The Logitech Combo Touch delighted experts with its compact size and low profile, as this made for good ergonomics. They also liked that it was quiet to type on and that it didn’t need a cable to connect to an iPad. However, its lack of programmability, its limited compatibility, and lack of customization software was not as impressive.

Product testers praised the Logitech Combo Touch for how compact it is, as reviewers from ZDnet liked that its depth was only 16.9mm. Weighing only 1.24 pounds, it is lighter than alternatives like the 1.55-pound Brydge Pro Keyboard (which we’ve covered in our Brydge Pro review) and was found to be very quiet to type on during experiments by the testing team at Rtings. It has white backlighting and can only be used when connected to an iPad.

Despite being unable to test for latency, reviewers did not complain of any lag when typing. Still, they noted that users who preferred a typing experience that is similar to that of a Macbook would be better off with the Brydge 10.2, which we delved into in our Brydge 10.2 keyboard for Apple iPad review. They also didn’t like that it was not programmable and complained about its compatibility with specific iPad Pro and iPad Air models.

Overview

The Logitech Combo Touch is a mid-tier keyboard case that was first available in May 2020. It has a decent-sized trackpad that is 4.5 inches wide, and with a weight of only 1.24 pounds, it is very easily portable. This makes it one of the best keyboards for an iPad. It is specifically designed for the 11-inch iPad Pro and uses a Smart Connector to draw power from the iPad.

Its white backlighting is bright enough to keep keys visible when using it in a low-light setting. The Combo Touch may be compact and portable, but for users who place a more significant premium on ergonomics, our Logitech ERGO K860 Wireless Split Keyboard review may be worth looking into. On the flip side, users who want to keep the experience similar to using a desktop might be interested in our wireless keyboard mouse review.
