ESR Ascend Keyboard Case iPad 10th 11th Gen Trackpad Backlit Detachable Black

•       Value: Same ESR Ascend keyboard case with trackpad sells $80–100 at Amazon and ESR direct — this is a sealed-box flip at a fraction of MSRP.

•       Urgency / Season: Back-to-school iPad accessory window is opening — students, teachers, and remote workers all stock up on keyboard cases in July and August.

The iPad spends most of its life as a couch tablet. Then a paper is due, an email needs a real reply, a spreadsheet needs editing, and suddenly the on-screen keyboard isn’t enough. Drop the iPad into this case and the keyboard appears under your fingers — backlit, with a real trackpad, and an adjustable hinge that holds whatever angle the moment calls for. Detach the keyboard for movie night, snap it back on for Monday morning. The case earns its space in the bag.

Key Features

•       Backlit Detachable Keyboard with Trackpad → Backlit keys with adjustable brightness for late-night work; multi-touch trackpad supports macOS-style gestures (tap, two-finger scroll, three-finger swipe between apps). The keyboard detaches magnetically from the case when you want to use the iPad as a pure tablet.

•       Fits iPad 10th Gen (2022) AND iPad 11th Gen (A16, 2025) → ESR designed this case for both Apple’s 10.9" iPad generations — same chassis dimensions, same camera cutout placement, same magnetic alignment. One case covers two iPad model years (a real advantage over Apple’s own Folio Keyboard).

•       Floating Cantilever Stand — 15° to 180° → Adjustable hinge holds the iPad at any angle from upright-keyboard to flat-on-the-table. No magnetic snap-stops to fight with — you set the angle and it stays there. Works on a desk, on a lap, on an airplane tray.

•       Detachable Magnetic Back Case → The hard polycarbonate back-case separates from the keyboard, so you can carry the iPad in tablet-only mode with just the back protection. Snap the keyboard back on when you need to type.

•       Portrait AND Landscape Modes → The case supports both portrait (read long documents tall) and landscape (write, FaceTime, video) orientations. Most keyboard cases lock you to landscape only — this one does not.

•       Bluetooth + USB-C Charging → Pairs via Bluetooth (no dongle, no Lightning, no cable connection to the iPad). The keyboard’s own battery recharges via USB-C; typical battery life runs weeks of normal use between charges.

•       Apple Pencil Compatible → Magnetic charging strip on the iPad’s side stays accessible with the case on — the second-gen Apple Pencil can snap on and charge while the keyboard is in use.
