Maybe after about 2 months the paint from the keyboard might leave marks on your screen

I was very concerned by this, too. There is a tiny bit of padding where the iPad connects, therefore if you are careful, it will not scratch.

Richard, it's a keyboard but attached to your ipad, as it's magnetized, becomes a protective side...in other words, the screen is protected somewhat by the back of the keyboard. Let me know if you want more info. HAPPY HOLIDAYS! Deb

I purchased a sleeve...I didn't want the outside of the keyboard cover or the back of the iPad to get scratched.

My iPad doesn't have a screen protector, so I don't know if it would work or not. However, I don't see why it wouldn't. It's a great keyboard.

The keyboard comes with two small stick-on pads that cushion the iPad when it's in the "closed" position. I don't have a protective cover on my screen and I haven't had any issues with scratches. However, even though the keyboard acts like a cover, it doesn't latch shut, so if you keep it in a purse or bag, a pen or something could slip in between and scratch it. I keep mine in a little bag and haven't had any problems.

No because the keyboard is recessed and the iPad slips into a slot that keeps the screen from touching the keyboard.

Yes. There is about a half inch of padding around the case, but it isn't very resilient. It's fine for brushing up against stuff while transporting your keyboard, but it's not going to protect it against hard impact. I suppose, however, that the strength of the plastic shell on the keyboard should protect it just fine in the event of an impact, while the case (with its slight padding) will prevent the plastic keyboard shell from getting scratched or dented. Hope this helps!

I have a screen protector on my nook, but to answer your question I just checked and the keyboard doesn't seem to actually touch the screen... The one thing I don't care for is (I assume because of the way it's in my purse) the fold is now at an angle... But other than that I love it

No, but the keyboard really serves as a case. It covers the screen and protects it.

I haven't had any scratching. For my use it protects the iPad quite adequately, however, I am a very careful and gentle user for the most part, so can't speak to rougher use. I like this keyboard very much and would highly recommend it.

No, the case is not only good for the keyboard. I have used many other items in there and have had no problems. The keyboard has soft keys, which are up against the screen, but I have not experienced any damage. The case becomes the stand and is strong enough to sit on the desk next to my computer monitors. I hope this helps.

It won't be scratched. The keyboard will never be in touch with the surface.

I have had one of the early versions without the dampening tip for about 2 years now. I do not notice that it put scratches on my iPad screen, and I do not have a screen protector. I use it for taking notes on a daily basis.

The keyboard will rub against the screen if not aligned when closing. I used a screen protector and it already scratched up. The keyboard has to be turned off before closing or else the keys are pressed against the case/screen and it will turn on the display.

Maybe depending on how thick the case. If not I would suggest getting a skin for the back of your iPad to protect from scratching while you use the keyboard. I got the Luvvitt SILVERBACK (TM) Protective Back Skin from Amazon and it goes on easy / protects while my cover is off. Hope that helps!

No,it does not scratch the screen on my iPad but the magnetic in it,turns off my iPad.

No, the screen is completely protected by the thick edges of the sleeve in which the iPad rests. In order to scratch the screen you would have to leave something large and pointed on the keyboard and then close everything up but Kensington cannot protect from those kinds of acts.In a nutshell, this unit is as protective as any reasonable person could expect! Would I buy it again... without reservation!Hope this helps!
