Apple Releases Wireless Magic Keyboard With Numeric Keypad

by

Apple today released a wireless Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad priced at $129 in the United States. The wired version has been discontinued.


The keyboard features an extended layout with a numeric keypad, document navigation controls for quick scrolling, and full-size arrow keys for gaming.

Like the traditional Magic Keyboard, the Numeric Keypad version has a Lightning port with a built-in, rechargeable battery that lasts a month or more between charges.

Apple says a Bluetooth-enabled Mac with macOS 10.12.4 or later, or iOS devices with iOS 10.3 or later, is required.

The keyboard is currently available for delivery as early as June 8 in the United States. Pricing and availability varies in other countries.

I don't want a battery powered keyboard. It's pointless and inconvenient

Now I actually might buy one of these. Numerical keys are essential.

Oh man. I better get another wired version while I can.

Seems pretty crazy that you'll have to shell out $130 to get a full keyboard, that you'll have to charge, going forward. They should have kept the old wired one around.

Expect the basic Apple wired mouse to be on the chopping block next.
