Finally purchased a keyboard for my 9.7″ iPad Pro, the Logitech Create1. Some early thoughts…
Pros
- iPad + keyboard is truly amazing.
- Keys feel alright given low travel.
- Smart Connector đź‘Ť.
- Good keyboard support in many apps.
Cons
- The keyboard is clearly still a second class interface.
- A little cramped on a 9.7″ though I hear this is better with the newer 10.5″ iPad Pro keyboards.
- Not sure if there is a good way to collapse the case so the iPad lays flat in while in portrait.
Jury’s Out
Switching planes (by that I mean going from typing on a horizontal plane to pointing with touch on a vertical plane) is entirely intuitive in some moments, but then incredibly awkward in others. For example, gestures such as swiping to scroll or tapping a button come naturally, but the gesture for adjusting the insertion point with the two fingers is cumbersome.
