AI-generated summary
The Apple Magic Keyboard is one of those “nice to use, hard to justify” purchases for a UK business. It’s a sweet spot if your team is already fully in the Apple ecosystem (MacBooks/iMacs/iPads), because it pairs smoothly over Bluetooth and feels consistent day-to-day. For day-to-day office work—emails, docs, light spreadsheet work—the typing experience is genuinely excellent, and the low-friction setup means fewer IT tickets and less faffing around with drivers or weird compatibility.
That said, for a reseller customer paying £84.28 ex-VAT, I’d only recommend it if you’re specifically standardising on Apple hardware or you’re sensitive to build/feel and want quiet, reliable peripherals for knowledge workers. If your environment is mixed (Windows-heavy, occasional shared devices, lots of generic desk setups), it’s not the best value compared with solid mainstream wireless keyboards—especially if you don’t care about the Apple “it just works” experience. Also, don’t underestimate how quickly keyboards get abused in offices; if this is for high-traffic hot-desking or rough handling, you may end up regretting the price.
**Buy it if:** your staff are Mac-first, want a premium but simple wireless keyboard, and you value consistent usability more than absolute budget. **Skip it if:** you’re buying for mixed Windows/Apple fleets or want the most cost-effective, easy-to-replace option.
