Magic Keyboard for iPad—too heavy

On the iPad 10th generation with 26.1 IOS—using the newest Magic Keyboard—has anyone else found it too heavy? Do you even use the track pad placed on the bottom half or still, as I do, use your fingers on the screen? Perhaps there should be an option—with and without the trackpad. The whole thing is now too heavy for comfort on your lap or taking anywhere.

Presumably the Magic Keyboard Folio:

I haven’t used the folio keyboard, but have used the iPad Pro Magic Keyboard, and that’s pretty hefty, and not at all protective. If I were using the external keyboard routinely, I’d consider switching to a Mac laptop, as both weigh 1.24 kg.
