Yes it is, similar to MacBook Pro. I believe it is an Aluminum unibody construction with rubber/synthetic bottom.

its not made by apple, so the magnets on this cover arent as strong as the one made by apple.

It should be, but I got a counterfeit (see my review below). I wouldn't recommend buying it from Amazon, go to an Apple Store instead.

I do not believe that it is however, I have two of these....I bought one a couple years ago that is an apple product.....so I wanted another one....I discovered apple doesn't appear to sell it anymore. I found this on amazon and it is identical to my apple one and it works fine I've had it for three months now....I love it!!!

Yup only Apple makes these keyboards, it was likely pulled from another Mac.

They list the country of origin as the USA. I'm assuming you bought these and found a 'China' label somewhere on them. It is possible that, that specific part was made in China. Apple likes to put 'California, USA' all over there products when really the entire thing is manufactured in China. I believe only a certain percentage/portion of the product has to be American made to be labeled Made in America.

Most probably it's not Apple Original. I was previously told by a technician that there are no Apple Original spare parts for iPhone even in auhtorized maintenance cetners!!!

It's actually Apple.. I love these personally.Sold by a third party, obviously as the listing states, but is an Apple product.

The items that I bought were. But there are others that are made by aftermarket companies that may or may not be compatible. If the description reads "Apple Compatible" that is generally code that means it is "supposed" to work, but I have found that sometimes they just do not.

I'm not sure if it's actually Apple, but it works great!! We use it with our iPhones and Kindle with any brand of headphones!

Yup so far. FYI it is made in China but my guess probably same place the apple ones are.... LOL

Yes, you can see in the product description (right after the title) that it is "by Apple".

Yes it is. I have bought this item at 3 different times and all 3 have the apple trademark on them.

Was not new. When it went out two months after I bought it, I took it to an Apple store and they me it had been previously sold from an Apple store in November 2012, so was outside their one year warranty. Neither Amazon or the seller would stand behind the product. Spend the extra $100.00 and buy from an Apple store.

Hello Eric, I would like to know your reason on the emphasis of fake and where you believe the misrepresentation is. They clearly state it is not Apple brand but their own and Apple connectors. I went ahead and provided the appropriate link from Apple but try Google'ing "mfi logo guidelines" and check the Apple website and additionally if you'd like news articles from the 2012 recreation of those due to Kickstarter products. "MFi Logos Promote your electronic accessory with MFi logos. Made for iPod, Made for iPhone, Made for iPad, and AirPlay logos communicate to customers that an electronic accessory has been designed to connect specifically to iPod, iPhone, or iPad, and has been certified by the developer to meet Apple performance standards." - Source is directly from Apple's website at https://developer.apple.com/programs/mfi/ Their (iSmooth) use of the logo simply means that they as the developer have tested their product to meet the Apple performance requirements. Additionally the logo does not mean or imply Apple branded but simple means it is compatible with Apple products according to the guidelines for the give accessory. Owning now two of these cables I can say they work well. They are not truly time tested but at the moment are great for the price, especially if using Amazon rewards in which they price is "FREE". Thanks, Sam

Not sure. Anyways, this product did not stand up well. Fell apart with light usage. Didn't even last a year. Nice concept with the right-angle connection but my original Apple one (without the right-angle) lasted way longer.
