Let me preface this by saying i love Pitaka Products, and have always been a huge fan of their offering.


Here is my recap of the case for the iPad pro.
Here is a link to my video review, apoligies for amateur state of the review, this was a quick posting



The packaging is always top notch with Pitaka


What you get:


iPad pro 12.9 inch Mag EZ Case
Screen Protector (very high quality). Screen protector application parts


The case is excellent and the fit and finish is fantastic. All buttons work and are very clicky. The clickiness is solid as if no case at all.


Pro’s:

The case looks great
Super easy to put on
Super easy to take off
Magnets attach perfectly to Magic Keyboard
Closes and open perfectly with magic keyboard


Con’s:


I dislike how it attaches to the front of the screen, as there are notches that are now visible. I understand why it was done, i just dont think it looks clean

I do not like the missing pieces in the back of the that must be in place in order to work with the Magic Keyboard.

I dislike the fact that it is very sharp and makes the already sharp edges of the iPad even more visible and to me this doesn't look the same. Pitaka manages to do this transition from back to sides on the MagEZ cases for the iPhone perfectly, but with this case it looks cheap and not what I expected


In Closing:

I love the magic keyboard, but i do not think the case provides much value while being attached to the magic keyboard, and having the missing piece not protecting one side of the iPad is bothersome. Overall, a great case, hopefully Pitaka adjusts the manufacturing so it is more 1 piece like their iPhone cases, rather then the molded design of this case (plastic sides)

Love Pitaka products too. But I am not sure about the iPad Pro case. It looks nice overall. But I don't like the bottom part being exposed too. They did it so it fits with the Magic Keyboard? Hope they would come up with another case that fully cover the iPad.
 
Too expensive for me, I’m still using CoverBuddy, although the Pitaka looks way cooler.
 
The buttons are actually nice

Seems like the Pitaka folks focused on the clickiness and responsiveness of the buttons
I bet, pitaka does a great job. I just never keep any case for any apple product that covers the buttons. It’s just preference.
