Yeah u can remove the keyboard anytime you don't want to use it. And it is bulky only when the keyboard is inside when you close it. But I love it! Although I should of gotten it in black because white does get dirty pretty fast. I do recommend you getting this though its great.

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 do it all of the time! Especially when my keyboard quit syncing to my iPad. No fears, though, they sent me a new one!!

To date, the keyboard has remained attached to the rest of the case. I take to work every day and it's exposed a great deal of use. I hope this helps.

You can't remove the keyboard, you can fold it back but it doesn't fold back flat :)

1) the keyboard can not be removed from the case, it is integrated. Anyway, I have never tried to remove it.2) I think it is a kind of lighter case for me.What the case interests me the most is it is easy to use and is very convenient for input.

Yes, however the keys are exposed so you would need a carrying (bag/case) to protect it. I bought a carrying case for the tablet, however when I place it inside the case the power switch is activated. Currently I'm looking to invest in a carrying case (inside dimension 7"x12) that will hold the tablet with the keyboard attached. BTW: I've accepted the keyboard for what it is and use it everyday. The ergonomics of the keyboard matches your fingers nicely and the keypads are quite larger. Don't spend $70 bucks for it though...buy it on discount somewhere!!!! I've seen it cheaper than $70 bucks. Yes, however the keys are exposed so you would need a carrying (bag/case) to protect it.

No it doesn't. The keyboard is magnetized so you can easily remove it and put it back, if you just want to carry your tablet around without the keyboard. The case has no operational functions.

Hi Suzanne, If I'm not using the keyboard, I just fold it around behind. It is easier than prying it out of the cover. I'm not sure what you are asking in your 2nd question. The whole set-up may be a little thicker than others on the market, but I am very happy with it! I've been using it since mid August and have yet to need to re-charge the keyboard. I think that I read it can last up to 3 months before needing charging.

Ditto Frank's comment. We had to remove the cover from the ipad, but the keyboard is great. Just be careful, it does not hold it tight, and if you try to pick it up by the keyboard, disaster could ensue.

I think that you are asking if this cover can be used and closed if you are using the optional detachable keyboard. Yes. This cover works great while the keyboard option is being utilized. This is how I use it since I really don't care for the on screen keyboards. I am really pleased with this cover, even more than the keyboard itself. The only knock I have against it is that it does not have a spot for items like thumb drives. Besides that, it is well designed and constructed. I have been very happy with it and would purchase this cover again.

The case is quite thick, but manageable. It is nearly an inch, but I cannot go without my keyboard. Yes, there is a trade off.

Yes, my husband just tried it and said it fits great. He likes it better without the keyboard, but yes it does fit. He really loves this cover. He's a IT specialist so he is very picky about what he has. I hope this helps you.

Absolutly NOT!!! I love my case with the keyboard and so my daughter. This is a very excellent product. So why take it out???

Only if you flip the case front cover over behind the tablet's back, so you'll have to take the keyboard off before closing the case again. You will also have to take the two lower front claws (on the right and left of the windows button) that keep the back attached off the tablet - I hardly ever use my keybord, so for me, it's no biggie. It's much more important to have a slim cover for me.

Yes, you do not need the keyboard, and remember it is attached magnetically so it pulls tight out.

might be the keyboard I have no issues ..BUT I hardly use it cause the screen is very quick ..I do use my case which is a stand also ..Might consider returning the keyboard ..DO YOU REALLY NEED IT ?

If you intend to use the tablet without the keyboard, it works best to remove the tablet from the folio. But to answer your question, you can swing the cover around back, with the keyboard stuck to the flap, but it isn't the most convenient configuration.

With the keyboard attached there is a snap closure; without it, nothing keeps it closed other than the cover's weight. I have not found this to be a problem using my Asus tablet only. --- John
