I’ve gotten really used to the design of this Magic Keyboard, and it’s well-sized to fit on smaller desks or on a lap in a pinch. It hasn’t changed much since last year, but new 12.9-inch cases are sized up a tiny bit to fit the new Pro’s slightly thicker dimensions. The keys, especially on the 12.9-inch, are well-spaced and feel just like typing on a MacBook.
Pros: Compact design, easy to attach/detach, bonus passthrough USB-C charge port, somewhat lap-friendlyĬons: Expensive, limited viewing angles, lacks dedicated function keysĪpple’s keyboard, originally released last year, offers a comfortable typing experience. Prices below are for the 12.9-inch keyboard version. The smaller 11-inch Pro works with any 11-inch iPad Pro accessories going back to the 2018 model, and also cases for the 2020 iPad Air. I tested all of these on the 12.9-inch 2021 iPad Pro, which isn’t compatible with many older accessories because of its slightly thicker size. They all have their advantages, and all work well, but I still prefer Apple’s Magic Keyboard for its size/performance over the others. Two other manufacturers are also worth noting: Logitech makes a keyboard-detachable case with a kickstand that’s perfect for Zoom/FaceTime calls using that new zoom-in Center Stage camera, while Brydge has a new case with an extremely large trackpad and a design that feels closest to laptop-like. Now, I’m doing the same.Īpple has its own fancy and expensive Magic Keyboard case. But Apple’s support for keyboard shortcuts and multitouch trackpad gestures work really well on iPadOS. Cases that have both a keyboard and a trackpad really feel like they help the iPad transform into a laptop. Keyboard cases for the iPad Pro add a lot to the picture, especially with a trackpad. This can make your tablet feel like a real laptop. If you’re looking to use your iPad Pro the way it’s intended, then you’ll need a keyboard case that can help you type up emails, essays and more in a flash. But just like before, it doesn’t come with an iPad keyboard. The 2021 iPad Pro is a year old, but it’s still a beast with its M1 processor, gorgeous display and optional 5G.
