# Apple Introduces USB-C Variants for Magic Keyboard, Trackpad, and Mouse
In a highly awaited announcement, Apple has formally launched USB-C editions of its widely favored accessories: the Magic Keyboard, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Mouse. This enhancement supports the tech leader’s ongoing shift to USB-C across its product range, improving compatibility and ease of use for consumers. The new accessories are now up for grabs, although currently, the Apple Store showcases only the premium variant of the Magic Keyboard.
## USB-C Magic Keyboards Now Ready for Independent Purchase
The focus is on the fresh USB-C Magic Keyboard, especially the version that includes Touch ID and a Numeric Keypad. This has led to some misunderstanding among users regarding the availability of the more compact keyboard version, which does not include the number pad. Luckily, Apple has verified that both the compact and full-size models can be acquired, with Touch ID options available.
### Current Selection of USB-C Magic Keyboards
Apple’s current range for the USB-C Magic Keyboard includes:
1. **Magic Keyboard with Touch ID and Numeric Keypad** – This version features a full-sized keyboard layout along with the added security of Touch ID, ideal for those who value both functionality and protection.
2. **Magic Keyboard with Touch ID** – A smaller version that keeps the Touch ID functionality while excluding the numeric keypad, appealing to users who prefer a more streamlined design.
3. **Magic Keyboard without Touch ID** – Offered in both compact and full-sized options, this choice is great for those who do not need biometric security.
These keyboards not only work seamlessly with the new M4 iMac, which also includes these accessories but can also be bought separately. The USB-C Magic Keyboards are available for prompt purchase, with shipping options that can arrive within a few days.
## Additional Accessories: Magic Trackpad and Magic Mouse
Alongside the Magic Keyboard, Apple has also revamped the Magic Trackpad and Magic Mouse to incorporate USB-C connectivity. These accessories preserve the elegant design and functions that users expect from Apple while providing the additional advantage of USB-C compatibility.
– **Magic Trackpad**: Renowned for its wide surface area and gesture support, the new USB-C version enables smooth integration with Mac devices.
– **Magic Mouse**: This accessory maintains a distinctive design and multi-touch functionalities, now upgraded with USB-C for easier charging and connectivity.
## Conclusion
With the debut of the USB-C Magic Keyboard, Magic Trackpad, and Magic Mouse, Apple is advancing towards a more cohesive and user-friendly ecosystem. The range of available models ensures that users can choose the accessory that aligns best with their preferences and requirements.
