Hello,
i would like to use my ipad pro 11 (2018) for notetaking and i have heard that the ipad can have some bending issues. So my question is whether notetaking with the apple pencil is possible while laying my arm on the screen with complete pressure (as one would while writing on a paper) without risking to damage the ipad. Has any of you tested it and if so to what extend of arm pressure?

Thank you in advance.

I think you should be okay. There is however a position (think it’s typing) the folio case uses that makes me a bit wary when I’m drawing with some pressure. It’s probably safe enough to do but the iPad does feel quite vulnerable in the lowest stand position imo.

Edit. My concern posted above was referencing my 12.9 pro. I think the 11” has greater stability in general, I would assume due to a slightly decreased surface area = less flex
