ipad new version (no2)Pro's- robust enough in order to keep it light weight.- Very light, good for travel, commuting, college etc..- size is approx half width of my ipad 5 and approx same length.- Takes seconds to set up... so so easy, straight forward- holds 3 connections, so can easily switch over from mac, ipad and iphone with press of a button.- batteries are tiny coin ones, so keeps it lighter and thinner in size & meant to last a very long time.- no lag on typing, super responsive.- protective lid is handyCons- Bit too expensive ! double the price of the previous logi keyboard- need to be a bit more careful with it, as so light and thin- colour is slightly grey white, would of preferred bright white.- world button doesn't open internet, instead opens the emoji menu!! ?-------------Also bought a pebble 350 mouse, again quick to link, but have to re-link to each device, each time. So easy to use and works well on apple ipad and mac.

This is a lovely little bit of kit that pairs with any tablet or phone. ( I am using it to type this review paired with a Samsung Android tablet.) The keys are quite responsive and pleasant to use. It is the same size as my 10.1 tablet and very thin and light. I like the feel of the rubbberised surface and was keen to have something sealed from spills, crumbs etc. I am not an expert typist but am able to get up quite a good level of speed and reasonable accuracy with this. It was quite easy to set up too.I decided to get this as I didn't want the weight or expense of a tablet / keyboard case or being faced with having to buy one for each of my devices. This definitely fits the bill for the occasional keyboard user, being reasonably priced, light and perfectly portable. If I was using a keyboard 24/7 I would go for a full sized model rather than this because I think this is a bit too small to comfortably use for many hours on end but it is great for someone like me to rattle off a few reviews and emails.So far I have found a couple of irritating flaws with it. The quotation marks and @ symbols are not where they are shown on the keyboard, being transposed and it is worth propping it up to use comfortably, as angled is a far better and quieter position to use it from than flat. Although it is remarkably quiet and unrattly to operate. There are very few instructions enclosed except for some rather poorly done illustrations - of the kind that are only of use if you already know what you should be doing - and no specs. This could be better. I will update this review after I have used it for a few months so can comment on battery life and if any other glitches emerge.I had done a lot of research before deciding to buy this and am pleased with it. Okay, it is not perfect but ticks a lot of boxes for me. Small, lightweight, portable, connecting across the spectrum of devices, cheap - when compared to a branded keyboard case. It definitely suits my kind of usage and budget.

Summary: light and thin, making this the best portable keyboard for use with an iPhone or iPad.I wanted a keyboard to carry around with a phone, and occasionally use with an iPad. I really don’t want a ‘keyboard-case’. I love the Apple wireless keyboard, and use this with a incase ‘origami’, but that combination is over half a kilo - it’s not ‘casually portable’.So, based on research (discounting smaller, case-style, or heavy keyboards), ordered three keyboards: Logitech Keys to Go, Microsoft’s mobile keyboard, Microsoft’s Wedge keyboard. Wedge is fantastic, but heavy, the mobile keyboard too small (and fairly heavy).Logitech’s the winner - by a long shot. It’s incredibly thin and light (this, plus iPad Air 2, fits in an older iPad case, for example), and the keys have been laid out well - there’s been some good thinking applied here.# Bad:1 - Caps lock above shift - I keep hitting caps lock while typing…I’d rather a ‘long press’.2 - Single Bluetooth profile. I swopped between 3 iOS devices while travelling, and had to spend quite a bit of time deleting and re-pairing.3 - Depth is a little longer than ideal - I can't comfortably hold the unit in one hand.# Good:1 - Shortcut keys - fantastic. As a long-time Apple Wireless keyboard user, I’d not had the spotlight search, running apps view (i.e. double click view), and ‘home’ - incredibly useful. If only Apple mapped ‘cmd+tab’ to 4 finger swipe gesture in iOS, I’d be in heaven.2 - Weight - also fantastic. Makes carrying this around a no-brainer, and you don’t regret taking it with you, even it doesn’t get used that much.3 - Thinness - great; as thin as an iPad Air 2. Thinness also means a lot for portability. I was able to carry this in the back pocket of my jeans. Not advised for long-term carry, but when you need to free up hands, invaluable.4 - Key action - surprisingly good. I’d read review that said it was ‘mushy’, but I actually like it. Not as nice to type on as a ‘proper’ keyboard, but there’s pleasant, usable key travel.5 - Key width - pretty good. Mirrors Apple keyboard layout pretty much perfectly - good design choices on which keys to shrink, etc. Easy to type on. Spacing’s good. The keys are smaller width than the iPad keyboard, but there’s not much in it. See the photos for comparison.# Ideas (hey Logitech - if you’re listening…):1 - Extend power switch so you could 'slide' onto a second or third profile.2 - Would a version without the ‘skin’ have improved typing experience? (although I wonder if the skin provides tensile strength?)3- I’d like larger keys. This would require a longer/wider keyboard...that would be fine with me - more width could likely reduce the depth to maintain same battery mass.
