Editing Apple Magic Keyboard (section)

==Key size and layout==
Desktop keyboards have lower key travel than on the previous [[Apple Aluminium Keyboard|aluminium keyboard]]s.
Laptop/iPad keyboards have even lower key travel but not as low as on the 
"[[Apple butterfly mechanism|butterfly]]" keyboards that preceded them.

The keycaps have very little spacing in-between them, even less than on previous keyboards.

The keys on the bottom row are no longer slightly larger vertically than on other rows.

Vertical ISO [[Return key]]s are still narrow, but JIS [[Return keys]] are full-size.

Some keys are different on desktop and portable keyboards:
On the desktop keyboards the left and right [[cursor keys]] are not halved vertically to make an inverse-T shape.
Neither are the keys on the [[Function keys|function key row]] smaller than on other rows.

Laptop keyboards have a fingerprint reader. Some laptop models have a [[Touch bar]] instead of function keys but keep a physical [[Escape key]].
