I have an iPad Pro with the folio keyboard and thinking of upgrading to the Magic Keyboard (depending on what happens in March with 2021 iPad Pro). 80% of the time i use my iPad to read/play games in bed and it’s easy to use the iPad in table mode sitting on a pillow in an upside down V with the iPad facing me. I know the Magic Keyboard does not rotate 360 degrees but if I remove the iPad, create an upside down V and then lean the iPad against it do the magnets on the non-keyboard side stick to the iPad at all if it’s on the back instead of the inside? I tried this will the folio keyboard and there is a little magnet pull on the bottom so that the iPad doesn’t automatically slide off the upside V.
 
It does, although it’s not a great experience.

The magnets are surprisingly solid in this unofficial setup, but the canera bump is not going to along with the hole (for that, you would need to mirror the iPad). So it will wobble a bit.
