NEWS – So for those of us that are fans of the Apple tablets, purchasing the iPad or iPad Pro tablet is a serious investment. Apart from paying a premium for the device in the configuration that we choose, we also tend to invest quite a bit of money on accessories, including things like a protective case and a functional physical keyboard.
Once again, ZAGG has responded to the needs of their customers, and they have announced the Messenger Folio which is a case and Bluetooth keyboard combination made specifically for the Apple 10.5-inch iPad Pro. This keyboard/case combination is lightweight, and turns the tablet into a portable workstation, much like a laptop. It features a magnetic closure, Bluetooth technology for connectivity, and a built-in battery that lasts up to 3 months between charges. There is also a built-in holder for the Apple Pencil.
You can purchase the ZAGG Messenger Folio is at ZAGG.com and Target locations nationwide for $59.99.

One of the most basic questions to answer is, How much weight does this add? Your blurb makes no mention but even more surprising, Zagg’s own Tech Specs says nothing about weight. How heavy is this thing?
Hi Rowan,
In response to your inquiry, here are the specs that I got from ZAGG regarding the weight: 22.7 oz = 644g = 1.42 lbs.
Hope this info is helpful.
Yes, thanks!
