My Opinion
I never knew why someone would spend so much money for a keyboard only but this time I wanted to give it a try for the iPad Air I bought for my wife.
I was more than astonished how good this keyboard is and how well manufactured. It takes it's energy directly from the iPad and the typing is really really relaxing. Even the trackpad works very well and with the latest iPadOS even the mouse pointer looks good and useful.
The only inconvenient may be the weight. I found it very heavy with it's 627g - this is even more than the iPad Air itself which is about 460g.
