Customers are delighted by the overall functionality of the 10.2 MAX+ Keyboard Case with Trackpad for Apple iPad (9th, 8th & 7th Gen). However, a significant number of customers reported issues with the hinges, citing instances of breakage within a short period of use and concerns about their sturdiness. These issues led some to return the product. More robust hinges would improve the product's durability and customer satisfaction.

Hinges broke after 3 months. I purchased December 2022. Tried getting Brydge to replace or refund, but have never heard a word. Today I see that they have closed their doors. Very upset due to the price I paid for this product. Are their options?

At first my daughter loved this keyboard. Made doing her homework on her iPad much easier. But then one of the hinges just fell off. The screws that hold the hinges in place are so small that it's amazing it lasted 2 months very poor quality. Best buy will not replace since it's passed their return policy. Do not buy.

Works great with the 9th gen iPad. Just need to update the firmware with the brydge app. Pairing/un-pairing was super easy.
The backlit keyboard with adjustable lighting is great in the dark + tap to touch works well. Recommended if you want a portable device for on the go work.

A great way to turn your iPad into something like a Surface. The back lit keys are a huge plus.

Glitchiest keyboard ever

This keyboard is pretty much the worst. I bought it a few months ago for school and have had nothing but problems.
Pros: it charges fine, stays charged decently long, and types well. The backlit keyboard is nice too. It easily connects to bluetooth. That's about it.
Cons: I have never been able to use the trackpad. Right out of the box, it has always been way too glitchy and it is easier to just use your finger on the iPad. This is very unfortunate because that is the main reason I spent the money on this keyboard instead of buying the apple keyboard that goes with the iPad. The trackpad glitches so bad I have to restart my iPad multiple times a day when the keyboard is connected. It will start clicking things randomly, switching through my tabs, causing my iPad to freeze, even if I turn off the keyboard. Then, the freeze is only resolved if I restart the iPad. This is very difficult when I am in class and just trying to keep up with notes. Now I have to spend more money to buy a new, different keyboard because this one is completely unusable at this point. It makes working so frustrating as the screens are constantly bouncing around and getting frozen. I have tried updating the keyboard through the app and everything.
This is an extremely disappointing keyboard, especially for the price. Do not recommend.

Hinges broke prior to the first year of use. Bad purchase, bad design, should have left ath the store. Great idea though!

Broke apart within 6 months. Hinges are poorly built. The polymer wrap around the case stretches easily. Waste of money.
