can i put a case on it or will that conflict with the magnet holding the keyboard to it?

That would be in the way of the magnet. The case also would sit up in the keyboards. I use a neoprene style case and slide the while thing in.

I can't be sure. I do not have my ipad in a hard-case. I have the keyboard connected to my ipad with the magnent and then they are placed together inside my carrying sleeve for protection. I would assume that a case is going to get in the way of the magnent.

Hi Anna, based on how the case fits on my husband's Christmas gift, I would have to say that a keyboard case will probably NOT fit with this case on. Perhaps a separate Bluetooth keyboard would be the thing to try? Good luck. :)

The keyboard connects via magnets in the side of the iPad, so I did have to stop using the case. However the keyboard leaves the back of the iPad exposed when closed, and the whole thing looked so dangerously fragile I bought a slip case to keep it in. I'd recommend that.

Yes. the case is not a good fit at all for the tablet/keyboard combination, and I wouldn't buy it again. You have to take the section holding the tablet out to dock it, and the case is essentially in the way. The tablet is a sturdy thing, so I've been skipping using the case at all.

Yes, the keyboard fits perfectly in the case but you can take it off as well if you are not using it. Love the magnetic hold to keep it in place as well.

Yes. In fact, After I bought it and was using it, I thought I broke it. It is attached to the case by magnets. I did not know this and when it came loose, I thought I had broken it. But it just snaps right back in place. Some times I use the case because it has a built in stand, and just detatch the keyboard so I can sit back.

Mine fits with the keyboard attached. At first it was a little difficult for the magnetic snap to fit together just right but after a few times of pulling it in and out of the case makes it fit perfectly. Hope that helps!

No. It's a wireless keyboard with that connects via Bluetooth technology. It physically connects to the case with magnets.

Yes, but you might want to remove the keyboard or just make sure it's turned off as to not accidentally type while holding. But the front of the case can be folded back like any other.

I dont have a detachable keyboard...but, i think it could fit with the case closed. It just wouldnt be secured.

I have not experienced an problems with the magnetic catch or case. In fact, If I am not mistaken, thet magnetic part of the catch is located on the bottom of the case - beneath and away from the keyboard. Thus, I could not see how the magnet would impact the screen area. WIth that said, the catch does require attention to properly secure the case. Othewwise, I have not experienced any problems thus far.

Yes. There is about a half inch of padding around the case, but it isn't very resilient. It's fine for brushing up against stuff while transporting your keyboard, but it's not going to protect it against hard impact. I suppose, however, that the strength of the plastic shell on the keyboard should protect it just fine in the event of an impact, while the case (with its slight padding) will prevent the plastic keyboard shell from getting scratched or dented. Hope this helps!

Not really. It is held by magnets - given the weight of the keyboard, they don't hold it like they hold the soft Apple cover.

You can remove the keyboard and use the case without it. The keyboard is attached to the case by magnets. As for it being bulky, it is compared to cases that don't come with keyboards but it's nothing to extreme. The keyboard is a little less than a 1/4 inch thick.

No. I've not had a problem with that. The magnetic closer keeps it in place well. Plus the keyboard is removable if you worry about that.

You may be able to fit a thin keyboard in there as well, although I have never tried. This is the most sturdy case I have ever seen/owned, it has survived many accidental falls off onto hard surfaces. I absolutely LOVE this case and recommend it to everybody I know.
