Furthermore, I wanted the case to open and fold out in such a way as to create a flat surface that would allow me to use the keyboard and iPad flat on my lap. I also wanted a storage spot for an Apple Pencil 1st generation, a trackpad, and a backlit keyboard. Additionally, I wanted it to be able to fold back flat against the back of the tablet so that I could use it in tablet mode and not have to keep track of a detachable keyboard when carrying it around. I wanted it to use the iPad Smart Connector so that I wouldn’t have to charge it separately from the iPad. There were certain things that I wanted in a case.

The Gadgeteer has reviewed other Logitech iPad keyboard cases ( Logitech Combo Touch review – A near perfect keyboard and trackpad case for iPad Pro, Logitech Slim Combo iPad case with Detachable Backlit Keyboard and Smart Connector Technology review, and Logitech Slim Combo 10.5 inch iPad Pro keyboard case review to name a few). The Rugged Combo 3 Touch has an asset window that allows schools to view the asset tagging information they need to access without having to remove the iPad from the case. The kickstand is rigid and easily adjustable. This allows the user to adjust the angle of the iPad between 20 – 60 degrees. The Logitech Rugged Combo 3 Touch has a kickstand. The Logitech Rugged Combo 3 Touch keyboard case also has a multi-touch trackpad. They are as follows (from left to right): Home, decrease brightness, increase screen brightness, virtual keyboard, search, Siri, screenshot, backward search media control, play/pause media control, forward search media control, mute audio, decrease volume, increase volume, and lock (to lock the iPad) buttons. The keyboard includes several iPadOS shortcut keys in the top row. The membrane withstands disinfectants and allows the user to clean the keyboard easily. The keyboard is sealed with a rubber/silicone membrane so that the keys are protected from being pried off and it is safe from spills, dust, and dirt.

This also means that there is no need to pair the keyboard to the iPad as you would a Bluetooth keyboard. The keyboard is powered by the Smart Connector and thus doesn’t have a battery that you would have to charge. On the side nearest to the keyboard, you can see the Smart Connector which attaches the iPad to the keyboard. It contains ribbing along all sides to protect the iPad.Īnd here is the inside of the bottom of the case. The above photo shows the inside of the top of the case. The bottom of the case has a cutout for the speakers and the power port. You can also see the power button on the left side of the photo above. The top of the Logitech Rugged Combo 3 Touch keyboard case shows microphone and audio jack cutouts. This binding is also long enough that when folded flat against the back of the case, you can slide the keyboard out of the way from covering the camera, thus allowing you to take pictures and videos. I can easily fold the keyboard flat against the back of the case to use my iPad in tablet mode. I like the fact that the keyboard is attached because I don’t want two separate pieces to keep track of. The keyboard isn’t detachable it is attached to the case with flexible woven material, the same material that the rest of the case is covered in. It contains slits on either side that allow it to hold an Apple Pencil 1 or a Logitech Crayon. The inside of the latch is lined with a bright orange flexible material that feels like a combination of plastic and silicone. The latch that keeps the case closed is magnetic. On this side of the case are the volume up and the volume down buttons. You can tell by the depth of the camera cutout just how thick the rubber protection around the iPad is. The back of the case shows the camera and microphone cutouts. I like it better than the black or grey colors of Logitech’s other iPad keyboards. This is the only color this particular Logitech iPad case comes in. I like the color of the case which is called “Classic Blue”. Logitech says that the material was inspired by the luggage industry and chosen for its durability. The case has a woven nylon or canvas texture on the outside.
