If you type for any length of time on an iPad Pro, or hope to ditch a second computer entirely, a great keyboard case can turn your tablet into a true laptop replacement. The Zagg Pro Keys (for the iPad Air and for the 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro) is the best option we’ve found, as it combines a great typing experience with a protective, removable case and multiple viewing angles, all for an affordable price in the category.

In addition to a great typing experience, the Zagg Pro Keys offers some benefits that other keyboard cases don’t. The case separates from the keyboard setup, so you can use just the protector when you don’t need to type. Its keys are backlit, and it allows you to cycle through their colors and brightness levels. And it can pair with two devices, such as your iPad and your phone, toggling between them as needed. Dedicated iPadOS function keys provide quick access to commonly used features, and an Apple Pencil holder lets you easily carry the stylus around. Although the Pro Keys is wider and heavier than some competitors, that extra bulk isn’t severe, and it brings extra functionality.
