and I don't mean the Logitech folding keyboard, because that one is actually a caes and is large. just folding keyboard only
 
I have the Verbatim one and use it daily. The key layout is a tad bit funky though, as they tried to normalize the layout and ended up with some keys larger than others? For example, the V is twice the size of the B.

But otherwise I like it.

I've got an admin who owns the QQ-Tech folding keyboard in white, which matches her white iPad perfectly. It also charges with the iPad charger, a nice feature.

IMO, there is no best keyboard, but just the most one meet ur requirements, i also dislike bulky keyboard, so i use leather keyboard case which can worked as case & keyboard; and it's portable enough, maybe you also can have a try...

what brand are you using?

i just got myself the Belkin Yourtype keyboard folio. magnet doesn't put the ipad to sleep. the keyboard is light i gotta admit that. but now wondering if a dedicated keyboard would've been better and easier to type on

Hi guys. I actually bought both of these keyboards. I initially bought the QQ-Tech, but be aware the keys are made of RUBBER! Like calculator or TV remote rubber, not the slick plastic of a keyboard designed for touch typists. Nowhere in the product description did it mention this and the moment I opened the folding mechanism and began to type (my thumb got stuck on the spacebar) I knew this was not the keyboard for me.

I then scoured the 'net and found the Verbatim. It nay be a bit larger than the QQ-Tech but is SO much better built (neither is designed in CALIFORNIA ;) by Apple). The keys feel like a laptop keyboard--firm plastic with a slight give and quiet type. VERY responsive with NO lag. My only gripe would be the flashing LED light (luckily covered by your L hand most of the time, I'll take a pic and post.

I'd definitely go with the Verbatim.
