There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I went to the store to get my hands on them to try them out. After holding them, I knew the form factor was just right. But than I saw the 12.9’ Pro. WOW. But do I need 12.9”? HECK YEAH. I’m not a pro user. I watch videos and maybe edit some photos. Nothing more than crops and lighting. What’re edits come with apple photos app. Using it, I realized that the size was almost identical to my crapped out MacBook Pro.
Now getting to the keyboard. Initially, I thought “Why in the world would any sane person pay $349 for a flipping keyboard? They had a display unit with the 12.9” and the larger keyboard. As I used it, it was plainly obvious. “This is why sane people pay $349 for a keyboard!” This absolutely worth every penny. It really turns the iPad into a laptop. The floating iPad is genius. The magnets hold it securely and it does not ever feel like its gonna fall off. The keyboard has a very satisfying click to them. They are backlit and self dim if the iPad goes into rest mode too.
The game changer is the trackpad. The trackpad is very responsive. Since iPadOS added trackpad support, it makes the interaction a lot laptop like. The curser moves around the screen in laptop like fashion. It sorta “snaps” to an area that is clickable when it gets near it. There is no weird trying to precisely move over the cursor.
Some complaints have been the viewing angle while using it as a laptop on your lap as opposed to it sitting on the table. I use it in my recliner with the keyboard laying on my stomach and the iPad sorta sitting close the my legs. It does not tip over, but it is top heavy. The viewing angle is just perfect. I have never felt that I needed to worry that it would tip over backwards. Although it has, but only when I’m in one of my unnatural watching and typing positions. What’s great also is that unlike a laptop, I can easily pop it off and use my iPad like an iPad. When closed with the iPad attached, it feels like it weights the same as a regular laptop. It feels like it weights more a Macbook air but less than a MacBook Pro. But overall, its the absolute best of both worlds.
If your debating weather its worth it, consider this: a 12.9” iPad with 128GB and this keyboard comes in at around $1350. It s’more than an MacBook Air. And roughly the same price as a MacBook Pro. So its laptop price. (Although, you can find the iPad for $949 and the keyboard for $329 on Amazon) with the 90% of the functionality of one, but also all the functionality of a great iPad. I do not miss not having a laptop since I got this.
PROS
Works very well
Easy to put on and Take off
Extra USB C port
Touch pad is a nice touch
Keyboard is very easy to type on
Keyboard is back lighted
Very Sturdy
Cons
Difficult to use as a tablet with this attached
Really difficult to use as a drawing tablet (but luckily it is very easy to remove)
Too expensive unless you can get it on sale
Touch pad is a bit small (but still very usable)
Seems to eat up a lot of the battery on the iPad when using
The keyboard is missing a lot of keys especially the Top row that many use for media control or brightness level
Can only use in landscape mode. May be or not be an issue for you.
Over all this is a great but expensive way to get a flawed laptop experience. A lot of this is due to iPad OS and not
this hardware. But it DOES increase the functionality that the iPad provides without removing any of the original functionality such as the touch screen. This way you can have a tablet and a sort of laptop using the same device.
The Apple Magic Keyboard that I ordered through Amazon on July 15, 2020 arrived this evening about 5:15 p.m. I first ordered it through Apple with an arrival date of August 1, 2020, but then saw that it was $20 cheaper though Amazon with a three day shipment date. The shipment arrived through Amazon on July 18, 2020 as scheduled with no requirement that I be home to receive the product. With products that I have ordered through Apple there has generally been a requirement that someone be home to receive the product. Amazon doesn’t have that restriction, apparently assuming the risk of theft or loss through its delivery policy. I appreciate this feature of Amazon delivery, since I can’t always be home when it is convenient for the delivery person.
Packaging
The packaging was typical Apple and I have grown to expect no less. I’m like a kid when I open new Apple products and today was no different. The Amazon shipping carton contained the white box of the Apple packaging wrapped in a very thin folia within which was the product wrapped again in a translucent plastic sheet with a tab for removing it. There is a paper spacer between the keyboard and the magnet mounting surface with a special little compartment for the instructions, which I judiciously ignore. I do save all the packaging for a period of time just in case the product has to be returned for some reason.
I opened the keyboard and placed my iPad Pro 2018 on the magnetic back and shifted the iPad to a position that I found comfortable. Many people have been impressed by how rigid the hinges work. I didn’t notice that at all, but did notice that the main large hinge snaps into one place and the secondary hinge then moves independently, but I was surprised by how little tilt the whole arrangement allows. Everyone, including Apple, mentions the maximum angle of 130 degrees, but I didn’t realize from reading how little that actually is. No big deal, because the “default” angle, and there is one, seems just about perfect.
The weight is not a factor at all, though the set up is a little heavier than the Smart Keyboard set up. Realistically it takes two hands to carry the 12.9” iPad Pro and Magic Keyboard around while it is open, though if you wanted to prove a point you could probably do it with one hand. There is no problem closing the keyboard and carrying the iPad around closed, one hand or two. I compared holding my MacBook Pro 13” and the iPad Pro 12.9” with Magic Keyboard and the latter seemed slightly heavier. Granted this test was not scientific, but go figure. That’s the way it seemed to me. I’m not going to actually weigh each to get real data, for feel is more important than objective data in this regard.
Typing on the Keyboard
Once I started typing it took me a little while to get used to the action, and I’m still hitting a key wrong on occasion, but not often and not anymore than I do typing on either my 15” or 13” MacBook Pros or my Smart Keyboard for the iPad Pro. As has been noted in other reviews, the number keys are underneath the cantilevered iPad Pro and it takes a few minutes of typing to get used to that, but within minutes I had learned how to sneak my fingers into the cantilever gap and hit the numbers that I need to. I am a touch typist so the first thing that I did was turn the backlighting for the keys down as far as I could. I don’t look at them anyway, but it still leaves a very minimal amount of backlight on. From time to time would still hit my typing fingers on the bottom of the iPad Pro while trying to type numbers, but it really is nothing, and as I get used to this keyboard it won’t be a problem at all. Also, I notice that from time to time I don’t hit a key hard enough for it to register. It is not that one has to pound away on the keys, but if you have a very light touch you might have to get used to pressing a bit harder than one would on a well oiled MacBook Pro. Once again, this is just the newness of the feel of the keys. I also find that it helps a lot if I take a second to get the right posture at the keyboard with my fingers on the home keys, before I start hammering out sentences and paragraphs. The feel of the keys is definitely much nicer than Smart Cover Keyboard for the iPad Pro, but I wouldn’t say it is immeasurably better than the keyboard on a MacBook Pro. Unsurprisingly, the more I type on the Magic Keyboard the more I like the feel of the keys.
Trackpad
Let me just say right off that not having to use my clumsy fingers to move around most apps on the iPad screen itself is a game changer for me. The trackpad is good for this, but I broke down and also bought a Magic Mouse 2 to go with the new set up. I find myself using the mouse a lot more than the trackpad. It is simply more convenient, but I think that this is a matter of taste. I haven’t used a mouse with my MacBook Pros for years, relying solely on their trackpads. So I can use the trackpad with the Magic Keyboard. I just don’t. Note that when the Magic Mouse 2 is paired with another device (MacBook Pro) it will not work with the iPad Pro. In that case you have to use the trackpad on the keyboard to move around (or go back to your finger on the screen).
Battery Life
The iPad Pro did not lose much power when I left it off the charger over night. It had 100% when I went to sleep and 8 hours later it had 96%. That is about the same as when it has been attached to the Smart Keyboard. After 6 hours of steady use typing this review, answering emails, checking twitter and some news sites, and reading some pages on the web, the gauge is showing that I still have 68% battery left.
Overall Impression
So far I like the Magic Keyboard a lot. Perhaps even more than I thought I would. I’m glad that I bought it for two reasons. I like the cantilevered angle that the iPad sits at on the cover and raised position closer to eye height, and I like the feel of the keys. I can definitely type faster than I can on the Smart Cover. I’m glad I spent the money, but not everyone will find that the benefit to cost is worth it. I spend so much time in front of my iPad Pro that any improvement to the experience is well worth it.
Does It Make the iPad Pro a Notebook?
Not by a long shot, but not because of the hardware. If all one does is type reports and format them oneself, or surf the web, or watch movies then it is fine as a sole machine. However, I work with many different companies and they all have their own styles that they insist be used in documents. With Microsoft Word one can just take any report that uses the style and import it into any documents that have been properly set up using the the “Styles” feature of Word. My impression is that most people do not use the Styles feature in Microsoft Word, though I may be wrong about this. I’ve never taken a poll, but on different projects that I’ve worked on people don’t use the feature. I use it all the time, but the mobile Word App does not incorporate a “global” Styles feature. Also, there are accounting and tax programs for a notebook that don’t exist for tablets, or don’t have full functions for tablets. When I use a program or app I tend to learn how to use most of the features. I do not use a computer as a typewriter as many do. I employ most of the nifty innovations that word processing has introduced over the last thirty years, and they just aren’t there for a tablet. On one assignment overseas I brought only my iPad Pro 12.9 (2018) and did all my writing, research copying and pasting, and document management with the tablet. The split screen was a tremendous asset for legal analysis, having the law on one side and my report writing on the other. But ultimately I had to do all of the formatting on my MacBook Pro.

En el aspecto estético no hay mucho que decir, como siempre es uno de los puntos fuertes de Apple, con materiales de calidad y apariencia impecable.
Sobre la funcionalidad, el trackpad funciona de maravilla siendo quizá su punto mas fuerte ya que logras ejecutar todas las funciones que harías en la pantalla con el mismo movimiento de dedos, lo cual era imposible con cualquier mouse externo, salvo el Magic Trackpad.
Respecto al teclado, la retro iluminación es eficiente, las teclas se sienten bien, sólidas, el teclado se recorre fácilmente casi como uno de escritorio sin embargo me decepciona que no cuente con teclas de función en la hilera superior (el Magic Keyboard para Mac si las tiene). Otro punto cuestionable es el espacio que queda entre el borde inferior del Ipad y la fila superior de teclas, es muy pequeño.
En cuanto a su función como funda protectora, bordes y esquinas del iPad quedan totalmente expuestas lo cual lo hace vulnerable. Si pretendes usar un dongle que se fije en la esquina del iPad será imposible debido al grosor de la funda. Otro punto negativo y que le resta carácter de “portabilidad” es que al final iPad + Magic Keyboard se sienten increíblemente pesados.
La carga de la batería dura un 30% menos al usar activamente el teclado.
Perspectiva según mi experiencia de usuario: compre un iPad Pro de 12.9 pulgadas y un Magic Keyboard con la intención de sustituir el uso de una laptop y quizá fue la decisión acertada. Mi trabajo como médico implica estar constantemente en movimiento ausentarme de mi lugar y cargar con el dispositivo a un nuevo escritorio o cabecera del paciente, uso el iPad para revisar desde la red bases de datos de imágenes a las cuales hay que editar. En menor medida uso procesador de texto para hacer notas, lleno formularios y hojas de datos, leo y edito PDF, funciones que se cubren perfectamente con el Magic Keyboard. Para viajar es práctico, no necesitas nada mas. Como dije mas arriba, quizá resulta demasiado pesado para que sea cómodo, pero es funcional.
Si tu trabajo no implica desplazamientos, probablemente sea una mejor opción un Magic Keyboard para Mac y un Magic Trackpad -también para Mac- ya que por un precio menor (alrededor de 6mil pesos) obtienes las mismas funciones y quizá mayor versatilidad.
El día de hoy si tuviera que tomar una decisión, me inclinaría por invertir en una MacBook Air (26mil pesos) para cumplir las funciones mas complejas de mi trabajo y complementarla con un iPad Air (16500 - 20700) o un iPad Mini ( 10900 - 15200) para mantener la portabilidad de un dispositivo poderoso y quizá más enfocado al ocio, ya que la inversión de iPad Pro + Magic Keyboard es de aproximadamente 39mil pesos.
Très utile pour developper les fonctionnalités de l'iPad Pro et utiliserles capacités d'iPadOS.
Fitment and Quality
Over the years I have come to learn that with Apple you get what you pay for quality and after support the keyboard is expensive but I bought this when it was £174 show it was an absolute bargain. I am using this on a brand-new 2021 M1 iPad Pro with a glass screen protector. I bought this as I figured I could return it if it didn’t fit and it was a lot cheaper than the brand-new fifth-generation one and it fits absolutely perfect. I have owned and I return the Logitech keyboard for this the keys are much better the sturdy base allows you to have it on your lap the fact the screen is lifted and closer to your face just enhance his experience.
Cost
There are cheaper alternatives out there but they don’t match the quality. As said in the sale for 174 this is a bargain, The reason I put this as a 4 out of five is because it is almost a price of a cheap laptop I’m not shame it’s not worth it I’m just saying it’s expensive if you pay full price.
Usability
At the time of writing this I’ve only had it a day or so but i am easily able Put this on the end of the armchair and work. I was not able to do with the Logitech keyboard as it does not have a solid base. I have this stored inside of Tom toc folio case, so that added protection let me sleep at night. The lack of protection around the frame was a concern that left me in two Minds if I wanted this, but after ordering a skin and storing it in the folio case I don’t see an issue.
New M1 fitment
I have done this is a separate category as it is something I spent hours searching reviews for and found no answers. The fitment on the brand-new M1 iPad 12 point pro seems to fit perfectly to me I also have a glass screen protector and I’ve enclosed a photo. I can’t understand why you would buy a brand-new model at double the price my suggestion is by this now while it’s on sale
