Just placed an order then realized it is the wrong size for my iPad. There is no way to cancel an order at all which is annoying. Then went and read reviews, not great. Oh well, I guess I can just use the keyboard...

Just received mine from the previous deal last week, it fits my iPad Air MR7J2LL/A
perfectly. It's not as slim as my old Logitech keyboard. It's on the heavy side but very sturdy. The feel on typing is not as responsive as my Logitech keyboard. I wouldn't pay full price, but for $14, it's a steal.

Do you check your iPad Air 2 camera? It is not fit for the iPad Air 2 camera. But all buttons work.

My iPad model number is
MR7J2LL/A. The case doesn't block the camera.

Yeah I just got mine from the deal last week. The right arrow key works but the led underneath it doesn't. I've only had it for a day so I can't remember if it ever worked or stopped after a bit.

But I like the case and keyboard gets the job done for $15

In for one as my $60 folio from Amazon has already lost four keys and is extremely thick.

I don't see why it would not be compatible . I just ordered it for my ipad pro 9.7 (first gen )
As long as it is 9.7 ,should fit perfect

Let us know if it works. I read the FAQ and someone asked if it works with the iPad Pro 9.7 and support said "no" so I held off purchase. If it works I'll reconsider.

Slim book go Keyboard connects thru bluetooth, why wouldn't it work ? It can pair with other devices as well (as keyboard )

Supports two devices pairing mode per zagg site .

Capitalized on the earlier Zagg deal and I'm currently using this for my 6th gen iPad and love it. Getting another one as a gift - thanks for the heads up!

I've iPad Pro 9.7" and I can confirm the keyboard works but lacks sleep/wake function and camera is a bit hindered by the case. For $15 its great imo

I got one from the last deal and didn't realize that it was for the regular iPad and not the Pro. The Pro fits okay into the case, but I wouldn't recommend it.

The camera is slightly misaligned but isn't blocked at all. Ironically the camera misalignment also ends up letting the microphone be revealed otherwise it would be blocked.

The big reason why I wouldn't recommend this is all the speakers are blocked by the case. There are no holes at all, so I'm not sure how the regular iPad speakers also wouldn't be blocked. I wouldn't recommend this for the regular iPad either.

The keyboard also isn't very good. The keys are very cramped and feel kind of mushy. The pressure required to actuate a key is also very inconsistent. I find that I frequently mistype and it might actually be slower than thumb typing on a phone.
