My iPad mini is one of my favorite gadgets.
But there’s one thing it lacks for getting real work done: a keyboard.
I don’t meannormal Bluetooth keyboardsor wired peripherals, as those work perfectly as they would with any machine.
But for those of us with smaller hands, the size isn’t a huge issue.
The folio itself uses nice, strong magnets to keep the case closed when not in use.
However, there is a reason I continued looking after trying this case.
For how bulky it made my iPad feel, I expected better performance.
It foregoes the folio-style keyboard case for a sturdy, self-supporting laptop style.
My main problem with this case is that, in my opinion, it’s too ambitious.
I think the biggest consequence of these features, however, is the toll they take on battery life.
I also liked that the hinge was sturdy enough to hold the iPad up without extra folio support.
USB-C charging support is always appreciated, so I was excited to try it out when it arrived.

When I first put it on my iPad mini, I was extremely happy with it.
The problems started when I actually tried to use it.
No matter what I tried, I could not get the keyboard to pair with any of my devices.

For my taste, this keyboard was exactly what I was looking for.
HOU also solved the folio problem pretty creatively.
I am shocked that a keyboard case this thin can even exist.

Another huge win for this case is the keyboard itself.
