If you are looking for screen protection, mobile keyboards, power management solutions, social tech, or personal audio, it’s quite likely that you won’t have to look any further than Zagg.com. On October 4, 2016, Zagg added two new keyboard cases for the 9.7-inch Apple iPad Pro to its already vast collection of digital lifestyle products. And, of course, BFF is here to tell you all about it.
Those familiar with Zagg products know that they are thoughtfully designed and full-featured. Each of these keyboard cases feature multiple layers of protection, and have an anti-slip surface for secure typing on just about any surface. Both the Slim Book Pro and Rugged Book Pro are available today on Zagg.com and at select retailers.
The Gear
Slim Book Pro ($149.99) Super thin and super functional. This soft touch keyboard case has a built-in kickstand for multiple viewing angles and an integrated holder to keep that all-important Apple Pencil close at hand. The black, backlit keyboard looks like it was borrowed from your favorite laptop and it features low-profile, Chiclet-style keys for comfortable typing in a familiar environment. The Slim Book Pro can also pair with up to three Bluetooth devices and allows users to instantly toggle between them to boost productivity throughout the day.
Rugged Book Pro ($149.99) Layers of protection for the harshest of conditions. The Rugged Book Pro is like a bodyguard for the iPad Pro. The TPE and polycarbonate case features reinforced corners and is designed to protect against impacts up to six feet. The backlit, detachable keyboard is built around a steel frame for maximum protection and features the same low-profile, Chiclet-style keys as the Slim Book Pro. It also has built-in magnets that activate the the sleep/wake function of the iPad to help save battery life when not in use. And like the Slim Book Pro, the Rugged Book Pro has a kickstand and a place to stash an Apple Pencil.
Both keyboards feature four functional modes, including:
- Case mode – protects your iPad Pro from impact, scratches and dings while you are on the go
- Attached keyboard mode – a magnetic hinge secures the keyboard to the case for a true laptop-like typing experience
- Detached keyboard mode – allows the keyboard to be used wirelessly when detached from the case
- Video mode – the built-in case kickstand secures your iPad Pro at an optimal viewing angle so you can easily share videos with everyone.
