Hi Guys,

Any suggestion on a Backlit Bluetooth External Keyboard (Which can be used without having the need to attach the 11" in to the Keyboard) As I have an Apple Keyboard Folio Cover which I do not want to remove everytime to use the Keyboard so I am looking for a Backlit Keyboard which connects via Bluetooth without having the need to remove Apple Keyboard Folio Cover ? It should be Backlit !

Anything other than the Brydge ?

You can usually find them on sale for much less I paid $79.99 I considered the Brydge keyboard but it’s way overpriced and offers no protection.

These two paid via Bluetooth and leave the USB-C port open for Mice or a USB-C drive.

Both these models seem to be having their own folio which needs to be latched on with the device only then the keyboard gets operational ! Not something that I am looking out for !!

Yes, I currently have a off-brand Folio case... I’ve always desired to have an external keyboard for the iPP.

I do use the K811, but it’s primarily for the iMac. I use the Keys-To-Go for my iPP. But the K811 is nice paired up with the iPad. Took this photo about a month ago.

The K811 looks like a good option ?

The key travel is awesome. But my plan wasn’t to buy the K811 for the iPad, when I purchased the iMac... I wanted a backlit keyboard. I sold my Magic Keyboard and replaced it with the K811.

Currently using it now. The home key (F5) and the media controls (F11-F13) works, but the Mission Control (F4) and Brightness Keys (F6-F7) do not work.
