Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro/Air

I know I know. the $300 price tag for this thing is hefty, and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t skeptical when I was actually about to buy it. from the moment I got my iPad I want to get the magic keyboard but I couldn’t yet justify the price. it wasn’t until I realized I could use it for work and school that it was a necessity. I honestly think it takes the iPad to the next level with portability, functionality and productivity. Having this thing literally makes you want to work! Also its great for watching movies and gaming while sitting at a table. While in bed it can be a lil wobbly since its so top heavy, you have to find the sweet spot in your bed for it to not fall back. I also love the viewing angles, I know some people are frustrated that it can’t go alllllll the way back but that would literally be pointless because this case is made for typing. if you want to use your iPad like a table then dont get this case. but if you want to use it as both then all you have to do is simply pop it right off the case and set it on top and you’re good to go to draw and jot down notes. People are also frustrated that this doesn’t have function keys which would have been nice to have or at least even an escape key but I digress. All in all It’s definitely worth the money especially if your iPad is your main device. get over the $300 price tag because 1. it’s an investment just like the iPad, 2. You already spent almost $1,000 on the iPad so why not get the full experience with the magic keyboard? Just dont get it if you know you’re not going to use it very often because then that would defeat the purpose of even getting it. Last thing, you can’t even complain about the price because it’s literally always on sale on Amazon, I got mine for $200 so definitely take advantage of that price! oh I almost forgot, the track pad is awesome! its a little small but its not bad and the keyboard is amazing, wayyyy better than the keyboard on my 2019 MacBook Air because my Mac has a butterfly keyboard instead of scissor switch keys like the magic keyboard. For the 11 inch it is a bit cramped but I dont mind it too much. Okay now im done, just get the damn thing, you won’t regret it!!!

I have used an Apple Magic Keyboard for my iPad for years. During that same time my wife has been through more keyboard and protection accessories for hers than I can count. Well, I finally talked her into giving it a try – she loves it!

The first thing that I like about it is the actual keyboard. It has a nice tactile feel and positive response to typing. I’ve touch typed since junior high school and find the keys, the spacing and depression distance all to be great for fast and effortless keyboarding. It is easy to find the “home” keys and I rarely get “off base”. The keyboard may seem small at first glance but I’ve never had a problem.

The angle that the keyboard holds the screen is only slightly adjustable but I find that it is adjustable enough to fit most of my needs. I am always amazed at how strong the magnets are. They hold it tight but not so much that you can’t remove the iPad when needed. The keyboard creates a firm and stable base for keyboarding whether I have it on my lap or a desk surface.

I find the charging feature very convenient. You plug your cord into the left side of the hinge with a standard USB C connector. It charges the keyboard and iPad simultaneously. Everything charges quickly but doesn’t get in the way if you want to have it connected during use.

If I was pressed to find a negative aspect to the keyboard it would be using the iPad in portrait mode. You really have to detach the keyboard to be effective. That said, I rarely use it in that orientation except for the few apps I have that only render in portrait mode. I think that speaks more to lazy developers than it does to the keyboard.

Yes, this keyboard is very expensive in the scheme of things. If you are looking for an effective and protective case and keyboard it is the best that I’ve found.

Invertí en este producto para el iPad Pro M1, y me gustó mucho. El teclado es muy bonito y tiene texturas de alta calidad, obtuve el color blanco pues me agrada más, y como muchos pensarán, no se ensucia ni se mancha con facilidad, claro, también dándole sus cuidados. El recorrido de las teclas es muy bueno, el tamaño es adecuado para escribir sin molestias, y el brillo que emite es muy agradable. Es resistente y no parece dañarse con facilidad. Me parece que protege muy bien el iPad. El único detalle que me gustaría hubiese tenido es la tecla “esc”, y teclas con funciones especiales dedicadas a subir y bajar volumen, pausa y reanudación de música, sin embargo, el que no los tenga no la hace imposible de usar. Si te la puedes permitir, no lo dudes, te gustará.

Turns he I pad Into and easy to use laptop , keyboard and trackpad integration transforms the typing experience on the ipad and aids speed and accuracy in input and document creation, highly recommended.
