I have always been a big fan of the Logitech combo touch keyboards. I used one for years with my 11 inch iPad Pro. It worked perfectly all the time. And I love the fact that the keyboard detaches when you want it to. (You can’t do that with the Apple magic keyboard, and therefore I feel like the Logitech solution is simply better.) When I got my 13 inch iPad Pro M4, I held off on getting the combo touch because I wanted to keep the iPad as light as possible. That certainly did the trick using a simple front and back cover. The one that I used was the. Pitaka case. It’s better than Apple‘s case because it has more prop up options due to its origami structure. Fast forward to a couple months ago. I decided to get the new Logitech combo touch keyboard for my 13 inch iPad. Having done so, I am once again completely an enamored of this case. It works absolutely perfectly, and adds a whole new level of functionality to using the iPad. I always knew this, but I knew it would make the unit weigh more, but in my opinion, it is well worth it. I love the fact that the iPad is protected on all edges. I love the fact that the keyboard is back lit and the action on the keys is excellent. On the 13 inch iPad, the Querty keyboard is full-size. It’s very luxurious to use. You can do all the keyboard command, and trackpad tricks very easily on this device. I am currently running the beta version of iPadOS 26. Just a little heads up, this OS is a game changer for the iPad. Multi screen management will be taking a giant leap forward with this OS. The iPad will now behave much more like a MacBook. File management is way better. And the keyboard shortcuts are even more enabled in this new version of the operating system. This just helps to add to the functionality and value of this keyboard. I love the fact that the new version of the combo touch for the pro is black. It’s super cool looking. But keep in mind, this case is a huge fingerprint magnet. It fingerprints like crazy. You will have to accept that with the material they chose to make this out of. You can clean it up pretty easily though with a dampened static cloth so it’s not the end of the world. 😊 Overall I cannot recommend this keyboard case enough. It is absolutely fantastic. Oh, and one other great advantage to this particular keyboard case is that the kickstand technology enables you to set up the screen at a very shallow angle if you want to draw or paint on it. Again, you cannot do that with the Apple keyboard. Read more

I had a case like this on my M1 iPad Pro, so when I got the 13 inch M4 iPad Pro I decided to stick with Logitech for my case. The design of this case emulates the Microsoft Surface and Surface keyboard, providing a kickstand for the iPad and a removable keyboard. I do feel the price is outrageous, but there aren’t many quality options when it comes to cases in this design. This updated version functions better - the trackpad is larger and does not randomly stop working like the older version did, and the case feels less flimsy that the older version. The keyboard feels a little more comfortable to use, and the back lighting is much better as well - there seems to be more steps in brightness and the backlight adjusts with the automatic brightness on the screen. There is still a bug from the prior version of this case where the back lighting doesn’t always come back on after going to sleep while open. Pressing the brightness buttons will turn the back light on again, but I do feel this is an oversight. Installation is mildly anxiety inducing because you have to use some force to get the case on the iPad, but I managed to do it without breaking anything; just follow the instructions in the box. Some other cases just attach with magnets to the rear of the iPad, but by wrapping around the frame of the iPad this case provides more protection. I certainly wouldn’t try dropping my iPad in this case, but I feel confident that my iPad is protected while in my bag. One thing I dislike about this case is the material used on the exterior. The exterior portion which sits on the rear of the keyboard is a smooth plastic (or maybe metal? I can’t decide) which is prone to marring and fingerprints, while the exterior on the rear of the iPad is more rubbery feeling, akin to the official folio cases. The older version of this Logitech case used a fabric material on all portions of the exterior and for the wrist rest, and I definitely preferred that design over this. I carry a regular iPad from work in the same pouch as my M4 in my work bag, and the rubber feet on the work iPad’s case have marked up this Logitech case like a gym floor. This case, only being available in black was also a disappointment, but at least it’s a neutral color. There does seem to be slightly more noticeable battery drain from the keyboard on this version of the case versus the original, but you can always turn off the back light reduce power draw from the iPad.

I had an earlier generation of this product for the iPad Air. It was incredible. Extremely functional, sturdy, better in every way than the official apple keyboard, and cheaper too. Naturally, when I got a new iPad Pro I bought the latest combo touch. Everything about this product has gone down except the price, which has nearly doubled. It's poorly made. The case was already falling apart when I took it out the box brand new. The materials do NOT inspire confidence at all. Everything feels flimsy and cheap, despite being heavy. Moreover, this thing collects grease and fingerprints all over the place. It looks absolutely disgusting, and I've barely even used it. I am so disappointed. And unfortunately the ONLY alternative is Apple's even more expensive keyboard, which actually offers LESS functionality since it doesn't include a case like this logitech product. What a disappointment. Logitech, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? All they had to do was make another version of what they already had. That they even released this is shocking. Read more
