Description of Keyboard Apple Magic Keyboard

The Magic Keyboard combines several innovations at once: a thin design, a built-in rechargeable battery, and an improved key mechanism. With a low profile and optimized travel for each key, as well as a scissor mechanism that enhances key stability, typing on the Magic Keyboard is comfortable and accurate. The keyboard connects to your Mac automatically and is ready to use right away. The battery lasts a long time: it powers the keyboard for a month or more without recharging.

Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good one.

The overall impression is positive, it is necessary to take. I am attaching photos of this keyboard next to the old version and with the current macbook: I really missed them before buying.

Pros
  • Here and below I compare with the previous generation keyboard Inside everyone needs a Lightning cable. The keyboard has been on the keyboard for more than a month, and has not yet charged it, but we charge iPhones with a roommate all the time. No need to buy batteries/accumulators. The angle of inclination is smaller, which means that the keyboard is more ergonomic. Buttons sit more firmly in their sockets.
Cons
  • I expected exactly the same keyboard as in the new macbooks. The old Pros and Airs had a keyboard that was millimeter-same as Apple's previous external wireless keyboard, and the fingers felt the same. The same keyboard is not the same as before, but not the same as on the new macbooks. In short, they set up a zoo.

I'm completely satisfied with the product, it works.

After using MS's ergonomic keyboards for a long time, this one is particularly noticeable in the need for an uncomfortable bend in the wrist when touch typing, in my case this is especially noticed by the left hand. I immediately remembered why I switched to ergonomic keyboards :-) But in practice, I noticed that I began to place my fingers not on the traditional FYWA OLJ, but rather on YTSUA OLJ - this way the left wrist takes on a more natural position.

Pros
  • - Stunning design - Compactness - Runs for a long time on a single charge
Cons
  • - In the upper right corner there is a button for ejecting a disk from a disk drive, which has not been anywhere for 100,500 years. The button cannot be reassigned to anything else. - Inconvenient double arrows up and down - Short left shift, although you get used to it

Excellent quality, absolutely not expected for such a price.

I advise you to buy for those who do not like the abundance of wires on the table, and who have little space on the desktop. I have already bought a second keyboard for my wife, I have been using mine for about 2 years, during all this time I have never regretted the purchase.

Pros
  • - Minimalistic design (for those who like it) - Compact - Excellent key travel - Charging keeps around a week of active use
Cons
  • - Perhaps not as cool to feel as the keyboard on the latest Macbooks (minimal button travel and a characteristic pleasant click, but, again, not for everyone) - No backlight - Uncomfortable "up" and "down" keys - they are half-sized and not always possible to hit them, although it becomes easier with time

Not exactly what I wanted, but basically everything is fine.

For some, it will be a direct plus that the built-in battery, but I change batteries on the Logitech 380 once a year and a half, if not less often, while I print a lot, the apple one needs to be recharged every couple of months. Logitech 380 doesn’t make any noise at all, it’s the same in size, it’s in white, I ended up sending my apple keyboard to ebay, well, I couldn’t use it, it’s very noisy, empty buttons, a small gap between the buttons, the arrow buttons can’t be groped, the buttons…

Pros
  • Slim, built-in battery, cord included
Cons
  • small slope Huge noise Slightly firm buttons No perceptible border between buttons fn key instead of ctrl If you take and shake the keyboard or move your hand over the buttons, there will be a rattle.

The perfect keyboard for those who type a lot. Completely unsuitable for gaming. Be sure to change the layout: ctrl and cmd in places. For Linux, I recommend kinto. Sh, it's really more convenient. I tried to write cons objectively, they are insignificant for me, so I bought it and am satisfied. The keyboard quickly pays for itself; ) Different pros: - Design - Compactness - No wires - Holds a charge for a long time - Short key travel - Pleasant tactile and acoustic sensations Got cons:…

The product is working, I will not repeat it for sure.

The keyboard isn't perfect. However, Apple does not do anything perfect, otherwise they would not earn. I doubt that with custom mechanics for the same money there will be fewer questions. And if we take into account that the magic keyboard keeps charging for a month, then they are not competitors at all. If you need a working tool here and now, the magic keyboard will be brought from the nearest store in a matter of hours or days and you can work comfortably. If you have time to choose, you

Pros
  • The compact keyboard does not take up much space on the table and will fit in any backpack. Unlike keyboards with numpad, it does not interfere with using the mouse with the right hand. When typing, it emits a pleasant rustle due to the backlash of the keys. The most convenient button layout, 100% compatible with poppy. Some write about the fact that the Caps Lock key works every other time - this is an intrusive protection against accidental presses, the button must be held briefly with each press. Handy brightness and volume buttons, but out of the box they won't work for an external monitor. But there are other convenient buttons, for example, to open the application menu or “next track”. Awesome packaging, as always. Take off the film, you will be happy
Cons
  • Some keys creak, and they started a day after the purchase. Basically, it concerns the Enter key. When pressed, it creaks like an unoiled swing. I did not expect that it would be necessary to additionally bring it into working condition after purchase, disassemble it, lubricate something, etc. Bad experience.

I am satisfied, the purchase is quite successful.

There are 2 possible ways to make Magic Keyboard friends with Windows 10 - either Magic Keyboard Utilities (paid, but simple and stable distribution), or find Boot Camp 6.1 (free, but you have to look). For those who still decided on Boot Camp: 1. Find the Brigadier utility on GitHub and follow its instructions (yes, we read the manuals) 2. Use it to download the latest Boot Camp (for example, for the MacBookPro14.2 model) 3. Install Boot Camp completely, then through "Remove Programs" remove…

Pros
  • Layout, key travel, battery, size, design, comfort
Cons
  • Under MacOS - did not try. Under Windows 10: 1. Problems with drivers, you need Boot Camp at least version 6.1 2. Without drivers, the FN key does not work, respectively, even Ctrl + Alt + Del can not be pressed 3. After a couple of years of use, the brush began to hurt 4. The battery charge is not reflected (but it charges quickly)

Satisfied with the product, I recommend it to everyone.

Like all Apple devices, the keyboard is made with high quality, beautifully, it is pleasant and comfortable to work with it, it will decorate any desktop. But what I did not expect was the lack of backlighting in the keyboard for 8k! After a couple of weeks of use, I already got used to it, but still there was a sediment . for such a cost, it would be time to embed the backlight and touch ID in 2022, and Apple continues to ask for an overprice cost for a product that needs ating.

Pros
  • Design, compactness, autonomy, build quality.
Cons
  • No backlight

I wasn't thrilled with the product, but it can be used.

Its pros: Design, good wireless performance and battery life. Better than similar other models, similar designs. With its cons. Too thin, mechanism of clicking buttons, loud noise when typing, sticky and weak fastening of the command keys and the spacebar (maybe they will fly out soon).

The quality is top notch, be sure to try it.

Pros: No need to purchase batteries, compactness, low key profile, and good looks. Has cons: Rather, the disadvantage of macOS is that the eject key from the drive cannot be reassigned by standard means. It's not needed on a MacBook.

The average product, you can find a better one.

Compared to the built-in keyboard on the 2022 MacBook Pro, it's a disappointment. Despite the fact that I have been using only the Apple Magic Keyboard for a long time, it is very nice to return to the MacBook keyboard. I tried a brand new keyboard in the store: better sound, much less treble. Therefore, I assume that the keyboard wears out over time and starts to click. The battery holds 30 days of average activity (this is an advantage or a disadvantage, decide for yourself).

Pros
  • 100% support for macOS features. Great look. Pleasant to the touch.
Cons
  • If the keyboard is on a chipboard table (most likely, you have such a table), then the sound of the keys will be annoying, your colleagues and roommates will hate you. The sound is high-frequency, clattering. When you just run your hand over the keys, there is also an uncomfortable sound. The sound isn't as loud as the Apple Wireless Keyboard, but it's annoying nonetheless. It becomes much more pleasant to type when you put on headphones or lay the keyboard on a towel. When typing, the fingers are hard, but this is not significant, and in general it does not interfere.

Double impressions. From working with the keyboard, only positive impressions, but everything was spoiled by a breakdown after a year of use. If you can’t fix it somehow else for sane money, then I’ll seriously think about buying a new one. Has pros: - The charge lasts a couple of weeks - There are no glitches, it works properly - Ergonomics suits With its cons. - So-so reliability - Broke exactly after 1 year and 10 days. Just stopped responding to pressing Enter and Shift (both). Didn't fill…

The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

A few advantages: First and foremost, the keyboard has an incredible design; in particular, when placed on a desk that is relatively clear of other objects, it is a delight to look at. And in general, I never get sick of being in awe of her. + Comfortable and functional, at least when paired with an Apple computer + After several weeks of consistent use, the battery was initially charged to somewhere about 70%, however there is now just 50% of its capacity remaining. That is the kind of…

Not perfect quality, there is a small defect.

unjustifiably expensive, a rattling Chinese craft, its price should be 3 times less. Unfortunately, I did not find analogues, you have to overpay. Peded purchase try, do not take without looking, it may be better to take the previous model. With its pros. layout like a laptop with the fn button in the right place, wireless Has some cons workmanship, quality of materials, angular buttons, cheap plastic, the keyboard itself is angular

I recommend to buy, the product is of high quality.

It is strange that Xiaomi did not make a similar keyboard in their line, there would be a great demand. I bought it for Ipad pro, I do not regret it is worth my money. The original keyboard for Ipad pro costs a lot, but in fact it's just rubber with a microcircuit. Got pros: Excellent design and quality, there are no analogues in size. Ideal for tablets larger than 10 inches. The charge holds for a very long time. Got cons: If you don’t have a poppy, then it’s impossible to determine the charge

I bought a keyboard for use with the Zenbook 14, since analogues from other manufacturers were not satisfied with the quality of keystrokes. The keyboard is extremely light, comfortable, as soon as you turn on the computer, it is already connected to it and ready to work. Of course, a lot of F1 keys, etc., do not work as a change in brightness, sound, but this, I think, is always taken into account by everyone when buying an apple device to combine it with products from other companies.

Pros
  • Build quality, design
Cons
  • The back panel is very scratched from dust particles that are on the table
