I got one for the Magic Keyboard already, and I got the Camera Skin too. But, there is a dent on my iPad that will affect the back skin.
(See Photo)
It actually bends up at the bottom. So, I’m debating.

I think you will still be able to use the back skin- for one it provides better grip while holding the IPad.

ALRIGHT WHERE’S THE IPHONE 12 PRO SHIPPING THREAD


BECAUSE MY IPHONE 6s HAS FOUND A WORTHY REPLACEMENT

I think I will let this one go.. My IPhone X can last one more year.

This makes me want to get a back skin for my iPad.

I would love to say I got it for the aesthetics, but really, I'm a bit of an oaf. I needed that extra protection. I use it (including my previous IPP's) for note taking quite frequently, so I tend to have it out of the case. That being said, I really do like the camo. It somehow makes it feel more solid. lol.

EDIT: clarification

So a quick question to those with the Magic Keyboard.... How do you open the cover when the case is shut? Do you open it like a laptop, or?

@Namara
I know you'll think this is weird, but ... I don't open it the way I open my laptop which is with the keyboard side on my lap and then lift the top screen side to open. Instead with the top edge (with the power button) facing me and the iPad side on the left, I open it like a book and rotate it to the right orientation. If I could video it, I would but I don't have a way.

How do you open yours?

It shipped! Hazah! Coming by UPS, so the creepy dude in the unmarked van is delivering my iPad.

yay yay yay!! Congrats .... You have time to stock up on waiting snacks and pick out what you'll wear to greet your iPad. Maybe you could stand in your front yard holding an airport sign that says "iPad Pro".
I actually have to figure out where this thing is gonna charge. My side table already has a MacBook, MacBook Air, and an iPad Mini...

I have it in front of me like a laptop, then lift the edge facing me up, so that it’s vertical. I then pull the keyboard portion of the keyboard case down. Boom!

it’s not easy to describe lol

Well, sounds like you'll be updating the family photo too. Are you considering a hub?

Actually that's a good description and I can visualize it.

Tomorrow you can spend the day cursing the Fedex/ UPS/ USPS guy... :D

Or bake them a cake. Here's an odd find: a UPS thank you page. Maybe there's something similar for Fedex.


At Christmas time I leave a small gift card for all the drivers. It’s not Christmas, but sure feels like it, so I’m slightly inclined to do that. They may be confused though lol

Made an account just to keep up/vent.

Ordered a iPad Pro 12.9" 128GB on 9/25, estimated arrival is 10/15-10/22. My local Best Buy had some in stock, but their trade-in value for my 11" is literally half of Apple's.

I'm not in a huge rush to get it since my Pro 11 is still fine (tbh I wouldn't really feel the need to upgrade, but I had some fellowship funds that I had to use and decided to put it towards upgrading...)

How would I chat with Apple Support about my iPad’s keyboard issue? I can’t find that topic or any topic about the Magic Keyboard on their support page.


EDIT: Nevermind. I’ll call them over the weekend and see if I can get it fixed by then.

After I tried to deal with all the dust and fingerprints on my iPad screen now I wish Apple put some kind of microfiber cloth to wipe/clean the screen. That would be against their "eco-friendly" marketing but...also would be amazing. ?

I am now. Any suggestions?
I don't use a hub so can't suggest anything, but I've seen some recommendations in the iPad Accessories forum.

What you can do is chat with them about your iPad since the MK is covered under your AC+.

Yes, I totally agree. I use a screen cleaning kit that includes two excellent microfiber cloths (that I use for my eyeglasses too) called iKlear.

I did, and guess what! They are offering a free Warranty replacement, and not taking any of my AppleCare+ claims. So today after work, I’m gonna chat with them again and they’ll mail me a replacement! So happy. But one thing that’s not great, is that I’m gonna have to buy another dbrand skin. :/
