Twelve South today launched the BookBook Cover for iPad Pro, a new leather accessory for the iPad Pro and Magic Keyboard. With the new case, an iPad Pro and Magic Keyboard are protected by two hardback case covers, a rigid spine, reinforced corners, and dual zippers.

As with previous BookBook products from Twelve South, the accessory is designed to look like a vintage hardcover novel, and it's available for 11-inch ($69.99) and 12.9-inch ($89.99) iPad Pro models. The 11-inch accessory also supports the third generation iPad Air, seventh generation iPad, and 10.5-inch iPad Pro, along with Apple's Smart Keyboard and Smart Keyboard Folio.

Additionally, Twelve South has the new BookBook Case for 11-inch ($79.99) and 12.9-inch ($99.99) iPad Pro. This accessory is designed solely for protection and use of the iPad, and isn't meant for compatible keyboard devices that physically connect to the iPad. It includes a built-in display stand for typing and the same leather construction as other BookBook products.

The specs page on the Twelve South site does not indicate weight so they appear to want to keep this info secret as did Apple with the Magic Keyboard.
 
I used Twelve South covers for years. They're very distinctive and get attention, but they are just a bit too cumbersome and bulky in the end. Switched to Zugu, but I don't use a keyboard anyway. Zugus are very thin, low profile, and light weight. I do miss carrying around the "old book" look.

This is a little odd with this config, though. A case for your case. Strange.
 
Lol, make the brick texture happen and should sell like hot cakes.
 
Next they will sell a rolling case so you can move your Twelve South protected tech tools from place to place. Designed to look like the old leather trunks from days of yore.

Pre-Pandemic I'd be all this as I would be out and about. I usually carry my iPad in a shoulder bag, so weight would be as much as an issue that others have pointed out. Also, if they offered custom book titles that would be this Brit. Lit. lover's dream ;)
 
Never understood all of the coverings. One of the things I love about the iPad is the ability to use a product that is thin and lightweight. I have 3 different sizes of iPads and I don't use a case on any of them...just an Apple Smart Cover that I take off nearly every time they are in use. I use my iPads hard and in some rough environments too. And they have never received any damage worth noting. No case equals better thermal management, lighter weight, less bulk...everything the iPad was designed for!
