Our take on the Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro 12.9" (2021)

The Magic Keyboard is Apple's folio-style keyboard case for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, with backlit scissor keys, a trackpad and a floating cantilever hinge that lifts the screen to eye level. It turns the tablet into a laptop-like setup without a separate stand. It is the premium pick among iPad keyboards, and owners say the typing feel and trackpad justify it over cheaper cases.

Questions and answers

Does it work with older iPad Pro models?
It is made for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, and Apple lists compatibility with the 2018 and later 12.9-inch models. Check your model before buying.
Does it have a trackpad?
Yes. The built-in trackpad supports the iPadOS pointer, click and multi-touch gestures.
Can I charge the iPad while it is in the case?
Yes. A pass-through USB-C port on the hinge lets you charge the iPad without removing it.
Are the keys backlit?
Yes. The backlit keys light up in low light, and brightness is adjusted from iPadOS.
Is a Danish layout available?
This listing is the Danish layout. Shoppers who need US or UK layouts should look for that specific version.
Is it worth it over a cheaper keyboard case?
It costs more, but the scissor keys, trackpad and rigid hinge are the main reasons buyers pick it. Cheaper cases usually have softer keys and no trackpad.
