the iPad pro can be a fantastic tablet but it's not always so great as a laptop stand in it depends on whether you have the right keyboard and the options for the newest 10.5 inch iPad pro are pretty mixed apple smart keyboard is compact it folds into a quick and easy keyboard mode and it doubles as a cover but it's expensive and the keys are a little soft compared to a laptop plus there's no backlighting and it doesn't protect the iPads back either you're going to need to buy a back cover separately logitech slim combo is both a back cover and a keyboard the keyboard is backlit and it has great key travel it also has extra key functions like a laptop the back cover comes with a flexible angle kickstand which is seriously helpful and there's also a pencil loop built in the keyboard detaches as well in case you don't want to type and prefer to just be a case the problem is the whole case is bulky and the design is meant to stay on a table not your lap the floppy feel and the large lower half aren't necessarily going to be great for travel with limited desk space like say a narrow airline table but it's affordable and it winds up being a better keyboard if you have a 12 point 9 inch iPad though Apple Smart keyboard also exists but I prefer a logitech slim combo here it's a lot better choice the larger iPad isn't left friendly to begin with so the cases design feels better match for tables the larger keyboard folds back to take up less space and the top cover fits much better on the iPad it's a great pick and it works on the older twelve point nine inch pro 2 still I preferred last year's much more portable nine point seven inch iPad pro case from Logitech that I could lap type with
