Apple’s USB-C Magic Keyboard with Touch ID is $20 off right now

Apple’s first-party USB-C Magic Keyboard with Touch ID is on sale for $179 right now via Amazon. That’s a discount of $20, as the typical price is $199. This deal applies to both the white and black versions of this accessory.

This keyboard has been specifically designed by the company to work with Apple Silicon computers. As previously mentioned, it includes a Touch ID sensor, for authentication, and an extended layout. It also has full-size arrow keys, which is great for gaming. Apple computers have been getting some big titles lately.

Like most modern Apple accessories, it’s wireless. The keyboard includes a replaceable battery that can go for around a month between charges. The overall design here is sleek and the keypad is responsive and comfortable.

This model didn’t make our list of the best keyboards, as there’s one major downside: It’s so very expensive. It’s tough to recommend any keyboard at $199, even if it is a first-party Apple product. It’s a bit easier to recommend at $179.
