Belkin Announces Full Line of Keyboards and Covers for the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3

Belkin International has unveiled a new lineup of keyboard cases and accessories for Apple’s newest iPads, featuring three QODE keyboards and a collection of thin, lightweight folios for both the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3.

“With the new iPad hitting shelves just in time for the busy holiday season and more people using them as laptop replacements, the creation of iPad keyboards that can measure up to laptop keyboards and accessories that enhance and protect while on the go becomes paramount,” says Ana Hory, director of product management at Belkin. “Belkin’s new accessories for the iPad Air 2 and iPad mini 3 speak to this trend and give iPad users more ways to love their new device.”

For the new iPad Air 2, Belkin will expand its line of QODE keyboards to include iPad Air 2-specific versions of the recently announced QODE Ultimate Pro Keyboard and QODE Ultimate Keyboard.
