Reviews for HiPPiH iEagle Foldable Wireless Keyboard

For 100.00 bucks it is a sin! Do not waste your money! I would give it 0 stars if I could have.

This is a terrible product. It's manufactured cheaply, with plastic rattling everywhere. Very uncomfortable. You can actually thumb faster on your iPhone that type on this piece of junk. My particular unit was especially bad because it had trouble getting the power to turn on. Mercifully, the third time I tried to turn it on (months after I first used it, because I hated it so much but needed a wireless keyboard and my good one from Apple was elsewhere) it was simply dead. Hallelujah. I threw it in the trash, where it felt right at home.

This keyboard is the sloppiest, cheapest product I've seen in a long time. Bad design, doesn't even close when it folds, keys are odd shapes and not at all consistent. This is the poorest product I've purchased in at least 10 years.

"Back in the day" I had a Palm PDA and a keyboard that was wonderful.
The HippiH keyboard works fairly well except for the lower left hand (the pinkey finger area). There is a small shift key right next to 3 arrow keys - you can imagine the mischief that happens there.
Also I tried to get a "foot" (small rubber item that raises the plastic keyboard above whatever it is sitting on for a smoother, softer contact) because I lost it.
HippiH's website is being repaird (for the past 2 weeks) and "peter" doesn't answer emails (and I don't want to phone Denmark).
Apple won't help because it is a third party item.

After trying a friend's iEagle and liking it, I ordered my own. I unpacked it, carefully followed the steps for paring the device to my IPad and it worked beautifully--but I could never get it to work again. I kept getting an error message to "make sure the device is turned on and within range," both of which it was. As others have noted, the construction is somewhat primitive; the locking mechanism, for example, is very difficult to move. I'm nervous about trying a replacement and may opt for the standard Apple wireless version.

After receiving the Brookstone wireless keyboard built into a leather iPad case as a gift from my daughter for Christmas, with her blessing, I decided to try out this folding keyboard because of its smaller size before making a commitment. I love the lightweight portability of my iPad and the Brookstone keyboard added considerable weight and heft. Unfortunately, the Apple keyboard was a complete failure. I eagerly took it out of the box, but then struggled for over five minutes to get the battery compartment open. While struggling to do this, one of the little (and I mean LITTLE) white rubber feet on the bottom of the keyboard kept falling off. I could not get the locking latch to slide even a micrometer. And my iPad never could "find" the keyboard to sync. Just kept saying, "connection unsuccessful". I finally gave up and decided to retry the Brookstone. it synced almost instantly with no problems at all. I do NOT recommend the folding Apple keyboard and will be returning it tomorrow.
