Apple Smart Keyboard Folio for iPad Pro 11-inch (2nd Generation) - Slim Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard Case with Multi-Touch Trackpad | Perfect for Work, Travel & Creative Projects

Before purchasing the Smart Keyboard, I had the Magic Keyboard with the trackpad but ended up selling it to purchase this. While the Magic Keyboard provided a better typing experience, the portability and the ability to turn the device into a writing device had its limitations. First and foremost, it serves as a protective shell, which it cannot do when you use the writing device as you must remove the case. Unless you just use your iPad to type, the Magic Keyboard isn’t worth your time.Now I return to the Smart Keyboard. The texture is unique; the external walls are silicone while the keyboard sports a rough yet soft material. The typing experience can best be described as “muted”. The keys are moderately tactile but mushy and silent in acoustics, which is a somewhat weird combination. The lack of a trackpad may make you yearn for more, but the cheaper price makes up for the sell-off.The ability to fold the case and use it for its original intention is a true selling point for myself and possibly to you. As much as I loved the look of a keyboard case sporting a trackpad, in full honesty, I stopped using the trackpad after a few days. The cheaper yet still relatively expensive price for the Smart Keyboard should be considered.Overall, I recommend the Smart Keyboard. If you must need a pointer, you can always pair the device with a bluetooth wireless mouse.
