Here is my code of custom UITableView subclass, which expand UITextView at the table cell, without reloading (and lost keyboard focus):

- (void)textViewDidChange:(UITextView *)textView {
    CGFloat textHeight = [textView sizeThatFits:CGSizeMake(self.width, MAXFLOAT)].height;
    // Check, if text height changed
    if (self.previousTextHeight != textHeight && self.previousTextHeight > 0) {
        [self beginUpdates];

        // Calculate difference in height
        CGFloat difference = textHeight - self.previousTextHeight;

        // Update currently editing cell's height
        CGRect editingCellFrame = self.editingCell.frame;
        editingCellFrame.size.height += difference;
        self.editingCell.frame = editingCellFrame;

        // Update UITableView contentSize
        self.contentSize = CGSizeMake(self.contentSize.width, self.contentSize.height + difference);

        // Scroll to bottom if cell is at the end of the table
        if (self.editingNoteInEndOfTable) {
            self.contentOffset = CGPointMake(self.contentOffset.x, self.contentOffset.y + difference);
        } else {
            // Update all next to editing cells
            NSInteger editingCellIndex = [self.visibleCells indexOfObject:self.editingCell];
            for (NSInteger i = editingCellIndex; i < self.visibleCells.count; i++) {
                UITableViewCell *cell = self.visibleCells[i];
                CGRect cellFrame = cell.frame;
                cellFrame.origin.y += difference;
                cell.frame = cellFrame;
            }
        }
        [self endUpdates];
    }
    self.previousTextHeight = textHeight;
}
