Apple Magic Keyboard with Touch ID
Apple
My everyday board, and Touch ID is the whole reason: laptop closed behind dual monitors, a fingertip unlocks the Mac, my password vaults, and website passkeys. I liked it enough to buy a second for the bag, so I get the same closed-lid logins in any coworking space.

What works
- Touch ID unlocks the Mac, password vaults, and website passkeys with a fingertip
- Run your laptop closed behind monitors, no lid required to authenticate
- Slim, quiet keys and about a month of battery per charge
The trade-offs
- Touch ID needs an Apple-silicon Mac
- Low-profile keys are not for everyone
