This keyboard is awesome!
OK, it could use a better name than B050, but it very favorably compares to the Apple keyboard I was using with with my 12.9-inch iPad Pro. I say "was using" because the battery in my Apple keyboard corroded so bad I can no longer open it to replace the batteries.You can see from the pictures that I wasn't using the new Smart Keyboard, which is also black rather than aluminum. While that keyboard has some cool features (smart connector and onscreen shortcut bar) it also requires different keyboards for different size devices and I only want to buy one keyboard that works for my iPhone Xs Max and 2 different sizes of iPads. To be honest, I also think the new Apple smart keyboard feels a bit flimsy -- sorry Apple :)Price may not matter that much to some people using an iPad Pro but $169 seems rather steep to me. If I didn't have a better choice for a keyboard I might have bought it too. It would have been awkward though since I use a leather sleeve to hold my iPad Pro and Apple pencil and the smart keyboard turns into a "smart cover" which will no longer fit in the sleeve.So what do I like about the B050 keyboard?1. One keyboard works with different sizes and generations of iPad/iPhone2. It has a backspace key as well as a delete key! I've always preferred to backspace over characters rather than repositioning the cursor before deleting characters.3. Much sturdier than the Apple smart keyboard and has an angle easier on my hands than using a very flat keyboard.4. Aluminum bluetooth Apple keyboard doesn't have way to hold an iPad/iPhone upright and doesn't have LED status indicators for caps lock, bluetooth, charging, and power.5. Did I mention price -- it's over 5 times less expensive!The only improvement I'd make to the B050 regards its documentation. It uses the term "stick" rather than "paste" (as in "cut and paste").

I'm quite happy with it
Construction is solid. The Bluetooth connection is quick and no-fuss. It's great for devices you want to quickly remove to use in normal tablet/smartphone mode or change orientation from landscape to portrait while using it as a keyboard or just a stand. It's quite versitile as it could be used as a desktops computer keyboard. The typing feel is acceptable; it's full size and certainly better than most mobile device keyboards but not quite as good as most computer keyboards. It's heavy but that means it's more stable and unlikely to tip over.

Holds My 3rd gen 12.9 iPad (Both Landscape and Portrait)
Holds my 3rd gen 12.9 iPad in both portrait and landscape mode! The adjustable cradle takes a bit of force to move, but it’s sturdy. I wanted something mostly for writing/typing while in portrait mode in Google Docs, and this works just fine for it! It seems to fall asleep fast, and wake up time takes a few seconds and doesn’t register keys pressed during wake-up, but for me it isn’t a huge issue. All in all, it gets the job done, and it’s the only keyboard I could fine that let me type in Portait on my 12.9 iPad, so A+ for that!

Great keyboard but need help remembering how to connect with bluetooth.
I bought this to go with my Samsung tablet. I got it to connect easily, but I have misplaced the directions for the bluetooth function. Am writing this and will put in a question so I can start using. I also bought this because it could function on more than just one platform. Also the slant on the keyboard is good for typing.
