Review: Logitech Ultrathin Bluetooth keyboard for Apple's iPad Air

By Corey Herscu

In my extensive time using Logitech products, from speakers to headphone and back, never have I been more impressed any product than I am with the ‘made for it’ usability of the Logitech Ultrathin Bluetooth keyboard for the iPad Air.  It’s simply incredible. In fact, over the Christmas holidays, I found myself using this combination for my daily work/email grind, only switching to a full laptop when it came to needing to use Photoshop or write longer-form reviews. Yes, I know, I could have quite easily done both on the iPad as well; it came down to comfort level at that point.

First look at the Dell Venue 8 Pro's wireless keyboard and case

Text and photos by Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

The Dell Venue 8 Pro is an impressive Windows 8 tablet that's got portability and power thanks to a great design and Intel's Atom processor. The wireless keyboard accessory, which comes with a case, just started shipping. We purchased it early December for $99 before Dell offered buyers a $15 discount.

The keyboard itself is thin, light and connects magnetically to the case's cover for easy packing up and storage. The keys are smaller  than what we're used to although the build quality is better than most third-party keyboards we've tested for other tablets.  This should be good for productivity focused users who want the full QWERTY-keyboard input option. We unboxed this just minutes ago so we need time to work with it. Stay tuned for a full review.

SlideShow: First look at the Asus Zenfone and PadFone from CES 2014

One of the more interesting reveals this year at CES 2014 was Asus PadFone which is a smartphone that docks into a tablet to make use of of the tablet's larger screen and controls. It is one of those aspirational products for the 'user who can't decide between a tablet or a smartphone,' and yes it competes with the large smartphone or Phablet demographic. Asus also revealed its line of ZenFones which are Android powered smartphones in 4, 5 and 6-inch screens and various colours. While apparently basic smartphones running Android 4.3, they promise an update to 4.4 KitKat. On tap is HSPA+ and  starts with 1.2GHz Intel Atom Z2520 processor for the 4-inch version. No word on in and when these will make it to Canada. but it is interesting to see Asus mixing it up and diving into the mobile space.
