One of the biggest things I find missing in reviews is "What does it look like/handle after months of use?" Thank you for taking the time to do this! So valuable!

Mr. Clean’s Magic Eraser sponge is a cleaning game changer. I’m sure it will easily remove the blue mark.

I have also used simple glass cleaner sprayed on a paper towel, and for tough stains an alcohol prep pad has removed anything I’ve gotten onto the case.

Keep in mind those sponges are essentially sanding off the surface so you may lose some of the matte texture. It’s probably better than a stain but don’t go overboard! Keep it precise and light.

Hey Chris! Wanted to let you you I really liked this video. Main reason being that is shows care for your audience! So many tech KZreadrs ride the wave from one hot news item to the next without considering their viewers questions/gripes. Thanks for “sitting in front of the camera and hitting record”, it proved to bring across valuable info for me for sure!

I ended up getting the white 12.9” Magic Keyboard based off your initial review and I really love it. By far it’s the best typing experience and I actually like it over typing on my 24” iMac. That said I really didn’t want to use it as a travel keyboard because it doesn’t protect the iPad Pro all that great (and this M1 1TB model is very expensive) so for traveling and using the iPad Pro out of the house I also picked up the Logitech Combo Touch with Trackpad (and detachable keyboard). It protects the iPad so much better and it’s actually a better overall case for things like annotating PDFs when I’m in meetings or for watching movies while traveling on a train or plane. The Magic Keyboard will be my go-to at home keyboard experience and hopefully I can keep my white model looking pristine for as long as possible (I’m already noticing its holding up much better than my old black Smart Keyboard Folio from my previous gen iPad) but the Combo Touch will be my go-to for traveling option. If you can swing getting both, highly recommend that! Also, a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser might remove that blue mark you have on the back of yours, but don’t rub too hard because that stuff eats through everything.

I am also doing this (buying both combo and the magic keyboard) when I pickup my new 12.9 this week. I agree that one can use the functionality of both. I was thinking that I would return one and just keep the one I liked both but I feel like the combo touch would be a better fit for someone who uses the iPad for notes and pencil use way more than a keyboard. Not sure if I will be an epic keyboarder on the iPad. Never had one before. Time will tell.

As always, my head was nodding like a bobble-head doll through the whole thing. Review was dead-on consistent with my experience. Still my favorite typing experience. Yet again, Chris puts something incredibly practical and helpful out there for those of us in the Apple ecosystem.

We have a gen 3 iPad Pro with black magic keyboard and a gen 5 with a white magic keyboard. I have noticed on the white keyboard that with a screen with mostly white when the backlit keys are on in a dark room the reflection from the screen makes the letters and symbols disappear on the keys. You can get them visible again by tilting the screen all the way back. This was an unexpected downside to the white backlit keys that I never heard anyone mention in the reviews of the white magic keyboard. Still very happy with the gen 5 iPad and magic keyboard combo. Lots of good info on your channel. Thank you.

Had my Magic Keyboard since April when I got my iPad Air 4 love the typing experience love the feel of the keys no typing issues I would recommend it to anyone who wants really good typing experience

Absolutely love the magic keyboard. What a change in performance and experience. Thanks Chris.

I don’t exactly know what it is about the iPad / Magic Keyboard combo, but I consistently pick it up before my M1 MacBook Pro to do everything first. If I run into a hurdle or need specific apps from my Mac, THEN I go get my Mac. But daily tasks like browsing the web, typing up essays, editing photos -I always end up grabbing my iPad first. Final Cut on macOS is really the reason I ever grab my MacBook, though I do know Luma is very good!

Same for me. Final Cut is the only thing that forces me to go to my M1 MacBook Pro first.

The must have accessories for the iPad Pro in my opinion is a sleeve and something like a CoverBuddy or Pitaka case. Both will provide the sides of the iPad protection, and the sleeve will keep everything safe while it’s in your bag.

Alcohol wipes or using a mr. clean magic eraser gets EVERYTHING off of the white Magic Keyboard. I also recommend D Brand skins for keeping both the black and white looking nice.

Love the typing experience as well feels good!

Magic Keyboard is my favorite iPad accessory. It’s so good I couldn’t believe it the first time I used it.

Yeah as much as I LOVE white tech accessories, there's that huge risk (and fear) of it getting dirty. Helpful update!

Clorox wipes has worked fine for cleaning my (white) folio case (not for cleaning the device or it’s screen). Also, rubbing alcohol/water mix works well.

Studio tour 2021 before New Year? 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼 Fav channel EVER!

so funny thats exactly how I feel about the iPad Pro. Always gravitate to it with quick tasks or research too. Love the magic keyboard, but your right about the pencil...it's hard to use with the keyboard angle.

Agree 100% when you say the magic keyboard is the essential iPad Pro accessory and that no other keyboard/trackpad combination or keyboard can beat it.

Hey Chris are you still using the Origrid with either of your magic keyboards? I got one after your video showing it and I'm preparing to do a full review, but I wondered if you were still using it at all.

I love the magic keyboard. It’s super intuitive.

I picked up the black Magic Keyboard off Amazon renewed for slightly less than half price for my iPad Air 4 and I love it. The typing is really nice as is the track pad.

I just got it after the price drop. I actually really like it. It feels great. however, I don't think I am gonna keep it. I just dont use my iPad enough to warrant keeping such an expensive accessory especially when I already had the iPad case that was $99 😐

Wrapped mine in a white skin and it’s great. Makes cleaning so much easier

I totally agree that the magic keyboard is the best typing experience on iPad. I still prefer the Logitech Combo Touch because it gives me my favorite features of the Surface on iPad. But typing can’t be beat on Apples keyboard.

i suggest buying a transparent keyboard cover specially if it's the black variant, so the keys don't get smudges or at least doesn't show the trail of smudges and really just protect it from dust.

This is my first Magic Keyboard with my iPadPro 2021 M1 12.9". I liked the looks of the white with the silver. The warnings said it might discolor absorbing the color of other surfaces. I like to keep things looking new, so I have been setting my white keyboard on a while cloth napkin on 99.9% of surfaces. It still looks new. I bought it after my iPad arrived a month after its release. I groaned when I splashed a colored liquid on the inside flap but didn't notice it for a day or 2. I help my breath and rubbed it with a moist cloth and then "dried" with a towel. Since the spot would be covered up by the iPad I wasn't entirely devastated even though I had had it for a month. When the spot completely dried it looked as good as new. I use it several - many times a day, every day, and it still looks new as if out of the box. I also make sure my hands are washed if I have been eating or doing other things before picking up my keyboard. Finally I love this keyboard c of the response of the keys, My typing speed has increased on this keyboard. It sits on the couch center console cover nexts to me and I am grabbing it constantly for just about everything, especially where typing is concerned. It even does well resting it on my lap. I put it in a foam lined carrying case when I take it to work and to weekly chorus rehearsals where I remove the iPad from the keyboard which goes back in the case. I held my breath spending an extra $100 for the keyboard, but I LOVE this keyboard!

I’m equally interested in how the unprotected edges of the iPad Pro have fared.

The best thing you can do for these keyboards is buy a dbrand skin to put on them

I enjoy the Magic Keyboard so much that I got both colours. Re the stains: Apply a skin! I have it on both my white and black MK, so easy to clean and maintain. Carbon fibre black skin on the black MK *chef’s kiss*

I sold my 11" M1 iPad Pro and its magic keyboard and bought the 12.9" versions. I have to say that typing on the bigger magic keyboard feels a lot nicer than on the 11" MK. The keys have a noticeable click on the bigger MK. As a writer, this new setup is working very well as my mobile workstation. Great video, mate!

@shawn fitzgerald Glad to help! I'd avoid the white keyboard. I've had white key caps on a mechanical keyboard and on a Dell XPS 13 laptop. Both needed constant cleaning from smudges.

Curious if. you have found any little peeling or splitting issues anywhere on your keyboard case. I saw that John Gruber (Daring Fireball) has a number of issues on his and several other people posted pics of theirs. I can't find where I saw it--thought Twitter but not sure. I thought probably because they hadn't been taken care of as carefully as my about 8. Mos old case (which I use every day, often in my lap--on my 2021 12.9 pro, used a bit on 2018 12.9Pro) but on close examination, found a small split at bottom right of trackpad on edge--a place I never even touch that I'm aware of. Curious if anyone else has issues--Gruber's were around several keys, others were on edges of case--its the soft material used on case. I am guessing this split on mine will result in peeling at some point--in meantime, I too use mine instead of Macbook Pro or phone (or Mini 5) most of the time.

Hey Chris! Maybe try a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser on your Apple iPad Pro Magic Keyboard. Check the package first for any warnings before using it.

The workflow is quite different between Mac and iPad. Especially the file management system. So much better on a Mac. Apple Pencil is the game changer between the two. I still can’t believe Magic Keyboard on iPad is still better than the Magic Keyboard for iMac and the keyboard on the new MacBook. I always think the bigger the better I have bought a Folio Touch. The typing experience is great, great protection and can fold around, have a little “belt” can protect my Apple Pencil from falling out accidentally.The keys and the outside is still very new after half year of use. I always use the keyboard can be detected as it’s so heavy to use when holding it. The combo touch improved further but lose the little “belt”

Try “Mr. Clean” eraser sheets and sponge. I tried that on my I-Pad Pro case (Just like yours, and white), and it got some marks, I think it was highlighter or markers. And also try some 409, or all purpose cleaner. I hope that will work. I really like my Magic Keyboard and my I-Pad Pro. I don’t feel wobbling with my keyboard. I love the extra charging port as well. I am typing on the Magic Keyboard right now. You can get both the Mac Book Pro and the I-Pad Pro, and sidecar some apps to the I-Pad Pro like Illustrator and Photoshop, to use as a tablet, in lieu of the Wacom Tablet.

All about that apple ecosystem! Yeah, you can still decide to go third party for a keyboard to pair with your iPad, but, even though it's not super hard to pair with the iPad, there's certainly still more steps towards pairing it fully. Versus, you know, just literally plopping your iPad onto the Magic Keyboard just like that. Bish, Bash, Bosh. Bob's your uncle The term "walled garden" that basically describes Apple's ecosystem is, I reckon, the most perfect way to describe the ecosystem. One you're in it, yeah everything works all well and pairs absolutely seamlessly, but, if you try and leave that "garden", you will find it's nearly impossible. BTW, this is coming from someone who is already in that "walled garden". Having an iPad with the Magic Keyboard, iPhone and the Airpods Max. Don't have a Mac though, I got a Windows PC

I don’t know if someone else already suggested it but with that texture you might want to try a magic eraser or the brand less version it worked wonders for my folio case on anything that wasn’t a permanent ink stain!

Hey Chris I’ve also got a stain on the white keyboard and its just not getting off . Can you please tell me a solution for it ?

STM Dux shell case is awesome for protection of edges, pencil and magic keyboard

I went back to my MK after trying a Brydge Max+ on my 2021 iPP. Any mouse tweaks in Accessibility controls for the iPP?

Did you try a magic eraser on that blue mark? I’m guessing it would get it off with minimal effort

I’m actually the kind of person who would buy the Magic Keyboard again in white if I marked up the one I had and could not stand it hehe😅

Something all these tech channels don’t suggest for the magic keyboard is to buy a sleeve. They cost only $10 on average and they can really can help reduce the ruin of it!

I'm planning on getting iPad Pro 11 with this keyboard and Mac Studio 👌

Yes, absolutely. Magic Eraser works like ... magic.

Hi All, Anyone have any idea why the Magic Keyboard would have issues typing when in Split View? When I have an app open and open another app in Split View or Slide Over view, I can’t type in that pulled in or the other main app. I have to close the apps or open them in full screen view for the keyboard to type in that selected app. The trackpad will click on the apps, it just won’t recognize typing. Thoughts? (2020 11” iPad Pro with 2021 Magic Keyboard and iOS 15.1)

To me, the Magic Keyboard hardware is absolute beauty of an experience. Tactile, satisfying, and high-quality. But iPadOS 15.1 sometimes doesn’t allow typing due to some cursor bugs… And this friggin bug has been with iPad since the beginning of iPadOS UGHH- Apple gotta make iPadOS more stable and I’ve been waiting like 2 or more years

I turned off “Full Keyboard Access” in Accessibility Settings, and the cursor problem went away.

The magic keyboard obviously needs the magic eraser to get that crayon out! :p

I think it depends on the user I use my white keyboard everyday and it’s still pristine

I’m getting the White Magic Keyboard for my iPad Pro 11 inch M1 Space Grey

So… I flip mine around, put my phone in between the keyboard and iPad and it keeps it at an angle I enjoy writing on. That helped me with that issue.

Try using Magic Eraser or isopropyl alcohol on that mark; works for me.

I’m a hard-core iPad user but even I don’t want to carry a keyboard everywhere with me. That’s why I like the Belkin Combo Touch better. I can remove the keyboard and use the case with a kickstand.

Try using a regular pencil eraser for the blue smudge

Mine randomnly stops working (except for the cmnd and tab keys). Unfortunately I think it's a common bug

I still prefer the smartfolio keyboard as its so much cheaper refurbished and weighs so much less to keep my ipad portable!

Get a magic eraser cleaner to get that off. I also got a sopiguard skin on my black magic keyboard and it works great but keys are still grimmy

I know I’m late to the Magic Keyboard party but, I got mine the other day in the mail and I don’t see myself going to any other keyboard case. Why did I wait so long lol? Oh, I know why. They’re too expensive lol. At $300-350, that’s crazy but, at the deal I got mine at, I’d definitely do it again.

is this for the ipad air

Are there any details on the pencil skin 👀

I’m on my second black keyboard. Never worn a keyboard out before. First time for everything, I suppose.

Mr. Clean Magic eraser, Bro!

Regarding wear and stains: you can buy, at a premium price, furniture, electric guitars, and blue jeans that are "pre-stressed"/have built-in patina. I hope Apple doesn't get any ideas...😉

Same sentiments! :)

Heavy Apple Pencil users should probably get Apple’s keyboard folio or a Logitech case instead but I LOVE this thing

Use a slightly damp magic sponge and it should come off

I appreciate the follow-up. I really want a white one for my silver iPad Pro 12.9". I'm using the previous generation in black with a blue skin. Mr. Clean Magic Eraser sponge for cleaning your MK? Or would that harm it? Please don't bring your clacking mechanical keyboard to my coffee shop ;) Just kidding its noisy anyway ;)

That Apple Pencil situation is what made me pick up the Smart Keyboard Folio instead. Flipping the keyboard back is just so much easier than having to constantly take the iPad on and off the Magic Keyboard.

Hey buddy, try eucalyptus oil (or baby oil. they are the same thing). It is the only thing that removes the blue jeans stains on my white apple watch sport strap.

Need that d brand skin on these. I’m really envious of these keyboards but just can’t get myself to spend the money and know to protect from things like this (dirt) you have to spend even more on the accessory 😐

Tried Magic Sponge (Mr Clean brand)? That's truly a magic cleaning product...lol

What is the pencil skin?? I need it show meee

Hey, how about you try mr clean magic eraser? Maybe that’ll help. ;)

I also really hate it when I have to take my iPad Pro off the Magic Keyboard and write/draw on it. The Magic Keyboard would just sit there taking up space if I don't close it. And if I do close it it's an extra annoyance. It's got so bad that I'm thinking of replacing my Magic Keyboard with a non-keyboard folio case, since my main PC keyboard is the Logitech G913 TKL, which has a one-key switch to Bluetooth connection. For on-the-go usage, I'm probably gonna get the Logitech Pop Keys and Pop Mouse set. With a colorful folio case for the iPad Pro to match. The Magic Keyboard really is for people who predominately type on the keyboard, not for people who does a lot of typing and a lot of Pencil work.

As others suggested an eraser should do the job

Nail polish remover might Work. 🤔

Would rather have a silver one in a smudge-resistant case

Use wipes wit

I had purchased the black one and I knew its texture was a dust catcher so I just put on dbrand’s skin. Problem solved.

Goof Off will remove that stain easily.

Mr Clean magic eraser may clean it.

This video would’ve been perfect if you kept revisiting the blue stain on the back of the case until the video finally became about your mission to get rid of it.

Use a magic eraser to get the crayon mark off. It will get most things off without any problems.

if it's wax use a hairdryer and wipe it off. if it's pen, hairspray.

Too pricey for me. I just finger type and use it the way it was intended to be used. I am good with that.

You have to use Clorox to clean it

Really late response here, but try a magic eraser.

Use an Eraser

We need different colours and a product to keep the keyboard white and love the colour but I don’t want it to get dirty !
