Hello,
I've had an iPad 5th and now an iPad 9th, both with an official Smart Cover. I really like that the cover covers the screen and keeps the aluminum back free. I'm thinking about buying an iPad 11th to replace my current one, and I see that Apple no longer offers these types of cases. The current ones cover either the front or the back, but I don't like them. Do you know of a case similar to the Smart Covers, even if they're not official? Thanks

Unfortunately, no one is doing something similar for newer models. Magnets are placed in a different manner and is not possible, if I read and understood well, to reply this kind of smart cover for the new generations of ipad 😩

Oh, bad news. I loved this type of case that left the metal back of the iPad exposed (I really miss the aluminum back of my iPhone SE, I didn't like it when they replaced it with glass, I never use wireless charging). In that case I'll have to buy a Smart Folio case. It also attaches magnetically, so I thought that, although it's not official from Apple maybe some other brand had created a case like this for the new iPads. Thanks for your reply.
