what's up guys John linear with TLD got a review of the Logitech keyboard case for the iPad 2 parenthesis by Zack and what I mean by that if you guys are familiar with the previous version from zag for the iPad 1 essentially it's the same thing just rebranded by Logitech and now geared to fit the iPad 2 like the name states it is both a keyboard and a case we will start out with the case functionality first it's pretty straightforward I've got a nice brushed aluminum look to it so aesthetically it's gonna match your iPad now it will not work with the Apple Smart Cover but in regards to that it's very similar in the sense that it provides firm protection only and nothing in the back so if you're kind of OCD about protecting your iPad I would recommend getting a screen shield on the back to place the iPad in there what you're gonna do is basically set it down and kind of nudge it in it's not gonna pop or make any noise but it does fit very securely in place moving on to the keyboard function you get a work it a little bit to pull it out but once you do so there's a little hinge right there that you pull up there's actually a groove going down the middle that allow you to sit the iPad in either portrait or landscape the setup was fairly painless make sure your Bluetooth is on on your iPad there's an on/off switch on the case itself and right below that there is a connect button so what you hit that it'll pair with your iPad you can connect it and you're ready to go now first and foremost the keyboard functionality is probably one of the most important things on this because obviously it's a keyboard for iPad there wasn't really a transition period I was actually able to type pretty consistently compared to how I would on a desktop or a laptop so that was definitely a plus as far as that goes one of these stronger points on this keyboard is you actually have iPad specific keys so up on the top left hand corner starting from left to right you have the home button let's take you home the search button which will take you to search then you have the photos button which will take you to your slideshow then to the right of that is a keyboard button which will hide and bring up the keyboard the next up we have a cut copy and paste and to the right of that as an undo and redo moving further along is the media button so you have back pause play next mute volume up volume down and the button on the farthest right side that little lock button will wake and put the iPad to sleep upon touching it so overall the keyboard functionality the keyboard aspect was definitely the strongest part of this product the case kind of left a couple of negatives as far as there's no back protection does not work with the smart cover from what I've read some people maybe would have liked to seen a reverse option where you can use it with a smart cover or actually protects the back and then leaves a smart cover to protect the front so maybe that's an idea for a future revision of this product so I'll post a link down below overall I would recommend it if you guys enjoyed this video make sure to tweet it out that link is down below feel free to subscribe check out our previous video and as always I will catch you guys later
