Would this keyboard actually work even better for the iPad Air 2 with a sleeve on the iPad, given that the slot on the keyboard is wider than the thic

Thank you. Can you clarify that if you're using it with a sleeve for your iPad 2, is it the same as the iPad Air 2? BTW, the only sleeves ever buy for my iPads are thin, soft gel and clear. Please also clarify what is meant by "is wider than the thic..."does this mean that with an a thin clear soft gel sleeve on an iPad Air 2, it is wider than the slot, but it still works? Does this mean that it will stand up by itself in the slot and will the keypad close flush enough on it if the edges on the sleeve is thin enough, such that the closure will out the iPad in sleep mode, and that it comes together fairly flush such that there is not a large gap between the iPad and the keyboard?

It is held in place by magnetic attraction. With a sleeve on I doubt the magnet would be strong enough to keep it in place.

I think you would lose the slant that allows you to view the screen were you to have a sleeve on it. I have a clear screen protector on my iPad Air only.

I think that it would be a tight fit. I have a cover on my iPad and that fits with extra space, but the keyboard is thicker. If the keyboard is larger than the iPad It won't fit.

Yes, it did. I just upgraded to the iPad Air 2 from the iPad Air, and the keyboard paired fine with both.

Ours is an IPad 2 and fits just fine. The keyboard needs to be charged more frequently than I would like, but it's ok. Gives the IPad a bit of mobility, we like it.

the one I purchased is for iPad Air, so the iPad 2 will not fit (it's wider and thicker than the iPad Air)

Yes. I have an ipad1 and use it with it flawlessly. It took me a long time to finally find a keyboard case that for an ipad 1. You should definitely give it a try. Now, remember. The ipad is a bit thicker than the others so it isn't going to be thin. But it works well.

I have an iPad 2, but if you check to see if both keyboards are the same, it should work. I got one for my iPad but returned it because it did not suit my touch typing and speed. If you don't type very fast or are a two finger typist, it might be a slight improvement over the keyboard that is on the iPad screen.

Shelley, I do have the iPadAir and it dose well but I must say that the keyboard has problems of keys coming off and now the "F" key sticks. I am trying to find a way to see if I could get a replacement for this from Kensington. I'll let you know how that go's.

It worked fine for me with a a tablet or 13" MacBook Air. However, I am afraid it would not work well with two separate pieces of hardware (the keyboard and tablet).

No, it would be too small to be used as intended. The iPad Air works great. Air 2 May be too thin and would need extra support for screen to be responsive.

Re: FabricSkin Keyboard Folio for iPad Air - Doesn't work with Air 2? Options &#8206;11-09-2014 07:01 PM For the IPad Air 2, if you put a small magnet just above the number 1 key, it will turn on the keyboard. Then you can pair with it. Apparently, the magnet placement on the IPad Air 2 is different. Re: FabricSkin Keyboard Folio for iPad Air - Doesn't work with Air 2? [ Edited ] Options &#8206;11-10-2014 04:04 AM - edited &#8206;11-10-2014 04:21 AM KYSK, Thanks so much for your comment. I tried a credit card size magnet first, evidently not strong enough to turn on the keyboard. The second magnet (refrigerator magnet) turned the keyboard on instantly. I was able to use the keyboard for the first time this morning after trying a couple of magnets. Now to find the right size magnet setup for a permanent fix. Do you have any ideas on a magnet for a permanent fix?? jon EDIT...the magnet on a chip clip(used to keep open bag of potato chips closed and attach to refrigerator so you dont lose them) is strong enough. about 1/4 inch thick and the size of a dime. It can be attached on either the front or back of folio near the 1 key and stay connected. Looking for a better solution... http://forums.logitech.com/t5/Keyboards-and-Keyboard-Mice/FabricSkin-Keyboard-Folio-for-iPad-Air-Doesn-t-work-with-Air-2/m-p/1333933#M48980

I have a bluetooth keyboard, and it fits into this case with my iPad Air; if the keyboard is in a case of it's own, it probably would not fit.

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 have an iPad 2, and it fits mine perfectly. If an iPad Air 2 is the same thing, then it will fit. By the way, I LOVE this keyboard and case.

The Logitech keyboard specifically for the Air works great. They make another one for the standard IPad which is not big enough. Great keyboard, tho.They got smart and put a stronger magnetic closing bar on it as well as a rubber strip and small feet on the bottom so the cover won't get scratched. Can't beat this for the money.

I bought the iPad Air 2 yesterday and also tested a couple of the available keyboards in store. This logitech bluetooth keyboard barely works because the iPad Air 2 is slightly thinner than the iPad Air 1; actually, 6.1 mm vs. 7.5 mm, respectively, which is quite a bit. Therefore, it doesn't feel quite as sturdy and safely held in place. I decided to wait for a few weeks to see whether an updated model is released. I would recommend you do the same. I hope this helps.

As far as I know there is little difference between an ipad Air and Air 2 (I know this because I owned the air and went to buy one for my husband a few days ago and the salesperson at the apple store told me there are few differences, and the size is exactly the same), so I can't imagine why it wouldn't work. And I happen to LOVE this case, by the way!! I've discarded a couple of others, but this one is sturdy, handy in it's operation, syncs automatically when I open my ipad, and comfortable to use in terms of size comparison to a standard keyboard. I recommend it strongly!!
