What does it weigh, with and without the keyboard? Also, if you leave the keyboard at home, does the case still fit and protect the iPad?

I don not know the exact weight. It is similar to other keyboard cases I owned for my older IPad. The keyboard is not attached to the case, so you can leave it home if you don't need it while taking the rest of the case with you. Be aware that i the case is still the same width with or without the keyboard being carried.

It isn't too heavy. I haven't weighed it, but it doesn't add significant weight to the iPad itself. Still light enough to throw in a bag or carry with a stack of books.The case is built to fit the keyboard- without it, there is extra space and the magnetic "snap" doesn't connect to hold it closed. It still holds the iPad just fine without the keyboard. The keyboard is just attached to the case by magnet.

Not sure what it weighs but the case fits fine without the keyboard. My daughter mostly does not have the keyboard in the case.

Don't have anything to weight it with, but it is very light. Yes it does protect without the keyboard.

Stella, the iPad protection weighs about 10oz. The keyboard weighs about 8oz. The iPad travels well without the keyboard

I don't think the screen actually touches the keyboard. There is a frame around the keyboard and when you put the iPad into the case, the screen is touching this frame but not the keys themselves.And, no, I haven't noticed any damage of any kind to the screen.

It's a good 3-5 pounds I would say. It's a good amount of weight so that the keyboard doesn't move around while you're typing or playing games which I love! :)

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.

I have the logitech keyboard folio for my ipad 3. It weighs 1lb 6.4 oz without the ipad in it. With the ipad, it weighs 2lb 13.8 oz. That's a little heavy but I like the stability and feel of a secure case. I've never dropped it, but I do believe this would definitely protect your device if dropped. I also have one for my iPad mini.

It works great. The keyboard sticks to the case through magnets, it'll 'lock in' when its in the right place. It won't move unless you purposefully peel it off the case, it'll hold on while upside down (the keyboard itself is extraordinarily light).Without the keyboard, the flap the keyboard rests on can be folded over the back of the case if you're holding it, or can be folded under the case and used as the base that the prop rests on.

I don't know the exact weight but it is probably among the lightest cases I've tried. It doesn't add substantially to the weight of the iPad Air. I figured for the price I would try it and if it didn't work out, no big loss. But I'm happy.

If your concern is getting the iPad sleeping, yes it sleeps when in the keyboard, if your question is about protection, yes it fits very well. I feel really comfortable with the keyboard

If your case has a pocket you should be able to easily store the keyboard there when you're not using it. And if not, it takes almost no space to sit on the ipad. It's an amazingly compact little device.

I used it without the keyboard and it fit great. The case is built to expand with the type keyboard, which is a little wider than the touch keyboard.

A1: the keyboard cant be removed. A2: I have not checked out if it is light weight than the others but to me it is pretty light to me. compared to carrying a Ipad 3rd gen alone.

Since the Logitech keyboard cover is only held to the IPad by the magnetic connection, it can be easily dislodged while carrying it. If that happened, you might drop it or the IPad. I use a padded fabric Mivizu case that I carry this to work and back. I find that the two items together are great protection for the IPad. The Mivizu case also has two pockets for carrying other stuff.

I've never owned a keyboard, but I doubt it. I love having space for pen/stylus, paper, etc., but it's a pretty tight fit. Still looking for the "perfect" iPad carrying case ...

I don't have it in front of me, but the keyboard does a snug fit around the Ipad...just a little larger and the data port is exposed to charge with the Ipad. Please keep in mind that this keyboard works great if you are doing plenty of typing, but if you are only doing casual usage, you might want to look at a case...don't get the Otterbox, there are other cheaper brands that do the same thing and are quality products...we have 2 Ipads at the house and both are in cases...I use the logitech when I have to type alot of words....hope this helps

You can keep it in there, I find it keeps the iPad turned off better (if that makes sense) if you keep the keyboard in there. It's a really flexible system.

The case is articulated into two connected parts like a clam shell. One part, or side, contains the keyboard, while the second side holds your iPad Air. You get a protective case when folded, or open it to use the keyboard. Also, when open , you can extend the iPad side (pulls out on slider rails), and prop it up for typing. Really a great case IMHO.

The case with keyboard weighs 10.8 oz. The tablet inside the case with keyboard weighs 1 lb. 6.8 oz. I love mine.
