I've ordered a MoKo back cover - it's frosted plastic. Looks pretty good and according to the Amazon reviews will do the job admirably. At £6 I won't be expecting brilliant quality, but providing it protects it from the odd scratch and coming into contact with the gunk frequently found on desks at university I'll be happy.
I have the ESR back cover (10.00 USD) from Amazon - works well with the ASK. I also just ordered the Moko frosted cover too to show off my gold iPP. It should arrive today. I just really don't want to spend 70 bucks on an Apple case in two bland choices - gray or white....

Cheers,
Bobbie

Could you take photos of it when you get it? I spent the money on the silicone case from Apple, but I don't know if I'll keep or return it. The case is very nice, but it feels so wrong to spend that much money on a back cover.

Yes I will take a pic of both the ESR cover (gray) and the Moko when it arrives this afternoon and post.

Here's the Moko cover with my ASK on my iPad - it's very similar to the ESR cover from Amazon. It let's the color shine through and will protect from scratches. You have access to all buttons and ports - definitely a good investment to protect from bumps and scratches.

That actually looks good. I'm going to give it a go and try ordering the frosted black one for my space gray model. How was the fitment? I'm mostly concerned with dirt getting trapped inside and scratching the back from constant friction.

It fits nicely - it's not hard to get out or in....I've only had it on for a few hours and my iPad hasn't left my desk yet. I can let you know but it works fine until I find one in a color I really like better....works with the ASK and that was my biggest concern.

I had the white silicon until I returned for a space gray model pro.

When I got the space gray on i only went apple smart keyboard for the screen protection. Left the back naked. Sure enough the first week I stupidly dragged my pro across a desk to move from one chair to another in a meeting and whatever was on the table scratched the back. :(

Ordered a silicon case in gray to match the keyboard now. No biggie as it doesn't functionally change anything but knowing its scratched tickles the OCD in me lol.

Would you mind sharing the link to the Silicon case to match the ASK? Thanks!
 
No back cover for me, just the smart keyboard on the front. I tend to lay it down face down to avoid scratches and have a sleeve for when I take it out of the house. If it does get scratched, I may get a back cover to hide it :)

http://www.amazon.com/ESR-Perfect-K...ords=ipad+pro+cover+smart+keyboard+compatible - this is the ESR case (this works nicely I have this one)

Here's the Moko case - also works with ASK -http://www.amazon.com/MoKo-iPad-Case-Semi-transparent-Polycarbonate/dp/B017130JIQ/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1457546872&sr=8-5&keywords=ipad+pro+cover+smart+keyboard+compatible

I have both of these cases and I like them both -the one thing the ESR case has over the Moko case is you can attach the pencil to the back of the ESR case if you are using the Moxieware magnetic sleeve. For the Moko case it doesn't stick to the back only to the ASK. If you aren't using the magnetic sleeve it really doesn't matter.

I had Ghost Armor matte applied to the screen and use the Apple silicone case and Smart Cover. Sena will be releasing the Future Folio case in couple months and I plan to get the case. I've been using the Future Folio case on my IPM4 and have a preference for it.
 
I just received my frost black Moko back cover. To my surprise, it's not the hard shell firm plastic I'm used to seeing on some cases. It's much thinner than I expected, so it has a little bit of bend to it. I noticed the volume rocker and power button are easier to press than with the Apple case. I'm still undecided on which case I'll keep. I'm aware the Apple silicone case costs significantly more (about 8-9 times more), but the soft interior and exterior of it make it a much nicer product. I've taken some pictures for everyone to see how it looks on the space gray model. Ignore the fingerprints :)

Has anyone found a back cover like the frost black Moko that has a "soft touch" matte type feel to it like the Apple silicone case? I wonder if the Incipio Feather is like that?

Thanks!
 
I use a SmartCoverKeyboard, Skinomi Tempered Glass and a clear matte Skinomi protector for the back.
