Deal Details
$90 savings is valid 2/2/21 through 2/7/21. Limit 2 per member.

If you have an 11 inch iPad Pro (both the 2nd gen released last year and 1st gen will work with this) or the new iPad Air released last fall and you didn't pick one up during the Walmart or Amazon sales I highly recommend getting this deal. The Magic Keyboard was a huge upgrade for my 12.9 Pro, I still love it after 3 months.

Includes a built-in trackpad, sturdy smoothly adjustable hinge, backlit keyboard with the same switches as new MacBooks, and an extra port for charging.

Also, this keyboard isn't subject to the 90 day electronics return policy, you can return it whenever you want for whatever reason.

Darn, I wish I would have known. Returned my costco one for the costco deal a couple weeks ago, but that Costco return policy maybe worth it as some of the reviews mention the binding area kind of wearing out pretty quickly on the cyclinder that has the extra usb-c port

Good, this should really be the standard price for this. $299 is too much.

Yah I was not expecting it to be that heavy. I am debating if I want to return it back to Amazon. Maybe a new version is coming and retailers is clearing up old products?

Rumor has it that a new iPad Pro is coming out in the Spring.

I am looking for one. I initially purchased a $60 one on Amazon, but I was not too fond of it. So, I started researching on this one vs. Logitech folio. I finally went with Logitech Folio because:

1. Logitech has more viewing angles. In this Apple keyboard, you must take the iPad out of the case if you want to read books or draw art. Apart from the angle that you see in the image above, there are no other angles this case can be adjusted to.

2. Logitech keyboard has a full row of function keys. Surprisingly, the Apple keyboard is missing that full row on the top, and a lot of users overlook that.

3. Logitech Folio provides full protection around the iPad. Apple case doesn't provide that protection.

4. Apple keyboard is attached to the case using a magnet. So, if it falls from a decent height, the chances are high that your expensive iPad may come out of the case and broken.

Don't go for the brand but think about the use-cases. I am not against Apple because I already own an iPad if I am writing this Smilie

$199 for a keyboard. Don't know where their business head is, they should make it an even $500, $1000 for backlit.

Absurd.

It's $199 *on sale*. laugh out loud

That said it's a quality product. I just think people purchase it expecting it to be a standard keyboard folio, when in fact it weighs 1.3lbs on its own. It iPad Pro 11 by itself weighs 1lb. So you're more than doubling the weight.

There is a subset of people who use an iPad as their main computing device. Heck, most people do a majority of their day-to-day computing on an iPhone. For those people, this makes sense. For the rest of us who have laptops/desktops, turning an thin-and-light iPad into a thick-and-heavy laptop defeats the purpose.

Understood. I jumped ship on OSX 20 years ago. No regrets. It's a good OS, but this kinda thing, just wow. My gf is a Mac person so I wanted to have a look, like maybe ... the purchase included 2 plane tickets to Maui.
