Are you looking for an alternative to the Magic Keyboard? From key spacing to persistent connectivity issues, there are several reasons for you to consider third-party wireless keyboard and mouse combos. The good news is that there are other great options available.
Today, I’ll show you 10 of the best replacements for the Magic Keyboard and Mouse. Every bundle outlined here includes both items, and none of them requires you to connect wired cables. Let’s get started.
1. Macally Keyboard and Mouse Combo
Another alternative that’s worth checking is this bundle from Macally. The design is very similar to the traditional iMac keyboards you might have used in the past, and the mouse looks a bit more utilitarian than the official Apple version. You can buy your keyboard and mouse in gray and silver or gray and black. You’ll also receive a charging cable for both.
A two-year warranty is also included for Macally products. The keyboard has backlighting too, meaning you’ll find it easier to work in low-light situations. If you later decide to buy a new computer instead of a keyboard, you can turn on the keyboard lights on your MacBook instead.
You can use the Macally Premium keyboard on up to three devices simultaneously. It also has 20 Apple shortcuts and plug-and-play capabilities if you need these.
