TARGUS VersaVu Review & Unboxing: iPad Air Case with 360° Rotation

I've been testing the TARGUS VersaVu Bluetooth Keyboard Case for my iPad Air (also available for iPad Pros), and I have to say, this thing is pretty impressive for transforming your iPad into something that feels much more like a laptop. The standout feature here is definitely that 360-degree rotation capability - you can actually pivot your iPad from landscape to portrait mode while it's in the protective VersaVu case, which is something I haven't seen in many other keyboard cases at this price point.

What really caught my attention during my testing is how well this case balances protection with functionality. Yes, it's thick - about twice the thickness of the iPad itself - but that military-grade drop protection gives me confidence when I'm carrying it around. The keyboard feels solid with proper tactile feedback, the trackpad is responsive once you enable tap-to-click in settings, and having that dedicated Apple Pencil charging slot is incredibly convenient. At just over $100, it's hitting a sweet spot compared to some $200+ alternatives I've reviewed.
