There is also a larger version with numeric keypad.<p><a href="https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MK2C3LL/A/magic-keyboard-with-touch-id-and-numeric-keypad-for-mac-models-with-apple-silicon-us-english" rel="nofollow">https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MK2C3LL/A/magic-keyboard-...</a>
Really sucks that Apple doesn't offer this in Space Gray and discontinued all the Space Gray Magic accessories (keyboard/trackpad/mouse)...
By the numbers, the secure enclave implementation is $50. I wonder if Logitech will get a shot at TouchID like the Crayon did for the Apple Pencil? I'd pay $50 to add it to my K380.<p>$99.00 Magic Keyboard - US English<p>$149.00 Magic Keyboard with Touch ID for Mac models with Apple silicon - US English<p>$129.00 Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad - US English<p>$179.00 Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad for Mac models with Apple silicon - US English
Not really on point, but perhaps worth noting that having had some wrist stiffness and pain lately, I tried a Magic Keyboard (not this one, the one with the numpad) as an intermediate step between my previous Majestouch 2 and Ergodox/Moonlander/Kinesis esoterica, and over the last few weeks it's actually been pretty good. I don't know if I'll stick with it indefinitely, but I'm glad I decided to give it a try; the low profile and short throw really do seem to make eight- and ten- and twelve-hour workdays significantly easier on my wrists.
I would love just a TouchID button. I have an mechanical split keyboard (Ultimate Hacking Keyboard, I love it) and I reach over to my MacBook Pro to use TouchID, but having a button I could put on my desk would be great and would solve that problem.<p>I don't see Apple making it to be honest, but I would love it.
Can anyone think of a reason why this peripheral still has a lightning port and a USB-C to lightning cable rather than a USB-C port and USB-C to USB-C cable?
Ah, the new "more round corners" Magic Trackpad is also available: <a href="https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MK2D3AM/A/magic-trackpad" rel="nofollow">https://www.apple.com/shop/product/MK2D3AM/A/magic-trackpad</a><p>If you don't know: The new (iMac) keyboard is more round on the corners and so is the trackpad.
The original title mentions with Apple silicon. Wish that was here, since many only read the titles and easy to miss that this only works with new M1 Macs.
This is awesome! Touch ID is a great feature, especially for computers (I am not sure how Face ID can ergonomically work for approving purchases as one is always staring at the screen - ie some sort of button press must be required, hence Touch ID is better as it avoids the Face ID step :)<p>Note that it appears for only Apple Silicon Macs (probably due to the security chip)
I wonder if keys in this keyboard can be rearranged to Dvorak layout?<p>I once bought to their keyboard with numpad only to discover that for some silly reason they rotated the keypress mechanism letters F and J by 90degrees. This, of course, made key rearrangement impossible.
I would love a Bluetooth or usb TouchID only accessory. I mainly use my work laptop with an external monitor and keyboard, but I have to keep the laptop open to quickly access my password vault.
Note- From what I can tell this is only for M1 powered apple computers. Ive an iMac Pro that I would be keen to use with this, but no space grey and intel chips mean I cant use this.
This keyboard is extremely ugly. I’ve noticed for a long time now a weakening in the design of Apple products. This is certainly the most disgusted I’ve been at an Apple product since 2011.
Part of me really wants one of these, but I don't want to support Apple because they're holding the web back.<p><a href="https://www.safari-is-the-new-ie.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.safari-is-the-new-ie.com/</a>
