Rated 5 out of 5 by from Makes iPad Versatile! The Targus-VersaType for iPad case is the one to beat all others and to turn your good iPad into a GREAT versatile mobile office! I was so excited to get a case that allowed me to type and use my iPad as a small laptop and being able to just carry it right in my purse without needing a large laptop bag. This is an awesome way to bring my office with me and always be productive on the go.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Features What an awesome little Case. It's basically everything bundled into one package. It's a keyboard, a stand, a case and an extra battery. Each one of the features are top notch too 4 ft military grade drop rating, swivel and multiple viewing modes, backlight keyboard with different colors and settings and extra battery life up to 350 hours. I honestly could not ask for more in a case. I love the look and feel and just everything about this case. It is definitely a premium product, I wouldn't expect anything less from Targus. I'm amazed at how they packed everything into this case and still kept it relatively slim. This would make a great gift for anyone that has an Ipad.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Finally a great keyboard and cover for my ipad Finally I can keep a clean Ipad screen instead of typing on the screen and constantly having to clean it. The cover protects the ipad really nicely also. I wish I had found this product years ago. I can now really maximize the use of my ipad since i can not type like a computer keyboard

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Versatile and sturdy This Targus case and keyboard offers the ultimate level of convenience and efficiency. I can easily work on assignments on my iPad now, rather than using my heavy computer, because of the keyboard function. The keyboard is smooth and simple. Love the stylus holder on the side. I can safely confirm that this case duo is very useful for college students.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great keyboard! My kids are doing remote learning. The school ran out of computers and we only have one. Both my kids have school at the same time. I got this keyboard to go with our iPad so my 5th grader can do school work! It works great and we have no issues!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Feels like a real computer I purchased this at an OfficeMax and was so surprised at how easy it is to use and its versatility in any environment. I work in a teaching setting, and this keyboard case can bounce back and forth from reading view, presentation view, and typing mode. I am still finding out all the different features, but this was definitely a purchase well made. The only issue is that the case shows fingerprints very easily, but that can be easily remedied by some vinyl stickers to distract from the smears.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Just like having a laptop! This a versatile keypad case for my iPad 10.2 " It offers great protection and the key board links to the iPad seamlessly. The qwerty layout works well and holds the iPad at a good viewing angle of your choice.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Functions Well This case and keyboard is pretty awesome. I like that it also comes with a pen. It is easy to detach when you don't need it. Connects easily and also protects the screen when closed. Hopefully it will last a while.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very Useful I've been needing a keyboard for my ipad to do school work and this was perfect. I love the look and feel of it, being a case and a keyboard at the same time is very useful but it is quiet heavy. Connecting to bluetooth took a bit long since I was confused on how to do so. I had to use the instruction to learn how to connect the bluetooth to my ipad. Typing felt great. I love being able to change the colors glowing under the keys! I love the shortcuts keys thats very useful like to pop out a search bar or go back home. Overall I highly recommend it for anyone who likes to type on a keyboard and need a case at the same time.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome keyboard/case combo! This is the first keyboard I've tried with my iPad and I'm so glad I decided to give it a go! I instantly become so much more efficient when using my iPad. The case and keyboard feel very durable and I love the rotating hinge. The backlit keys are also a huge plus when using it at night or in a dark room. I've read in some other reviews that they had difficulty connecting the Bluetooth keyboard to the iPad but I didn't have an issues. This case/keyboard combo is a game changer for anyone who owns an iPad, highly recommend!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great quality This Ipad case is excellent. It fits perfectly and is very well made. The fit is snug and I really like the way it opens. It doesn't just flop around. There is some tension to keep it open so it won't just flop closed while you are using it. The keys on the keyboard have a very nice feel to them. This would be an excellent case for anyone who uses their Ipad frequently to type.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good concept. Great concept. Looks great the keyboard lights up nicely. iPad good perfectly heavy duty feeling but not bulky. Only issue is that j can’t get the Bluetooth to connect and be able to actually use the keyboard.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lives long I have only charged it once and it has lasted over a few weeks now, without having it to recharge. The keyboard has light for night use, which is awesome! And is not the ordinary regular light is a bright cool blue color. It wasn’t as easy to pair it to my iPad, but it also wasn’t hard to either. I tried with the side button an it gave me a hard time. I tried step two from the actual keyboard and it paired right away. You can’t move the center like you would in a laptop, I found that out after I tried very hard to find a moving arrow. The case it comes in very pretty, solid matte color black. The case snaps shut. My IPad fits right in, perfectly. The only thing about the case is that it gets pretty messy. It gets finger prints on it pretty easily. Also is a little hard for the iPad to come out. But over all, I like the ability of the use of the keyboard.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fails to Connect to iPad Case is decent and seems sturdy and protective. The issue is that it will not pair with the iPad. The case turns on and the bluetooth light blinks for a moment and then goes off. According to the directions, it should remain flashing for three minutes. The iPad cannot located and connect to the keyboard's bluetooth because it appears to immediately stop broadcasting its signal. There does not appear to be anyway to reset the keyboard case to force it to attempt to re-broadcast its pairing process. This has rendered the keyboard useless.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Protected the iPad but no longer works Purchased in March of 2022 (it’s now May 9) and once, I left the iPad/case on the center arm rest of the truck. When I was going downhill, it slid forward and hit the center control display of the truck, the iPad was not damaged but the keyboard no longer functions properly. All normal things have been done to try and reset it or fix it but nothing has resolved the issue. Because the hinge is designed to swivel and has such a small pivot point, when I use the onscreen keyboard the whole thing rocks back and forth like a grounded punching bag. I now have an expensive, bulky, heavy case that is very limited in functionality

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great iPad Case I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the Targus VersaType 4-1 Keyboard for the iPad 7th Gen looks. It is very good quality and made very nice. I love the texture of it. The keyboard looks great and the keyboard keys are a perfect size. I love the four different keyboard modes you can use. It’s easy to covert between mods. I love how the VersaType case becomes a sturdy stand for my device by folding back the front cover. The case is a nice size and not heavy at all. I am glad I got the opportunity to test and review this product through TryItSampling in exchange for my honest opinion.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great! I really like this keyboard/cover combo for the iPad -- very easy to use, pairs quickly and simply, has some handy shortcut features, and seems durable. I haven't had to test it during a drop (yet) thankfully, but the product seems robust, and I've used and enjoyed Targus products before, so I expect it to perform well. Keyboard has a nice feel, if you're used to typing on a low-profile board, I think you'll feel right at home. I appreciate the swivel hinge, and I love the versatility the product ads to my iPad. Sometimes I just don't want to lug along a laptop or MacBook. It doesn't change the tablet INTO a laptop, but with the added functionality, you can do a lot with it. Very worth the price -- will buy again for future tablets.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Game Changer for Virtual Learning I ordered this iPad case for my daughter (5 so that she could begin learning to type while doing virtual learning. Little did I know how much we would love this case!! The bigger benefit has been the swivel and the angling of the screen. As she moves around for class, she can easily change the angle to whatever she needs for that time. And with a 5 year old, she is always moving and changing positions so being able to easily change the angle of the iPad is a game changer for us. It sounds crazy but this has been one of the biggest assets for us for virtual learning. My only con is that it is a bit heavy but well worth it for the versatility.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Cover with Keyboard I tried two other brands and returned both before I found the VersaType for my iPad Generation 8. I really like the pivoting cover, the rugged case and nice feel keypad.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome? The keyboard is dope the shell seems sturdy and i think itll do its job. Allthough it seems the Samsung Galaxy tab s7 cover is the cover to beat right now. My wife likes this cover for her ipad air though.
