrated and fell off onto the table.
"...I tried to open the case again, being fairly gentle and the iPad popped out of the hinge and a small piece broke off the plastic cover...." Read more
"...Moments before it broke, I noticed that it was rocking towards me on the lower side when pressed, and multiple attempts to reseat it failed...." Read more
"...but only middling as a detachable keyboard since the keyboard doesn't easily slide off...." Read more
"...my iPad is actually less protected than without the case as it can easily fall out... impacting the desk, the floor, the ground, or objects that..." Read more

The keyboard feel is top notch! I am a sensory typer, and I need a very tactile keyboard with lots of feedback, and this one is great. It feels like a legitimate laptop; so much so, that you find your thumb scrolling for the trackpad! Also, the IPad screen is very securely held in place by the magnets at the base of the keyboard, and you can tilt the screen at multiple angles very securely without the screen flopping over because of the weight. I am a couch/bed user, and this is important!
Many people criticize the overall weight of the unit when the ipad is connected, and also the flimsy plastic cover that the ipad is encased within. I totally get that criticism, but in my opinion, these criticisms are like splitting hairs. The weight is totally fine with me; the ipad is weighty, and the keyboard is substantially weighty and tactile (which is great for folks like me) but this means it cannot be light as a feather. Yes, it's a bit weighty, but I personally like it, it feels solid and strong. If you want something light as a feather, then go with a different keyboard. But keep in mind you will sacrifice keyboard feel and screen flexibility for weight so you have to choose.
Yes, the casting for the iPad Pro is very thin plastic. It cuts down on the weight and it helps the magnets at the base of the keyboard hold very firm to the heavy weight of the large screen. I ready many reviews, and many people from the Zagg sight claim that the company is very generous in replacing the unit if it cracks or fades with use. So I am giving this a positive review until anything happens with the casing, and then I will see how the company responds. For me, so far so good, with extensive use - if the plastic casing fails, I will update my review with Zaggs response. So far I say, don't let the reviews hold you back. This is a very decent purchase.
I was understandably hesitant of getting yet another ZAGG, but the Slim Book seemed promising, so I took the chance. Hrmmphhh...
While the keyboard seems solid and responsive, the case that wraps around the iPad mini doesn't fit well, is flimsy, and has already broken at the Lightning port/speaker cutouts. I've had to superglue it.
ZAGG, if you could make the Slim Book's iPad case at least the same quality as that of the Folio, this would be a winner. As it is, I'm vacillating between 2 and 3 stars for this product. I've only had a few days with it; let's see if the keyboard holds up and the case doesn't crack/break some more.
Suggestions:
1) Sturdier case
2) Automatic standby/shutoff of keyboard when in book, tablet, or video mode (maybe make the magnetic contacts detect orientation/presence of iPad)
3) Bring back the colors/levels of backlight
4) Make it tilt back a little bit more in keyboard mode
5) ... while at the same time, fix balance/hinge so it doesn't tip over
UPDATE Feb 2 2015: Dropping to 2 stars. The iPad has the tendency to be left behind when you lift the cover/case in keyboard mode. ZAGG, I think your customers deserve at least an improved replacement case. :-(
UPDATE May 2 2015: Dropping to 1 star. The plastic around the speaker has completely broken off, and for some reason the magnets have gotten weaker. (5/4/2015: It's because the hinge has cracked.) Lifting the iPad mini in keyboard mode now leaves the keyboard behind, and sometimes the iPad would fall out of the keyboard slot, where before it would simply tilt over but have the keyboard still attached.
UPDATE May 16 2015: Despite my previous 1 star rating, this still has the best keyboard layout for the iPad mini. I couldn't help but get another one. Surprisingly, the same mini seems to fit better this time around. Could Zagg have adjusted the case in newer batches? Time will tell. I hope the plastic doesn't become brittle again. Giving 3 stars for now.
UPDATE June 23 2015: I gave this two chances, but a month or so later, after taking extra care with the case, many the magnets on the hinge have come out on their own. This still has the best keyboard part, but the hinges and the iPad case are a huge letdown.
