Decent keyboard but not typewriter key placement
The pros to this keyboard is that it is responsive in regards to auto connection. Also it is light and the iPad 6th generation fits snug. I also like the 2 different viewing angles. The big con for me is that I am a good typist and expect the position of the keys to be correct. At first I thought this was the case but as I took this on a trip and took copious notes, there are 4 or more keys out of place. That creates a problem when you are typin... Show More

Good quality; not the best for the price.
This is a good keyboard. Its easy to set up and the battery life is amazing. After one month of use I have found it very convenient. Alongside my iPad, I replaced my macbook as my main device to carry around. The keys are big enough to be type long documents. I bought this keyboard for my iPad 6 because it seemed to be the one with the best quality among other options I found in the market. Although the quality is good, I find it expensive. The ...

Works with 6th Gen. iPad 9.7 too!
I did quite a lot of research on this one, wanting a keyboard/case for my 6th gen. iPad I just bought. I went on the Belkin website and checked for a 6th gen. keyboard/case and found this one. When I compared the product number with this 5th gen. one on B&H they matched, so I took the plunge. B&H was $25 less than direct from Belkin with no shipping or tax. When the keyboard/case arrived I was delighted that my iPad 6 gen. fit it perfectly. No, it does not have a pen holder, but I don't care about that. The keyboard works great and the look is excellent! I am totally happy.

Finally, a Belkin kbd case for iPad 9.7 non-pro
I waited for nearly a year, and accidentally order a keyboard case for the iPad 9.7 Pro. Now i finally found one for fhe 5th Gen 9.7. Even though its only available in black, I leapt on it. And finally my wife has agreed to leave her 2nd gen iPad and start using the new one. This keyboard is lighter weight than its older counterpart, but seems sturdy enough. It pairs easily and works well. I do wish it had been available sooner and that it were available in white, but it still deserves a high rating. At $99, its pricey, but the quality and fit make that tolerable.

Plastic holder cracks, but it is functionality remains.
This is my second QODE keyboard. I like them for the slimness and light weight. The first one cracked around the camera and volume button openings, which I didnt like, but it didnt affect functionality. This one looks like the case may be a little thicker, so I am hoping it will hold up better. I replaced the last one after 4 or 5 years because some keys fell off and the foldable hinge lost most of its rubberized covering and had to be supported with duct tape, but it still worked, just no longer aesthetically pleasing.

A Few Issues But Pretty Good
Im not thrilled with the placement of the colon/semicolon key (right of the spacebar) and I keep hitting the Enter key when I want a quotation mark. But other than that, its great. I had the QODE keyboard for my old iPad Air2 and loved it; this one is almost but not quite as good.... I really wish I could take the iPad holder part off and put it on the old keyboard since I still have it (not an option).

I love this thing
This cover/keyboard is so superior to the one I had for my old iPad that I can't even compare. It is lighter and most of all the iPad never comes crashing down from the cover. The old one had only a magnetic strip that the edge of the iPad fit in. The iPad fell about every 10 minutes. Yes, sometimes all on it's own with no one near it. the keys are well spaced too. A must if you use your iPad a lot.

Flimsy and fell apart quickly
The only positive part of this keyboard case was the fact that I got it about half off. However, it only lasted about 9 weeks before the corners started chipping. At week 10, the magnets completely broke from the plastic housing and the case was just useless and in pieces. Pass on this and get another case.

Great little keyboard
Like the keyboard. Touch on keypad is great and case is very sturdy and should hold up well. Only issue is some keys are located in different spot than on regular keyboard, so that takes getting used to. Wish it was the regular qwerty setup, but other than that its a great little keyboard.

Good Keyboard option
This is my first Ipad. This keypad seems sturdy and works well - no problems after using it for 2 months. It is a little heavy, but I guess that is necessary.
