Hey everyone! I meant to include this in some text in the video, but I’ll put it here instead. The conclusion I make about the cases is the video is correct. The Magic Keyboard for the 11” iPad Pro is 580g and the Combo Touch for the 11” is 474g. So the Combo touch is about 100g lighter! And it’s exactly 100g lighter when compared to the previous version the Combo Touch for the 11”. Sorry if it felt like a little silly in the video without any exact details, hope this helps!
Thanks for the video. It reinforces my decision to go with the Magic Keyboard. I had the Logitech on my old iPad and the track pad activating due to the bendy keyboard was a real issue. I tried the new Magic keyboard at the Apple Store and really liked it. The extra charging port was an added plus. I did go with the black model, but I’ve found that although it does seems to get dirty, it also cleans up pretty easily, so I’m good with that. Again, thanks for the comparison.
That’s awesome! I’m really glad that this video helped you to know you made the right choice! and yes I do have the black model with the larger iPad I have and the cleaning of it is manageable, I think it cleans better then the material that Logitech uses even.
Good review, however all depends not the user use 25:37 cases. The Logitech is much more versatile for me as I typically use it is a tablet without the keyboard attached for video consumption, reading or reading emails that just need to be deleted if nothing material. Assume the Magic Keyboard may be materially better if you your iPad as a laptop replacement and hard core typing. If I had the Magic Keyboard then I would need 2 cases.
Yeah that makes a lot of sense! I agree if you mostly are using it in tablet mode and don’t want a second case, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for sharing. It definitely depends on use case
I have to confess at first I was almost going to dislike because lack of a scale didn't look very pro, but after watching the whole video this does deserve a like, amazing quality! Will look at more videos from you 🙂
I appreciate you sticking around and I’m glad you enjoyed the rest of the content. I actually agree with you and that’s why soon after that video went up, I got a scale so future videos won’t have that problem! Thanks for sharing!
@@Graf-XTechReviews I have already watched and liked the 2018 vs M4 and M1 vs M4 comparisons (I have both the 2018 and the M1 in both sizes, but no M4 yet). And there are a lot more very interesting videos, I'll do some catching up these days. I might comment every now and then. Really glad I discovered this channel.
I bought both keyboards and your review was absolutely spot on! I ended up keeping the Magic Keyboard even though initially I thought I was gonna love the Logitech one
I think you forgot to mention the fact that the Magic Keyboard is ‘top heavy’ and has a tendency to tip over, due to all the weight being in the iPad whereas the combo has the kick stand that eliminates the problem.
Depends on where you have it. If it’s on your lap then I would say that the combo touch is just as if not more inconvenient to use and unstable. But on a desk you’re right, it is not as top heavy. That’s actually a good point, it’s something that totally should’ve been mentioned. Thanks for your feedback! That helps me to improve going forward!
Great review, just subscribed! dont see much comparisons especially for the 11 inch versions so this was a welcome video. Have one inquiry, usually its a direct buy for me for the magic keyboard, had the previous gen, but the logitech one had me curious mainly bec i want to use my ipad pro 11 more of a tablet so the back case for logitech where you can adjust infinite angles with the keyboard not attached seems great, and the keyboard just becomes optional. So is the logitech sturdy enough with its stand to use it on a daily basis similar to the built in kickstand of the surface line? Is the case not too bulky? Thanks in advance 😊
I would say the case is study enough, but obviously only time will tell. The part that doesn’t seem as durable is the material around the stand’s hinge, it just already seems a little worn even after such short amount of time, but again its hard to know how it’ll hold up in the long run. As for as too bulky, I’d say it was just slim enough to be tolerable for me. I’m also very hard to please when it comes to bulky cases 😂 but it’s also pretty light so that definitely helps. Hopefully that was useful and I didn’t make it even more confusing!
Combo Touch sucks for long term usage, the rubber edges of the case will stretch out and separate form back only several months in use. It happened to mine (iPad 10.2 version) and I switched to Apple’s Smart Keyboard cover and it’s so far so good.
Thanks for sharing! Yeah I’ve definitely seen those rubber edges get stretched out before, but I’ve had one for almost 3 years before and even with the rubber somewhat stretching, the iPad stayed in well and everything worked. So it does slightly depend, but you’re right that Apple’s keyboards will hold up better
@@Graf-XTechReviewsYeah the iPad would still stay in the case firmly, but those deformed edges really makes it unpleasant to hold when using it in tablet mode. Plus the older models got those super thick cases which was already unpleasant to hold.
@Graf-XTechReviews nah it was a great video and extremely useful. I was just teasing. Because of your video, I'm not going with the Logitech combo touch now. Keep up with the great content kid 👍
Not yet at least. I mean I’m decently careful with it, but I do the same things with the black version and the black one is always looking significantly dirtier than the white
Great video! I have one question though as I notice you have the nano texture. Does the logitech combo touch’s keys touch the iPad’s screen when it is closed, or is there a small gap? On Apple’s website, they mention that the combo isn’t meant for the nano texture so I’m wondering if there is a gap or not
From what I can tell, the keys don’t make direct contact with the iPad itself, but it is a little hard to tell. I did use it for over a week on my Nano-Texture iPad and it had no negative effects! Great question! Hope that helps!
To my usage the combo touch is better. The Magic Keyboard doesn’t gives you the possibility to not use it. With the combo touch you can reverse the keyboard and just use the iPad. Really useful in may every day job.
Would you be up for reviewing the mission leather co sleeve? Worried about Magic Keyboard getting scuffed in the bag and they have felt lining but it’s another investment but looks awesome 👏
Yeah I’ll definitely look into some sleeves for the iPad and Magic Keyboard, great suggestion!! I’ll start researching that and put it on the list of videos! Thanks for your suggestion!
Oh you switched, awesome! Yeah, that’s Apple for you. Floating screen, the more premium feel, the attention to details and technological sophistication.. You can’t put the experience and feeling on paper, or even describe it. Magic keyboard just belongs to iPad Pro 😁 People complain about the price, but when you sell it or trade it to next model, Bogey.. I mean Logi keyboard just won’t keep it’s value as the real deal 😉
Well thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it! I think a quick measurement might’ve still been good but I’m glad you enjoyed it without that as well! Thanks for sharing!
I can tell you from experience the Magic Keyboard still does not protect your iPad worth a shit for that “premium” price. Why Apple figures you should buy the protection plan instead of adding a small amount of protection around the iPad like most other cases that aren’t Apple.
Yeah it’s definitely not super protective and it definitely could be better for that. Personally, I still like the Magic Keyboard and I don’t really like a lot of bulk around my iPad, but that’s totally a personal preference! I know that for a lot of people it makes sense to put a protective case around your expensive device. So yeah that is definitely a fair criticism
I actually have a caliper, but it was out of battery and I didn’t have a replacement in time. I have somewhat limited times that I can film. I’m getting a scale so I can have that going forward. I do apologize if that particular section was not very helpful for you. Although, I believe you could clearly see which one was thinner without a caliper. Thank you for your suggestions, I totally get why that may be frustrating.
Here’s an idea, instead of sounding snarky, why not just politely suggest the use of a caliper or scale? I suggest the use of honey, not vinegar. Personally, I like the way he speaks to the camera as though you are his buddy and he’s showing you something cool at his desk. Great Job Graf-X Tech!

Why won't they just make a side protector case for the iPad Magic Keyboard?! That's the real issue is that there are no protection for the sides.
There are companies that do actually make cases like that. Where they basically just protect the sides. I’d recommend you look into that
Thanks for the video. It reinforces my decision to go with the Magic Keyboard. I had the Logitech on my old iPad and the track pad activating due to the bendy keyboard was a real issue.

I kept the Combo touch because it's better for handwriting notes. You don't need to detach it to write notes comfortably
Yeah that’s definitely true! For me the major dealbreaker is I got too dependent on the charging port 😂
Good review, however all depends not the user use 25:37 cases.

Yeah exactly, I really wanted the Logitech to work! Glad you enjoyed the review!

Yes that is true, it definitely was pretty heavy and not the most comfortable. Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Wow, that weight and thickness test was really scientific.
Yeah sorry about that! I’m working on having a better measuring system in the future, I’m sorry if that wasn’t too helpful. Thanks for the feedback
@Graf-XTechReviews nah it was a great video and extremely useful. I was just teasing. Because of your video, I'm not going with the Logitech combo touch now. Keep up with the great content kid 👍
Thanks! I’m glad you got some good information out of the video!
😂😂
Hahahaha
Good job but let me summarize it with a short statement, do you want a surface or laptop keyboard experience.
Yeah that’s true! As long as you have experience with what a surface is to gage it on. Thanks for sharing!
Does the white apple keyboard case get dirty easily where it wont’t wipe off?
Not yet at least. I mean I’m decently careful with it, but I do the same things with the black version and the black one is always looking significantly dirtier than the white

Yeah there’s definitely a lot of truth to that! The Apple Magic Keyboard is definitely more premium and has better resale value!
Everything here is spot on and I’m glad you didn’t have a scale. I want real world and practical examples. Scale, I don’t need no stinking scale. 😂
Well thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it! I think a quick measurement might’ve still been good but I’m glad you enjoyed it without that as well! Thanks for sharing!

the magic keyboard is great worth the xtra cash imho
Yes I would agree!
Is getting a scale and calipers that hard ? Or even just skimming the product description ? Incredibly scientific testing for a review.
I actually have a caliper, but it was out of battery and I didn’t have a replacement in time. I have somewhat limited times that I can film. I’m getting a scale so I can have that going forward.
