A:AnswerIf it is made with the same materials as the larger one, don't buy it. Mine is breaking apart just from going from my desk, to my book bag, to a counter at a coffee shop, and back.
A:AnswerThere is no provided screen protection. I however always get my Apple products covered with the tempered glass screen covers, as they are fantastic for screen protection.
A:AnswerDo not buy this keyboard and cover. It broke in less than a month. The cover stated to crack where ever there was a corner. When it cracked it left very sharp edges that cut your fingers. Then the back light stopped working as well. Good thing I took out a extra warranty on it. I had brought it back and got my money back to try on another keyboard.
