Your iPad is a great tool for being productive while out and about. The on-screen keyboard just can’t compare to a physical keyboard, though—whether you’re writing emails or filling your to-do list, physical keys make it so much faster. Here’s our top picks for Bluetooth keyboards.
Today’s roundup is focused exclusively on individual Bluetooth keyboards (as opposed to combination keyboard-case models). Why? Keyboard cases are great, don’t get us wrong, but separate keyboards are really useful if you want to use one across multiple devices or position your keyboard comfortably away from the iPad—you can’t put the keyboard on your lap and the iPad propped up at eye level on a stack of books, for example, if the keyboard and the case are mated together.
You’ll never have to worry about upgrading to a different size of iPad either as, regardless of which iPad you’re using, the keyboard will work just fine all the same. Here our are top picks for every budget and requirement.
Apple Magic Keyboard ($99)
The Apple Magic Keyboard wasn’t designed specifically to be a portable iPad keyboard. It’s actually a designed as a Bluetooth keyboard for everything with a Bluetooth connection from your desktop PC to your Apple TV to, yes, your iPad. That means it’s not quite as portable as some other Bluetooth keyboards here, but it still has a great built-in rechargeable battery that promises about a month between charges.
The Magic Keyboard is, at heart, a well designed Apple keyboard and sports just the right level of spring in the keys and comfort people have come to expect from Apple keyboards.
A stable scissor mechanism underneath each key contributes to that familiar spring and the low profile of the keyboard is easy on your wrists.The joy here is that you can easily hook it up to any of your other devices, before immediately returning to your beloved iPad. On top of all that, this keyboard isn’t much smaller than a regular keyboard so you’ll be able to adapt quickly.
JETech Universal Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard ($13)
If you thought a month’s battery life was impressive, the JETech Universal Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard will truly wow you with its promise of three months under normal usage. You can thank its aggressive power-saving mode that ensures it barely sips at the AAA batteries that power it.
The keyboard is smaller than a regular keyboard but its low profile and generously spaced keys mean you won’t suffer too badly for it. It’s quiet to tap on too, so you won’t sound like you’re banging away…
