This keyboard is very convenient: it turns into a wink your iPad Air in mini laptop. It's thin, light, and the keys are spaced to type comfortably. Besides, I use this keyboard now to write this review. To close the iPad, it is placed in the hinge of the keyboard, which is equipped with powerful magnets. The ipad air switches off automatically and the keyboard protects the screen. The keyboard is provided with a notch to put ipad semi-vertical position, as a PC. The notch is not magnetic, but it is deep enough for the iPad is very stable, in landscape or portrait position. Parcontre, it is best used on a table rather than in bed! The Bluetooth connection also turns on only if the air ipad is in the slot. The battery of the keyboard according to the instructions, from 6 months on a single charge! I do not know if that's true, but it's been five days since I use it regularly, and I did not need to recharge yet. There are no "Ctrl" key on the keyboard, but instead the "Fn" key (eg to replace the Ctrl C and Ctrl V to copy and paste). There is also no touchpad; but quickly pass through that ipad itself is tactile. Several special keys above the keyboard are useful: a button to return to the Home screen of the ipad (equivalent of the big button on the iPad), another button will bring up all the applications already open to the iPad and navigate from one to the other, etc ... I regret that the caps lock key has no little light to see if it is switched on or not. I have a friend who has the same kind logitech keyboard, but for iPad 4. It was delighted and uses it every day .: he replaced his PC, he hardly uses more! Parcontre the logitech keyboard for iPad Air is apparently much less (check the comments on amazon.com to convince you, if you read English) I am very pleased with this keyboard, which I find much more convenient and enjoyable as Qode Belkin keyboard. The only complaint I could make is that it is better to avoid this kind of protection (very ridiculous) when you have children: in fact the iPad is "naked" when placed on the keyboard, and next to small children, it's a little disturbing. I recommend.
