It\u2019s safe to say that I\u2019ve waited 10 years for a proper iPad keyboard accessory from Apple. Was the wait for the Magic Keyboard for the iPad Pro worth it? Absolutely. It\u2019s probably better to be late to the game but have a solid product, than to deliver something that\u2019s mediocre \u2013 I\u2019m looking at you, Folio Keyboard \u2013 though I can\u2019t help but wish it hadn\u2019t quite taken a whole decade to arrive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This isn\u2019t quite the review I\u2019d hoped to do for the Magic Keyboard. The coronavirus lockdown means that travel is off the cards for the moment; I\u2019ll return with a follow-up after I\u2019ve had a chance to put it through its paces on a plane, where I suspect it\u2019ll come to be a common sight. For now, I\u2019ve been using the Magic Keyboard for the iPad Pro 12.9-inch at home, but already I\u2019m impressed by just how good it feels to type on. Responsive and tactile, with a very satisfying thunk on every keystroke, it falls somewhere between Lenovo\u2019s ThinkPad and Google\u2019s Pixelbook \u2018boards. They\u2019re each very different, yes, but equally great to type on, and the Magic Keyboard<\/a> lands somewhere in-between. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The 1mm key travel doesn\u2019t sound like a lot on paper, but in the real world it feels just right. You\u2019re not having to press down further than necessary, but nor does it feel like you\u2019re typing on a piece of plastic \u2013 as you would on the Apple Folio keyboard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \n\nPROS<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n\nCONS<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s safe to say that I\u2019ve waited 10 years for […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":40,"featured_media":8650,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[1431,2541],"contributor":[],"class_list":["post-2599","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-other-tech-events","tag-ipad","tag-magic-keyboard"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/magic_keyboard-Apple-techxmedia.jpeg","author_info":{"display_name":"Techx Admin","author_link":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/author\/techxadmin\/"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2599","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/40"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2599"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2599\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8650"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2599"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2599"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2599"},{"taxonomy":"contributor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/techxmedia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/contributor?post=2599"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
