I'm considering purchasing an iPad Pro and the Smart Keyboard thing. I just wanted to know if you can easily use the keyboard with the iPad connected on your lap. I feel like it might be too flimsy.
Yeah it works pretty well in your lap as long as you're sitting fairly upright and not reclined too much. It doesn't work so well on soft surfaces like a thick duvet when in bed but that's a very minor annoyance.
I think it may depend on how you sit with the iPad in your lap. I tend to sit with my feet on the coffee table and that makes for a very awkward position to use the Smart Keyboard--it keeps wanting to fold up. So, I ended up typing this using the on-screen keyboard, with the Smart Keyboard tucked under the iPad.
