ESR iPad Air 13 inch Case Keyboard (M3,2025/M2,2024), iPad Pro 12.9 inch Magic Keyboard, Easy-Set Floating Cantilever Stand, Precision Multi-Touch Trackpad, Rebound Series, Black【NOT for Pro 13】

I was pleasantly surprised by how high-end this keyboard feels. The build quality is excellent — it’s sturdy, responsive, and everything works seamlessly. It has a bit of weight to it, but for me, that’s a plus. It makes the setup feel more stable and grounded, especially when typing or using it on uneven surfaces.One of my favorite features is the ability to change the backlight color of the keys. It adds a personalized and premium touch to the experience. When I place the iPad on it, it locks in so securely that it doesn’t move at all, no matter how much I adjust or shift it. When I close the case, everything stays perfectly in place, almost like the keyboard was made as part of the iPad itself.If I had to point out one minor downside, it’s that the black cover marks easily on the outside — fingerprints or surface marks show up depending on where you place it. The marks do wipe off, but it’s something to be aware of.Overall, this keyboard is absolutely worth it. It elevates the iPad experience and makes it feel like a true laptop replacement. Highly recommended!

It works! The keyboard has a good feel, the magnet holds the iPad securely, the keyboard lights up nicely, trackpad works well. The Apply keyboard has a kickstand which the Surface already showed did not work well on your lap. This keyboard works fine on my lap.Cons: The keyboard on my unit has a slight bend to it. It doesn’t get power from the iPad, you have to power it separately. Because it uses Bluetooth it takes a few seconds to connect to the iPad.Finally, could someone in China please make the old Smart Folio keyboard for Apple iPads. It was thin and light, useful for occasional typing. These new keyboards are so heavy. The iPad + keyboard combo weighs more than an Air.

Love it so far and gets the job done. Biggest downsides are the material catches finger marks/smears too easily and the mousepad is slower than you’d be used to on a laptop. I also wish the function keys were a separate row. That aside: keyboard is responsive with zero issues so far, connects to my iPad Air quickly once it’s on, and the magnet keeps the iPad in place with zero issue. Plus it’s way cheaper than the Apple Magic Keyboard

Using my lovely little ESR keyboard/case combo to type up this review right now. Let’s jump right in!PROS:- Quality: the reason I spent this much money on a case/keyboard combo was for the quality. I wanted something that would last, look good, and feel good. This product checks all those boxes. I don’t think I could’ve found a better item unless I’d purchased from Apple directly.- Look: I purchased the white option and love how clean it looks. The exterior of the case is simply perfect. The magnetic closure looks sleek and isn’t bulky. Interior of the case looks soft and supple. The keyboard is beautiful and the backlight offers x3 light settings that time out after a few minutes spent untouched.- Feel: feels fantastic. The exterior of the case is smooth and matte without being slippery. The keyboard is what sold me - it 100% feels like a quality keyboard. The sound of the clicks are softly muted rather than that cheap clacky sound you get with other keyboards. The keyboard also has a pleasing texture and feels like it would be easy to clean. With my iPad inside and the case closed, it feels solid and has some weight to it, but this makes me believe in it’s durability. I’m confident if I dropped this case my iPad would be protected. One thing I noted is when the case is open and your iPad is in place, the indent that allows the iPad itself to tilt backwards is tight the first few times you move it - don’t be afraid to use a BIT of force to lean your iPad further back so it’s at a slightly more pleasing angle.- In Action: does the job and does it well. My iPad stays firmly in place without any slipping in the slightest. The keyboard is small, obviously, but it didn’t take long to adjust to the key spacing (as is the case with any keyboard). Yes, as other reviews have stated, the power button on the keyboard is slightly annoying in its placement, but I don’t mind it. It’s not like I’m clicking it on/off all the time. It’s a non-issue for me.CONS:- Backlit keyboard: I feel like some of the lights behind the keys are very slightly brighter than others. This is probably due to where the bulbs are placed behind the keys and not because any of the bulbs are faulty. For example, my ‘A’ key looks mildly brighter than my ‘L’ key. I seriously doubt most users would notice it. I didn’t until just now, and it’s not at all significant enough for me to want to return this case.- Mousepad: I feel like I have to press down a little harder on the mousepad to make a selection, vs the pressure I apply on my laptop. Not a significant issue.- Backspace button: slightly smaller than what I would’ve preferred, but again, not significant.WISHES:- Mousepad: I wish the mousepad had the tap-to-select option some laptops have, rather than actually having to press down to hear the click for it to select. This is because the mousepad doesn’t have the little left/right mouse buttons, it’s just a single square. So my mind doesn’t think to press down to select, because there’s no button! It would be nice to simply tap the mousepad and have that be enough to select.Overall I strongly recommend this keyboard.

I have had several keyboard cases on my quest to find the best one for my IPad. I wanted to make a Mini Mac book as i don’t have any need for an actually Mac book. This case is a really really good alternative to the extremely expensive Apple keyboard. Trust me also, don’t go too cheap on the keyboard as I’ve tried everything from the $29 Price range up to this ESR case is the most expensive one i purchased.Pros: Really good Battery life so far, I like how the battery widget will also display the battery life for the keyboard. It’s nice to be able to track the battery life and not have it just die randomly like the others I purchased. The track pad is really responsive, i figured out how to turn on the Tap-to-Click feature and so far it’s been great. Other cheaper keyboards I purchased the track pads would laaaaaagggg which I hated.I only have two complaints with this product, 1st: I wish the screen tilted back just a little more, If I’m typing for work and I’m not at a desk I have to try and find a counter that is higher so its not a weird angle to be looking. 2nd: I have had to retrain myself to type because my fingers bang into the bottom of the IPad pretty much the entire time i type. At first I was really not happy however over time i have improved my typing and the amount of impacts are decreasing with time, i wish the special characters line was its own dedicated line instead of mixed in with the numbers. It’s only a slightly annoyance but if you’re changing the volume a lot you will have to keep using the “FN” key to do it.Overall it’s a great keyboard, I use my IPad pretty much all day long at work so I needed something that can hold up to this. I’ll update as it ages also
