While it’s technically possible to write on
an iPad, for most people, laptops are still the writing machine of choice. It
is all about the keyboard because a virtual keyboard simply can’t cut it. Enter
the Logitech Tablet Keyboard for the iPad. Like Apple’s own white Bluetooth
keyboard, Logitech’s keyboard is a standalone Bluetooth device that can
technically be used with any computer.
Lots of batteries
The first impression of the Bluetooth
keyboard was good too bad it didn’t last long after holding it. The keyboard
feels heavy and it doesn’t really fall into the conveniently portable category.
As for the design, it looks great in black and seems to match well with Apple’s
minimalist theme. The Bluetooth keyboard runs on batteries instead of using a
charger, which means users have to spend more time changing batteries. Not two,
not three but four AAA batteries to change.
IOS buttons
It is comfortable typing with Logitech
Keyboard and the keys are very responsive. It manages to handle fast typing very
well. This review is being written by the same keyboard! The keys aren’t too
small and there is plenty of space to work with. Other than that, it has a set
of iOS -specific buttons that allows users to quit an app or wake/sleep the iOS
device. Too bad it doesn’t allow users to navigate the home screen with the
directional buttons. Them there’s the keyboard’s ingenious convertible case.
Just open it up and a small plastic stand for portrait or landscape mode. The
angle can be adjusted as well for comfortable viewing angles.
