GreenLaw Keyboard Case for iPad mini 7 A17 Pro(2024) & Mini 6 (2021) 8.3", 360° Rotate Case for iPad mini 7th/6th Generation, Touchpad Keyboard with 7 Color Backlit, Type-C Rechargeable, Black

I don't usually write reviews, but this case is seriously great. I can't believe this thing is only $60. I feel like it's transformed my iPad experience into pretty much a computer, and as a result I almost never use my real computer anymore! For context, this is my first iPad and also my first keyboard case/folio/etc so keep in mind that perhaps I'm just excited about this concept in general, that I can do most computer tasks away from a computer now.SIZE. This keyboard is bulky. It will double the volume of your iPad. I personally don't mind but it's important to note if you like how thin your iPad is. I think I prefer having keys with actual travel to one of those really thin cases where the "keys" don't move at all.BATTERY AND CHARGING. I've finally used the battery one cycle after about two weeks of pretty extensive use, even when using this keyboard a ton and with the keyboard backlight on about half the time (which is really helpful at night). It's nice that the keyboard charges with USB-C, the same cable/port as the iPad. (I saw that one of the reviews was complaining that the charger wasn't included which makes no sense… because you can literally just use your iPad charger??)KEYBOARD SIZE. Note that the keyboard is smaller than a standard keyboard. (Because the iPad Mini is smaller than a regular keyboard, it's impossible to have a full sized keyboard case.) As with any non-full-sized keyboard, it will take a few hours of typing to fully adjust. But now that I've adjusted, I actually prefer the typing experience on this keyboard over that of both my phone and my computer (2020 MacBook Air). I really did not expect that.MISSING KEYS. In addition to the keys being smaller than full-sized, the keyboard is "missing" three physical keys, which have been moved to be accessible by pressing the fn key: ' " [ ] { }. Out of these, the only key I really miss is the single quote/apostrophe key, because it's nice to type "it's" without having to press the fn key. I found two ways around this: (1) if auto-correct is on as it is by default, typing the apostrophe is unnecessary most of the time, and (2) I went to Settings → Keyboard → Text Replacements and added replacements from "Illl" to "I'll", from "helll" to "he'll", from "itss" to "it's", etc. So now to type one of these words that has the apostrophe, I just type the last letter one extra time and it'll get replaced with the word I want.TILT ANGLES. The angles that you can tilt the iPad are pretty good. It's nice that I can have both the keyboard in front of the iPad (like a laptop) or behind the iPad (like a Facebook Portal) for when I'm browsing the web or making a video call. One thing to note is that in laptop mode, if you tilt the iPad past about 120 degrees, it will fall forward because the keyboard isn't heavy enough. My actual laptop doesn't let me tilt the display past 120 degrees at all so I don't mind.TRACKPAD. The trackpad is pretty usable. Moving the cursor is fantastic. Scrolling is too sensitive but might be something I could get used to. There isn't great palm rejection, so if you tend to type with your hands touching the keyboard, it might be an issue. However, you can turn off the trackpad entirely (fn + space), which is what I ended up doing because I find it so much easier to just directly touch and scroll on the iPad. I wasn't even expecting this thing to come with a trackpad, so the trackpad's just like a bonus feature for me.Also yes I wrote out this entire review on my iPad using this keyboard case. It was a joy to do so!

I’ve been using this keyboard daily for 2 months. It is compact, sturdy, and functional. My favorite feature is the ability for the keyboard to stay in the angle that you put it in. Some other things that I love about this keyboard was the keyboard/ trackpad size, the key combinations, and the big length it lasts between charges.The keyboard keys are not too small making it easy to transition from a standard keyboard. Some key functions are different but it’s no issue. The track pad is the perfect size. Any bigger on the trackpad and I would have to angle my wrist outward to the point of it being uncomfortable. The reason why I rotate my wrist is because I rest my wrist on the keyboard when I type. In order to avoid my palms touching the trackpad I have to rotate my wrist and if the trackpad were any bigger it would be uncomfortable. I also like that I don’t have to lift up my hand when I use the trackpad, I simply use my thumb to position the cursor.The key combinations are a great help. I’m able to switch between apps and turn the volume up and down, among other things, without having to touch my iPad.The keyboard holds it charge for a good amount of time. I’ve left forgotten to turn it off at times but the keyboard has a features that it shuts off the backlight to conserve battery and it’s come in handy!Overall this keyboard exceeded my expectations. And I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to transform their iPad into a workstation.

The iPad Mini 5 Keyboard Case is quite unique in terms of its design, especially with the 360° rotatable feature that allows me to adjust and use it as a display stand, making it perfect for various viewing angles. I truly appreciate its versatility.However, the keys felt a tad too small for my hands, likely an unavoidable design choice given the size constraints of the iPad Mini. I also found the keyboard slightly bulky, and I was a bit disappointed to see no trackpad inclusion. The battery life, unfortunately, fell much short of my expectations. Additionally, the omission of some keys and the slightly unconventional layout means there's a learning curve to master it. It also uses Micro-USB instead of the more prevalent USB-C port, so finding a suitable cable can be challenging while traveling.Despite these quirks, it's mostly a solid case that adds both style and functionality to my iPad Mini. Great for general use but may take some getting used to for extensive typing.

This keyboard is small, but super easy to carry around.I use my iPad Pro with the Smart Keyboard, which works great at home, but it’s too heavy to take with me.So I got an iPad Mini and recently bought this tiny keyboard to go with it — and it was such a good choice!Even though it’s small, it has everything I need, and it’s not inconvenient at all to use.
