11.0 Pro+ Wireless Keyboard with Trackpad | Compatible with iPad Pro 11-inch (1st, 2nd & 3rd Gen) | Native Multi-Touch Trackpad | Backlit Keys | (Space Gray)

I researched a bunch of these keyboards and was minutes away from buying the Apple Magic keyboard. So glad I didn’t. Also really glad I didn’t go with the cheaper sub $100 models. I absolutely need a trackpad and the cheaper models reviews were heart breaking. The Magic gets good reviews but it is an Apple product and once you are in the orchard you tend to stay there. I would know. Anyway Michelle Nyugen has a really great article in Wall Street Journal, How to turn your iPad into a Laptop, or something like that. And she mentions this keyboard. But I ignored all that journalism and objectivity and focused on the Apple brand. But luckily I snapped out of it. I needed something that I could use on my lap, the Magic Keyboard sucks for that, the Brydge is fanastic. I needed a top notch trackpad, this one is awesome. What I didn’t know is Brydge brought all the familiar MacOS shortcuts over. So all the keyboard shortcuts I am used to, work perfectly. I am at the top of the learning curve, that’s sweet. The keys have a nice travel, great feel and an oh-so-satisfying click. The backlight is great. Very bright and the top row of keys are all function keys specifically tailored to iPadOS. So nice. I got used to the keyboard so fast I forgot my iPad Pro was an iPad and got surprised when I touched the screen and stuff happened! I have to be 100% mobile so having this keyboard and a cellular enabled iPad Pro is perfect for me. Happy Happy Joy Joy

I have the twin to this keypad case, I just bought this one as a backup for my less than 6 month old iPad Pro. I intend to keep this ipad for a long time, and at some point the keypad case in use will probably give out, so this is my backup. Why, you ask? For $18, why not? This case arrived in original packaging, looking totally new. I charged it up, mostly to verify that it would charge, and then I put it in a drawer, awaiting use at some point in the future. These are great keypad cases, excellent key 'feel' and lighting if you so choose, and I am not seeing any delay in the keypad connecting via Bluetooth so I don't lose the first character or two as i type, as I have with other cases in the past.

...there are three issues that are unsettling: First, it's recommended to remove an existing screen protector to avoid undue pressure on the screen where the hinges clamp onto the iPad. It makes sense to do so, but now I have to give up a texture that I liked--the screen protector I had allowed my fingers to easily glide on the tablets surface; the "natural" texture isn't anywhere near as slick so I'm not thrilled with the au naturale texture. Second, the iPad sits so low in the hinges that I'm unable to dismiss a screen/close an app by swiping up from the bottom--I have to pull the iPad up a minimum of 4mm to be able to do so, but that also means the top of the iPad now juts out 4mm over the edge of the keyboard; the overhang is surely to incur damage somehow. Third, there are two, rubber "bumpers" on the keyboard that prevent the iPad's screen from becoming damaged by it resting on keyboard's keys. In my experience with MacBooks, those nubs eventually scratch the screen from repeated opening and closing, so I wonder that now that I'm sans screen protector, whether that'll happen, too. I had a Logitech Slim Portfolio cover before and it hadn't gone wonky with its E and L keys frequently flaking out I would've kept it; it's because of Logitech's poor customer service in resolving the matter that I decided to try the Brydge keyboard. However, I'm having second thoughts about keeping it, especially with the too-low-bezel issue. I suppose I could use keyboard commands to accomplish the dismissal of active apps, but I shouldn't have to modify my behavior on account of a design flaw.

Heed the warnings in the negative reviews, the rubber around the hinges comes apart after just a few months, and since that’s the only thing that protects your iPad from the metal hinges themsevels as well as the only thing that secures your ipad in place, the whole thing becomes useless once those begin to fail. The trackpad is responsive and accurate, and the keyboard is great, but those things don’t matter if luck of the draw determines whether or not it lasts longer than a couple of months.

Do a Google search Brydge and Brydge Connect for plenty of info for you BEFORE ordering. These are great keyboards with a limited lifespan. My first one lasted just under a year, after conversation with support I was sent a replacement. It lasted a little over 3 years then failed. I ordered another figuring the great price would be fine even with the possibility of a short life. The first thing they ask is that you update firmware wth the app. I already had that but it was non functional. Went to the App Store to check for update. Nope, it is totally gone. The new keyboard board connected right up with Bluetooth and seems to be working fine, but no way to know how old the inventory is that is currently being liquidated at a very good price. Or, how long it may last. Its mighty good for under 40 bucks. Never found anything close to it over the years.

So far it's a great product. Works seemlessly.

Great

Design fantastico e tutto sommato la cover è abbastanza pratica. Tuttavia ha un grandissimo difetto: i "ganci" che servono da supporto per l'ipad. Ho dovuto fare il reso in quanto avevo paura che si potesse rompere lo schermo del dispositivo (tra l'altro non era perfettamente compatibile con l'ipad, non si inseriva fino in fondo). Consiglio eventualmente di comprare la versione nuova che ha l'attacco magnetico e non c'è nessuna pressione sullo schermo.

Ich habe die Tastatur für 50€ erwerben können. In diesem Preisbereich macht man nicht viel falsch. Die Tasten funktionieren 1a. Apples multigesten sind möglich. Multitouch auf dem trackpad ebenfalls Die Tasten Beleuchtung funktioniert auch sehr gut. Am Ende des Tages fühlt sich die Tastatur dadurch an wie ein Notebook im Apple Gewand. Viele sprechen von Qualitätsproblemen oder schlechter Haltbarkeit. Das kann ich so nicht bestätigen, aus meiner Sicht passt das so und wird lange halten. Lediglich das trackpad finde ich Von Druckpunkttaster zu klein und ich hätte mir den druckpunkt höher vorgestellt.

Pros: + a trackpad that supports all hand gestures + good keys and good layout + handles rotation up to 180 + Holds the iPad tight and securely YMMV: . Heavy, but gives a sturdy design, so it's a matter of preference . Battery life without backlight is decent(I have been a week without a charge), but apparently only 20 hours or so with backlight Cons: - Magnetic cover for iPad can come off fairly easily - Puts a lot of pressure on the screen and can break it if you have a screen protector Overall, I like it and I think I prefer it to the Smart Keyboard. It offers a trackpad for half the price of the magic keyboard. I am very satisfied with my purchase and I am happy that iPad Pro now doubles as a Laptop with a tactile screen.
