“The stand works great for school, either on a desk or in my lap,” they add. “I’ve had this keyboard for nearly a year, and have only charged it three times,” begins one reviewer, who says they use it almost daily in academic classes.

Another initially skeptical reviewer says, “The keyboard synced with my iPad on the first try with the included instructions so setup couldn’t have been easier.” The keyboard’s long battery life, which lasts up to 60 days on one charge, and its magnetic cover-slash-stand also received praise. Pairing to my devices took less than 30 seconds,” they say. Owners of iPads of all sizes rave about this keyboard, with more than 150 five-star reviewers describing the Bluetooth pairing as “easy,” including one customer who “despises” checking their email on their iPhone or iPad and can now “quickly respond to emails and keep on with my day without missing a beat.

Says one of them, “I still haven’t changed the batteries from when I bought it months ago, and I use it all the time as I’m a full-time student.”

“The keyboard is a nearly full-size QWERTY device, and I am easily able to use my typing skills, allowing my fingers to keep up with my brain,” writes one reviewer, while another says: “This paired with my iPad saved over $1,000 because I didn’t have to go buy a computer.” More than 10 percent of reviewers also mention the exceptional battery life on this wireless keyboard. Also, the command keys on the bottom of the keyboard are laid out like an Apple laptop (making my life way easier!).” Others rave that this pairs seamlessly with their Apple products, and essentially turns their iPad into a laptop. “This is a great little keyboard that’s definitely made for Apple products - the function bar across the top has functionality for screenshots, iTunes, brightness, and sleep mode. “I needed a cost-effective solution when the smart keyboard for my iPad stopped connecting after about two years of use,” writes one reviewer who says they couldn’t be happier they went with this one.
