About this deal

Overall, it has held up quite well, all things considered. Since it is made with a soft-touch silicone material, it can get scuffed up a little easier, but it's easy to wipe it away when necessary. As long as you take care of it and store it properly when not in use, the iPad Pro Magic Keyboard will still look decent, even a year later. Mine has mostly been stowed away in the box since I actually prefer the Logitech Folio Touch as my daily iPad Pro keyboard case, but I did use the Magic Keyboard regularly before getting that one. It has been through multiple bags and carried around by hand, and still looks good. There may be a few visible scuffs and marks here and there, but my iPad Pro itself is still in pristine condition.

Brydge is another veteran of iPad keyboards, and it’s long been known for taking a completely different approach when it comes to the iPad, focusing on making a great keyboard with a more MacBook-like aesthetic. It’s far from the most protective solution you’ll find—we’d barely call it protective—but it’s one of the classiest industrial designs. Below these options, you'll find even cheaper options designed to let you type intuitively but without offering anything particularly special on top. They're considerably cheaper, and offer a simple bluetooth keyboard to use with iPad and iPad Pro. The Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro, however, has a maximum angle of 30 degrees, which is adjustable, but all adjustable angles are too inward to be useful to anyone. You can only angle downward from the open-most angle. No one uses an iPad at a 15-degree (toward the keyboard) angle. It's an over-designed idea. Place your iPad on your Magic Keyboard. The rear lenses should be in the top left-hand corner, so they'll go through the cutout in your Magic Keyboard. You can charge your iPad as usual by connecting your USB-C cable to the USB-C port on your iPad. Or you can connect your USB-C cable to the USB-C port on your Magic Keyboard. Your Magic Keyboard doesn't need to be charged.An iPad Air (4th or 5th generation), iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation or later) or iPad Pro 11-inch (1st generation or later) An iPad Air (4th or 5th generation),iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rdgeneration or later), or iPad Pro 11-inch (1stgeneration or later) How well does this keyboard size work with the 11-inch iPad Pro? Much better than I would have imagined. Place your iPad on your Magic Keyboard. The rear lenses should be in the top left corner, so that they'll go through the cutout in your Magic Keyboard. Apple's own alternatives still offer a full-size keyboard without the need to charge or pair. The Smart Keyboard Folio is compatible with the 2018 and 2020 iPad Pro models, whereas you're looking at the Smart Keyboard for 10.2-inch flagship iPad owners or if you're running an iPad Air.

You might need to use your on-screen keyboard instead of the Magic Keyboard to do things like type accented characters or use dictation. If you were able to place the iPad directly onto the keyboard base at the exact angle it sits when fully open, you'd cut off the number keys row entirely. This hover design allows for plenty of keyboard space, while also providing enough wrist pad distance for you to comfortably set the palm of your hands if that's how you type. While many iPad Pro keyboard cases offer a place to keep your Apple Pencil, not all of them do it with as much versatility as Zagg’s Slim Book Go, which provides three different slots to store your Apple Pencil: the usual spot on the top of the iPad Pro for charging, a storage slot at the base of the cover, and even a holder at the top of the keyboard for setting it down when you’re switching between typing and sketching. While the storage slot makes the case a little wider than most, the Apple Pencil is an expensive accessory, and we think this is the safest way to carry it on the go. Logitech has had to cut a few corners to produce a keyboard at this price. For instance, it doesn't have a rechargeable battery on most pricier wireless keyboards. However, Logitech promises that the included pair of AAA alkaline batteries will last up to two years before needing replacement. The modern round keys lean more toward form than function, which can take some time, especially when combined with the relatively narrow pitch.

To access and use all Apple Card features and products available only to Apple Card users, you must add Apple Card to Wallet on an iPhone or iPad that supports and has the latest version of iOS or iPadOS. Apple Card is subject to credit approval, available only for qualifying applicants in the United States, and issued by Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Salt Lake City Branch. Bottom line: While you can get other keyboard cases for less, the Magic Keyboard is simply that — magical. It has a unique design and the keyboard itself feels excellent, even if it's missing some function keys. There are things about it that I love and things about it that I think are * overdesigned*. Let me explain.
