The most high-tech portfolio-style case for tablets is now on the market with the KeyFolio iPad 2 Case. The KeyFolio iPad 2 Case is a protective cover that also doubles as a [keyboard converter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/akko-metakey-case). The exterior is made from highly durable polyurethane fabric cover that will cover every area of the tablet to avoid any scratches or bumps. The overall size is very manageable: it’s thin, lightweight and perfect for anyone constantly on-the-go.

On the technical side, the KeyFolio offers users the ability to convert their device into a laptop. It boasts a [Bluetooth keyboard delivering wireless operation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clicks-power-keyboard). The cover can also be [converted into a stand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dock-stand). The dock that the iPad is attached to can be swiveled into a portrait or landscape mode with ease.
