Just got a Christmas gift, a new iPad Pro, from my Dad.

Now I’m seeking the case for it but these days there are so many brands and I have totally no idea how to choose.
I prefer a slim case and work with the Magic Keyboard, also my budget is around $50.
Is there's any recommendations?

What do you mean "work with the Magic Keyboard"?
Oh, I just mean a case that doesn’t get in the way of the Magic Keyboard, like it still attaches properly and works fine with it.
Plan to use it for my study.
 
Mageasy coverbuddy is a great choice. After searching around, I think it’s the only MK compatible case with Apple Pencil storage. The leather texture is amazing, too. I’m really satisfied after using it for a bit.

I am using a Zugu case on my mini 7, which I absolutely love. It holds my Apple Pencil Pro and the case feels durable and sturdy. I use a Brydge keyboard case for my 6th gen 12.9 iPad Pro, since I use it primarily in laptop mode 99.99% of the time.

Shame Zugu don't make a case with no pencil holder.
My Zugu case for the mini 7 holds the pencil attached to the side. I take it outside the house everyday, and so far the pencil has remained attached and charged to the side until I’m ready to use it, or I can attach it to the back.

I have a 11" M4 case has pencil holder on the top, I don't need it.

Just got the Coverbuddy from Amazon for a week, and it fits my new iPad pro perfectly. Definitely worth a try!.
I was a bit worried at first because of the reviews mentioning fitting issues, but it looks like the new version has fixed that.

I saw some reviews talking about the closing issue and was a little afraid of that. I didn’t know megeasy upgrade the case. They do hear the feedback from users! I would love to try this one.
 
Apple Folio is great keeps it light and feels good to hold.
Just overpriced like everything Apple.
True. Price is another point for me. Seems like I have to choose between Zugu case or Mageasy coverbuddy
