iPad Pro 12.9 (2018) New cases/sleeves Thread

[jazz1]

I'm liking this yet to be released Moshi. It gives a lot of alternative ways to angle your iPad including landscape and portrait. I'll be watching for this one. Has anyone used their origami style case for earlier iPads. Pros/Cons?

I do hope they offer colors beyond black. I suppose actual imprinted designs would be too much to ask for?

Bottom line for me is that the dimensions have to fit into my already purchased sleeves. I don't carry the iPad outside of the house without a sleeve or a briefcase. Got to keep the 12.9 protected, and keep up my coffee house street creds

Can you take pics of it with the Defender on the iPad.

My mistake, I have the symmetry, not the defender, case.

That's what I figured lol. If you got it that much earlier that would be been crazy.

I am currently trying out a case from Amazon from a company called Fintie.

I have the smart folio which I've kept, but the lack of protection is concerning. I did get the Otterbox Symmetry, but it does add considerable weight, and for some reason they went with gray as the first release. I'm testing to see if this case is a compromise of the two. The pictures show the original smart folio side by side with the Fintie. The plan being for now to use the smart folio when I have to pretend to look professional.

The Otterbox will be for traveling of any sort of distance.

[doublepost=1545024447][/doublepost]Very, very helpful observations. Does the flap on the Otterbox get in the way?

Just received my leather sleeve from Carl Friedrik and it’s lush!

No. It doesn't get in the way of anything, but you do notice it just flopping there.

Just wish there was a regular leather smart cover....

Just wish there was a regular leather smart cover....

So do I.

I went ahead with the Pad and Quill despite my concerns about the adhesive. Whatever stuff P&Q has partnered with 3M and designed is great. I removed the iPP after twenty-four hours to check for residue; there was absolutely none. That was my main concern.

The only downside (if you can call it that) is that it takes a while for the leather to shape, but I can already see how pliable it's getting.

I wonder if the IPP with otterbox on it will be able to fit.

FWIW I purchased a Fintie Folio also, the composition book one. It's way more stable than the crappy UAG case I bought from best buy.

It’s very tight right now and I can’t even fit the Apple keyboard folio into it.

So I don’t think the otterbox will fit.

Well that's unfortunate. I would like to find a nice sleeve that will fit it with an Otterbox on.

But I`m searching a Sleeve where I can put my Anne Pro 2 Keyboard and a Charger in. Do you know a sleeve for this?

Piel Frama has some new cases available

From the website:

“Your iPad is securely held inside using thousands of microscopic craters that work by creating many partial vacuums between the craters and your tablet. Thus your beautiful iPad will be fully visible without a frame covering it. This case is available in a wide array of colors and textures”

Interesting mount.

I was supposed to receive my sena cases future folio before Christmas, but was just emailed it will not ship on time. They recently posted new pictures of the case. I'm very disappointed. I've been holding back from using my iPad outside my home and at work because I fear it'll get dinged or my Apple Pencil will slip out with the current case I have.

I'll report back with pictures whenever it is I receive the case. My Vettra case is not scheduled to arrive until January...but we'll see. =\

 

[Confuse123]

Here's the future folio pics...

After a good experience with a Khomo case with pencil holder for my 10.5” iPad Pro I picked up one of these for my new 12.9”: https://khomoaccessories.com/produc...r-slim-support-pencil-charging-charcoal-black. It should be at my office on Jan 2.

I’m using a cheap Jetech that leaves a lot to be desired, but provides at least some protection until the Khomo arrives.

My StilGut Leather Case for the 12.9" (2018) iPad Pro just arrived and so far it's pretty much perfect!

Basically, it's an even nicer version of the now-discontinued Apple Black Leather Folio for iPad. After trying—and not liking—the official Apple Smart Folio and the new UAG cases, it looks like I'm third time lucky.

Ordered it from Amazon and it arrived in just a few days: https://amzn.to/2SwlJQf

Wow! Finally a leather folio for the new iPad! Can you confirm it is really leather, not "pleather"? I've seen Amazon listing quote leather, but sometimes it is just plastic facsimile.

Yep! It’s a nice, soft leather, too. Feels much nicer in the hand.

Anyone tried cases from this merchant b4? Wonder how their handstrap armor-x cases for iPad Pro 12.9 fare in real-life use?

I do a lot of presentation so handstrap attachment will definitely come in handy.

Looks like this year they have introduced a rugged case too

Marvel iPad Cover from Taobao, ships internationally. Also got the iPhone case to go with.

Finally got my UAG folio. Not sure how I feel about it yet. The black fabric on the inside of the flap attracts dust like a magnet, and it's very visible on the black colour. It really looks trashy after 5 minutes of use.

How much weight does it add? Does it feel much more cumbersome?
