Logitech k380 is a good, small keyboard which can switch between 3 devices. The k480 is larger and heavier if you want something a little more spacious, but it's less portable. I take a k380 with me whenever I travel. It's a lovely little keyboard.

It's a tenkeyless keyboard. The function row has media controls, volume, and f1, f2, and f3 are used to switch between devices. The k480 has a wheel to select devices and dedicated buttons to switch between Mac and PC layouts (basically it swaps the alt and windows keys so that option and command are in the correct spots). The k480 also has a slot to stick a tablet, though I don't find it very useful, especially if you have a large tablet or a thick case.

I have the Logitech Slim Folio. It works great. I do recommend it. It provides protection for the iPad front and back. However, a general recommendation is that if you intend on getting a keyboard case do not get any of those with smart connector, it won’t let your iPad lock.

I knew about them, and many people adviced me not to purchase something with it.

Am about to receive my Keyboard in a day or so, and i start reading what you sent, and can not stop, really helpful and so easy to navigate and use.
WHo did that for us?

I have no idea who compiled the info in that link, but I appreciate it so much. Before I found it, I was questioning why I'd purchased the keyboard. Now it's a lot easier to use.

Good call, @Jenna Pepper. I bought my K380 maybe seven years ago. I've dropped it, kicked it, and let it bang around in backpacks and suitcases. It has taken the hardest beating I can deliver and it still performs like a champ. It came with two triple-A batteries, which lasted for over six and a half years. I've had iPhones destroy their batteries in that amount of time. The keys feel great. If you're already used to using a full-size keyboard, you'll have an easy transition.

Can you give a description of the keys from top, from left to righ and so on. Might ask that for Christmas.

I have never gotten good support from Logitech and terrible luck with their keyboards.

I currently have an iClever BK06 keyboard and love it on top of being very portable, it is comfortable to type on and the battery life is excellent.

Use it for my iPad 9. No issues. work well. Wish it had the same functions that windows but you can not get everything in life.
