Yes, it’s been available since before the models launched — my case arrived on the Friday, the iPad launched the following Wednesday.
Off topic but how did you change the name of the different devices you have on the my EE app? On my app it only shows the phone numbers and I can't see any option where I can rename them...
Is it good? How's the keyboard? Also can you also write on the iPad without having to remove the case?
I love it. I had one on my previous iPad too and the new one is a definite upgrade. Typing is lovely, comparable to my iMac keyboard (not identical, but comparable). And yes, you can write on the iPad without removing the case. The keyboard side is also detachable — so you can remove it entirely (I do this for reading or drawing), or reverse it so the keyboard isn’t face-down on a table or surface when you fold it back
Hi Settings General About Name On the device. Then put want you like to call your device.

Ahh thanks for this
I have read online that the side of the case sags after a while and is a common issue because of the cheap rubber? Did you experience this?
The case is expensive so I want to do my research before I fork out.
I talking about on the actual EE app where you have named one of your devices 'Ella Watch'. I can't see where to do this on the EE app.
I read some of those posts on here too, and mine was never as bad as some of those claims. The rubber directly by the charging port sagged a little, but I mostly attributed that to the fact it was where I’d hold it. It was very minor though, visually invisible and certainly no risk of the iPad falling out. It just was a little saggier when you touched it — I didn’t hesitate to buy another one with the new iPad. I haven’t had the new one long enough to see if the same will happen to this one too, but it does feel like it’s improved.
Doesn't work for me. On all my devices on the EE app (have 3 lines), it jus shows the phone number for each device.
I recall either a post in the EE communitty, or in the EE FAQs that you can’t change the device names. A pisser because I have 5 devices.
I think I haven't explained myself properly. My apologies.
What I mean is how the poster has his his devices named 'Ella' and 'Tyrone Probert'. How do you do that because on my EE App I just have a list of mobile numbers and would prefer names like the poster has done...
You’ll need to go to the app>tap the person icon in the top right hand corner.
On the next page tap Settings and Permissions scroll down to App Settings and toggle Sync phone contacts to ‘on’.
If you have them stored in your Contacts when you next open the app they’ll have the names against them.
Do you use a screen protector? Furthermore, what made you get the Logitech over the much loved Apple Magic keyboard?
No. Not on my iPad, phone, or watch. If I was going to use one it would negate the benefit of the OLED screen, and these devices are plenty tough enough for regular use. The Logitech covers the screen when not in use.
I was tempted by the Apple one, especially based on the previous Logitech design with restricted viewing angles and the keyboard being face-down when it was tucked under to use as a kickstand.
But they changed the design to fix that issue, and it’s a step up in quality too. With Apple’s, if you want to not use the keyboard, the iPad is naked (whereas the Logitech lets you remove the keyboard and the iPad itself remains in a case). Apple’s generally felt more limited as a protective case, and is around £100 more expensive. Overall I didn’t see a benefit to it.
You explained yourself fine. I’ve tried a number of times to do that but it doesn’t seem possible. There was a time some years ago this was possible, but EE have been furiously updating their apps and website and at the moment you can‘t set aliases for your devices.
Where did you buy your Logitech from because it's only available for pre order on their website but you already have it? Did you buy it from Amazon?
