Logitech announces two new keyboard cases for iPad

Logitech today announced a pair of new keyboard cases for the iPad (A16) and iPad (10th generation): the Rugged Combo 4c and Rugged Combo 4c Touch.

In a press release, Logitech touts that these new cases offer a “fully sealed keyboard and a versatile USB-C port that enables students to charge iPad and use a wired headset at the same time.”

One thing Logitech specifically calls out is that both the Rugged Combo 4c and Rugged Combo 4c Touch feature a dedicated USB-C port for charging and wired headphones:

As audio becomes increasingly central to literacy, language learning, and digital assessments, Rugged Combo 4c ensures that technology seamlessly supports the lesson. The addition of a dedicated USB-C port allows students to charge iPads and use wired headphones, eliminating the need to choose between power and audio. This flexibility ensures a consistent lesson flow, allowing students to engage deeply for extended periods of time with digital content in any classroom setting.

Logitech highlights several other features available across both new keyboard cases for iPad:

  • Smart Connector: Instantly pairs with iPad for seamless setup, powered directly by iPad, so charging of the Rugged Combo 4c is never required.
  • Sealed, Spill-Resistant Keyboard: Delivers a comfortable and silent typing experience while protecting against spills in busy classroom environments.
  • Easy to clean: Designed with durable and easy-to-clean material, tested to withstand over three years of daily cleaning at schools.
  • Four use modes: Type, View, Read, & Sketch.

Finally, the Rugged Combo 4c Touch also features a “large, high-precision trackpad so students can seamlessly navigate and engage with content in a natural, intuitive way.”

The new Rugged Combo 4c and Rugged Combo 4c Touch are available to order through Logitech’s authorized education distributors.
