It feels far too small and flimsy to let us type quickly when were working, let alone being able to take a pounding when were in gaming mode.

It also has no less than 19 function keys that you can use to control music playback, along with features including Mission Control and Expos.

However, those of us who are on old Macs or want a new keyboard, the small Magic keyboard might be the answer.

The keyboard is sleek, gorgeous and features a solid body, providing a sturdy keyboard that will never move when in use.

The typing experience is near perfection, with both comfort and accuracy in mind.

Thanks to a built-in proximity sensor, the keys will only light up when your hands are near the keyboard.

Admittedly its only a small feature, but it really highlights the attention to detail required to develop this keyboard.

The dial is completely contextual, and the functions will change depending on the app youre using.

Tapping the dial provides access to a range of functions, from volume control to brush size to tab switching.

Its also the same size as Apples Magic Trackpad, so you can line both devices up on your desk and move easily from one to the other whenever you need to.

Theres also a proper Delete key which is missing from Apples smaller Magic Keyboard and a Search button as well.

It also has the added benefit of working with Windows and Android in case you ever need to break out of the Apple ecosystem.

The basic design of the keyboard is very similar to Apples own keyboards, with a slimline design and aluminium casing, and a handy pair of USB ports for plugging in a mouse and other devices.

And, of course, it can be used as an ordinary keyboard for typing in Microsoft Word and other programs, and theres a numeric keypad for data entry as well.
