Brydge launches color-matched aluminum keyboards for entry-level iPad at $159
Brydge has unveiled the Brydge 11.0, a new keyboard lineup designed to visually match the four colors of Apple's entry-level 11-inch iPad: silver, blue, pink, and yellow. The anodized aluminum keyboards feature a full-size backlit keyboard, a glass trackpad supporting iPadOS gestures, magnetic attachment, and up to 40 hours of battery life with backlighting. They're compatible with the iPad 10th generation and iPad A16, priced at $159, and launch on Brydge's website and Amazon around mid-month.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
Apple only sells its own Magic Keyboard Folio in white regardless of iPad color, leaving a gap for accessory makers to offer more cohesive, personalized setups. Brydge's move also undercuts Apple's $249 price point by nearly $90, giving budget-conscious iPad owners a cheaper alternative with matching aesthetics and comparable core features.
- Brydge 11.0 keyboards match all four entry-level iPad colors: silver, blue, pink, yellow.
- Priced at $159, significantly less than Apple's $249 Magic Keyboard Folio.
- Offers up to 40 hours of backlit use and compatibility with iPad 10th gen and iPad A16.
