Soo disappointed to hear that, same issues multiple generations in with no signs of intention to remedy the problem. Even more so since it is one of the best options out there keyboard and trackpad wise, glad to hear you were able to get a refund at least.

@taaka6631Ай бұрын
The esr keyboard is pretty bad. The trackpad lags and glitches everytime every 2 mins or when you press a key (it might be because it uses bluetooth and not the smart connector), and its very heavy. I think the magic keyboard is the only good keyboard for the ipad at this point but i refuse to pay $300 for a tablet keyboard. I feel like apple planned this so people get convinced to buy the Magic keyboard or something because no other keyboard can use the smart connector except Logitech and the issues with the Logitech combo touch just feel like planned obsolesce. I guess im not using any keyboard then
@salocin900928 күн бұрын
Damn, kinda disappointed to hear that cause I was considering picking one up. I guess I'll stick to the used Smart Keyboard Folio I got off marketplace for cheap until a good alternative appears. I do wish Apple would refresh their iPad keyboard only cases, imagine how thin a new Smart Keyboard Folio and M4 iPad Pro combo could be. Sad Apple insists that the iPad needs a track pad after 10+ years of touch first interface optimisation.

hows gaming on a bigger screen? is the gpu enough to push 4k even?
@salocin900928 күн бұрын
Gaming on the bigger screen is nice, I mostly do it when I need keyboard and mouse input. Unfortunately its not strong enough to game at 4K (mabe only in the most basic games), you'll mostly be playing at 1080p. However for everything else (youtube, emails, typing up documents, excel etc) it is 4K capable, movie night with it hooked up to the TV are smooth sailing.

Yes I’ve heard the same about esr, that built in battery enables Bluetooth but also adds weight to the keyboard part. Though if you are worried about how heavy it will be while holding just the iPad without the keyboard it’s prolly the same as the Logitech one with keyboard detached, so you’d only maybe feel the little bit of extra weight in your bag, not while holding the iPad without your hands if that makes sense.

I also have the rubber issues, and it’s really doing my head in! It’s not aesthetically pleasing. They could’ve tried to have it attack with magnets without the rubber edges like the apple magic folio keyboard. I have the iPad Pro 12’9 from 2022, so I wouldn’t be able to buy the magic folio with the kickstand version. A kickstand case is my go to, as it’s so flexible and doesn’t take up much space on my desk.
@salocin90095 ай бұрын
Yep it sucks, even worse is that they advertise the wrap around design as a feature that makes it more rugged. Rugged would be protecting the device and the case itself, this is kamikaze. At least now the market has matured to the point where there are other options. The Magic Folio Keyboard is beautiful but it wouldn’t work on iPad Air and Pro without a redesign due to the Smart Connector being in a different location. I’d love to see Apple’s take on a Smart Keyboard Folio Gen 2 with trackpad, something that doesn’t force me to remove the iPad from the keyboard to use on its own.

Actually, almost all detachable keyboards I have used in the past have had the same problems. For example, I had to replace my MS Surface Alcantara keyboard twice in two years. My father used a Magic Keyboard, but the leather on the sides deteriorated after two years, and the three-pin connection had many issues. Learning from these experiences, I now buy a very cheap keyboard from Nillkin for just $63. The materials are not premium and feel cheap, but for the price, I can replace it every year without spending much money. Just buy a cheap detachable keyboard because there are no durable detachable keyboards out there.
