Again, it's easy to pull my iPad out and use it tablet most of the time, and Brydge Keyboard comes out and my iPad becomes laptop.. So Brydge's challenge in designing Bryge 12.9 Pro is to match the language of iPad Pro.. The clips holding iPad Pro to Brydge Keyboard are smaller, and the attachment feels solid. The clips are the same size front and back, meaning you can remove iPad, flip it around, and insert it back into the clips to use Brydge as a movie mode stand, or even fold it down and use it as double-thick, double-weight tablet.. when you open iPad, the bottom edge of the clips are below the flat bottom of the keyboard case, so the keyboard will slope up slightly — and if it's on your lap, you'll notice those clips. The in the size of iPad has not hurt the keyboard at all, since the previous 12.9 keyboard had empty space to the left and right of the keys. And unlike Apple's Smart Keyboard Folio, Brydge 12.9 Pro has function row, letting you adjust brightness and volume, control playback, and access the home screen or lock iPad.. Using iPad Pro in Brydge 12.9 Pro keyboard gives you what you'd expect from MacBook — except, in my opinion, Brydge's keys are better..
