I am planning on getting the Apple iPad Pro 11 inch in sliver with regular WiFi not anytime soon just for future. I was thinking of getting the magic keyboard so that I can use it as a laptop. I would need my device to be in an otter box so that it is more protected. I am not sure if it would work with the otter box case and the magic keyboard at the same time. Would you be able to clear this up for me better thank you?
Hi there @Hmblondie09
Sadly the answer is no,
If you do decide to get the OtterBox case you will have to remove it every time when you want to use the Magic Keyboard
Ohh I just looked it up on Google and it said this so I am just kinda confused.
The iPad Pro attaches to the Magic Keyboard using magnets, which can easily be weakened or made useless with the wrong protective case. You should be able to keep the case on the iPad Pro even when using the Magic Keyboard.
This is what I am looking on getting if the otter box won’t work but it’s magnets so I just confused why it wouldn’t. Here another case I am looking for? Can you explain more why it wouldn’t explain if it’s has magnets.
Can I have an otter box on my iPad Pro while using the magic keyboard?
