Let me guess, you just bought an iPad Pro and heard about this awesome keyboard that is apparently magic and you went looking for more info on it. Only problem is, you loaded the page and were blown away by the price. Yeah, we've all been there. It's the curse of being an Apple fan - they make amazing products, but you're going to pay for it.
You could certainly go on another site and buy a cheap alternative at 1/4 the price, but be warned - you're going to regret it. How do I know? I did the same. I tried a cheaper alternative and it just didn't feel like a true extension of the iPad like the Magic Keyboard does. This keyboard sites on my coffee table most of the time with a charge cable plugged into the keyboard itself. If I need to knock out some work emails, I'll do it right from the keyboard. If I want to relax on the couch and play some games, I'll simple detach the iPad from the keyboard (it's magnetically connected, so it's super easy) and have a go at it, returning it to the keyboard when I'm done to charge and get protection from the case the keyboard doubles as.
I'm usually the first person out there telling people that they should look at other options when buying first party because you're going to pay for the pleasure of owning something created by the designer of the product. But in this case, Apple created something truly wonderful and I would never use an iPad without it.
One quick note though - the 11 inch iPad is smaller than the 13 inch iPad (duh...) so the keyboard is as well. The 13 inch iPad comes with a larger (and more expensive) keyboard that feels like you're typing on a true laptop. For the 11 inch, you're getting a more compact keyboard that is absolutely still functional but not as easy on the fingers as the 13 inch. I'm a larger guy though with big hands, so this could be a me problem, but I felt like it needed to be said in case you were looking at the 11 inch iPad and 13 inch iPad and wondered about the keyboards. Regardless of what you buy, you'll have the best keyboard case for your iPad for sure.

Excellent build quality and easily the best keyboard case Apple has made for iPad. The new design is thinner, lighter, and the trackpad feels closer to a MacBook than ever. Typing is solid, the hinge is sturdy, and it makes the iPad feel like a real productivity machine. Pricey, but worth it if you actually use your iPad for work.

I purchased the iPad Magic Keyboard to use with my new 13" iPad Pro tablet. The keyboard allows me to use my tablet as a small laptop and provides excellent protection for my tablet.

My Apple Magic Keyboard for my iPad Pro is seriously refined. It feels super professional, almost like it was designed specifically for seamless productivity. The keys have a great tactile feel, and it just elevates the whole experience of using the iPad. Perfect for those who appreciate a sleek and sophisticated setup.

I recently upgraded from a second gen 13-inch iPad Pro to the 11-inch M4 iPad Pro, and this meant updating all my accessories. I previously had the Magic Keyboard for my iPad and although I liked the way it worked, I didn't like how easy it was to show signs of dirt and wear, both inside and out (I actually had to purchase a second Magic Keyboard mid-life because the first one tore at the seam.
With the new one I find a MASSIVE departure from those experiences. Firstly, I went what would've been considered in the opposite direction for a person that loves to have their tech impeccable and chose a white case. After reading reviews and watching multiple YouTube videos, almost everyone mentioned that white cases stood up much better to daily wear and tear. With nearly 2 months of having the case, it's perfectly white and doesn't show a single fingerprint on the outside.
Inside is where it shines. This actually feels like a MacBook, with keys that are more responsive and an actual aluminum body that surrounds the keys and the trackpad. When opening it you feel the heft (yet not so stiff as the previous gen) and when closing it looks like a metallic book since the edge of the iPad lays perfectly flush.
And another plus is that the keyboard has its passthrough USB C charging port on the right, while the iPad has it's charging port on the left, which means you can always charge it conveniently regardless where your power plug is sitting.
I did purchase an open-box model in Excellent condition to save a few $$$, so this offset a bit of the steep price tag for the keyboard, but definitely worth it.

The keyboard replicates and types like a standard computer keyboard but more intuitive. Snaps on to my IPad with ease and closes up for better protection.

I love this iPad case, literally transforms my iPad into a MacBook Air. I’ve even had doctors comment on it while I take notes during my kiddos appt’s. Buy it, unpack it, connect it and you now have a laptop.

Personally, I think this specific product is very useful for the iPad! You don't need a computer because it's already built in! So you can work easily. It's lightweight and easy to install.

This is a great product, you don’t have to worry about charging it and it reminds you of a MacBook. It also acts as a case and can charge your iPad through the keyboard with the provided usb-c port on the side of the hinge. It’s very sleek and high quality. I really love this product.

The Magic Keyboard feels like I am typing on a MacBook keyboard… and yes, it’s expensive but so worth it. One thing I like about is is that I can tilt the screen to a level I want. Its so convenient and it is sturdy, it holds the iPad well, it won’t slip or drop. I simply love it.

I had the previous 12.9 inch iPad Pro (M2) and I was satisfied with the previous Magic Keyboard. When I purchased the 11 inch iPad Pro (M4) I knew I had to have the Magic Keyboard as well! One of my few complaints is of course the price and it does not have a fingerprint scanner.

As soon as I got Pro M4, I skimmed through the reviews of the available keyboards, functionality, availability and durability. It may have its issues as every product and price may be part of it.
Part of the reason of choosing this product has been durability, easy use and comfortability typing.

I didn't realize how easy this was to use. You just slap on your ipad and the keyboard automatically connects. Doesn't need to be charged as it just uses your ipad battery. Only thing I wish Apple would do is sell a magnetic case that protects the sides of your ipad and attaches to the keyboard. I did buy one from another company but would be great if it was built n

I absolutely LOVE the iPad 11 inch pro. It goes great with my nursing classes the keyboard and apple pen that I ordered with it! I also liked how Best Buy had it all ready for me in the same day and it was a quick and easy process on picking it up! I will definitely be back!
