Logitech has a new Combo Touch keyboard for iPad Pro.
The keyboard is now available for pre-order, starting at $199.99.
Logitech s Combo Touch keyboard for the new 2021 iPad Pro is now available to pre-order.
Logitech announced the new combo keyboard in April following the launch of Apple s new iPad Pro, from Logitech:
Today Logitech announced that Logitech Combo Touch is now available for the new iPad Pro 11 (3rd generation) and coming soon for iPad Pro 12.9 (5th generation). Combo Touch is an incredibly versatile case with detachable keyboard and integrated trackpad that allows typing, viewing, sketching, and reading, all while keeping the iPad securely protected. Combo Touch features our largest, click- anywhere trackpad for a world-class, highly responsive and reliable trackpad experience. It connects to iPad via Smart Connector, eliminating the need for a separate battery, on/off switch or Bluetooth pairing
You’ll need a new Magic Keyboard with the 2021 12.9-inch iPad Pro (Logitech Combo Touch, anyone?)
As if the 12.9-inch iPad Pro isn’t expensive enough, the French site
iGeneration reports that the current Magic Keyboard isn’t compatible with the 2021 12.9-inch Apple tablets. This means you’ll have to spring an extra $349 to replace it. (Maybe it’s time to look into a Logitech Combo Touch instead.)
Here’s why the previous Magic Keyboard isn’t compatible, per
iGeneration:
While the 2021 12.9-inch iPad Pro is broadly similar to the 2018 and 2020 models, the new tablet stands out on one point: it’s thicker, at precisely 0.5mm. It might not sound like much, but it’s enough for Apple to adjust its Magic Keyboard, the iPad Pro’s dedicated trackpad keyboard. And according to the documentation provided to the Apple Stores that we have been able to consult, the old Magic Keyboard is not compatible with the large iPad Pros of 2021.

Logitech has announced a keyboard accessory for the newly launched iPad Pro. The Logitech Combo Touch backlit keyboard case with trackpad is now official for both the new 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro models. The case is equipped with four modes that include Type Mode, View Mode, Sketch Mode, and Read Mode. Essentially, it will give your iPad Pro a Surface Pro-like form factor.
Like the Surface keyboard, this case is detachable, and it comes with an adjustable kickstand for watching movies and shows. The company says that the backlit keys automatically adjust to a user’s environment with 16 levels of brightness. Plus, you get a series of iPadOS shortcut keys on the keyboard.
