iPad Air Ipad Air 13” 2024 – Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil compatibility

[Simpleuser128]

Hello all,

I have previous models of the magic keyboard and apple pencil, which came with my iPad Pro 12.9 5th gen (2021).

It is my understanding that the model of the keyboard is - ‘Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro 12.9-inch (2021)”. I have no idea what the model of the pencil is and how to check it, so all I can say is that it was purchased in January 2022.

My question is - will they work with the new Ipad Air 13” 2024?

Thank you in advance.

Your keyboard will work, but the Apple Pencil won’t.

You will need an Apple Pencil Pro, or Apple Pencil (USB-C)

Thanks a lot!

btw, the model of the apple pencil is : Apple Pencil Gen 2, A2051, but I assume you knew it

It doesn’t look as if the previous Magic Keyboards will work. There is currently a post here from someone who got his M4 iPP early and the previous keyboard does not work-the magnet placements have been changed. Someone also reviewed the new M4 folio case from Apple and his previous iPad Pro just slides right out as the magnets do not line up or attach. I was hoping my current Magic Keyboard would work but seeing these posts I just went ahead and ordered the new one.

The question was about the iPad Air M2, not the iPad Pro M4.

My bad!
