Agreed. The only reason would be for TouchID.

I just don't understand Apple's thinking. They make such great products yet their accessories like Magic Mouse and Apple Keyboard are so glaringly deficient.

I would buy an apple keyboard with TouchID in a HEARTBEAT and would pay $200 for it if it came in a MX-like black color, had illuminated keys, good key press and had TouchID

Community Reviews

Apple's Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad stands out for Mac users who want Touch ID on an external keyboard, especially in a closed-lid setup where it can wake and unlock the laptop. The extended layout, full-size arrow keys, and numeric keypad add convenience, and Touch ID gets heavy daily use for quick sign-ins. The main knocks are the lack of backlighting and mechanical switches, along with a price that feels hard to justify versus Logitech MX options or cheaper wireless keyboards. It is most compelling when Touch ID is the feature that matters most.

  • Mac users running a closed-lid laptop setup, because it can wake and unlock the computer with Touch ID from an external keyboard.

    MrShruggles

  • People who unlock a Mac many times during the workday, because Touch ID can replace repeated password entry with a quick tap.

    cph

  • Owners juggling multiple Macs or iPads, because the keyboard can act like a pseudo-KVM across Apple devices.

    Eros

  • Gamers wanting tactile switches and illuminated keys, because it has neither mechanical key switches nor backlighting.

    Dave_BCrimsonHarrier155

  • People who need a reliable Touch ID keyboard for daily login, because Touch ID can stop working and may have no permanent fix.

    KiN1597

  • Shoppers who want a cheaper Apple-style typing setup, because comparable wireless keyboards and mice can work well for far less.

"It features an extended layout, with document navigation controls for quick scrolling and full-size arrow keys, which are great for gaming."
Does anyone use the arrow keys for gaming?

This seems pricey for a keyboard with no backlight or mechanical key switches.

It's the only way to have an external keyboard that can wake and unlock(touchid) a closed lid laptop setup.

I've been running final releases as well as upcoming betas of Mac OS and sadly the Touch ID on my Magic Keyboard has been broken for the last year with no permanent fix in sight.

I honestly don't know how people like this keyboard compared to something excellent like Logitech's MX range.

My Asus wireless keyboard wakes the MacBook with closed lid fine, but I do have to use the password, of course. I saved it as a macro to one of the keys, so it's one key press, but still takes a few moments longer.

I agree i have Macbook Pro M5, mac mini M4 , apple watch, iphone 16 pro max so i love apple products one would call me a fanboy but i also have a windows gaming computer too Smilie. Having said that their accessories are so disappointing. I would love to buy magic mouse and this keyboard but i just cant justify the price. I am using this wireless keyboard https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09TW35...tle_1&th=1 for $40 and $10 wireless mouse from same company it both work great.

You have your password saved as a macro that you can use before logging into the computer?

Doesn't seem secure.
