I was inspired to go look for this after purchasing the otherwise pretty decent Apple Magic Keyboard. Brand new USB-C revision, launched in November 2024. The edges of the aluminium body are very sharp.

I guess they haven't gotten to de-Ive-ifying this product line yet.

Thanks for this. There are already dings in the edges of my not-yet-five-months-old MacBook Pro. I've been treating it like a baby: the most severe damage it could have sustained was from dropping it at an elevation of 2.5 feet onto a hardwood floor. Or maybe I looked at it wrong.
