Why Apple Magic Keyboard does not have a good design

The usual laptop design is made in that way that most of the components that make the laptop work like the keyboard, battery, processor, RAM, storage etc., are in the bottom part of the laptop. That makes the top part of the laptop or the monitor part almost empty, filled only with the display parts that are pretty light and makes possible for the customer to one-hand open the laptop. To open the iPad Pro with the Magic Keyboard on is not possible.

When it comes to bad design idea is that in the iPad Pro unlike a usual laptop all the components are in the top part (in the iPad itself), and to make it to stay in place Apple had to make the keyboard much heavier than the iPad itself. The iPad weighs 640grams and the weight of the Magic Keyboard is 702grams, together they weight 1342grams. When the iPad has the keyboard on it is thicker and heavier than a MacBook Air.

The build quality is very good, the keyboard does not even flex a bit. It is expected when you pay 300$ for a keyboard.

The keyboard is a backlit keyboard which is nice to have but there are no function buttons and no ESC (escape) button, and that slows down your productivity.

When you open the iPad you see that the hinge lock in place and you can only change the angle that you look at the iPad.

Laptops are made to be carried and for people to be able to work on them in almost every position right!?. Well with the Magic Keyboard you can not do that because of the weight of the laptop. It does not stay in place, it tends to flip.

When you add that the iPadOS is still far behind MacOS, you will see that the iPad is still not a replacement for your laptop.
