The Folio Touch has an extra set of function keys that are extremely useful. Apple's Magic Keyboard doesn't have these, oddly. The Folio Touch has a fantastic keyboard, with a bonus row of function buttons that control screen brightness, keyboard brightness, play/pause, volume, Home Screen and search shortcuts. The case also works with the 11-inch iPad Pro, since they're identically sized with the same rear connectors. Logitech's bulky case isn't pretty, but the folio-style design has wraparound protection that Apple's Magic Keyboard lacks. Logitech Folio Touch ($159): Best for protection The Folio Touch is meant to use on a desk, but its keyboard is excellent. I've been trying both out, and each has its benefits and drawbacks. I looked at several options for the iPad Pro earlier this year, and now have done the same with the iPad Air's two best options. Now that iPads work with trackpads and mice, and many iPadOS apps like Apple's Pages, Google Docs and Office 365 support them, I recommend getting a keyboard case with a trackpad. ![]() Another from Logitech is nearly half the price. There are multiple sold-separately keyboard case options with trackpads. But those accessories don't come included. The new iPad Air feels great, like an iPad Pro for less, and it works (like all current iPads) with trackpads and keyboards. But Logitech's iPad Air keyboard case is a lot less expensive. The Apple Magic Keyboard (left) and Logitech Folio Touch (right) both have backlit keys and trackpads.
