About the track record of the Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro...

[ozdy]

I am currently considering about upgrading my 2018 10.5-inch iPad Pro. Despite being very happy with my overall experience, usefulness, and reliability of my iPad Pro, I had to change my previous iPad keyboard (MPTL2TQ/A) due to occasional connection problems, which gradually became permanent and rendered the keyboard itself unusable. Thus, I purchased a second keyboard 2 years ago, and it manifests similar symptoms. I had reached the end of the warranty period on both occasions in my country, so requesting a warranty replacement was not an option. While some probable quality control issues are bothering me, since it is a very low possibility to experience the same problem on two separate occasions unless otherwise, I wonder if the Forum members experience similar problems on newer Magic Keyboards. Btw, I checked and cleaned the connector surfaces and keyboard pins for dust, etc. accumulation.

The MKB on my wife's 2021 M1 Pro is going on 5 years old and still looks and works great (I used it before her). Never had an issue with it. Same with my M5 Pro MKB.
