I ordered this (https://www.amazon.com/iPad-Pro-10-...qid=1498770231&sr=8-7&keywords=MoKo+10.5&th=1) based on the Amazon reviews- will let you know once it arrives.
I sort of wish I had known about the improved Poetic back cover because it has the pencil holder attached. Still debating that one....

I have that exact case. Got it a few days ago. I LOVE IT! I've never been a fan of covers that don't show the beauty of the iPad. This one protects the iPad's back, is clear so it shows the back's color and Apple Logo, and is super thin. Also works very well with my Apple Leather Smart Cover!

Thanks for the info. Are the cutouts all perfect? I'm a bit OCD about stuff like that.
I have the exact same case, arrived today. The only issue is a slight misalignment of the speaker holes. No biggie tho
Could you post a picture showing the misalignment of the speaker holes? Is that issue present both on the top and bottom speaker holes? Thanks.
It works perfectly with the smart keyboard, and they also have full enclosures.

You can rub it down with used coffee grinds and it will darken it.
I really like the minimalist look of this case, can you please post some pics of how it looks from the front as well please and how is the fit on the corners is it nice and tight.View attachment 707257 View attachment 707261 I just got my "Tedted" brown leather backcover for the smart keyboard yesterday. I'm a little torn - on the one hand it aligns perfectly, and I can tell that it's made of very good quality leather. But that color... I thought it was brown like the apple pencil leather case, or the old ipad air 2 smart cover... bit it's more like..orange actually. Quite annoying, especially at this price point. But if you're not into this specific color, I can definitely recommend it.

used coffee grinds? you mean after I made coffee with it let it dry and then? Would it also work with nun-used coffee grinds?

This. Or rub some leather 'milk' into it, that always burnishes it well. I do this with my Saddleback gear (top stuff...wish they made iPad covers!) and it always burnishes it well. Shoe polish may also help.
Thank you very much for the pics, this case looks awesome. Have just placed an order for the same.In regards to the orange colour i think the leather will get darker with use and age.
I'm partial to the Hard Crystal clear snap on back covers. Had them for my 3rd gen iPad and my 9.7" iPad Pro. The 9.7 was STM from the Apple on-line store.(A bit on the expensive side) The others were just made in China. Cheap but effective. Also have them on my Mac Book and Mac Book Pro (Front and Back) I'm going to try the MOKO until something better shows up. I'd be thrilled with the cheap Made in China back cover at this point. For $6 to $10 I really don't care if I have to replace them a couple of times a year although I've had the same back cover on my 3rd gen iPad for a couple of years now. (Not bad for $6 or $7 and free shipping) It would be nice if someone would get them into production! I don't really care if its Apple (STM) or China. I'm really not comfortable with no back cover protection. Especially with the price of the new 10.5"

That's a great looking back cover. Any idea how much it weighs?
Just received the improved Poetic replacement back cover. Perfect fit with the ASK and SC. Grippy, secure and love the attached pen holder. This will tide me over until someone comes out with a good leather back cover with a pen holder.
Hi, I got my Tetded case today and the case is really nice, but I have noticed a small issue the power button is very slightly covered by the corner that latches on to the iPad and I have also found that the same top right hand side corner is loose and doesn't grip the iPad tightly.
So wanted to know if you have similar issues or is your case as it should be .
Hmm i checked and actually no, I don't have these problems- maybe write their support!
And actually I solved the color issue with some leather coloring spray very effectively!
I have both the (1) transparent Gray Poetic Lumos Flexible Soft Transparent Ultra-Thin Impact Resistant Back Case with an integrated Pencil holder, and the (2) Khomo Charcoal Gray Case with Pencil holder, although I tend to use the Poetic Back Cover more often.
