Curious, do you have a cover for the back of your iPad Pro 10.5?

Do you remember the SmartCase, for the iPad Pro 2017? It was made by Apple, and I loved it. It had a back cover and a SmarCover. The best thing since sliced bread for the iPad :)

Anyway, Apple decided to not make a similar one for the iPad Pro 10.5.
Alas, I found a similar one on Amazon. However, it (the back) is rather slippery.

Do you use anything for your iPad, that is NOT slippery?

I've been using clear Con-Tact paper on my iPads for years. $4 @ Walmart... I'm still on the same roll I bought for my iPad 4 back in the day, and still have plenty left. It is strong enough to protect it from scratches and greatly improves the grip. Contact paper on the back, smartcover on the front, super thin and lightweight combo.

I use invisible Shields, Zagg, bestskinever etc, whichever one I decide on to cover the back of my 10.5".

To me it's a nice compromise, it's clear, thin, light, tough to stop scratches and adds virtually zero weight and thickness.

This and a smart cover/keyboard is great solution.

I did buy a (non Apple as price is ridiculous) slip case as well in case ever needed it £12 off Amazon. Fits in with a smart cover/keyboard and the back skin on.
