No (which is one reason why I don't use it very much). For a very similar keyboard/case combo where the case *is* detachable check out the New Trent Rugged Airbender case:iPad mini Keyboard Case, New Trent NT31B Airbender Mini Rugged Splash Resistant Dirt and Shockproof Wireless Bluetooth iPad mini Keyboard Case with Built-in Screen Protector for iPad mini 1 2 3 Only

The keyboard is attached to the case with velcro. It easily detaches. it didn't didn't damage th phone but I used a screen protector. The phone stand was okay. I don't use this anymore. It's too uncomfortable and makes the phone case too thick. The keyboard on the phone it better and easier to use.

It is a case with a bluetooth keyboard that can be detached from it, but I have never detached it. The photos show both pieces both together and separated.

No, it isn't. I also don't use the pull out for the keyboard, it makes me too far away from the computer and I can't read the screen.

Yes, you do not need the keyboard, and remember it is attached magnetically so it pulls tight out.

The one I have does not - but that said, I've been very pleased with its performance, love the keyboard and the "case" functionality, well worth the $.

Yes it does. Its a great case - better than all my expectations. Because the keyboard is easily removable, you are able to manipulate the case any way you want it for your own comfort. The keyboard is held in place with magnets which also means you can move the keyboard to any place on the case, which allows more comfortable angles for the tablet while you are typing.

The keyboard is integrated into the case itself. It is not removable from the case.

Yes, this includes the keyboard, magnetically attached to to cover, so it is easily removable. I really like mine. However oneof the corner clips on the unit snapped off, just after the 30 days had passed. My tablet still is held in, just not as securely. It did take about 4 tries to get the bluetooth loaded but it has worked fine since then.

No the keyboard is not removeable. You can take it out but then you have to figure out how to tape or glue it back in otherwise it falls out.

Yes, it is detachable. I put my keyboard away when I don't want to use it. Then I just use the case to keep my tablet protected. I really like it.

Yes it attaches by magnets so its easily removed and reattached. The magnets are stronger than you think to, so the keyboard won't fall off.

Not really. Though it seems to be pretty stable, the magnetic bar that attaches is probably not strong enough to hold securely. I just tried it and it does hold, but I'd recommend separating it and not use it attached.BTW, the keyboard works great.

No. Keyboard has to be detached to put the tablet in the case. You can open the case and fold it back and attach the keyboard but you can't fold the case closed.

No. That is how I broke it in two places. Be very careful removing the case bc it is very snug. Make no mistake it is a great keyboard. I have heard of ppl sanding down the inside a little to make it easier

No, it is not detachable. The keyboard has a plastic frame around the edges (left, top, and right). Not sure if removing that plastic frame, would then make the palm rest detachable, but it would probably look weird. I do not think it is detachable.
