This keyboard is very comfortable to type on, and the touchpad is smooth when using gestures. It's great to carry around and use for school or work. All the function keys work to control the iPad's volume, brightness, etc. The backlight keyboard works well and can even change color. The home key is fantastic for switching between apps. The magnet that holds the keyboard is strong in both landscape and portrait mode. The only downside is that the flip cover doesn't have a sleep mode function.
