the case itself is absolutely perfect but I remember with my old case when I would open up the case the ipad itself would make a click sound like its opening now it doesnt do that even though it does open..the smell isnt too bad its basically like a new smell otherwise its OK just the click thing Im used to hearing that..I guess Im saying it wrong, the sound it makes when the cover hits the screen of the ipad the magnets need to notice it open and make the sound it does open but no sound
Are you talking about a click that comes from the iPad itself, like the speaker? Did you check and make sure that you have your sound enabled/not muted, because I can’t imagine the case making a noise to indicate that the iPad turned on when you opened the cover. I have the case for my iPad Pro 2024 and it doesn’t make a noise, which seems perfectly normal.

I got mine yesterday and already put my new ipad pro into it..it has a lil funky smell to it, maybe that will go away over time…

My Zugu case for the iPad Pro 13” has the same weird smell. It is less pungent after a couple weeks.
Mine does, too.

I couldn’t quite place it but after using it for a couple of hours my left (hold & scroll) hand smelled like garlic. Like after you mince fresh garlic, that residual smell. I don’t know what to say about this.

I noticed a smell on mine too, but it's been a week and it's went away. Probably just something during the manufacturing process, or the factory was taking a working lunch that day 😂
 
Is the Zugu case worth it? I need another case to use when I am not using the Magic Keyboard. I bought the Apple Folio but I am not a fan, I feel it does not offer that much protection on the go, especially for the price I paid for.

I had been using the Magic Keyboard since I got the iPad, and then recently ordered the Zugu case. The Zugu has been on my iPad ever since. I guess that's probably because I don't really NEED a keyboard case. I got the iPad to use it as a tablet, so the Zugu has been great. I love the full protection and versatility that I wish the MK provided.

Mine arrives tomorrow! It will be interesting to see how it holds up as I do find the need to use my Apple Magic Keyboard a few times a week. So I do have to extract the iPad M4 Pro 13” from this Zugu case.

I want one but they are not shipping to the UK!
I don't know when they will...

Good news is that it’s easy to install and remove!

Update! Just got it delivered and have used it a couple of hours. It does feel lighter than the one I had for my M1 12.9” iPad Pro. Maybe that is my imagination?

It is easy to insert and pull my M4 out of the Zugu case. I think it will stand the stress on the frame as long as I don’t go overboard inserting and extracting the iPad Pro use with my Apple Magic Keyboard. I wish Zulu would make an Apple Magic compatible case!🙂‍↔️

i got the slate color and love it!
 
I’m using a zugu case on my IPad mini 6, and I’m very pleased with the quality of it, it’s a bit pricey, but in the end, to me it was worth it.

I love my Zugu cases. Never going to back to a different brand.
Yes it be same for me too! I am impressed with it and I don’t need bring my portable stand anymore cos most case don’t have all levels I need and this one does! First one I ever seen and also I love magnet hold in place. I never able have case stand up my lap before cos always too fragile, this case it stay in place and so strong.
