Smart Keyboard

Hi, hoping someone can help as I can’t find the information for this, I have an iPad 8th generation and would like a Smart Keyboard for this, it seems the only one available is for the 7th generation? They are the same size so will this work on the 8th generation?

Many thanks!

Same product. If you look, you’ll see that the keyboard has the same model number - MX3L2B/A.


If you purchase directly from Apple, then you’ll be certain of compatibility - and benefit from Apple’s 14-day unconditional returns period. Same price, same product - but for your peace of mind perhaps less risk.


Apple’s webpage lists compatibility as:


iPad Models


The John Lewis website doesn’t appear to have been updated to include the newest iPad8.
