Three Reasons Why I Like and Hate Apples Magic Keyboard
The new iPad Pro has garnered many praises from the tech community. Many tech reviewers and consumers who were lucky enough to get their hands on the device couldn't pinpoint any noticeable flaws. But this is the iPad we're talking about here. No matter the version, it's always been miles ahead of any tablet on the market. It's the iPad, or nothing else is my quoted motto.
Interestingly, it's the iPad Pro's accessory that has become the topic of the week and currently the most reviewed device you'll see posted on the Internet. I'm referring to Apple's Magic Keyboard, which by the way can morph the iPad Pro into a laptop.
Now Magic Keyboard has a lot going on. Many stated having a comfortable typing experience. It has a floating cantilever design, which offers an excellent viewing angle for any user. The sturdy design provides front and back protection for the iPad Pro. So what's not to like? And why I also hate it? Here are three reasons.
Reason Why I Like The iPad Pro
The actual physical keyboard features butterfly switches, which should offer a very comfortable typing experience.
Structured, sturdy design offers total protection to the iPad Pro.
The Magic Keyboard track-pad mimics the MacBook Pro in regards to functionality and performance.
Reason Why I Hate The iPad Pro
The Magic Keyboard weighs just as much, if not more than iPad Pad Pro. Once you attach the device to the keyboard, the added weight will be a detriment.
There are no escape key or function keys ( F1-F12), making it very difficult to adjust the volume or adjust the brightness levels. Penitential buyers will have to venture directly into the iPad settings to make any adjustments.
When it comes to Apple, you will be subjected to the Apple Tax upon purchase with many of their devices. The cost of the Magic Keyboard is $300. Which is a bit expensive, you think?
