If you own iPad Pro 12.9” 2020 and you place it flat on a table, does it wobble at all? If not, how does it not wobble considering the thick camera bump at the corner?

The wobble should go away if you have a foldio? Or does the bump go past the folio?

The point is I don’t want to use any case or folio when laying it flat on the table. Any case or folio I put it on would make the device thicker. I want it to be as thin as possible. This is because I use my iPad mostly for note taking. If the device is too thick, it would make me feel uncomfortable when the palm of my hand reaches the outer edge of the bezel. I am pretty sensitive to touch.

I remember when I removed the outer shell of my older iPad. The device was much more comfortable to use. From then on, I only use the folio when I am not using it or while on the road.

Without a case, it will wobble. No getting around it.

Mine has a tiny wobble, but I see this as a benefit when laying it on a desk, in that it doesn’t pick up scratches on the back.

It’s awesome with the first generation 12.9 which actually lies flat. And the back of the device actually holds up pretty well too.

Any wobble without a case is a design flaw to me and an attempt in getting that extra money from selling a case. It makes the device less enjoyable to use.
