Folio Backlit Keyboard for the Apple iPad Air (Black) is rated 3.9 out of 5 by 561.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from BEST KEYBOARD I bought this keyboard a month ago a little after starting medical school. I was looking for a clamshell and backlight keyobard- which is everything I got for a reasonable price
Date published: 2014-10-17
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fantastic customer service! I love Zagg keyboards - and this is my third one over the years as i have purchased various ipads. I cannot recommend the Zagg ipad keyboard enough - it protects my ipad air and turns it into a real machine for travelling, i never take my laptop anywhere anymore, it can all be done with ipad and zagg - a classic combo...

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It's perfect for what it is. Keyboard/folio case, self-supported, opens like a laptop. Solid construction, won't fall apart from regular use. Protects from minor scratches. Don't drop it too many times, though. It's good, but it's not a true protective case. It's just a very convenient keyboard case. Backlight has multiple colors and brightness levels. Under heavy use, the keyboard with maximum backlighting lasts me about a month per full charge. If you can buy a slip or zipped shell cover to use in conjunction, I would recommend that too.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love my new Zagg Folio Backlit Keyboard Received Zagg Folio Keyboard when promised and I love it. Replaced it because my old Ipad Air cover hinge was not working properly. This one covers both sides and protects my Ipad Air much better. Customer Service was very helpful and attentive to my needs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from First Class Company I purchased my Zagg about 8 months ago and the product is awesome. I use it to take notes out in the field as a Property Manager and Real Estate agent. It's durable, classy and most of all the functionality if perfect for what I do. I would recommend this product to just about anyone who needs a keyboard on the fly.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best I've seen! When iPads first came out and I saw the on screen keyboard, I immediately dismissed it as an option for school. However when I discovered that bluetooth keyboards were an option I started researching and I am so happy with my purchase. This case/keyboard has really turned my iPad Air into a mini laptop. It's just the right size for my hands, it's light and works great! Plus the one year warraty is a blessing! It gets a lot of attention when I use it at school and I rave about it every chance I get. I feel like the case keeps the keyboard and iPad fairly safe but just as a precaution I always carry it in an additional padded case inside my backpack.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Case is wonderful in all aspects I bought this case almost a year ago and besides the one problem the case is very sturdy and easy to operate.
Date published: 2014-10-02
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice design, love the lighted keyboard This is my second great ZAGG keyboard. The first one still functions but doesn't fit my new iPad Air. This keyboard is great in every way. The battery seems to hold a charge forever (at least several months). The only tiny complaint is that one of the rubber bumpers that cushions the unit when it's closed has come off and is lost. If I could suggest one improvement it would be to enable the unit to fold flat when open.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Keyboard! I bought this for my wife and she is extremely happy with it. The case is very sturdy, the keyboard has a great feel, and the backlight for the keys is a big bonus that a lot of other products don't have. The battery life is great. Highly recommend this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The best After I bought a iPad Air I wanted a key board to make it easier to type letters over seas to family but also because I only have one eye I can see with. This one is light and so easy to use it is a pleasure to use it. You can't go wrong buying one and on top of it all it keeps my iPad save with a hard cover.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This Company is the total package! Great quality products at an affordable price. Purchased Zagg keyboard backlit pholio in January. Hinged cracked in September. Received excellent customer service in assisting me in shipping a new product and supplying a return shipping label. When I am using my iPad with the Zagg keyboard case in public I am constantly asked what is the name of the product. Easy to use and reliable!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great product, great function Bought this Zagg for my iPad Air about 6 months ago. Battery life of the keyboard is incredible, backlit keys great, and protection to the iPad is all you need! The case is not slippery, and makes your iPad like a notebook computer. Had a problem with one hinge, and the warrant replacement was fast, easy, and no hassle. Highly recommend this product!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Keyboard Case The Zagg Keyboard is great for the iPad Air. It's easy to pair it with the iPad and it really turns the iPad into a mini Laptop. You have the option to choose different colors for the backlit keyboard which allows you to type in the dark without any problem. The keyboard is very responsive and makes the iPad experience even better. The Zagg case is very light, barely adds any bulk and it protects the iPad with its soft leather cover. I definitely recommend it to anyone.

How to connect the folio to the iPod?

Asked by: Sansu
You'll need to make sure that your iPad's Bluetooth is turned on. Then you'll need to hold down the Bluetooth icon on the folio for about 5 seconds. After that you should see, ZAGG keyboard on your Bluetooth device list. Click that and you are all set!

Hi I had a warranty replacement sent out to me but I have been told that I have to pay the import duty.  Is this correct?

Asked by: Russ873
Typically there could always be custom, import or duty fees, it will depend on the country the package is shipping to. We do state this on all our orders, but when it is a warranty replacement you usually are not charged. I recommend reaching out to ZAGG Customer Support. Here is the link to contact Customer Support. https://support.zagg.com/hc/en-us/categories/201797708-Keyboards Thanks, ZAGG

My standard Apple power cord won't fit through the cutout opening in the cover. Should I have to remove the pad from the case to plug it in or is this a flaw? If it's not a flaw, why would there even be an access cutout for the plug?

Asked by: LTrunner
This would be a flaw. Please look into taking advantage of the 1 year warranty.

For the new iPad Air Zagg folio, can you lay the ipad over the keys to draw on the iPad without pressing on the keyboard's keys?

Asked by: sLp4aLL
No.
Answered by: Breann
Date published: 2013-12-08

When the ipad air is in the case (open), the battery of the ipad is being used (slowly discharging). Is this normal? Isn't the Folio supposed to use its own battery (which is fully charged, green lights), and not use the battery of the ipad?

Asked by: Gamal
The keyboard uses it's own battery and should not drain the battery of your iPad. Bluetooth increases battery use but it should not cause a significant difference.
