Be very careful if you have a new IPad Air 4 (2020) to purchase the right model of the Folio Touch. The 1st and 2nd generation case fits but you cannot access the Touch ID. I got mine at Best Buy and it had a sticker placed over the words IPad 1st and 2nd generation on the box with the words IPad Air 4th generation! It will not work as there is not a cutout for the Touch ID! So this one is going back and Best Buy needs to pay attention to things like this. It is an excellent case even adding weight to the IPad and all options work very well on it! Be sure to look for model number ending 009952 for the proper case. Maybe this will save someone else from not making the same mistake.

The product were great. Ive been using this for a month and i had no issue about it. At first it gives me some glitches just like the track pad was not working its not moving and stack up. Overall the function that i expected to have was met. Satisfied!

It’s good because I can not only use it as an iPad but as the laptop with keyboard.
Besides, with the stand, I can use it to watch Netflix everywhere without my hand to hold the iPad.

I really wanted to give the Logitech Folio Touch Keyboard Case five stars, but there are just too many little issues to ignore. That said, it’s not a bad case. It’s just not quite perfect.
Starting with the good: The case is nicely sturdy and very well-made. The fabric exterior has a premium quality and the keyboard itself and the touchpad both have a nice tactile feel. The keys are well positioned. The function row is useful and the multi-touch gestures on the trackpad are familiar. The whole setup is extremely responsive. It’s practically required that I mention that I’m writing this review with the keyboard sitting on a desk and not having any issues with the feel of the keys, the functionality of the trackpad or the ability to nearly infinitely adjust the angle of the iPad itself. I also happen to have a Logitech Crayon and I do like that there’s a slot that will accommodate my stylus. Most are designed only for the much pricier Apple Pencil.
The iOS app is minimalistic and seems to only serve to keep you up to date on firmware updates for the case, so not much to say there other than it works, but doesn’t give you anything by way of other settings or options. I do like that you can go into iPad settings though and turn on tap to click.
I do have a few minor issues, however. Individually, they aren’t deal-breakers but they do add up:
First, the design of the rear folding support does allow you to adjust the angle of the iPad however you like, but with the keyboard folded out and the stand folded back, this is not a case that’s friendly to either lap or lap desk unless the iPad is at a very steep angle. The whole thing is just too deep from front to back. I’m able to sit it in my lap, but only if my legs are straight out in front of me and I’m 6ft tall. Even then, the whole thing feels a bit precariously perched. To be fair, I haven’t encountered an iPad keyboard case of any kind at any price that sits comfortably in my lap, though so this is more of a pipe dream so far.
Second, the case is bulky. By itself, it’s measurably heavier than the iPad it wraps around so you’ll be more than doubling the weight of your entire setup to strap this case on. Flipping the keyboard back and using the iPad in tablet mode with the case on is definitely a workout to lift. All that said, it’s a tank so if you’re rough on your electronics, this case at least feels like it would make it hard to break your iPad.
Next, the cutout for the USB-C port is on the small side. Some of my accessories with larger connectors can get hung up so pair your accessories carefully if they have USB-C connector casings that are on the bulkier side.
Finally, the trackpad only clicks on the bottom half. I’m a “tap to click” type of person, but for folks who like to push to click, you may find yourself at the top of the trackpad and have no way to select without moving your finger.
In summary, this case is a gem for sitting your iPad on a desk and happily typing away for much less than the cost of the similarly functional Apple alternative. However, if you plan to use it on a lap or lap desk, make sure you’re planning to stretch your legs out in front of you because you’ll need your shins to support the entire length.

I like the keyboard. Sometimes it loses connection so i have to remove the ipad to reconnect, otherwise the ipad freezes. This is the only negative about it. Still worth saving over apple keyboard.

iPad has now replaced my laptop. This product gives me the versatility that I was looking for. Very nice product

This is a great little case for the iPad 4th generation. I appreciate the cloth texture and the foldability of the structure.
The keyboard works very well, though I would have appreciated more contrast between the brown key color and the thin white lettering. It’s a little too discreet, especially under some lighting positions.
The trackpad works well, and of course the tracking speed is adjustable in Settings. I’m a mouse man myself and am happy with the Logitech Pebble i345.
