Logitech Keyboard Case for iPad 2, what you need to know

Grow with Dr Prem

The keyboard case for iPad 2 by Logitech is smart and sleek looking and is designed and developed by ZAGG. It is made of aircraft grade aluminum and has integrated Bluetooth. The iPad 2 can be put inside face down when not in use and the case comes bundled with a USB charging cable. There has been a marked improvement in of the fonts used on the keys and the body of the case. The standard keys like Home Screen, Screen Saver, Keyboard, Volume track control and lock buttons are all there along with some additional keys for cut, copy and paste feature. The brightness control are missing, though. There are indeed a lot of similarities with the ZAGG version of the keyboard.

Features

The case has a holder that can easily fit the iPad 2 in landscape or portrait mode. The landscape mode gives you the feel of a laptop. The screen seems to be a bit too high in landscape mode so it will be a good idea to place something behind the iPad 2. The case is made from metal without any palm rests and this might pose a problem for those who will type a lot.

The Logitech Keyboard case for iPad 2 was designed to be portable so some may feel that the keyboard is too small to rest both the hands at the same time. However, for some people, this is not an issue at all. The iPad 2 sits securely on the keyboard and it will be hard to snap it off. You must go through the instruction manual carefully before using this product.

High Points

The keyboard case has a lightweight design and very well constructed. The keyboard is compact though some may find the keys to be a bit small. The keyboard case acts as a very good travel case and it will be easy to carry the iPad2 in this. There are no major battery issues as it uses the popular 510mAh battery. The aluminum cover offers great durability and protection when you are traveling with it. The rubber material above the keyboard offers enough padding and protection. The case weighs 12.2 ounces and does not add much to the thickness of the iPad2.

Low Points

The biggest disadvantage of this case are the keys. Since it is not a full sized keyboard, the the keys are very cramped. Again, the case has no protection for the back side of iPad2. Also it is not very easy to put in and take out the iPAd2 from the case when you are commuting. We do admit that these are genuine drawbacks of the case but they are not serious enough to give a poor rating to this product. In reality, the Logitech Keyboard case almost delivers everything it promises.

Price

The Logitech Keyboard case is already available in different stores and online too in major websites like Amazon.com. The price is around $69.99 which is quite reasonable considering the goodwill of the company and the features it offers.
