If you look at people with their Microsoft Surface Pro devices with a little bit of device envy for that nifty keyboard, you’ll be really interested in learning more about the Brydge Keyboard, a sleek bluetooth keyboard that turns your iPad or iPad Mini into a slim, lightweight laptop. With a solid key feel I found it a really good way to make it tons easier to enter information into my iPad. Except for one major problem, as I explain and show in this video review:
Yes, the hinge turns out to be a liability as far as I am concerned, and it’s definitely disconcerting every time you open or close the unit, knowing that you’re putting that much stress on two specific spots on the glass front of the Apple iPad Mini. Then again, I might be overly protective of my much used iPad Mini and you might not find it an issue at all, so definitely do your homework, read the reviews on Amazon, etc.
