Our Verdict

Apple Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad

Razer Joro

The Razer Joro and the Apple Magic Keyboard with Touch ID are quite similar in terms of typing feel. Both use responsive scissor switches with a very short travel distance. While the Apple keyboard is better built with a full metal chassis, the Razer can double as a competent gaming keyboard thanks to much better latency performance. It can also pair to multiple devices and has backlighting, which the Magic keyboard lacks. That said, while the Razer offers all the necessary shortcuts and legends for use on macOS, it doesn't have a Touch ID for easy and secure login.
