Here’s our first look at TwelveSouth’s new MagicBridge desk accessory for your Apple Keyboard and Magic Trackpad 2

TwelveSouth is introducing the next generation of its MagicWand accessory known as the MagicBridge. The small tray houses both your Apple Magic Keyboard and Trackpad 2 to create a unified control surface for your Mac. Head below for all the details:

MagicBridge’s “feather-light” housing is made of a matte white polycarbonate. It carries a series of silicone pads on the inside and along the bottom to ensure your devices and desk are kept in impeccable condition. The sculpted tray doesn’t block Bluetooth signals and leaves you with simple access to all your charging ports and power. Made to work for both right- and left-handed users, the TrackPad 2 can go on either side of the keyboard. 

Ever notice the Wireless Keyboard & Trackpad 2 look like they were supposed to go together? By connecting these profile twins, you’ll create one larger keyboard that’s much easier to use than the smaller pieces by themselves. Also, when your trackpad is predictably beside your keys – you can find it with your fingers without looking down. Touch-typing is now Touch-tracking. Cleaner, faster, more stable control. Now that’s magic.

MagicBridge is available now on Amazon or TwelveSouth direct for $34.99 (with free shipping for Prime members). TwelveSouth looks to be pricing its new accessory pretty competitively considering no-name options go for around $30 with others reaching as high as $60 like this Henge dock option. 

More from TwelveSouth:

MagicBridge creates a one-piece keyboard/trackpad combo that is right at home controlling your Mac-based Home Theater in your lap (and unlike the previous version, the Force Touch Trackpad delivers all the feedback you need). In the conference room control your Keynote presentation like a boss. If you like to put your feet up on the desk and your keyboard on your lap at work, you’ll love this product.

MagicBridge is precision crafted in matte white polycarbonate – by far the best material for the job. It is feather-light and doesn’t block Bluetooth signals. When you look down, its white frame  seamlessly integrates with the matte white keyboard and trackpad. MagicBridge has silicone pads on the inside to protect your keyboard and trackpad, and silicone feet underneath to protect your desk. Once you have MagicBridge, you’ll wonder how you lived without it.
