Zagg launches Rugged Book Keyboard case for iPad mini 5

Zagg Rugged Book Keyboard case for iPad mini 5

Zagg is releasing an updated version of its Rugged Book Keyboard for the new iPad mini 5 that brings protection and productivity to Apple's smallest tablet.

The Rugged Book Keyboard is a combination of a case and a keyboard designed for the iPad mini 5. It is able to withstand drops up to 6.6 feet thanks to the rugged design comprised of stainless steel, polycarbonate, and rubber.

The keys are backlit that support seven different colors and connects over Bluetooth. Zagg says the battery, depending on use, can last up to two years between charges. An adjustable "cradle hinge" on the back allows it to work at multiple angles.

Recently, AppleInsider checked out the Zagg Slim Book Go for the iPad Pro line that also included a detachable Bluetooth keyboard and adjustable kickstand but added groover for the Apple Pencil to be housed for bonus protection.
