Thanks man! Appreciate it. Just bought a couple of them with the fastest shipping. Should finally have a couple nice compatible cases in a week or so

The Khomo case looks nice, just wish it had some sort of rubberized plastic or soft lining on the inside of the case. So far debating between JETech, UAG and Khomo. Don't know what to go with.

I received the poetic case on Saturday:

Case is good but I really think clear types of TPU are icky to hold and show too many fingerprints. Poetic should have gone with frosted.

Pencil holder is convenient. Everything lines up. Also, I use a screen protector and hope they make a version with all sides protected.

I went with Khomo it looks like and will match the keyboard better color wise

I have both the Khomo and the Poetic on order. I suspect I'll better enjoy the Khomo with the better match of color with ASK and hopefully less fingerprint problems. I have a magnet sleeve for the Apple Pencil so that should be able to connect as I always does for carrying the pencil along with me.

I have the Jetech case currently and the CTSing should be coming today. Yesterday i preordered the iBlason backshell. I'm thinking the CTSing will be the keeper but that depends on the quality of the iBlason and I would love to have an Apple Smart Cover.

If all else fails, one of the 3 will hold me over while I wait for Zugu in late July.

What made you decide to try out the CTsing case? What do you think of the Jetech?

It seemed to have the best reviews on Amazon and I like that its a TPU material all the way around vs just a hard plastic shell like the Jetech. The Jetech is a good case but I'm not a fan of the back shell, it fits good but the bezel is pretty much fully exposed.

Why I went for the ESR... Hard back panel but rim is silicon and covers chamfered edge

I got the ESR, very impressed with it for under £10

If I recall correctly, the ESR has excess branding and cutouts. The KhoMo has no visible branding, on the other hand.

According to the photos on Amazon, ESR case has two small logos--one on the front and another on the back. I wouldn't call that excessive. The cutouts for ventilation are a odd quirk though.

That's already kind of offensive.

Why bother with logoware/adware when you can do better?

Bc it's their product and their prerogative. Why does any company (including Apple) put their logo on their products.

Exactly, we can do better.

Apple is non-offensive to the extreme when you compare to the alternatives... compare Windows laptop stickers to MacBooks. A world of difference. Read about how Apple would rather pay more for Intel CPUs than plaster Intel stickers on their products. Compare adware/malware Lenovo software with MacOS. Another world of difference.

Their prerogative. We don't have to support that.

So what will we buy, Mac or PC? ESR or KhoMo? What's our best choice? Our prerogative.

Even more of an odd quirk considering the ventilation cutouts aren't where the logic board is located on the 10.5. The cutouts are/were in the right place for all previous 9.7 iPads, but on the 10.5 the logic board is now in the middle.

Does the CTS protect the camera? Hard to tell in the pics if it if the camera still protrudes. I cancelled mine yesterday and I may as well try it anyway since its so cheap.

CTsing protects the camera.

I bought the ESR leather case. The ESR logo on the front doesn't bother me. The leather is really nice, it holds the
iPad securely, but the pen holder is a big fail. Now I need to find a case that props up easily, and holds the pen
without getting in the way.

Yep, mine's the 2nd one, in rose gold. I'm very pleased with it.

I bought this too. The pencil holder is stupidly placed. Not to mention that this thing is actually fairly heavy in comparison and the magnets are weak.

Opted for the ESR Smart Cover clone until my Sena folio arrives.

Guys is the ESR case better than the JEtech case ? JEtech is all Plastic but I wonder what ESR is made up of ?

The model I have is plastic. So far so good. But since I'm looking at this as a temp solution, I'm not too attached to it.
