I’d rank them Khomo>Jetech>ESR (Hard Shell).
The Khomo and JETech are almost identical and both excellent cases for the money. Only major difference is the Khomo covers the chamfered edges.
Got a tip for us?

I know a lot of people have been looking for TPU cases which are compatible with the Smart Cover/Keyboard and I came across these on AliExpress -

I bought one for my iPad Pro 9.7 and have been very happy with the quality and fit of it.
It's worth bearing in mind that the photographs aren’t always accurate and standard delivery takes along time.
Also, for those looking for an ‘anti earthquake’ case with ‘typing input office’, you might want to check this out -

New Khomo rear shell for 10.5 came today. Very nice, slim, feels great, color matches ASK. Holes pretty much line up. I think we have a winner. Away into the drawer goes the Poetic.
Just got an email from Vaja. The smart grip and detachable case are up for preorder (only black right now), also 25% off through July 4th (code July417). I like the Khomo but want leather so I think I’m going to go for the smart grip. So expensive and afraid it might be a tad bit bulky. Thanks Apple. Thanks for just not making a gd back cover.
What quality is the rear case made up of ? is it hard plastic or what ? and how is the inside of the cover ? The area which touches the body of the iPad ?
Doesn't the camera hole cut out a little tight ? Neck to Neck ?
Can you please post the link from where you got it ?
Thanks !

So is it hard plastic or soft it is not one of those TPU covers right ? How is the inside part of the cover ? do you think can it cause any scratches with the friction it may cause to the back of the iPad body ? And the cut outs are perfect right with the camera and speakers and everything ? What colour did you opt for ? Does the charcoal grey colour match with the charcoal grey of the Apple Smart Keyboard ? Can you also post some pictures of the front side of the cover after the cover is put on to the iPad ?

Why don't you click on the link and take a look yourself?
The link is little weird it says black colour there but shows one with golden colour so if he has got one it is better to know from someone who has already got it ! By the way thanks for reminding me that I could click on the link otherwise I would have not known. Thanks !
What's weird? I clicked on the link and it showed a black transparent one, a clear transparent one, a blue transparent one and a gold transparent one.
I had the black Aiyopeen one on my Space Grey iPad Pro 9.7. The colours are all transparent rather than solid and the black one is actually a very good match for Space Grey. Judge for yourself.
Actually, the loose one I got was from Best Buy. I also had one delivered from UAG direct
This one, the rubber is not actually loose. Fit is very good.
I think I'll keep the one from UAG direct.
It's a soft touch plastic. It feels really nice. It's certainly worth more than the 12 bucks I paid for it. The camera hole is just fine and protects the camera when laying it down on a table.
Overall, it's a really nice solution for what you pay. Works and looks great with the SC or ASK.
Here's the link.

Do you think the inside part of the Khomo case, the area which touches the iPad body can it cause any scratches because of being plastic ?
TPU like this generally looks and feels gross. Expect scratches, air bubbles, floppiness.
Does the case pull off the iPad? Since its TPU?
Do we have to say "Aiyopeen" if we get one...?
Sounds like an excited utterance from a guy who just took a shot to the yarbles.
I have used TPU back covers for my iPad-3 and iPad-4. I would not say I was completely unhappy with the quality, but remains to be seen when compared to Khomo how does it stand ?
