For the first time, iPad Pro users were able to benefit from a more powerful Magic Keyboard, while iPad Air users were left with the original 2020 versions. Apple released a “new” version for the 13-inch M2 iPad Air, but it was essentially just a repackaging and relabelling of the 12.9-inch version, with the same part number.

This iPad accessory lineup refresh brings along a mix of enhancements and trade-offs. The most notable shift is its positioning: it effectively bridges the gap between the premium iPad Pro keyboard and the more basic Folio, offering a floating design at a more accessible price point.
