Pros & Cons
Pros
Brydge's 12. Keyboard is heavier than apple's 12'9" magic keyboard. I'm old enough to remember lugging around six pound laptops. It's thicker & has move of a laptop feel to it than the apple keyboard that holds your ipad at a * 24/7.
The keyboard and touchpad are top quality. Key travel is very good - giving tactile feedback. The trackpad is a very generous size and tracks smoothly.
The aluminum of the bottom section is well machined and the top shell is a nice soft plastic that still feels high-end. It looks great, has a polished feel and works fine for what i need it for - particularly writing.

It is expensive but it is very sturdy.
Shipping
Bridge customer service was prompt and courteous
They immediately sent me one from one of their newer factory runs.
Competitiveness
It has more travel than my m1 macbook pro, and this is one of the models with the newer magic keyboard that is supposed to have... Read More
Yes, that means it’s better than apple’s own 12’9’ magic keyboard.
After trying several other competitors i came back to brydge.
Brydge is on of these premium brands that have sort of built up a brand around another brand's products.
