Zagg Pro Keys with Trackpad for iPad 10.2" vs Nillkin Pocket Foldable Keyboard

Buy the Zagg Pro Keys if the iPad 10.2 is your main device and you want a keyboard case that protects it, holds it up and types well in dim rooms. Buy the Nillkin Pocket if you type on several devices, travel light and need something that folds into a bag. The Zagg is the sturdier, more integrated product; the Nillkin is the more portable and more versatile one. Owners of the Zagg praise the detachable case and backlight but call the function keys fiddly and the backlight dim; the Nillkin's folding hinge and small battery are its weak points.

  • Choose the Zagg Pro Keys if you want one case that protects your iPad 10.2, props it up and gives you a backlit keyboard for typing on the couch or at a desk.
  • Choose the Nillkin Pocket if you type across an iPad, phone and laptop and want a keyboard that folds flat and switches between them.

Questions and answers

Which is better for typing on an iPad 10.2?
The Zagg Pro Keys. It is made for that iPad, holds it at a typing angle and has backlit keys. The Nillkin works with the iPad too, but you prop the tablet up yourself.
Which is better for travel?
The Nillkin Pocket. It folds to 181 mm and weighs 270 g, so it goes in a bag or pocket. The Zagg is a 16 oz case that stays attached to the iPad.
Does either have a trackpad?
Only the Nillkin Pocket has a touchpad. The Zagg Pro Keys has no trackpad and no mouse in the box, so you tap the iPad screen or pair a separate mouse.
Which lasts longer?
The Zagg has the sturdier feel, with buyers calling it robust. The Nillkin's folding hinge is rated for 10,000 folds, and that hinge is the part most likely to wear.
Is the Nillkin worth stepping up to over the Zagg?
Only if you need multi-device switching, a touchpad or a keyboard that folds away. If the iPad is your only device and you want protection, the Zagg is the better fit.
Can the Nillkin be used with a Windows laptop or Android phone?
Yes. It pairs over Bluetooth 5.0 with iOS, Android, Windows and macOS and switches between up to three devices. The Zagg is iOS only.
