This one replaces an older one. I swear by ZAGG Rugged Books and I replaced it even though I no longer work out in the field. I like the ease of use and the protection!

This is my second Zagg Rugged Book, and they are the best! They are a bit heavy but it's meant to be that way. I find it hard to separate the ipad from the keyboard, but don't think I'll be doing that much anyway. The keys don't loose their silkscreen which is great because sometime I need to look at the keyboard to see where things are. And, very happy they added the backlight for the keys!

Our field employees are hard on our iPads and this rugged book keeps the devices protected when accidently dropped in the field and while traveling on bumpy lease roads. The keypad is functional and easy to connect to Bluetooth. My only complaint is that the rugged book does not charge while charging the iPad.

I have used this keyboard for the last couple of IPads that I have owned and I LOVE them!! They last and are very rugged and durable!! Worth the money!!

Excellent product; we have been using Zagg products on our ambulances for years. They stand up to significant abuse in the field and are a solid design.

This thing is awesome. Feels like a laptop, very durable, but quite easy to remove and use like an iPad. The other magnetic ones on the market either didn't protect the iPad enough or weren't stable enough as they needed to be on a flat level surface, which I rarely have during my work in patient care. I tried a few brands and the zagg keyboard is also really nice to touch and use.

I ordered this product because I have one for my 10.2 iPad and I think it the best for my multi-adaptive environment. The product in the box doesn't match the pictures on the box nor in the ad on the ZAGG website. After reaching out to customer service, they shipped me another one and it didn't match the product pictured either. I've emailed ZAGG multiple times regarding the replacement and no reply after over a week. Quite disappointed. I wanted the procduct pictured; however, it appears as though they are good with shipping customers a product that is not the expectation based on the pictures advertised on ZAGG and on the product box. With a 3 hour time difference, calling them is nearly impossible with my schedule. I cannot see shopping (ZAGG) here ever again once this complete debacle is done and over. To think I was excited waiting for the 1st case. When something works, why change it?? The change was NOT (in my opinion) an improvement.

Awesome, this thing is built like a tank. Heavy feel but that's what makes it feel solid and unbreakable. Keyboard is responsive and automatically turns on just from opening and beginning to type.

This keyboard/case fits all of my needs. The keys are backlit, which helps in a lighting situation I have. There are 2 bluetooth channels which allow me to switch to the second channel and type directly into my phone, a feature I've used several times. The half of the case that fits over the ipad detaches easily from the keyboard, and can be flipped for viewing videos or playing games that only require ouch interaction. I am a musician who uses a tablet music stand and the iPad fits on the stand without removing it from the case, which is ideal for me. I also like the apple pen holder, which keeps the pen handy just above the typing keys. I am very pleased with this case.

My husband LOVES IT! Quality keys & case. Excellent rugged protection and not too heavy. Feels great in your hands when detached from the keyboard too.

Recently as the owner of an Apple iPad Air 2 with a Zagg Keyboard which I very much liked, I purchased an Apple 10th Gen iPad and again I purchased a ZAGG keyboard for it. As much as I like the previous keyboard, the current one is like night and day, as to the "Feel" of the keyboard and its responsiveness. One will never go wrong in attaching ones iPad to this quality product.

Over the years, I have purchased different Zagg keyboards for my different iPads. I like the Rugged Book the best because: 1) it provides the most protection, 2) the keyboard is the most veratile (you can put the iPad screen at whatever angle you chose and stays in place), 3) has backlit keys, 4) has the feel and sound of a desktop computer keyboard, and 5) is a great price. I would like to see the backlighting of the keys a little bit brighter and an on/off button to turn them on. I think the backlights were brighter on a Rugged Book I had years ago - at least that's what I remember. These are just improvements on an already superior product. The Rugged is better than any other keyboard out there.

Excellent product although too heavy! That's fine if used as a desk-top, but I carry mine around in a back pack with my school supplies.

This is my 3rd Zagg keyboard and cover and they have all been excellent. The battery last for months without recharging, keyboard is comfortable and much more convenient for me on flights to take my ipad and this cover-keyboard than my laptop. I haven't tried dropping it, so someone else will have report in on that one.

Out of the box, feels sturdy, sturdy enough for teen use. Removing the iPad part from the keys is difficult as well as attaching it back on. The latches when opening and closing are very stiff. Those three things right there are ease of use issues, make it a 2 star for me.

The rugged book is awesome I have purchased more than one in the past for different ipads. It is wonderful in every way, rugged, good looking, super keyboard, protects the iPad perfectly. Not flimsy like most of the ipad cases out there. I love my Zagg Rugged Book.

I purchased this ZAGG Apple IPad key board and cover for my personal iPad because I've had one at work for years and it really holds up and is easy to use. Plus it protects the iPad well.

The case provides good protection for the iPad, while still maintaining a relatively low profile. My only issue thus far has been with the slot for the Apple Pencil. It is a bit loose, particularly with the flattened side on the second generation one. Many times I have opened the case and found the pencil running loose, depending upon the case orientation.

This Rugged Book is the greatest cover I have ever had. The keyboard connects seamlessly with my iPad! Knowing that if I drop it accidentally it will be safe is a great reassurance! Thank you for such a great product!

Unfortunately, the hinge is not very durable. This current hinge is better than the first version. I even took extra care when opening and closing the rugged book. However, after three or four years, the hinge started getting stiff to open and close and then finally failed entirely.

I work in construction so good protection is a must! Not heavy at all, love how smooth it is and type.

I'm usually a big fan of all Zagg products but this one was disappointing. I found it difficult to bend the hinge - was concerned I would break it. When we went to close it, the top piece are off - it would not stay in one piece to protect the iPad. Sadly, I returned it.

Great case but unfortunately I had to return it because it didn't fit with the IPad Air 3rd generation.
