![]() ![]() The answer to that question boils down to a combination of how you use your iPad Pro, and how much you’re willing to spend.Īpple’s Magic Keyboard is the best iPad keyboard out there – make no mistake. Of course, just like magic, removing the iPad is as easy as lifting it away. My 11-inch iPad Pro immediately felt bigger when I attached it to the Magic Keyboard. And the design of the keyboard also means your iPad is brought closer to your face when typing. ![]() Unlike the Smart Keyboard Folio (which offers two viewing angles), the Magic Keyboard lets owners adjust the angle of their iPad within a certain range. Instead, what’s magic about the Magic Keyboard is the floating cantilever design – and the super-strong magnets which hold your iPad in place. My only criticism would be that there’s a pronounced and audible click to the Magic Keyboard’s trackpad which is noticeable when compared with the relatively quiet keyboard keys. For this reason, there may be times when you need to activate “tap to click,” a feature hidden away in the Settings app.Īnd it’s worth noting that this is a physical click, too – there’s no haptic magic on the Magic Keyboard, despite the name. The trackpad supports a range of gestures and is clickable anywhere – at the top, side, or bottom. I generally don’t find the trackpad to be too small – although it is far smaller than its Mac counterparts, and may take some getting used to. The Magic Keyboard’s keys are quieter, more comfortable, and feel more like a well-built computer keyboard – even with the smaller 11-inch model. Make no mistake, the typing experience on the Magic Keyboard is nothing short of excellent – and when you compare it with Apple’s previous effort, the Smart Keyboard Folio for iPad Pro, the difference is like night and day. I’ve been using it for the last few days, and these are my first impressions. Now, Apple’s brought us a premium keyboard for the iPad Pro – one that doesn’t just include backlit keys (hurrah!), but also an integrated trackpad. But despite all that power, there are still many environments that really aren’t suited to a touch-based interface, and having a hardware keyboard sometimes attached to an iPad is something many users have opted for over the years – myself included.
