Typing on a keyboard is unquestionably faster than typing on a tablet's touchscreen, and the fact that the Logitech Slim Folio doubles as a protective case only increases its utility. One of the big issues with most [external keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/satechi-slim-ex-series) is that they have to be added to the ever-growing list of devices that one needs to charge at the end of the day. Not so with the Slim Folio, though. Logitech's iPad 5 offering promises a battery life of a remarkable four years. The device uses replaceable coin batteries rather than a rechargeable lithium ion battery, so users need only worry about battery power every leap year or so. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.9/10 - Popularity: 24% | Activity: 24% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Long-lasting Tablet Keyboards:** With the growing demand for tablet peripherals, new keyboard and case offers four years of battery life, which can lead to opportunities in offering longer battery life in other products. - **Replaceable Coin Batteries:** The use of replaceable coin batteries in the Logitech Slim Folio can open up opportunities in other devices to adopt this eco-friendly and cost-efficient solution to a rechargeable battery. - **Multi-functional Tablet Accessories:** The Logitech Slim Folio doubles as a protective case, highlighting the potential for multi-functional peripherals that can provide more than one benefit for consumers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Consumer Electronics:** The demand for peripherals and accessories for tablets opens up innovation and design opportunities for businesses to offer new and improved products for the consumer electronics industry. - **Office Supplies:** As more people work remotely and from tablets, there is potential for innovations in office supplies, particularly in multi-functional and long-lasting peripherals like keyboards and cases. - **Battery Industry:** The use of replaceable coin batteries instead of rechargeable lithium ion batteries can disrupt the battery industry, as businesses explore new options for eco-friendly and cost-efficient battery solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Flexible Professional Tablet Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/logitech-flip-folio.md) - [Productive Laptop-Like Tablet Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/logitech-combo-touch.md) - [Solar-Powered Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slim-solar.md) - [All-in-One Tablet Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skfp-combo-keyboard.md) - [Ergonomic Tablet Keyboard Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brydge-105-series-ii.md) - [Productivity-Focused Tablet Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/type-folio-case.md) - [Transforming Professional Tablet Cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-logitech-combo-touch.md) - [Improved Tablet Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magic-keyboard-for-ipad.md) - [Ambient Light-Powered Keyboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lenovo-800-selfcharging-bluetooth-keyboard.md)
