A very comfortable and functional case/keyboard. It looks very clean and Apple-esk. Easily connects and easy to use. The magnet is strong and dependable. The size is a bit bulkier than your average case, but not uncomfortably so.

Great device. Questionable refurb job. Will be returning.
By Philip Gundlach on Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2023
If you’re combing through these reviews, you’re probably thinking the same thing I was: I love the laptop form factor of the magic keyboard case! But at the time of this review, a new iPad Gen 9 is only $50 more than the keyboard. 300 bucks is a bit rich for my blood. But an amazon refurbished version is very appealing at this price point. I felt safe knowing I had 3 months to guarantee my happiness with the device and I felt like I could trust Amazon to refurbish it properly. I will say the packaging was great (mine came in a generic white box with foam padding between the back and the keyboard) and it looked absolutely brand new. All the backlighting was working, it immediately began working as soon as I let my iPad snap into the frame, Everything appeared to be functioning as if It was brand new. They don’t really make mention of this, but the magic keyboard is surprisingly well padded and I feel confident that my device is adequately protected against everyday use when it is closed. Unfortunately: the key feature other than trackpad and laptop form factor that I purchased this for does not work. I purchased this with the understanding that it is one of the only ways that lets you charge the iPad through the keyboard and not the one USB-C port on the actual tablet, but rather allows you to charge through a USB-C passthrough on the left side of the hinge cylinder. For me, this was to free up the USB-C port to allow me to VNC into my Raspberry Pi 4 via a USB-C to USB-C cord directly to the iPad. This grants me a way to essentially have Linux on my iPad. Well, I have not been able to get charging via the keyboard to work. Which is disappointing. Now I have to decide to charge my iPad OR run my linux machine on the RPi. Going to try several charging blocks, but I will most likely be returning this one and biting the bullet on a $300 new one and get the functionality that I actually wanted.

I am blown away. Get this refurbished iPad Keyboard over other 3rd party keyboards.

I would 100% recommend getting this refurbished iPad Keyboard over 3rd party keyboards. It looks brand new! I would not have thought it was refurbished. I bought this for my 2024 M2 iPad Air. It works amazingly. This keyboard is kind of heavy it might add some weight to your backpack. It is very very easy to place and remove the iPad from this keyboard. The backlit keys do get bright enough. The magnet is definitely strong enough too. The trackpad is very smooth! I had a keyboard case from ESR, and the trackpad felt very delayed and laggy. This one works just like a laptop! My only complaints are that the keys are kind of tight. I feel like there isn’t much key space. Also the ipad sticks out a little so sometimes when you want to quickly type a number you might accidentally hit the iPad. My last complaint is that to change the backlit key brightness, you have to dig deep into settings to adjust the keyboard brightness. Other than that, I love this keyboard so much
Awesome

This was one of my best purchases. I got the keyboard refurbished in excellent condition, and it looks and works like it’s brand new. I started out with a keyboard from ESR, and the extra money for the magic keyboard is worth it. Everything works so much smoother. The trackpad is actually quick, the keys are easy to press.
Great iPad Keyboard!

The refurbished Magic Keyboard for the iPad Pro 11 is an outstanding addition to my tech setup! Despite being refurbished, it looks and feels brand new, with no signs of wear or tear. The build quality is exceptional, maintaining Apple's high standards. The keys are tactile and responsive, making typing a breeze. The backlighting is a nice touch, perfect for low-light environments. The trackpad is smooth and responsive, offering a laptop-like experience. The magnetic attachment is strong, ensuring stability while using the iPad. Overall, this keyboard transforms the iPad into a productivity powerhouse, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase!
Great deal for a great keyboard

This is hands down the BEST keyboard for the iPad on the market. Unlike all the other third party Magic Keyboards, this one utilizes the smart connector on the back of your iPad rather than Bluetooth. As such there is almost no noticeable latency when using the touchpad. The keys feel firm and tactile although I would like there to be a dedicated escape key (you could still program it to the globe key). Adding a keyboard to your iPad will inevitably increase its weight, but it is manageable and is still very portable. There is little to no protection on the sides of the iPad, only the front and back. As an Amazon Renewed product, this one was shipped in a bubble mailer for some odd reason, but the product survived and looked relatively unused, arriving with some Clorox lint on it. For less than half of the original price, this is a much better deal than buying brand new.
Worth it

I originally bought a replica of the magic keyboard for my iPad air 11inch on amazon which I had to return because the keys lagged/didn’t work and the track pad made an obnoxious sound when clicked on. BUT THIS MAGIC KEYBOARD IS PHENOMENAL!! I am so glad I bought a refurbished version instead, it feels brand new and has no issues at all. If you’re debating whether or not you should buy this, don't think twice. It is a game changer!
Expensive but the integration to the ipad pro is really something else.

The 2nd generation Magic Keyboard for my iPad Pro- It's like entering a world of pure magic! This bad boy has totally upped my iPad Pro game. First things first, typing on this thing is an absolute dream. The keys are super responsive and have the perfect amount of travel. I feel like I'm tapping away on a legit laptop but with all the convenience of my iPad. And don't even get me started on the trackpad. It's slick, smooth, and oh-so-precise. Navigating through apps and documents is a piece of cake. No more finger gymnastics or reaching across the screen like a contortionist. Everything I need is right there under my fingertips. The build quality is top-notch too. This bad boy holds my iPad Pro like it's glued to it. The floating design adds a touch of swank to the whole setup. Listen up, fellow iPad Pro users! If you want to crank up your productivity and take your device to the next level, the 2nd generation Magic Keyboard is an absolute must-have. It's the ultimate sidekick for work, creativity, or simply having a blast with your iPad Pro
Another great apple product

I could not bring myself to spend over $300 on the keyboard from the apple store. So instead, I ordered this renewed one. And honestly, for me, best decision. It came in the original box, the keyboard gets dirty easily, thats my only con. I even bought the black one since white would get dirtier faster. Overall, really good product

Honestly wouldn’t be able to tell difference between this and a new one. Works exactly as expected. I love that it’s stable when sitting on the couch or slouching! I wish it would tilt back a bit more but that’s fine. My pet peeve is that it does not have function keys, which seem like a luxury but are actually a necessity. I wish there were shortcuts for brightness and volume.
If you don't have a macbook and aren't planning to buy one, this is a really good buy

The ipad is so, so much more useful with the keyboard and trackpad. Go for the excellent condition ones, not worth saving a few bucks for the others. Before buying, CHECK THE SELLER'S RATINGS! For some reason there are a lot of poorly rated sellers selling this item. I picked a highly rated one. I bought excellent, and it came impressively spotless. Which is a mystery to me because after 5 minutes of owning this, you will find this gets dirty really easily. And because of that, I can confidently say it's better to buy this at half price rather than new. Even if yours comes a bit dirty, that would happen after a few minutes of owning the new one anyways. At the new price, it makes way more sense to put the money towards a Macbook instead. Despite being plastic, it feels very nice in the hand. Heavier and more solid feeling than you'd expect, so it isn't as top-heavy as I was expecting. You still can't really use it on your lap comfortably though, it will tip over. I got mine for 135ish - REALLY glad I didn't go for the Logi keyboard case. Much better to have the renewed nice one than a new cheap one. Lastly I will note I found a new scratch on my ipad screen since getting this keyboard, without dropping it or anything. I do find this ipad scratches easily, as before buying this keyboard, I dropped it once and it got scratched in a different spot. I don't know if the new scratch was from the keyboard or not, but it's just something to note.
