Has anyone tried any non-apple keyboards for the new ipad pro 11 or 12.9? I new there were some for the 10.5 inch pro but I have not seen anyone using the non-apple keyboards for the new ipad pros. My one gripe with the Apple Keyboard for the new ipad pros is having the keys exposed when the cover is folded open and you are using touch screen mode.

Thanks

So far, only Brydge have announced their 2018 iPad Pro keyboards however it is not shipping until 2019. I don't believe any of the 3rd party companies were given any demo models before announcement. I would anticipate Logitech updating their keyboards sometime next year.

So far, Apple's Folio keyboard is the only option.

Are you talking about strictly a keyboard or a keyboard/case combo?

For a non-combo option, I love my Logitech K380. Bluetooth, saves up to three devices to quickly swap around, and has a layout with the command keys on it.

Easily obtainable at your local Best Buy too.

I like the look of the Brydge and the fact that it is backlit and can fold into a tablet display mode, as well as a macbook like keyboard. I signed up to get informed when it is available

I’ve had a keys-to-go since it launched several years ago and love it. It works great with the new Pro. I prefer it over the ASK so I’m returning my ASK and just going with the regular folio and keys-to-go. I may eventually pick up a Magic keyboard as well, since my Apple Wireless keyboard seems to have died.
