The Apple iPad is a beautiful device for many use cases, but it doesn’t replace a laptop on its own. However, using a keyboard case with a trackpad like the Logitech Combo Touch Keyboard case suddenly transforms a “screen reader” into a super-powerful writing device, clearly capable of adding speed and productivity to your workflow.
Setting up the Logitech Combo Touch Keyboard case is literally a snap. You put your iPad into the upper case and then simply connect the keyboard and trackpad to the connector on the iPad. There is no need for any Bluetooth pairing, it simply works. The keyboard is responsive with enough key travel to feel your typing and the wide trackpad is very responsive and configurable as well. There is no secure way to hold an Apple Pencil or Logitech Crayon to the keyboard case, unfortunately. The keyboard is easily removable to have just the case-covered iPad in action. With the keyboard extended and the back stand extended, it does take up a lot of space so you if you have limited table top area or just using your lap, it may be a bit tricky. However, the keyboard case is slim and lightweight, making it a great companion for your iPad (and less expensive than similar Apple products).
