SWITCHEASY CoverBuddy Lite for iPad Pro/Air Case, Magic Keyboard & Smart Keyboard Folio Compatible (Black)

I love Apple products and accessories, they just work! But, in the case of my new IPad Pro 4th generation, Apple’s keyboard/trackpad didn’t measure up to the demands of frequent travel and particularly for its lack of a secure place to stow the Apple Pencil. I was skeptical of the quality and functionality of this product due to its low price. I was skeptical of its ability to securely grip the IPad on the keyboard magnetically, particularly due to the additional protective case around the IPad when its used by itself away from the keyboard. Bottom line: The keyboard, the track pad and the magnetic connection, the separate IPad protection, all perform excellently as designed, and under the rigor of frequent travel. The keyboard case offers solid protection in and out of a soft-sided briefcase. And, the case provides a secure protective slot for the Apple Pencil, while allowing it to remain charged. The case does add significant weight to the IPad, but not greater than carrying a laptop. The case does not require independent charging. The case uses the IPad for power. The keyboard backlight can be turned on/off and adjusted easily. One can charge the IPad normally, or through a USB-C pass-through on the keyboard itself, allowing charging and usage of a USB-C accessory simultaneously. A terrific product at a surprisingly low price. Addendum: After using this product for almost a year--daily use, lots of bumping and tossing into luggage and briefcase--it still performs magnificently. I detect no difference in the keyboard despite the heavy use. The case is still perfect. I love the ability to separate the IPad and then reattach it. It disconnects and reconnects flawlessly.

I wanted a case to protect my iPad Pro but still allowed me to use the smart folio keyboard (not the fancy expensive $300 one - the one that connects magnetically). I gave this product about a week or so before I just got annoyed and returned it. You can’t take screenshots with the case on. I had to remove it so I could depress the volume and power buttons. I take a lot of screenshots, so it was a royal pain. Not to mention it’s ugly as sin, a cheap piece of plastic with magnets. The total cost to make them is probably $0.50 and they charge a whopping $42??? Do yourself a favor and don’t waste you money or the plastic which will now find it’s way to the garbage patch in the Pacific gyre.

Es un plástico que hace muy bien la función de proteger la trasera del iPad y no perder el Pencil. Funciona con el Magic Keyboard a la perfección

El material es de buena calidad. Los acabados son buenos. Se siente resistente y facilita la manipulación. El precio es un poco alto pero vale la pena.

The item is nice quality, works perfectly with my ipad's magicfolio keyboard. I just think it's heavily overpriced considering its a case that only covers 3 sides (yes, I understand why) whilst the covers that cover all sides, including front and back, of similar quality, cost like $20 lol
