- Are you looking to enhance your iPad Pro experience and make it more productive? The addition of a keyboard and trackpad can make a world of difference. In this video, I’ll be comparing the Apple Magic Keyboard and Logitech Combo Touch keyboard to see which one offers the ultimate iPad Pro setup.
After using both options for an extended period of time, I’ll share my thoughts on the pros and cons of each case and which one I believe is the better choice.
If you're looking to transform your iPad Pro into a true laptop replacement, this video is for you.

Will the elastic that holds the Apple Pencil stretch out?
@@josephhii2168 I've been using it for over a year and it hasn't seemed like it's changed at all. It's been great.
@@scottmckenna Hi, what size sling do you recommend for Logitech combo touch ?
Do either of these have rubber stoppers on the keyboard to keep it from sliding?
The Logitech is a little more cumbersome. You poor love, how do you manage to cope?
You forgot to mention two thing: You can dettach the keyboard from the combo touch, turn it around and attach it again, so it folds back with the keys being on the inside. This way you don't have to worry about where you left the keyboard after using it. Number 2: the combo touch is finger print free!
Valid points for sure.
Thanks for that comment I had no idea!
I have a combo touch for the iPad (9th gen). You can't attach the keyboard the other way around and fold it back with the keys on the inside.
Maybe not all models do that. Because you definitely can with the model in this video.
@@scottmckenna I have just bought an iPad Air (5th gen) and Logitech Combo Touch for it. I can confirm that it can be attached backwards and folded back with the keys on the inside. Thanks to your review!
having owned the magic keyboard for my iPad air for nearly a year now, I love the design and so many people have asked how its floating and literally looks like magic. Also, the keyboard feels like a macbook in my opinion, probably uses the same structure idk. But as you mentioned in the video, having no function row is really annoying when using it like a laptop, and the limited adjustment is also annoying as sometimes, i like to have it extended a little further but you simply cannot. And the biggest annoyance is when you take the ipad off the case, there is no case for you to protect the device or even use as a kickstand. So for that reason, as a student, anyone looking for a keyboard for their ipad, i would personally recommend the logitech combo as it has a detachable design where the case still stays on the ipad and has more screen adjustment as well as a function row. But, for typing on your lap which I do a lot, as the magic keyboard has a flat bottom, it's easier to rest on your lap like an actual laptop instead of the logitech which is designed like a surface device. But whichever you pick, I'm sure will suit your needs.
I just got the 12.9 inch m1 iPad Pro last month after using the 11 inch 2018 model iPad Pro for the last two years. Got the magic keyboard for both and its been incredible in both sizes. All the keyboard shortcuts and having zero lag on the trackpad/keyboard has been great. I use my ipad as a laptop most of the time, almost to the point where I forget that I can remove it from the keyboard. Its pretty clear they were built to go together from how well they work with each other.
I have used/owned both keyboard cases. For me, I like the Logitech a little better but, honestly, you can’t go wrong with regard to quality. I agree with you that I wouldn’t recommend any other keyboard case beyond these two at this point.
Agreed.
I purchased third party keyboard (designed like logitech) but the angle of the ipad and keyboard was awkward for me so after a month i decided to purchase apple magic keyboard and i’m Loving Loving it! The raised feature for the screen makes a whole lot of difference. The downside is as he said, there’s is no stand/protection for the ipad once you use take it out.
I had a 10th gen iPad th-cam.com/users/postUgkxhcEDB3r-OJ3_X5hQzr7k1ZofTQy1ao_U . Felt it getting pretty slow at times even after doing a reset. So I am using that as a tablet for my 5 year old son and got this 9th gen version. MUCH faster, a little slimmer, smaller bezels, all around a leap forward. Plus, for the price that’s about $130-$150 cheaper than a current new model this is a nice deal. I look forward to the M-series CPUs coming into iPads which will really help future proof these tablets better but these latest CPUs are pretty strong and should do better to last several years with no compromises.
Thank you for such a thorough review & especially for the Stylus Sling to hold the pencil. Definitely like the Logitech Combo Touch over the Apple Magic Keyboard. I disliked that iPad kept falling off the Magic Keyboard, in addition to not having a protective case around that fits around the iPad. Even with being careful, Ipad like anything can fall. For those reasons I have returned the Magic Keyboard. Logitech Combo Touch provides better protection, the kick stand even provides for a nice secured hold with my fingers in multiple areas when I remove the iPad from the detachable keyboard. Go Logitech!!
i originally bought the ipad for art, so i bought it with apples smart folio, which was amazing. and then i bought the magic keyboard for school, and i can easily switch between the 2 cases when its needed. if i need to work on an assignment, ill pop it on the keyboard, and if i want to sketch, i simply take it off, and put it on the smart folio. so, yeah
Excellent review. I have seen four similar reviews, yours is the clearest and best. Thanks.
The Logitech Folio has a flap for the pen and it's viewing angles are awesome. I use it for my iPad Air 4 and the fact that I saved 130 odd dollars (compared to Magic Keyboard) was the cherry on top!
Thank you. Just what I needed, a concise comparison that cuts to the chase.
I just watched this after I purchased the Logitech and this video makes me feel better about my decision so thank you!
I decided to keep both, and I use them both at different times.
does the logitech support the finger motions on the track pad?
Me too. I love the Logitech. Far more convenient. I’m glad I chose it.
@@ryansparzak8822 Yes it does.
I’ve been thru 4 different Logitech keyboard cases for iPads over the years. They always fail, the keys stop working, they are junk. I just bought the Apple keyboard and the keys are a much higher quality
Good call out on the benefit of the pass through charging on the apple keyboard. What that brought to mind, along with promoting going case less like a desktop machine, says to me apple designed their keyboard to be used in a desktop, stationary, scenario. To use the pass through charging you have to be physically attached to something that’s probably attached to a wall unless you’re using a battery.
So happy to see this video ,i purchased the Logitech 1 day before i seen this video ..great job on the video
This was amazing thank you so much!
I truly appreciate when videos are factual and straightforward. You literally just saved me from opting for the Magic Keyboard and making THAT mistake. Many many thanks!
Thanks for the great review, I went with the Touch Combo, for the ability to separate and the added protection.
Glad that case will work our great for you.
Very helpful video - thanks 😊
Awesome review and comparisons, thanks man!
Great video, impressively concise and helped me decide 👍
A few things not mentioned: 1. Magic keyboard raises the screen higher towards your eyes and closer to your fingers. So it's more ergonomic for both viewing and touch. 2. The Magic Keyboard is more "lapable". It doesn't have a kickstand to dig into your legs. 3. Both designs have minimal screen wobble upon touch, but the Logitech is a little better in this category.
Then again, I wouldnt deem it more lapable because at the end of the day, it'll always be top heavy, and the Logitech keyboard has the kickstand for that extra support.
I don’t have any issues with this at all. It stays perfectly without any wobble. Even if there were a little bit it still looks 100 times better than any other option out there.
You absolutely have zero „screen wobble“ on the Logitech. Together with the function row it makes for me the superior case/keyboard.
@@mannyislikethat when i first got my ipad pro for school i got the combo touch, as on paper it seemed like the most ideal option, however it only took 3 months of daily use before the trackpad broke (lots of glitching and not tracking movement properly). While my gripe is not build quality (its likely i just had a defective unit as this isnt a widespread issue it seems) when i went to return it at the apple store, instad of exchanging i got the magic keyboard. And have been using it for the last year and a month. In terms of lapability the logitech is near impossible for actual use, with the edge of the kickstand often going over the knees and you having to adjust how you sit just so it balances. The function keys while nice, havent been something ive missed once i got accustomed to using the command centre with the quick actions, and in terms of daily driving, its hard to see any other option than the magic keyboard here.
i find that these tech reviewers can sometimes blow things way out of proportion, prehaps due to skewed perspective from being surrounded by newer and newer tech constantly. But screen wobble isn’t something i notice, and the function row issue is a little overblown.
lastly, the one advantage the logitech has is leaning it all the way back for apple pencil use, however in practice the kickstand is too flimsy to allow for a reliable work surface. Of course the magic keyboard has no real solution (i imagine apples marketing spiel was that you’d have both the keyboard and the magic folio case, and you’d hotswap between them) But i did find this little trick where you can nestle the ipad in the groove at the bottom of the keyboard, and tilt it back, providing a lower and stable surface (though this is nothing but a little hack, not a real fix)
@@SuperSocks7 wait, can you please explain your last paragraph? Do you mean resting it on the Magic Keyboard when it’s closed? Sorry, I didn’t really get what you were saying but really trying to find a solution for the same issue.
The stylus sling recommendation was the best part of the video for me. I love my magic keyboard. Thanks! Plus a well rounded video!
Yes. I love my stylus sling as well. Super useful.
@@scottmckenna Where can I buy it? Do you have a link ?
@@scottmckenna Where can I buy it? Do you have a link ?
I would love a link also🙂
Thanks Scott. Great real world review. Both cases are great, what is your personal application. I lean your direction, love that I can snap a protected iPad away from the keyboard.
Greatly explained thank u I make my mind..
Great review. I really enjoyed it. The Stylus Sling looks like a useful product. I think I'll go with the Logitech case for its versatility.
I wavered between the Apple Magic Keyboard and the Logitech Combo Touch. And now I can decide which is the best for me. Thanks a lot.
Thanks. Really help make my decision.
Great review, based on your suggestions I’m going to get the Logitech case. 😊 Could you link the sling you have your apple pen please?
Logitech seems more compatible with why someone would buy an iPad in the first place - the flexible workflow. Personally a folio case plus k380 keyboard has been 👌🏻
that’s my setup lol
That's my set up too!
Except mine is a Zugu case with a k380 keyboard.
Yes but what about the trackpad ? It’s so convenient for productivity. The Magic Keyboard is a (expensive) dream.
I totally agree man!! Why would you buy an ipad case that doesn’t allow you to use it like an ipad lol 😅
Great review! Balanced views
Awesome review. I'm sold!
Just bought the Logitech Combo Touch for the main reason you mentioned - detachability. I use my iPad in sidecar a LOT, watch movies on it, etc, so the detachability is a huge value add for me. This video also showed me that the Combo Touch was more adjustable than I initially realized (I thought the kickstand distance was pretty static, apparently it's not). This makes the case even more valuable for me.
Glad the video was helpful. I ended up using the Magic Keyboard more for everyday use but that’s because I use the iPad more as a computer then tablet.
Excellent comparison, just what I needed. many thanks
Glad it was helpful. Thanks.
that stylus sling is AMAZING i may just get the magic keyboard for it
Hands down, the BEST comparison I’ve seen. Thanks.
Glad to heat it was helpful.
Great and helpful review. I love the Logitech setup a lot!
Damn! That was a very well written video👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks for the kind comment.
Great review. Thanks.
I recently bought the magic keyboard & iPad Pro 11 for PT course readings, Zoom & essays during downtime at work. After a couple days of justifying paying more than my MacBook Air, I exchanged for a Logitech folio on sale & an iPad Air 64GB (use cloud storage) over the iPad 10.2. Didn’t feel right paying $1400 + tax CAD 😄🤔
Excellent review.
The extra keys, the detachability, different angles, the slot for the pen, better protection and the price drove me to the Logitech one over apples. If Logitech just had a passthrough charging port it would be more or less perfect.
I agree about the pass through port. That would be the best for me.
Logitech for sure. The only Magic thing about the Apple Keyboard, is the price .. lol
hello, what are the cons of the logitech keyboard? if there is any
@@pasiaedcharles9198really only the lack of pass through charging persobally
Solid review.
Great review! I also share the same views as you! I love the ability to detach the keyboard, also it provides protection to my iPad.
Think I’m going to invest in the combo. Decisions decisions
Awesome review!
Awesome review! I have the Apple Magic Keyboard on my 2020 iPad Pro 12.9 and love it. I'm getting the new 2022 iPad Pro 12.9 (giving the 2020 to my daughter) and looking at both keyboard options you've reviewed. One complaint for both of these keyboards would be the added weight. I would think the Logitech adds even more but with better protection as it's a full case. It's a trade-off. I think you've convinced me to go with the Logitech as I really like the idea of kickstand without the keyboard. I don't travel enough to be concerned about the added weight. Thanks and nice job!
I have both of these cases, and I have to say that both are very good cases. But the choice will go down to use case. If you are someone who will type a lot on your iPad, the Magic Keyboard is the way to go. The angle is great for typing and I personally find that it is not as fatiguing to type on it as compared to the Combo Touch (perhaps due to the CT’s 70gf operating force vs the MK’s 60gf). But if you are someone who will use the iPad more as a tablet (in my case, as a writing tablet with the Apple Pencil), the CT is better because you can keep it in the case and use it as a tablet.
Exactly.
Stylus Sling!! Thank you!! 😊
Best thing ever.
BTW, I’ve watched this video at least 6 times-this is a GREAT review!
Such a practical video
I’ve had my Magic keyboard now for 2 years and I absolutely love it. I love the feel of the keys, and it fits nicely on my lap, a pillow or laying in bed. I don’t use function keys, so that’s never been a problem - I just swipe down to access the controls I need. I do a fair amount of writing with the case also. At those times I either flip the case around, or snatch it off and write on the closed case. Either way works, and I haven’t felt it was an issue. Lastly, the viewing angle has never been a problem. I tried the Logitech and it just takes up way too much space on my desk, and can’t be used in tight spaces.
What exactly do you mean by flipping the case around? I'm considering buying a Magic keyboard for college classes, and I enjoy writing my notes directly into goodnotes with my apple pencil. I thought the magic keyboard did not let you flip the display around so that the ipad can lay on top of the keyboard, but if that's possible I would definitely like to invest in it. It seems like the best option over the logitech case for someone who will be using it on the horribly undersized desks in auditorium lecture rooms, since the base support is the keyboard itself.
This is an excellent video . You have a new subscriber!!!!
Great vid
Thanks
Dear Sir. Nice review, thank you ❤
I’m an Apple guy but after much research got the combo touch. I was concerned with the trackpad but it works great! It’s much more versatile than the magic.
and is like half the price! I have the combo touch too and think it's great. i can't justify buying the Magic Keyboard when it doesn't have the row of function keys. i've seen excuses from apple stans that said there isn't enough room but i call bullshit on that - Logitech figured it out.
Solid review. Thanks homie
Thanks
Thanks for sharing!
Apple agrees with this option as well considering its one of few brands sold by Apple on their site, and in-store.
Great review. I purchased the Logitech Combo when it first came out and have not been disappointed. I was weighing up between Logitech and the Apple keyboard, but really you cannot compare them both. The Logitech is so multi functional. During the work day i can have it sit in front of me without the keyboard and use Universal Control with my Mac’s magic keyboard and trackpad. After work i can use it on the couch for personal emails and browsing etc. Use it without the keyboard for cooking or later watching content. All the while, protected with a nice case. I do agree if you only use your iPad Pro on a desk, maybe Apple’s keyboard is best. If you want something to take with you wherever you go, the Logitech Combo case is the outright winner.
After this review, I actually decided to go back to the Magic Keyboard primarily because of the keyboard and usage. I find the Logitech very uncomfortable on my lap or even desk in comparison to the true keyboard experience on the magic keyboard. I thin the Logitech is more versatile for sure, but for me, it's more about using it like a computer since that's how I use my iPad most often and the magic keyboard is quicker and more efficient to me.
@@scottmckenna Loved your review and was just about to buy the Logitech-grateful I saw this. I guess it takes some time to know how a product will work IRL. Now I’ll look for more recent reviews by you 😊
By far the best comparison that I have found. Great work! And I agree on the Logitech as #1.
Thanks for the kind words. I will say that after this review for the last year, I have actually switched back to the Magic Keyboard. As someone who types and uses it like a computer more than anything else, the magic keyboard is better for that purpose.
Good review. You touched on all the fine points.
Glad it was helpful.
Really helpful. I'm buying the Logitech. Thanks a lot Scott.
I prefer the keyboard folio over the magic keyboard except for the fact that those folios and smart covers break on me a year or two in. The logi keyboard looks like a super great alternative
I definitely don’t like the Apple Keyboard folio case, I don’t like how close it is to screen. It feels small and hard to type on. The magic keyboard feels natural
Really like the thoughtful content for this clip, Scott! 👌 I myself more prefer the MKB as following reasons:
1. Power plug: it is the game changer for all, as the most two dongles that I need to use is SSD and Power. Thus, for the already power plug in I could save the rest Thunderbolt 4 for the SSD conveniently and effectively.
2. The gestures: surely it is so efficiency for user as just open and use it rightaway, instead of adjusting like Logi.
3. The Ipad itself while without MKB: in contrast with you, i found the easily deattachment of MKB with Ipad is the pro for user as it is so convenient. For protection now you would protect it with skin to the back or paperlike to the front.
This still be my best option of Ipad Pro now and it would continuously for a while.
Thanks and cheers!
two things*
@@cashmoneyhoes ??
Thank you for saving me the money!
After a year of using the Logitech, I’m still a fan, aside from the weight.
I’ve had two Apple keyboards (not the Magic), and the material of the cover is both a fingerprint magnet and begins to wrinkle and flake after a few months. The Logitech has a cloth surface that suffers from neither issue.
Also the Logitech features full side coverage and protects the Apple Pencil on the top where it stays charged - that’s a big deal for me. And the keyboard folds back so I don’t need to remove the iPad from the case to hold it in my hand.
And, oh yeah. The Logitech is roughly half the price.
Great review. I’ve just bought an iPad A ir and I’m just exploring the benefits of using it in combination with my MacBook Pro for work purposes (email, slack, chrome, Evernote mainly)
While I am enjoying using a separate portable device, I can’t put my finger on why it’s better than using the Macbook? Sure it’s less cumbersome and I am enjoying the change up and portability, but on paper the differences are minimal. What am I missing?
Great quality video/review. What mm lens did you use for filming this?
100% agreement of what you say about this topic
The best part for me about the Magic Keyboard is the design of incorporating the pass though USB C on the opposite side of the IPAD USB C input, so you don’t have to snake the cable across you or saving that extra cable length.
I agree with that big time.
Great, thorough review. Appreciated. I’m with you. The Logitech feature that allows SEPARATION from the keypad, WITH the cover on the actual iPad is worth the price of admission. Plus $$$. I paid less for the Logitech model.
I would add, that even with the iPad in the case, it‘s not entirely protected since the edges are still very much exposed. Also you can open the Combo touch from the cutout for the pencil, especially if you use the extra pencil sling. With the Magic Keyboard you also can‘t get a flat angle for more ergonomic writing, however, I‘ve heard that use of the keyboard on ypur lap is more ergonomic with the magic keyboard.
If you use it on your lap regularly, the combo touch is a very bad option unfortunately. With that said, if you use it as a tablet often, or like the protection the case offers, the Logitech is great with that
The sling is brilliant!
Agreed.
I might be crazy, but what I like most about the Magic Keyboard is that it takes up less space. A good example is if you fly a lot the Magic Keyboard sits perfectly on the tray. A lot of times I feel like the tray is too small for the Logi all spread out. Definitely an edge case for most. But I think Apple made it this way so that it literally could sit anywhere with no kickstand. I look weird but I just keep the folio cover in my back for if I want to read a paper or not user the Magic Keyboard.
If you detached the keyboard from the Logitech case, it too can take up less space. I can't imagine needing a keyboard whilst propped up on an airplane seat tray, but if that's a very common use case for you, then it would make sense why you'd prefer the Magic Keyboard.
Agree for your point
I think I might go with the Magic Keyboard for my iPad Pro 11 to distinguish it from my Microsoft Surface.
This I call a great review!
Thanks for watching.
Great review!!
Thanks.
A perfect review. For what I want in a tablet like experience, I will buy the Logitech. Thank you for the great review.
Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching.
I own the combo touch, and love it…BUT I have had one warranty replacement due to the case warping by the vent holes. Logitech told me that issue was “not normal”. My replacement was fine for about 3 months and now it’s warping in the same exact places.
The points you touched on about the two cases are similar to why I chose the Logitech over the Magic Keyboard. Also, Logitech keyboard cases tend to go on sale more at BBY than Apple so you have more opportunities to getting a better deal on the Logitech. I also feel like with the Logitech over the Magic Keyboard your getting both a case and keyboard, where with the Magic Keyboard your getting just a keyboard because once you detach the iPad from the Keyboard you are left with just the keyboard.
I also like about the Logitech is the function row. I like the fact that I can control the volume and media features from the keyboard rather than always having to access them from the control center. Also the keys on the Logitech feel roomier than what you get on the Magic Keyboard and also the trackpad is bigger on the Logitech and just as accurate.
The one thing I will give to the Magic Keyboard is the experience. I do get more of a satisfying experience than what I get from the Logitech, I can’t explain beyond that, but its what anyone feels from using an Apple product compared to a third party.
Awesome review! You should've posted this prior to my purchase...lol
Hi Scott, I’m totality In love with the logi, I have had it for long time now. Another thing I really love with it is, that you actually can put the keyboard on the back and still have it with you and you don’t typing on it when you turn it. But if I am doing that, the iPad can’t stand by it self. Hopefully logi will make that possible one day. The thing I don’t like and it is the only thing, it is pretty heavy, but I can live with it
Both have pros and cons for sure.
My Logitech Combo Touch (for 12.9" iPad Pro) only last 3 month (bought in Nov 2021). I applied the RMA, but there's no stock to replace the broken one since March. What a worldwide company.
Thanks! Awesome review!
Thanks for the kind words.
@@scottmckenna You're welcome
i bought an Ipad pro one year ago and ordered the Logitech combo for the price and reasons you’ve mentioned . I use it since then but there’s one thing annoying me a lot is that the space bar key miss almost one on two times…. I review my messages before launching and got to add the spaces on 3-4-5 words each time…So i just ordered the magic keyboard. Hope i’ll like it.
Excellent review and still applicable 2 years hence!
Thanks. Still great cases.
Nice thanks❤️
I got the Logitech case. It's so perfect. Really nice unit.
Best comparison
I’ve owned both, and the big thing to me is the ability to use the keyboard when you’re on a plane. Kickstands just don’t work on the tray table, you’ll just keep pushing the iPad off the back or flexing the keyboard. I plan to give that Stylus Sling thing a try though!
I agree. It's not good for lap use or small tables.
Great and unbiased review..
Thanks.
Great comparison! Could you please link the stylus sling for the Apple Pencil?
I like the logi tech one because you can pop the keyboard off and your ipad is in a case 👌👌
I have 2 cases for my iPad, 1 for the keyboard and 1 without. I agree that my biggest disappointment is the missing function keys on the magic keyboard, and the viewing angle thing is a big problem.
What is the case that you use when you take your iPad out of the keyboard?
Good job!
Great review Scott!
I just want to share my experience with the Logitech Combo Touch which I think you missed discussing in this video.
For those who are eyeing to buy the Logitech Combo Touch please bear in mind that the speaker side rubbers flare out after quite some time, I not only experienced this myself but saw another guy at the mall working on his iPad with the same issue.
I had to report it to Logitech and they acknowledge it as an aesthetic issue/defect and informed the store to give me either a replacement unit or store credit (which I traded in for the Magic Keyboard) I owned a black magic keyboard before but then I sold the iPad (pre-IOS 16 news).
+ opening the Logitech Combo Touch from its closed form is indeed a task every time you do it. :)
Yes I had this same issue, and in fact the thin rubber over one side actually broke.
Hey there! Thanks for the review, I’m planning on getting this hopefully soon. I apologize if you’ve answered this elsewhere already, but how does this stand do while typing with it on your lap? I find myself constantly needing to type without having a desk available, so my only choice is my lap. Most folding cases tend to collapse in these situations
I have both cases. Each is a good product and you can find the Logitech discounted to $150. Aside from price, however, go for Apple’s keyboard. When open it sits at a perfect angle for typing. Removal for note taking with the Apple Pencil is a dream. Unless you want to constantly pop the iPad inland out of the Logitech frame, you are carrying an extra heavy device for note taking. The Magic keyboard also sits the iPad firmly in your lap for typing. It is just a great design.
I've watched quite a few videos comparing these two keyboards and I think this one is the best. Thank you! I'm a bit concerned about the attachment of a USB-C hub to the Logitech. I don't know if the side protection on the Logitech might restrict attachment of the hub.
Glad you enjoyed the video.
It’s definitely harder to get a cable in depending on the thickness, but I haven’t had a major problem yet. With that said, since this video I’ve switched back to the Magic Keyboard. I use my ipad a ton on my lap, and the Logitech is terrible on the lap.
I've tried out the Logitech Combo Touch and I liked it a lot. Still, I ended up going for the Magic Keyboard - it's just too damn good.
As a person that uses an iPad for handwriting notes and drawing the ability to flip the keyboard around is huge for me. Hope this helps someone :))
