ESRiPad Air 11 Inch Case with Keyboard (M3/M2, 2025/2024) & iPad Pro 11/Air 5th/4th Gen Keyboard, Easy-Set Magnetic Stand, Portrait/Raised Modes, with Removable Protective Case, Black

I am going to compare how I feel about this case to the product it is likely duping, the Magic Keyboard. I have never owned the product, but I have owned numerous Apple products, and I got some thoughts...The ESR case is wickedly good quality. The case has a satisfying, velvety smooth finish, and the keys are responsive and nicely spaced. I usually make lots of typos with these bluetooth keyboards, but this one is designed very nicely, for me. The whole aesthetic of the product is cool, and you can't beat the value vs the genuine article.The inclusion of a silicone case is a MASSIVE boon, and the main reason I chose the ESR over all other cases. Since I hate leaving the edges of the iPad unprotected in my bag, no other case would tick all the boxes. This, in my opinion, is the best that you can get for the aesthetic and the build quality.One con I can mention is that the weight of the iPad is substantially increased when using both parts of the case. If you were, say, also carrying a laptop or a lot of books with you, I would recommend not taking the entire setup with you, and picking between the silicone case or the keyboard and leaving the other behind.For those in the know, the Apple Pencil Pro loves this case. Despite all my other former 11" iPad cases causing issues when writing/drawing, this one plays very nicely with it. I have not experienced any issues, and hope it stays that way.I am so stoked to be able to stop looking for a case that will work for my needs. If you like the form factor of this case, and don't care about your keyboard charging your iPad or whatever, I say get this case. The value is unmatched. I see myself using this pretty much every day.

I'm sure you have the same dilemma as I am., Debating whether I should buy the Apple Magic Keyboard (MKB) or the ESR Hybrid Case. Price is always an issue for MKB, plus ESR has the 6th row of keys (that MKB doesn't have) and the case to protect the iPad.The overall build is solid, robust, and looks premium. The craftsmanship is superb. The case fits tightly to the iPad Air M2 13-inch. Every hole lines up perfectly. The Bluetooth connection is fast. As soon as you turn it on, it connects to your iPad instantly. The magnet is strong. The keyboard is exactly like what a keyboard should do. Nothing to lush about...you know like on the YouTube reviewer.. "ooo it's so comfortable to type." Yeah... it's a keyboard, not buying underwear people. The touchpad is responsive. (I changed the sensitivity to 75% so it is a bit faster to respond). The only minor glitch, sometimes the click on the touchpad, won't register the click. I'm sure this is more of a user error. since I only spent using it for 2 weeks.Weight-wise, yes it is a bit heavy. I felt like the same weight as my MacBook Pro 14-inch M3 Pro. But that's to be expected. If you want to use the keyboard, you'll have to deal with the weight. I plan to use my iPad as a laptop wannabe, so weight won't be an issue. Besides, for me, the iPad Air M2 13-inch isn't a featherweight either in the first place. But your use might be different.A SMALL TIP: The flap that you fold when you close the keyboard, can be used to store your apple pencil when you are using the keyboard (if you don't want to put the pencil on the charge mode). I found this accidentally. During the keyboard use, the flap has a magnet that can be folded and stuck to the back of the folio. You can stick your Apple pencil on the fold there. The magnet is strong enough that the Apple Pencil safely be tucked in there.OVERALL: I like everything about this keyboard. The price, the craftsmanship, the trackpad, the keyboard, the 6th row of keys, the material, the build quality, the case, the magnetic strength, and the Bluetooth instant connection. It's a good bargain for the money. And a great 3rd party replacement for MKB.However, with a heavy heart, I had to return it and opted to buy Apple MKB and swallow the $350. The reason. is not because the ESR wasn't good, but it's because I like to use the KUXIU magnetic folded arm iPad stand that I already had. I found it too much of a hassle to take the iPad in and out of the case to change between them. I just don't like the case will be pressing the volume button/power button every time I put the iPad back in the case because the case fits snuggly. So it's more about convenience and the ecosystem of accessories that I already have, rather than the quality of the product. I almost want to just keep it. But on second thought, it would just be a waste of money, since I only have one 13-inch iPad.Even though I ended up returning, I still recommend this case. It's the closest thing to Apple MKB with the bonus of getting a case for your iPad and the 6th-row keys at a price that won't break your bank.

Overall, I'm quite satisfied with this keyboard and case. Let's address the downside first: the keyboard and case are nearly as thick and heavy as my MacBook Pro M3. I had read similar comments in other reviews, so I was aware of this before purchasing. Another minor issue is the lack of a cutout for the Apple Pencil. This means I can't put a cover on my pencil while charging it, which is a slight inconvenience but neither are deal breakers for me.On the positive side, I truly appreciate the removable case feature. This is why I chose this keyboard case. I often use my iPad without the keyboard, and it's reassuring to know it's still protected. The keyboard itself is impressive; it connected easily on the first try and has remained consistently reliable without any connectivity problems. The mouse functions smoothly, and I am particularly impressed with the keyboard's battery life, even when using the backlight feature. The magnetic connection that holds the iPad to the keyboard is strong and secure, yet detaching the iPad is effortless when necessary. I've accidentally dropped it a couple of times, and it has proven to be quite durable.This product offers excellent value for its price. While I do wish it were thinner, I prefer this setup over an Apple keyboard because of the separate protective case for my iPad. Just keep in mind that it won't be the lightest or thinnest option available!

If you’re looking for a great and functional case (as an alternative for the Apple magic keyboard), this is the one! It was recommended by an Apple sales associate and did not disappoint. For reference, I have an iPad Air 13inch.-The keyboard works great and is very responsive; the typing is smooth.-The color is pretty; the blue and purple are my favorite and both beautiful.-The material and build feel sturdy - overall a high quality product.The highlight of this product is the removable case, which is a great product by itself. The removable case hugs the iPad tightly and allows me to use the ipad without the keyboard effortlessly, and not worrying about dropping the iPad.Highly recommend 10/10!!
