Apple Magic Keyboard 2020 Release Date

The Apple Magic Keyboard has been one of the best, if not the best extra purchases for my 2020 M1 Macbook Pro. Everything about it has been stellar. From the typing experience, aesthetics, minimal footprint, and comfort. I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss my numerical keypad section but that was a choice I made to minimize the footprint (The Apple Magic Keyboard is offered with or without this keypad section). Battery life is also more than exceptional. I've had this setup over bluetooth since the end of May 2021. Current battery life is 69 percent!

The best non-apple apple-format keyboard Ive found to date

I replaced the Apple Magic Keyboard because it didn't light up.

The Apple Magic Keyboard with Touch ID is a game-changer. As someone who spends a lot of time typing, I can't describe the relief I felt when I got rid of my clunky old keyboard and switched to this sleek and elegant device. The most significant feature of this keyboard is undoubtedly the Touch ID. Having the ability to log in to my computer and authorize payments with just the touch of my finger is incredibly convenient, especially when I'm in a rush. The keyboard itself is Bluetooth-enabled, so it's easy to connect to my MacBook, iPad, or other Apple devices without any cables getting in the way. The keys are low profile and responsive, providing a satisfying typing experience that's both fast and accurate. One minor downside is that the keyboard doesn't have a backlight, which can make typing in low light a bit tricky. However, the build quality more than makes up for this small limitation. Overall, I've been extremely satisfied with the Apple Magic Keyboard with Touch ID. It has taken my typing experience to a whole new level, and I would highly recommend it to anyone in the market for a premium keyboard.

I love my Apple Magic Keyboard, and I use it every day at my work and at home. These things are pricey, but the battery lasts forever (I forget there's one in there) and the feel of the keyboard is great. If you're a snob or want a keyboard with a lot of travel, I would look elsewhere but if you want Apple's design language in a pretty good package that works for the common denominator, look no further. I just wish it was backlit.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] have purchased a lot of covers for my iPad and this one was the only one that was a keeper. Compared to the Apple Magic Keyboard they both charge via the iPad port, but the keyboard on the Magic Keyboard is not removable which can lead to problems at times. Offers great protection and the keyboard functions just as an Apple branded product. Easy to link with your iPad and works right out of the box. Durable and more lightweight than a Magic Keyboard. Magnet strength is great hold the iPad tightly in place. At half the price if the Apple Magic Keyboard is a better investment. Great value and product!

The Magic Keyboard is a serious improvement over the original keyboard I purchased for my 2017 iPad Pro, and that was pretty good. But there's really no fair comparison, since the new model is backlit, can charge the Apple Pencil, and appears to be more durable. I like the typing action. Typically, for Apple products, it's pricey, but I feel strongly that I got my money's worth.

I have had a few iPads before and I like this one the best so far. I also purchased the Magic Keyboard and the Apple Pen. A great combination. I really like the track pad. I am missing the function keys on the keyboard though. It would be nice to have volume control on the keyboard.

I really like the Apple Magic Keyboard for my use and purposes. The weight of the keyboard is more substantial than I had been led to believe, which is nice. It instantly connects to my Macbook Pro vie bluetooth, and the internal battery lasts quite a long while (after two weeks it still had over 50% of power left). I'm used to only using the keyboard on my Macbook Pro, so the Magic Keyboard is a very familiar piece of hardware for me.

I purchased my iPad Air with the Apple Magic Keyboard. That keyboard is great for stationary use of the iPad (for sheer typing, it is better than the ZAGG and comes with a trackpad. However, I did not feel at all comfortable placing the iPad in a backpack with the Magic Keyboard; it did not protect the sides and the Apple Pencil was only secured by the charging magnet (it always came off during transport). With the ZAGG, the iPad is much more protected, and it secures the pencil to the case while also charging. The iPad can remain in the case, while either removed from the keyboard or reversed for use as a tablet. The Keyboard has a USB-C charging port, so an additional cord is not necessary (if only Apple would upgrade the iPhone to an USB-C…). It also holds a very long charge. If you travel a lot or frequently move your iPad, I highly recommend this keyboard.
