Our Verdict

Logitech Slim Folio Pro

Brydge Pro

The Brydge Pro is better overall than the Logitech Slim Folio Pro. Both keyboards are designed for a third-generation iPad Pro, they're both available in 11 and 12.9-inch sizes, and they both have white backlighting. However, the Brydge is better built and offers a much better typing quality because the keys are more spaced-out.
