![]() “The iPad Pro is a phenomenal tablet, and with a Magic Keyboard attached, it’s finally starting to feel like a proper computer,” Velazco concluded. With the Magic Keyboard attached, the 12.9-inch iPad Pro is just a hair thicker than a modern, 13-inch MacBook Pro, and almost exactly as heavy … I wouldn’t call this a dealbreaker, but it’s something to consider if you plan to carry around a laptop and an iPad Pro with a Magic Keyboard. This keyboard makes the iPad 12.9″ package feel very chunky.” “The larger iPad Pro and keyboard is basically the weight of a MacBook Air. “At 700g for the 12.9” keyboard, it more than doubles the weight of the whole package,” noted Panzarino. “You will still be reaching (or swiping) up to the Control Center to manage essential functions all the time.” “After giving in and providing a clamshell design and a trackpad, leaving both the Esc key and a function row out seems obstinate,” explained Bohn. Its limited number of keys is also an issue for some, and many note that the Magic Keyboard makes carrying iPad Pro a lot heavier than expected. Reviewers note that its hinge is stiff and takes some force to open up, while others would like to see a larger trackpad. “If money is no issue, or if you’re just willing to splurge, the Magic Keyboard is the gold standard of iPad keyboards.” It’s not perfectĭespite its brilliance, the iPad Pro’s first Magic Keyboard does leave some room for improvement. “The whole thing is sturdy, elegant and surprisingly practical,” added Velazco. ![]() It is beautifully designed, to the last detail: even the Apple logo is in landscape orientation on the back of the case so it’s the right way up when the tablet is wearing its case (it’s a detail first introduced on the latest Smart Keyboard Folio).
