Very solid keyboard. I consider this quite the upgrade from the magic keyboard. It might take some getting used to with the higher profile and key indentions - but after one day of use I became a fan. The keyboard also feels solid and has some decent weight to it. This could be a good or bad thing if you like to travel with the keyboard - but this one remains firmly planted on the desk for me. The technology works flawlessly with my 2020 and 2021 MBPs. I have not experienced any bluetooth/pairing issues. The Flow tech works very well - much better than I would expect, but not 100% perfect. I give it a 9/10. If you work with 2 or 3 devices then you will appreciate the fact that when the mouse flows over - the keyboard does as well. Very seamless experience. You can also manually switch with the F1-F3 keys if you like. The battery life is very good so far. The adaptive backlight is a nice addition - though I turned it off to maximize battery since I never type at night. As for as the for Mac features - I appreciate the USB - C connectivity. Negatives Could have done without the emoji and dictation keys. I find it interesting that the mini version of the keyboard is priced the same as the full sized key w/ number pad. I would have expected to see apples pricing strategy of making the full sized keyboard more expensive - but not the case here. Only one color option for Mac keyboard Overall I highly recommend.

Love my MX Keys that I use for my laptops, so had to also get this mini one for my iPad mini. This keyboard has three new buttons. One in particular that I enjoy is a button for emojis. Works perfectly with Mac OS/iPad OS. The keys are tactile. The backlight helps when working in darker conditions. Each charge lasts a long time, especially if you don’t turn the backlight on all the time. These MX Keys keyboards are the best keyboards I’ve used and I can’t use any other ones anymore after trying these out. They’re on the higher end of the price tag, but totally worth the money. Paired this with the Magic Mouse and my iPad is totally on a different level of productivity. Go get yourself one. Won’t regret it! The color is also classy, which is always a plus :)

Replaced my original Apple Magic Keyboard with the MX Keys mini and like it much better than Apple’s. Keys feel better and I use the emojis and screen shot function keys more than I thought I would. I also like that I can connect three devices with it and appreciate the backlight keys. Finally, it works with Bluetooth so needs no dongle. The feel of the key is what sold me though. They are more curved so hug your fingers and are perfectly spaced apart.
