Getting a iPad Pro soon anything I should get?

The Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro M4 DOES have backlit keys and a function row. I will agree it doesn’t offer much protection but the MGK is great.

No backlighting Fix Suggestions

Yeah, the new Magic Keyboard for iPad Air M3 does not have backlit keys, only the older,(the floating one) for the M2/M1 Pros and Air M1 had backlighting. Apple ditched it in favor of the new thinner form factor ig. For a workaround, grab a USB-C rechargeable clip-on keyboard light or a small LED de
