Can the case be use with the keyboard vertical also? pictures just shows case one way horizontal. I know Logitech only goes one way horizontal. My friend has that one and she complains that it doesn't do that.I didn't like that I use my ipad air that...

The iPad sits in the case just like you see it in the picture. The case is a landscape case. It does not rotate to vertical. The keyboard will work with the iPad no matter which direction you hold the iPad, but if you hold it vertical, it cannot be in the case.

The keyboard has a specific angle that it can extend to at its maximum because the iPad is heavier in comparison to the keyboard (the maximum angle is a balance between the heavy iPad and light keyboard so that the whole configuration won't tip over). I bought this for my dad and he has no complaints. Hope this helps :)

Bluetooth-wise it works just fine. I have an iPad Air that I was using it with but didn't want to buy another keyboard for my iPad Air 2. Besides, on the Logitech forums a lot of people are complaining about the hinge and weak magnet on the their new keyboard for the iPad Air 2. It's not elegant but i cut a thin strip of cardstock the length of the slot on the keyboard and insert it behind the Air 2 to make it stand a bit more upright. The Air 2 is thinner and leans back too far for my liking w/o this. If there is a magnet to keep the keyboard closed when transporting then it doesn't mate up with the one in the Air 2 so you'll need a sleeve or another inelegant solution like a rubber band. :) Bluetooth-wise it works just fine.

Sort of, yes. You will need to pull the iPad from the grippy hinge and place it back inside in a portrait arrangement. Because the edge grips the iPad tightly, pulling the iPad out to turn it is a bit inconvenient. Supposedly, this case was to have a 'reading mode' design which would have allowed the hinge to fold against the back of the keyboard so you could hold the unit vertically in your hand. Unfortunately, the hinge stops at a maximum angle of 135 degrees which prevents this fold-back arrangement. So pulling the iPad out, turning it and shoving it back into the hinge is the only way to manage portrait mode. So, MD's answer is correct if a bit less explanatory. After messing around with this case more, I now understand how the reading mode is supposed to work. But, it's not what you'd expect. You are expected to pull the iPad from the hinge, flip it around so that it faces upward. Magnets pop out of the hinge to hold the keyboard and the iPad together. Albeit, the magnets alone are not as grippy as the hinge, but at least both pieces are functionally together. Not the best design, but it works when you are simply wanting to keep both together.

Probably. You use it with the iPad in the hotizontal position. It extends a bit beyond the screen, but not beyond the iPad. You have to remove it to use the iPad in any way other than the keyboard displayed horizontally.

Sorry I lose track of the generations, but if you're asking if it is compatible with the iPad Air for example, then no, because the tablet doesn't fit snugly in the holder, it is smaller and thinner. The keyboard itself would work, but the tablet would slide around in the holder, negating its value. For the Air, you need to find a case specifically for its size. I found a number of them available in different price ranges from about $50 to $150 depending on the features and ruggedness of the case.

In the horizontal position it is capable of doing that. You can type using the keyboard as well. In the vertical position I use my stylus to navigate all the time. I hope that this is a help to you.I am still very happy with this product.

Yes, this is the main reason I picked up this case, you can put the keyboard in and flip the screen around, looks kinda weird, but it works really well.

Unfortunately, no, not really. The bars that are supposed to support the underside of the keyboard are too long to fit in the grooves, so that you either have the keyboard wanting to flip over away from you, or flip over towards you. I am likely exaggerating how unbalanced it is, but nevertheless, with its tendency to slide on the stand, it can become a real issue.

I'm not sure what changes were made exactly, but Logitech makes the same Keyboard Folio just for the IPad Air. So there must be a reason why the above Folio does not say it will fit the IPad Air?

This model is for the iPad Air. I have noticed on Amazon that if the key board folio is for the Air 2, it says so--otherwise it is for the Air. After holding plastic on the Logitech keyboard folio broke I orders and have received the Belkin. So far I prefer it over the Logitech. That being said, I love having the combo keyboard and cover--so convenient.

Hi, HollyActually, I use both my Logitech Keyboard with the magnet top, as well. I sort of snaps in the holder, and I can have double protection without the hassle of removing the Logitech case. I love this iPad case, and it sort of disguises the fact that you have an iPad. The first one they sent me had a zipper that was sort of difficult to get started and the zipper pull came off the first few times I used it. The company was great about it, and sent me a new one quickly (and insisted I not return the initial one they sent, so I didn't even have to take time to ship it back)! The replacement case they sent to me was of good quality, and I have really enjoyed it. I hope this helps you decide. Hi, HollyActually, I use both my Logitech Keyboard with the magnet top, as well.

The keyboard case will allow it to rotate into portrait if the keyboard is shut down (you may be able to override if checked to FORCE in "Settings". Then you would just use the soft keys. It is a pretty cool case as it instinctively knows to hide the soft keyboard if the Bluetooth keyboard is on and it also has 2 ways to fold the case to suit your preference..........keys facing out or folded in!

Hi Dennis, Merry Christmas! Thanks for your question regarding the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard. According to the dimensions you provided 9 1/2" X 7 1/4" this cover won't fit. My iPad Air measures 9 1/2" X 6 5/8" and the cover fits perfect - like a second skin. If your iPad Air is the size you stated, search Amazon.com for a Logitech keyboard which matches your dimensions. I hope this information helps. Matthew

Dear Bill R.,The keyboard case axis' maximum rotation is 135 degree, so you can not flip the keyboard behind the ipad, if you still want to play games, you can take off case first.Do you mean you want to use it

Hello. The keyboard is NOT backlit but if you type without looking at keyboard then that's not an issue. If you do not type without looking at keyboard then that's skill which you can learn in one day. I did it. About the screen protector. My case/keyboard damaged the outer case of the tablet and left mark on the tablet screen. Now I have rubber pads placed on the keyboard which separates tablet screen from keyboard (from the edge where tablet should be placed when it's standing). Overall: this case is great. I got correct keyboard layout to type my national characters. I also got keyboard from samsung but it was a lot harder to use it and it hadn't correct keyboard layout. I had to use CTRL key like ALT key on normal keyboard. Logitech's keyboard have correct keyboard layout so no problems there. I'd recomend it to anyone but put some screen protector on your tablet and put some rubber pads on the keyboard to be sure that it won't damage the screen. I also saw in a comment that the edge where tablet should be placed might not hold the tablet and tablet can just fall out from it. It didn't happened to me but better be safe than sorry. So try not to move the tablet+case when tablet is in vertical position (like on the picture). Best regards Tom.

No.The case is strictly for the tablet. Logitech does NOT make a case for the keyboard. But it is an awesome keyboard anyway and a fantastic tablet.
