There is something important about the new generation of Apple 12.9-inch iPad Pro that was not mentioned before. It has been revealed that Apple’s flagship tablet 2021 is not compatible with the old Magic Keyboard case that was released for the 2018 and 2020 models of this tablet.

According to  Varge , if you plan to go from the 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2018 or iPad Pro 2020 to the 2021 model (with Mini LED display, powerful M1 processor and improved camera), if you want to use the Magic Keyboard, you have to add $ 349. pay; Even if you have already bought a Magic Keyboard.

Apple’s 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2021 is slightly thicker than the 2020 model. The new model is 6.4 mm thick; While the thickness of the 2020 model reaches 5.9 mm (difference of 0.5 mm). The 12.9-inch iPad Pro 2021 is likely to increase in thickness due to the tablet’s use of a Mini LED display, which has a more sophisticated technology.

The 11-inch iPad Pro 2021 is still compatible with the previous generation Magic Keyboard due to its old screen and no change in thickness. The good news is that the 2021 Magic Keyboard is compatible with Apple’s 2018 and 2020 iPad Pro models.

In any case, the incompatibility of the new generation 12.9-inch iPad Pro with the old Magic Keyboard is a disappointing event for those who are users of the 2018 and 2020 models of Apple’s high-end tablet.
