Keyboard Folio:
Super slim and super lightweight. You'd hardly notice the extra dimensions.
Squishy keys don't bother me at all. An occasional post as long as this is about as much as I'd ever type anyway.
Keyboard flips over entirely out of the way if you just want to hold it by hand, or prop it up against something. Therefore equally happy in portrait orientation.
Doesn't offer any drop protection.
The rubberized plastic shows signs of wear where you grip it within a few months, especially if you're in a hot environment.
Magic Keyboard
Noticeably bulkier and heavier. Nearly triples the thickness of the iPad.
Illuminated keys are the big win for me, especially if I know I'll be in a dark location.
The keys themselves are harder, but I can't say I prefer them to the squishy ones on the Folio. Again, I don't type much using a tablet.
The keyboard does not fold out of the way. This is only an issue if I want to use portrait orientation. The Folio is better for this.
The trackpad feels kinda pointless to me. My finger is an inch from the screen, so I just use that. For more precise work I'll use a Pencil anyway.
There's a little more protection for the back and the face.
I personally find the viewing angle just fine with both keyboards.
Zagg Messenger Folio
Bulkier, with much more protection. But so much bulkier that the biggest protection is that you'll never leave home with your iPad.
Older versions, compatible with my 2018 iPad Pro 11, are currently available at about $12 from Amazon. [amazon.com]
All that being said, you'd think I prefer the Folio. In fact, I mostly use the Magic Keyboard. Even though I don't type much text on either keyboard, I find the backlit keys on the Magic Keyboard to be helpful.
But both are good keyboards, and at $99, the Keyboard Folio is a steal.
