Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro

AT A GLANCE

INTERFACE Smart Connector

PORTS USB-C (charging only)

COMPATIBILITY 12.9-inch iPad Pro (3rd and 4th gen), 11-inch iPad Pro (1st and 2nd gen)

PRICE $439 (11-inch), $519 (12.9-inch)

Let’s address the elephant in the room first. The Magic Keyboard is expensive. It’s $439 for the 11-inch model and $519 for the 12.9-inch model. For that kind of money, these keyboards had better be magical.

So, are they? Well, it’s a bit disheartening that it’s made out of the soft-touch rubber material like the Smart Keyboard Folio. I’m sceptical of soft-touch rubber because I have had many bad experiences with other devices with similar housings that have degraded and become sticky over time. Fortunately, this hasn’t happened to any of my older Smart Keyboard Folios.

There are upsides to this. Compared Magic Keyboard adds about 6mm and 700g of heft and weight, bringing the total package to about 12mm and 1.34kg.
