A USB-C to Lightning charging cable is included with both models. The standard Magic Keyboard is $149, while the one with the numeric keypad is $179. Starting today, customers can order directly from Apple with free shipping. So if you have the newest MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, Mac Mini, or iMac with the M1 chip, you're good to go. The reason is that the Touch ID sensor communicates with the dedicated Secure Enclave cryptographic coprocessor only available on Apple silicon. However, there is one caveat: The fingerprint scanner is only compatible with M1-equipped Macs.
I use my older model as a keyboard for my PlayStation 5. They will operate via Bluetooth with any model of Mac or any Bluetooth-equipped device for that matter. Aside from the fingerprint scanner, the two keyboards are identical to previous models. On Tuesday morning, Apple quietly added two new products to its Accessories pages-the Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad. Unfortunately, the new Magic Keyboards were only available with the purchase of an iMac until now. I am unable to use Touch ID since the lid is closed.

I typically work with my MacBook Pro attached to a 40-inch monitor. When the M1 iMacs debuted earlier this year, I was less excited about the computer and more excited that it came with a Magic Keyboard equipped with a fingerprint scanner.
I only need to charge the newer one once every couple of months or so. They have superb Bluetooth range that's strong enough to work from another room, and the battery life of the new models is phenomenal. In fact, I’m typing in this blog entry on my iPad courtesy of the slick Apple bluetooth / wireless keyboard and it is a rocking’ setup, especially when you can touch type as I can.
The oldest one I've had for nine years, and it still works great. Like the wired Apple Keyboard, the new model is thinner than its predecessors and has an aluminum enclosure.Another addition is the new functions added to the function keys, such as media controls and Dashboard control. Editor's take: Magic Keyboards perform incredibly well. On August 7, 2007, Apple released a redesigned model of the Apple Wireless Keyboard.
