There are things about it that I love and things about it that I think are * overdesigned*. Let me explain. It's also worth adding that a real keyboard gives you an ESC key—valuable in many iOS apps but omitted from many iPad keyboards due to the need to fit more specialized function keys into a smaller space. The magnets are very strong, which means you'll need to use two hands to remove it from the mount. Or really, one finger resting on the keyboard while the other removes the iPad from the mount. 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. The keys themselves have rounded edges. They aren't sharp like the iMac's Magic Keyboard, but also not as soft as the Smart Keyboard for iPad. The keys have just the slightest bit of a concave curve. It's almost unnoticeable, but you can feel the curve if you run your finger across the keys.

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. 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. If you reside in the U.S. territories, please call Goldman Sachs at 877-255-5923 with questions about Apple Card.The downside to the Magic Keyboard 2 is that it's not designed to travel with your iPad, but several iPad cases are also available designed to work with the Magic Keyboard 2. However, these generally provide room to store the keyboard and work as iPad stands rather than iPad cases, so while they're an excellent solution for use around the home or office, you'll probably still want to spring for an iPad keyboard case if you plan to use your tablet on the go. I'm not saying the unique angling isn't a good idea. It's certainly one of the best ideas I've seen for a keyboard case. I'm just saying I think it suffers from being overly designed. It's also a standalone keyboard that doesn't attach directly to your iPad, so while it's OK if you plan to settle in and write in a coffee shop, it could be better for use on the go. It also uses Apple's Smart Connector to connect with your iPad Pro rather than Bluetooth, so you'll never need to worry about pairing or charging it. Although the Magic Keyboard includes a USB-C connector, it's there only to charge your iPad Pro, so you can keep the main USB-C port free for other accessories.

It draws its power from the iPad Pro itself, and there's no need to do anything other than plug it in. It's a reasonably minimalist keyboard design doesn't offer much protection beyond scratches. Still, since Apple doesn't need to worry about batteries or Bluetooth radios, it can make the keyboard thinner than most. It's slim enough to be used as a protective case without the bulk of most other iPad keyboards.Magic Keyboard is sold separately. Compatible with iPad Pro 11-inch (1st generation or later), iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation or later), and iPad Air (4th generation or later).
