It took a couple of years for the iPad mini to return, but it was worth it. The sixth generation of the smallest tablet from Cupertino has followed the path of the Air line and has been updated with a new almost borderless design, more powerful processor and improved front camera for some outrageous video calls.
The renewal of the iPad mini (2021) has also brought with it the compatibility of “Pro” accessories, such as the second generation Apple Pencil to draw, design and write by hand as if the tablet were a conventional notebook. Nevertheless, the company has not incorporated the Smart Connector magnetic connector to dock keyboards such as the Smart Keyboard or Magic Keyboard.
More and more users use tablets for productivity tasks and not just for entertainment consuming content from platforms such as Netflix. That Apple has not endowed the smallest of the family with this element is not a great impediment because there are keyboards with Bluetooth connectivity, and in this article we collect seven super compact proposals to vitaminize your new iPad mini “Pro”.
To get the most out of a Bluetooth keyboard with an iPad mini, you need to purchase a case with a stand or a stand that can adjust its height and viewing angle. A couple of weeks ago we released in Applesfera a compilation of eight media with which to read, study and watch movies more comfortably.
Bluetooth keyboards for iPad mini
Omoton Ultra Slim Bluetooth Keyboard
We started the selection with the Omoton Bluetooth keyboard (19.99 euros), an ultra-slim design model reminiscent of the one that Apple includes with its iMac. The layout of the keys is Spanish QWERTY, so it has Ñ, like all the keyboards that we are going to discuss. It has an approximate autonomy of 30 days with daily use (works with two AAA batteries).

Logitech K380 Bluetooth keyboard
A classic among classics. The Logitech K380 ($ 31.99) is one of the most popular compact Bluetooth keyboards on the market for its sleek design and features. Of rounded keys, can simultaneously connect to three devices and switch between them quickly with the push of a button. Its battery is long lasting, with several months of use using a pair of AAA alkaline batteries (pre-installed). It works on both iPhone and iPad as well as Mac computers, Windows 10 or Chrome OS devices.

Rii K09 RGB Backlit Bluetooth Keyboard
With a backlit keyboard you can work better in unfavorable lighting conditions without having to depend on other light sources. Rii’s K09 proposal (23.99 euros) can light up in the shape of a rainbow and has an approximate autonomy of up to 70 hours (with backlight off). Its battery is rechargeable by USB.

Sross-TEC RGB Backlit Bluetooth Keyboard with Trackpad
iPadOS has been compatible with mice and trackpads for some time, whether they are integrated into an accessory or work via Bluetooth. This increases the capabilities of the iPad and brings it closer to the experience you get with a conventional laptop. The Sross-TEC model (29.95 euros) can be backlit with seven different colors and incorporates a small trackpad to navigate the system. It is recharged by USB-C.

Logitech Keys-To-Go Bluetooth Keyboard
We continue with another Logitech proposal, this time one that bets on maximum thinness, lightness and portability, the Keys-To-Go (50.17 euros). It is thin and resistant to splashes and dirt with its FabricSkin cover so crumbs and liquids can be easily cleaned up. It has shortcuts to control iOS functions and its long-lasting rechargeable battery can last up to three months per charge.

Logitech MX Keys Mini Bluetooth Keyboard
We continue with another from Logitech, now the most recent to join the catalog. The Logitech MX Keys Mini (107.88 euros) was recently announced and is a smaller version of its MX Keys, so it does not have a numeric keypad. It has “intelligent” lighting that is activated when they detect the presence of the hands. It can be connected to three devices simultaneously and offers function keys to control volume, brightness and content playback.

Apple Bluetooth Magic Keyboard
We finish with the official proposal, Apple’s Magic Keyboard (109 euros). This is the keyboard that Apple includes with its iMac and that allows you to type with total precision and comfort. It is fully cordless and rechargeable, with a built-in battery that lasts for about a month (or more, depending on the use). It recharges through Lightning and comes with a braided USB-C to Lightning cable so it can be recharged in the port of the iPad or Mac.
