The Logitech Flip Folio is a low-profile keyboard designed for various iPad Pro and iPad Air models. Unlike many folio models designed for these devices, this keyboard works through Bluetooth and can pair with up to three devices simultaneously. Although the folio mechanism is fairly standard, the way the keyboard fits into the case is uncommon among folio keyboards. The keyboard is designed to magnetically snap on the back of the iPad case while carrying your device, which can be useful to use the tablet on its own. It's also powered by four replaceable CR 2016 coin cell batteries instead of using the iPad's Smart Connector or rechargeable batteries like most other comparable keyboards.
While we purchased the version designed for the 11-inch iPad Pro and Air models, it's also available for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro and the fourth-generation iPad Air. See the Differences Between Variants section for more details.
Our Verdict
The Logitech Flip Folio keyboard isn't designed for gaming. Its latency performance is poor, making it unsuitable for competitive, fast-paced games like FPS, fighting games, or MOBAs. Its build quality is mediocre, and its layout may feel cramped for comfortable gaming.
Latency is too high and inconsistent for fast-paced or competitive gaming.
Update rate is limited to 90Hz.
No backlighting.
The Logitech Flip Folio is alright as an office keyboard, especially if one of the devices you use is an iPad. It's also very flexible thanks to its Bluetooth connectivity and support for multi-device pairing. Unfortunately, its build quality is sub-par with cheap-feeling materials. While it can also feel cramped at first, the keyboard is very quiet and has a very low profile that's comfortable to type on without the need for a wrist rest.
Supports Bluetooth and multi-device pairing with three devices simultaneously.
Designed for iPads but fully compatible with other devices.
Mediocre typing quality with tightly spaced keys.
The Logitech Flip Folio is a fantastic keyboard for mobile and tablet use. Although this keyboard is designed for use with various iPad Pro and iPad Air models, it can connect wirelessly over Bluetooth to up to three devices at the same time, and it is compatible with all major operating systems. Typing on this keyboard can feel a bit cramped, especially on the 11-inch variant, but you can get used to it after a few hours of use. The Folio case is also well designed overall, even if the materials used feel kind of cheap. The keyboard fits well into the case, and the whole package is very easy to carry around.
Supports Bluetooth and multi-device pairing with three devices simultaneously.
Designed for iPads but fully compatible with other devices.
Slim and lightweight design.
Versatile Folio case design.

The Logitech Flip Folio is okay for programming. While it's designed to be used with an iPad, the keyboard connects wirelessly over Bluetooth and can pair with up to three devices at the same time. It's also very portable and fully compatible with all major operating systems, making it versatile for different setups. That said, its typing experience will require some adaptation since its small size makes it feel cramped, especially for people with bigger hands. Build quality is also mediocre with cheap-feeling materials across the board. The keyboard also lacks backlighting, and macro-key customization is very limited.
Supports Bluetooth and multi-device pairing with three devices simultaneously.
No backlighting.
The Logitech Flip Folio is only passable for an entertainment or home theater PC setup. It's very compact and can be paired with up to three devices at the same time, which are two important features for this type of use. On the other hand, it lacks backlighting and a trackpad, which can be cumbersome when trying to navigate the user interface.
Supports Bluetooth and multi-device pairing with three devices simultaneously.
No backlighting.
Since it's mainly designed for battery efficiency, the Logitech Flip Folio offers poor raw performance. This keyboard has a very low polling rate and only supports up to 6-key rollover, with no option for NKRO. Its single-key and multi-key latency are mediocre and highly inconsistent, making it suitable only for casual gaming.
Latency is too high and inconsistent for fast-paced or competitive gaming.

Popular Keyboard Comparisons
The Logitech Flip Folio has an uncommon design in the field of folio keyboards. While it's designed to be used with various 11-inch and 13-inch iPads in Apple's lineup, it can also be connected with other devices and isn't attached to the device. The keyboard itself is very small and completely detachable from the folio case, which gives some extra flexibility for people who don't always need a keyboard. Compared to other models like the Logitech Combo Touch or high-end options like the Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro (M4), it also provides some extra versatility as it's Bluetooth-enabled and compatible with other operating systems, and it can be paired with up to three devices at once. This is similar to the Zagg Pro Keys 2, which delivers similar features. While this latter model benefits from the inclusion of a trackpad and backlighting, it does so in a bulkier design overall.

The Logitech Combo Touch and the Logitech Flip Folio fill a similar space, but offer some distinctive characteristics. The Combo Touch benefits from a better overall build quality and the inclusion of a trackpad and backlighting. However, since it connects through Apple's Smart Connector, it only works with the compatible iPad models. The Flip Folio, on the other hand, delivers a much more versatile experience, thanks to Bluetooth connectivity and multi-device pairing. The keyboard portion is also detachable from the case, which gives you some flexibility.
While both the Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro (M4) and the Logitech Flip Folio are portable, low-profile keyboards designed for iPads, they have some distinctive characteristics. Apple's keyboard is better built and offers a trackpad. However, it connects with Smart Connector pins, only works with the tablet, and isn't very versatile. Logitech's keyboard is Bluetooth compatible and can be used with many different devices, but its typing quality isn't as good, and it's a slightly bulkier device overall.
The Logitech Flip Folio and Logitech Keys-To-Go 2 are both low-profile Bluetooth keyboards that come with folio covers. The key difference is that the Keys-To-Go 2 is a standalone portable keyboard, while the Flip Folio is designed specifically for compatible iPad Pro and iPad Air models. They offer a similar typing feel, build quality, and both run on coin-cell batteries. Your choice mainly depends on which devices you plan to use the keyboard with, and if you want a device that will also double as a case for your iPad.
The Zagg Pro Keys 2 and the Logitech Flip Folio are low-profile keyboards aimed at iPad users. They have similar build qualities and benefit from Bluetooth connectivity and multi-device pairing. While the Zagg keyboard is bulkier and delivers a slightly mushier typing experience, it includes backlighting, which can be beneficial to some users.
