ZAGG Messenger Folio 2 Tablet Keyboard & Case

Product Overview

The ZAGG Messenger Folio 2 is a versatile tablet keyboard and case designed to enhance productivity and protect your device. It features a durable construction, comfortable laptop-style keys, and smart functionalities for seamless integration with your iPad.

Key Features:

• Space Efficient, Standing Design: The Messenger Folio 2 case holds your iPad securely upright so you don’t need extra surface space to accommodate a kickstand. Your iPad locks into a slot on the keyboard and fits neatly into the top of the case, making it easy to use in tight spaces, like an airplane tray.
• Laptop-style Keys: No more cramped typing and misspelled words. Spacious laptop-style keys with clean precise keystrokes make typing fast and easy.
• Detachable Keyboard and Holder for Apple Pencil: The keyboard and case detach to accommodate different uses and environments. The tab for Apple Pencil keeps it, or any other stylus, close-at-hand for when inspiration strikes.
• Highlighted Function Keys: The row of highlighted function keys at the top of the keyboard increases your speed and efficiency. Shortcut keys like Apps Running, Keyboard Hide/Show, Search, Pairing, Play, Next Play, Volume Control and more means you don’t have to hunt and scroll for options.
• On-the-Go Efficiency: Messenger Folio 2 is easy to use when you’re on-the-go with instant pairing and type-C charging—the latest, most convenient way to charge. The magnetic closure holds the case securely closed while it’s in your bag. The Messenger Folio 2 case also has the polished look and comfortable feel of more expensively priced, luxury tablet accessories.

Detaching the iPad:

The iPad can be easily detached from the keyboard for tablet-only use. Gently pull the iPad upwards from the magnetic slot. The protective case remains on the iPad, offering continued protection even when separated from the keyboard.

Speaker Enhancement:

The case is designed with channels that direct the iPad's downward-firing speakers forward, enhancing audio clarity and volume for a better listening experience.

Maintenance and Care

Cleaning:

To clean your Messenger Folio 2, use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the finish. For the keyboard, use a soft, lint-free cloth to wipe down the keys and surfaces.

Battery Charging:

The keyboard is powered by a long-lasting battery that can go up to a year between charges with typical use. When the battery is low, connect a USB-C cable to the charging port on the keyboard. The auto-wake/sleep function helps conserve battery life.
