Are you gonna wrap your magic keyboard?

Agree, one does not buy a gorgeous apple device, only to make it look like a cheap android device 🤦♂️😊
I reckon keep it for when you want something a bit lighter to carry around.
dBrand white marble - Before and after
I had the black MKB for the 11” iPad Pro before I sold them both recently and the black gets smudges and attract dirt and grime very easily. Some of the smudges don’t come off even after cleaning.
I think the white will hide the smudges more.
my faux leather came! feels great!
I messed up the top left corner of the back trying to work a pesky air bubble out but :/ oh well, better to get over my OCD quicker. And glad I got that egregious air bubble out, that was annoying me even more. The rest is just fingerprints which go away easily.
I hope it doesn't peel since I didnt perfectly align it on the bottom/top single piece, really small margin on all sides, but I'm hopeful!
and still gotta put a hairdryer to the apple logo and pat it down so it stays which I'll do tomorrow
Im also liking this yellow carbon fiber camera cut out. Looks cool in the dark too imo but looks better in both cases in person it’s much bolder

Hope you don’t mind an SKF user sliding in here with a new skin. When I had a 12.9 MK last year, I used Sopiguard’s black forged carbon and loved it. For this SKF I wanted more color and a bit more fun, so went with Decal Girl’s Blue Quantum Waves.
Yup, it’s the same outer fabric. I wish the SKF was covered with the same fabric as the keyboard though, which has a great texture and much easier to keep clean. I doubt a skin would be needed if that was true.
Some of these look like the the cheap Aliexpress skins I used to buy on my past Android devices. Sorry to ruin the fun guys, just my 2 cents, enjoy the skins.

Kinda agree with you, that is why i purchased 3M white mate skin, just to protect the white MK without noticing the extra skin.
But everyone has an opinion
I think simplicity is the way to go too
but the first page of neon dbrand looks pretty good even though bold look IMO
I'm not going to skin up my magic keyboard but I did put the Dbrands white faux leather skin on my new iPad. The installation came out great and now the folio is collecting dust. I either use the iPad on the keyboard or by itself now that it has some scratch protection.
To me any think shows it is a skin there, not my taste. I might put an exception to honeycomb on black MK.
