This is the worst mouse case I've come across. I had two units and both started gong loose. Defi utely not worth the money.

No mag safe built in makes this worthless

Who wants a case?. It’s basically a necessity with our expensive ass fragile phones.

Can you use the keyboard without the case? Does the iPad attach without it?

Hey ! Thanks for the feedback of the product . Do you need to put the plastic protection on the ipad for it to attach magnetically to the keyboard ( in landscape and portrait mode as well ) ? And if the plastic case is not necessary then what is the weight of the keyboard alone ? The portrait mode is a real plus i wish the magic keyboard had ..

I bought the same one for my iPad Air 13” yesterday but shift key is not working to swap capital letter at all. Anyone knows the reason?

Just got one, and my take on it is pretty much the same but with a few added points I’d like to mention… 1. The auto off function for the backlit keyboard is 90 seconds vs 30 seconds on the Magic Keyboard, the track pad on the esr doesn’t wake the keys as the Magic keyboard does. 2. Without that port on the side as Brian mentioned, you’ll need a dongle to charge and connect an external SSD for video editing. 3. Trackpad feels a little cramped and not nearly as smooth and accurate on the ESR 4. Price isn’t as much of a difference if you search your local Best Buy for an open box Magic Keyboard, I got mine for $275 instead of $350 5. If you take the iPad off the keyboard and set it aside like he shows in the video and then use the iPad, if you need to type something the keyboard stays connected and the on screen keyboard doesn’t appear, so you have to remember to connect and disconnect it rather than the Magic Keyboard that does that instantly and automatically. All in all the ESR keyboard is ok, love the car and the pencil holder that Apple SHOULD have included, but like Brian to me it’s easy worth the extra money to get aluminum build and haptic feedback and instant on off keyboard. Hope this helps anyone else!

I own a TypeCase for my 11” iPad Pro, and it’s been great EXCEPT I’m forever clicking on things, activating things, on windows because the trackpad is so sensitive and I forget to turn it off EVERY DANG TIME I close one app and go to another or even another window within the same app! It should be the other way around. I should have the option of turning the trackpad on when I want it! not OFF when I forget it’s on. This has led to some embarrassing situations when I send the wrong message to the wrong person! One time it was almost disastrous, but I caught it in time and deleted the message! Whew!! I don’t want another trackpad that is so sensitive or that I have to remember to turn off every time the pages change! Does this one behave like that?

Can I put a lens protector within it? Thanks for your response

Can’t find this version on Amazon only the older iPad Pro 12.9

What’s better the mouse limitless 5.0 or synthesis?

Can the extra case on the esr work on the magic keyboard?

Wish the keyboard was metal like the new Magic Keyboards

Looking at the Air version, looks like they drop the media/F keys on that one. Odd.

Last time I had a mophie case was waaaayy back when the iPhone 5 was alive. Great case!

Ordering now

I would have bought this for my m4 iPad but there no function keys on the 11’’ keyboard

I was waiting for the 360 thing part...

Can you use this on your lap when sitting on a sofa?

I’ve seen bad reviews on Amazon, and one of them stated a input lag when tying,, from “The weather today is gloomy” to “Ther today is gloomy” Do you have the same issues when typing ??

Not going to lie.. I was actually going to buy this KB a few days ago but backed out since there was no reviews on it. I'll make my choice after this video.. thanks for the video btw.

Great video! I love mine! :)

Such a missed oppurtunity to attach a kick stand on the back of that seperate cover. Imagine having this, and when you take it out of the cover it can stand on its own. It would be the perfect combo of the MKB and the Logi combo touch. I would buy it immediatly for a premium.

Awesome video, really hope to win one for my 15 pro max. @124lifesaver

Can you update how it works after a month or two. That would be really helpful, thank you!

does it yellow?

I sent back the ESR for the 2024 13in iPad Pro as the touchpad was wonky and would often register phantom clicks if you have „tap to click“ enabled in the settings

Loved the video! Which kind of camera are you using for recording Brian?

Hey there. Do you notice any latency? Does it take a second to “wake” the bluetooth or does it feel just as fast as the Magic Keyboard?

Man, i never win any giveaways… hope i win this one! Great review! @stevehojr

This is such a throwback!

Compared to the magic keyboard and logitech combo touch, it works when you automatically turn the ipad on. In this case will it still work immediately when the tablet is on? Or do you have to turn on bluetooth everytime you want to use the keyboard?

Can you use it without the case?

I used to buy this case for every iPhone. The quality started dropping tho and it would fail at the charging port and get hot as hell. Apples case was a major improvement over that. I’ll stick with my Apple MagSafe battery pack tho.

1151 grams 😳

Interesting comparison! We sent you an email, take a look

I bought both the MKB and the ESR for my 13 M4 Pro. Despite the weight difference, I actually find myself using the ESR more. I find the weight actually makes it much more stable, both on a table as well as on more uneven surfaces, like a bed or couch. The MKB doesn’t have enough weight in the platform to offset the weight of the iPad and it ends up being way too top heavy for my liking.

This Mophie Juice Pack is excellent and is exactly what I need. I hope I get one. Wink Wink!

That case will safe me so much trouble in my battery dying twice a day 🤣

Wish it had MagSafe. This was my go to case back in the day. Which was a Wednesday, btw.

rigid plastic. shitty quality. no way this costs 100 bucks. should be 20.

Nice review Brian , I know it’s heavy but for the price it’s looks great especially with the detachable case 😎

Man U know damn well ur not giving away shit

I love the design but the lack of magsafe on the back was a letdown

MagSafe is a must in today’s world. I think it has potential to be great just not there just yet. 📸@dontlookformenow

Nice review Brian as always. But when you measured the devices, you measured the Magic Keyboard without the iPad in there creating more thickness. It is still thinner than the ESR. I’m still on the fence but I wish for the price the Apple keyboard had a magnetic flap to secure the pencil and allow for portrait viewing and raising it one level higher like on the ESR. Choices choices lol and maybe a slim rubber case with Magic Keyboard for some protection on that expensive device. One thing to note on the bottom hinge of the Apple Magic Keyboard is now exposed and prone to scratching now and is a little less unbalanced when tapping the screen.

I’m going back and forth myself I have the 11 pro m4 I’m rocking just the folio rebound 360 but that Magic Keyboard is calling my name

Great video thank you! Random question...if you still have the box, could you tell me what the dimensions of the box are please?

I tried to put my handles on the comment, but for some reason, it didn’t work! Either way I’m really glad that you’re reviewing this case because I used to always buy it!
