Are there any cheap 3rd party ones? I don't really want back protection unless it allows detachment of the front cover.

I've just put my iPad Air 2 one on for now, it covers it 95% and shall wait for a cheaper one!
There’s an iPad Accessories forum which contains multiple threads discussing this.
Order one from Amazon. They are identical to the apple covers but only cost like $9 bucks! I love apple, but i never buy any of their cases
Link pls.
I wonder if you get the one for 10.5 ipad (non-apple brand) or just a smart cover for old ipad models.
I also recommend going to Amazon. I purchased a clear cover they were selling for $9.95 and it's great. I also have the smart keyboard from Apple and the cover does not interfere with the keyboard.
I tried looking for a "front" smart cover for Ipad pro 10.5 (non apple brand) and i cant find any. I saw cases that includes back and front cover attached to each other together.
Is there a non apple brand smart cover for 10.5 ipad pro?
Bumping this because I have exactly the same question. I'm looking specifically for a 3rd party Smart Cover alternative for the 10.5. Front only, nothing for the back of the device. Does such a thing exist? I've been poking around on Amazon but can't find anything. Maybe I'm just missing it?
I am in search of Smart Cover alternative too to pair with the khomo back cover (I prefer 2 saparated pieces rather than a unique one).
OK, but - is there actually a "cheap one"? I still haven't seen any alternative to the Apple cover. If there is indeed a cheap one, I'd like to give it a shot, even if it's crappier than the "good one".
I was able to find this one

Then I had the idea to look their reviews... not good:
https://www.amazon.com/sp?_encoding...derID=&seller=A1KYQEP5BGM7O2&tab=&vasStoreID=
A PURE WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY!... The Magnet is not strong at all, my Ipad pro falls all the time because of the magnet that disconnects from the side, I requested to send it back... JUST BUY THE APPLE ONE!
*********
I reveived either a defective magnetic wireless charger or it is advertised it as having functions that it doesn't. When I reached out to LightNetSee for a solution to my problem, they ignored me and instead offered a minuscule discount on return business and ignored further messages. Rude.
*********
I wouldn't trust any alternative that is available out there. I bought the Smart Keyboard, yet I am still wondering if I need a Smart Cover too, since I won't be typing most of the time.
Note: I also own the KHOMO rear case.
