Theoretically, yes you are correct. However, I think I have charged mine three times in over a year of use (sporadic use over the last few months, as I have been using two or three others). The battery will likely last for several years of normal use before it discharges to a point where it is no longer works. In other words, you will probably have moved on to something else by then.

I checked with them on this a few weeks ago. It is just a little bit deeper to account for the thicker back of the New iPad. That’s the only difference.

Funny you should mention this, because I am starting to work on an article that touches on this particular topic. That really depends on the user and their needs. It wouldn’t work for me all the time, but I am finding ways to do more and more of my common tasks with the iPad instead of my laptop. Stay tuned, and maybe some oft tips will help you.

Hi,
Great review. I am considering buying this keyboard and dropping the laptop altogether? As a person who writes every day, would you consider this as a good/feasible option?
Thanks for answering.

Sorry to hear that Mr Bowman. I have a screen protector, as well, but haven’t had that particular issue. I do have marks from the two rubber feet, but fortunately those are on the bezel, and not the screen.

If you like the keyboard, the redesigned Logitech Bluetooth has the same design, but shouldn’t cause problems with your screen protector.

The only one I can think of off the top of my head is Apple’s original iPad Keyboard, which works off the dock connector. It isn’t the best or most portable option, but it does work without Bluetooth.

There has actually been a complete re-design of this keyboard. It is now the same layout with spaces keys as the ZAGGKEYsolo and ZAGGfolio keyboards. Logitech evidently requested this of ZAGG after seein those designs.

I had a similar issue. A friend was over playing with my iPad, and insisted on turning off the keyboard “to save the battery, since it has such a short life”. The keyboard did not auto-connect upon turning it on.

Go into Settings -> General -> Bluetooth. It may say “On”, but I found I needed to click on Bluetooth, and then click on the line that says “Logitech Keyboard Case” in order to get the keyboard to connect/work.

Also, like Jorn, my new keyboard has the logo and buttons reversed, and no triangel thing. I purchased mine from Zagg on Amazon just a couple weeks ago. Also, my status light is green not blue.

Sorry to hear that, sbird. I have owned several different ZAGG Bluetooth keyboards, including both versions of the Logitech Bluetooth Keyboard Case and the ZAGGfolio. I have never had any connections issues with any of them. I have heard of a couple here and there from commenters here and from others, but nothing widespread. Any manufacturer is going to have a few bad apples. I would definitely recommend you return it to the retailer or to ZAGG for a replacement. I think it would be unlikely that you would get two bad ones in a row.

If you still want to buy it, think, do I really need this? I know for some people this could be quite useful! but if you want to get it for a high school student, dont. Most of us just use our ipad for fun, we perfer doing our homework on actual computers.

And please dont call me spoiled brat, I am simply just not very happy with my christmas present.
