[ Update Apr/10/20 ] Best Case I've tried, No contest
[ Update Apr/10/20 ]
No change in review. I've been able use this case daily without fail. Only 2 minor issues I have:
1. I can't set the color to one color that I choose permanently
2. There is no 'white' color as an option
Other than this, it's a fantastic case!

I bought this case when it had one review of 5-stars, so it was a bit of a risk. So far after a month of usage, it's been outstanding. It's not perfect, but it's really close.
What's great about it:
- Very comfortable to type on. I type fast and often, this keyboard is responsive and feels natural.
- The trackpad functionality is excellent. It seems small at first, but quickly becomes natural to use.
- The backlit keys are a huge plus.
- The backlit keys have multiple brightness levels
- The swivel is awesome! I can lean back the iPad without the whole thing tipping, it turns easily and holds it's position perfectly.
- The pencil holder works great and isn't obtrusive or unsightly.
- Battery life is excellent. In 1 month of use, I've only charged it once. I've used it quite a bit and only charged it because I figured I might as well.
What could be better:
- I'm constantly sliding the iPad in/out of my bag, so it's caused one of the rubber feet to come off, but I received extra replacement of these, and it's mostly my doing, but I wish they had a better adhesive.
- The backlit keys don't have "white" as an option. That's the only color I like. Purple, Lavender, Red, Blue, Aqua, Teal, Green, and Yellow are just NOT colors I care to use, especially if I'm in front of customers.
- When you start using the keyboard after an extended period, the backlit keys turn on into a "demo mode" cycling through the colors; I find this annoying and I wish it would just stick to the color I chose last (Yellow) and the same brightness level (Low).
