Is there a typing angle?

There are variable angles you can place your IPAD to suit your typing and viewing preferences. The material on which the IPAD sits allows for multiple viewing or typing positions unlike other cases which have grooves or slots that only allow for a determined number of viewing/typing angles.

It's very light and not bulky. In addition, it doesn't add heft but you give up dedicated angles. Fortunately the product is so cheap I bought two, one heavy duty and this for meetings.

No, if you refer to the nearly horizontal angle. The smallest angle will be 45 degrees, from the table.

No. It gives you lots of typing angles because the angle is determined by a single leather tie; the way the cover works is that you fold the "book" backwards, and the leather tied goes under under the unit, and then you wrap it around a leather toggle on the opposite side. So that is one plus to the unit, although there's other reasons, which I've listed, that I find this a poor design (eg. You must remove the iPad every time you want to turn it on, turn it off, adjust the volume or plug it in to recharge it). You may think you won't mind that - believe me, you will!

I could type a little slower with it on, but it was awkward when it was on the right hand. When it was on my left hand it was no problem as I used my right thumb for the space bar. Hope this helps.

I dont think this is what you're looking for. its not stable enough, and the angle is not what I would prefer to type on. just MO.

No it does not, I am very pleased with it, i'm using it right now as I type.

There are no additional keys (orange or black) in the box. Also, the enter/return key is not as long side-to-side as the typical keyboard and has caused a number of typing errors for me.

Hi John,The numeric keypad is at the top, not the side.Thanks for your interest!

Can you just turn it around so the curve is in the same place as your keyboard curve? Can anyone try that and let me know how it works?

UPDATE (8 July): fixed photos; no longer upside down... no, keyboard shift and pipe/slash keys are positioned differently for the English/US keyboard. see pictures that I added to the picture gallery...

No adjustment for angle, standard keyboard angle legs one position only angle or not.

It's more comfortable than typing with your laptop flat on a table or desk. But you can try it yourself. Elevate the back of your laptop just two inches (measuring from the tabletop to the bottom of your laptop will give you the angle you'll get). A book will work. Then type for a few minutes. If the angle isn't comfortable to you, look for something adjustable or with a lttle less tilt.

No, it doesn't really have a typing angle. The two angles are for viewing, but you can lay it the iPad completely back making it fairly flat and good for typing. It does have a little movement like that but I don't find it difficult to type that way. If you are doing tons of writing it might get tiresome though.

One more issue. I touch type, which means you don't look at your keyboard at all when you type. So feeling the keyboard is important. The extra column of keys on the left M1 to M5 confuses my brain. Because my fingers feel the keys starting more to the left, I am constantly typing towards the left. Pushing S for D, A for S, and CAPS for A. I will try to get used to this.anyone else getting tricked up by the extra row?

I'm going give you a real detailed answer...not really. It really depends on what your preferred typing angle is. Other than lying flat, I would guess the next angle is approx 60 degree angle which I would prefer be closer to 45. However, typing is not real challenging at this angle either, but I'm not typing all day long on it either.

I use the keyboard on my lap, I have not had any problems. There is a little "grove" for the feet to fit into. If the angle was to great, maybe the feet would slip out.

yeah there is probably no deference, also sometimes business keyboards come with the numerical keys added to the side but again this type of keyboard probably doesn't have that option.

yes, there are two fold-flat feet (say that 3 times fast) on the top underside of the keyboard to raise the back of the keyboard to an angle.
