Logitech is introducing a new feature to its rugged iPad Combo 4 keyboard case that addresses an ongoing issue with the tablet as Apple continues to push it toward being a laptop alternative . The new Rugged Combo 4c and 4c Touch cases , compatible with the 10th and 11th-gen iPads , add a second USB-C port to accommodate accessories like wired mice , headphones, and external drives while the tablet is still plugged into power. Let’s hope every iPad keyboard case maker copies Logitech.
As with the original Combo 4 that debuted a couple of years ago , the new 4c versions are specifically designed for use by schools and are generally only sold to educational institutions through authorized Logitech distributors. However, the older versions have found their way onto Amazon through some resellers and are priced at around $140 to $150.
The Combo 4c’s updated design includes a spot to magnetically dock the Apple Pencil, which will be held securely when the case’s latch is in use.
