Keyboard and mouse combo IPAD
Color: Yellow, Color: Yellow
It’s perfect and super cheap. Makes iPad into a mini pc, mouse and keyboard lights in different colors, for under 50 dollars that’s pretty good. Considering the official Apple magic keyboard is 250.00 with no mouse, and no color on their keyboard options.

Very sparkly!
Color: Pink
My iPad fits perfectly with only a small issue that it pops out in the corners easily if not careful. I am a gently user anyway so that’s a non issue for me. It’s easy to keep clean, the keyboard and mouse work flawlessly and were easy to connect.

Bling Bling
Color: Blue
I’m absolutely loving this iPad case with the wireless keyboard and mouse! The first thing that caught my eye was the gorgeous glittery blue color — it looks so stylish and unique without being over the top. The case feels sturdy and protective while still being lightweight and easy to carry. The keyboard connects quickly and types smoothly, making it perfect for work, school, or just browsing online. The wireless mouse is a great bonus and makes using the iPad feel much more like a laptop. I also love that the stand holds the iPad at a comfortable viewing angle for typing or watching videos. Everything charges easily, setup was simple, and the battery life has been great so far. Overall, this set completely upgraded my iPad experience and looks beautiful at the same time. Definitely recommend if you want something functional, protective, and cute
