iPad Pro What case are you getting for your iPad Pro?

I bookmarked that site. I want a hard case that will also prop up the iPad. That looks great.

I am also waiting for the UAG case for sure. Have used it on my old iPad Pro 9.7” for the past two years and absolutely love it. It provides great corner protection against drops, and makes usage super comfortable with with all the viewing angles. And I love how the front cover clips easily off when I need to use the device in book reading mode.

@Inked, is this the regular Smart Folio or the Apple Smart Keyboard Folio? If it's just the regular Folio, do you think it has enough space to fit the Smart Keyboard Folio?

And just to confirm, you got the 9-10" case for the 11" iPad Pro? Thanks in advance for the help!

Picked this up from amazon, fits with the folio attached.

I returned the Apple Foilo. It was too expensive not to have any Apple branding on it. Just purchased a cheap case on amazon. I actually rather use the iPad Pro with a case. I love the design.

Mine is the regular smart folio. I did get the 9-10” case which is a little snug so would be a tight fit with ethe keyboard case. At least buying from amazon, you could try it and return it easily enough if it didn’t fit.

I got tired of going caseless with my iPad Pro 12.9 3rd gen. With out a case the camera bump just irritates me. So while waiting for UAG or Otterbox to deliver a protective case that also supports charging the new Apple Pencil, I decided to go with the Ztotop case recemmended in this thread several times : https://www.amazon.com/Ztotop-12-9-...043&sr=8-5&keywords=ztotop+ipad+pro+12.9+case .

When I ordered it on Thursday November 15 delivery was estimated as Nov 27 but it came today. Essentially a knockoff of the Apple Smart Folio case but $28 versus the very overpriced $99 from Apple. Both Pencil charging and sleep/wake work fine so I’m happy until UAG and Otterbox recover from the ripple effects of Apple’s paranoia on releasing requirements to support Pencil charging to the case vendors in advance.

Has anyone gotten the navy blue? It looks like a pretty cobalt blue in the picture.

I have the Apple Keyboard case on mine. At first it wasn’t my favorite, but now it is. I like it.
 
Ztotop 12.9 :)

Almost the same as the Apple cover with support for charging the Apple pencil Gen.2, however 80 EUR cheaper.
 
While waiting for my Pen & Quill Oxford Leather case to arrive in “early” December I got the ESR Yippee case. It was $19.00 and does not support the Apple Pencil, but does a good job of protecting my 3rd gen 12.9” iPad Pro. For the price it exceeds my expectations for quality.

By the way I’ve had the Oxford Leather case on my 1st gen 12.9” iPad Pro, so it says volumes about this case that I’m getting one for my new iPad.

I picked up iPad Pro 11 yesterday. Before I decided on the case, I bumped it twice while in the store. I felt pretty dumb. I got smart folio. Rarely use keyboard and if I do need keyboard I use BT one.
 
Smart Folio for me. Glad Apple offered it after NOT offering with the 10.5.

The edges feel a bit sharp but the Smart Folio does it for me.

Keyboard folio does not work well in laps!

I have tried using my Husband's Apple Folio, but find that after a few minutes, those sharp edges become really uncomfortable to hold. I am still waiting to find the perfect case for my device.

I agree they are sharp but most the time my new iPad is sitting in my lap why doing the LazyBoy thing.

I went through 7-10 cases looking for the right one for my 10.5, not going though that again.
 
Never had a keyboard before so I've ordered the folio keyboard for my 2018 ipp 12.9" (non in stock at the Apple store when I bought the iPad)
 
I just ordered the Waterfield Sleevecase with waxed canvas and grizzly leather for my 11. I have the Apple folio case but want more protection for the edges when outside the house or traveling.
