Let me first say that this review SHOULD be a five star review because for the past few months, this case has been an absolute DREAM. The moment the ipad magnetically clicks onto the keyboard, you can already tell the high quality and functionality of this case. The keyboard works great, the automatic bluetooth connection is great, the battery lasts FOREVER, like I dont know how long it lasts because I've been using the keyboard for my classes about 6 hrs/day every day for the past 5 months and I've never had to recharge it since the first charge. The design is sleek, simple and user friendly, the padding on the keyboard is excellent. I've gotten so many compliments and inquisitive looks at my ipad because people don't realize how useful ipads can be on a daily basis when you have the right keyboard case for them! I love not having to lug around my laptop for just note taking and internet surfing on campus.
Okay, so why the 3 stars: About 4 months in, the CAPS lock button stopped working. I'm a little disappointed because I expected this to last a little longer than a few months, but given how well this case works and feels otherwise, I can't really give it anything lower than 3 stars. I'd be interested to see if I can somehow get this fixed or replaced with the warranty because I love this case otherwise! Depending on the customer service, I'll be updating the review and the star rating.
Please know that I have very large hands. large enough that I have had trouble with some desktop keyboards. However, not too large for my MacBook Pro, that keyboard is just about right. This keyboard is taking me a little to get used to the size. I feel scrunched, and I couldn't type forever. If I have something long, I will use my laptop. But this does all right, in fact this entire review was outlined and written on the iPad using the keyboard.
As I am first using this, I love some things. These are simple things, but make the iPad experience better. A tab key, for instance. The screen keyboard doesn't have a tab, that is weird, and I always miss it. Also, the fact that there is a command button is huge. You can do things like command-C to copy. Command-R refreshes in Safari. It's great Command-tab doesn't let you switch apps, which is a little disappointing.
I also really love having arrow keys. If for nothing else, they make selecting text way easier as I can now hold shift and arrow around to select. Finally, it won't take 2 minutes to select a couple words. Although it should be noted that this doesn't work in all apps.
I have also found the top row to be handy, especially since this case makes the volume keys nearly hidden. Being able to adjust simple things like screen brightness, volume, and return home from the keyboard has proven handy.
However, it's not all peaches. I have found myself missing keys sometimes, due to my big hands. That is getting better over time. And the delete key is kinda oddly placed. Also, I'm getting better at that over time. I also seem to hit the screen relatively often, with being a touch screen is a bit of a pain.
But the biggest pain is the lack of auto correct. This is not the fault of the keyboard, but rather iOS. I didn't know this would be a thing, and I really miss it. I am so used to misspelling words and having the first letter of a sentence capitalized, that I find myself going back a lot more. I really wish Apple would enable auto correct with an external keyboard. That would really help with my big hands.
But that is really the extant of my complaints. Everything else works really nice. The iPad is very securely held. The magnet that pairs the keyboard is strong enough to not let go when I hold by the top of the iPad. It pairs really quickly upon locking it in to the magnet. It looks nice, feels nice, and really doesn't add much more bulk or weight than a normal case.
Even with the lack of auto correct, my typing has turned out to be much faster, generally pretty accurate, and a breeze. For long typing sessions, I will still reach for my Mac Book. But on the go, this will be exactly what I need.
