Will the Ipad air 2 smart case fit the New Ipad just released on 24/3/17? If not what will fit it ?
iPad Wi-Fi, iOS 10.2.1
The dimensions of this new 2017 iPad 5th generation (NOT Air 3) are closer to that of the 1st iPad Air.
And knowing Apple the location of the cover magnets and the position of all the side panel switches maybe slightly different to warrant creating and selling new iPad 5th gen covers and cases.
I read some information that supports MichelPM's post:

Based on this, I'm going to wait awhile until things are more definite.
Hmm My case arrived today and it says it fits the Ipad Air 1 & 2. My Ipad should arrive by the end of the week . I will update if it fits it. Im worried about the camera hole at the back and if its in the same spot hmm. we shall see.
HI Everyone.
The Agent 18 flipshield for iPad Air 1 & 2 arrived along with the new IPad and I'm pleased to report it fits the New IPad no problem. The holes for camera etc all are ok with it also. So I'd say any iPad Air 1 cover should be fine with the new IPad 🙂
MichelPM yes lines up with all the switches. The Agent18 flipshield is not magnetic its all in one cover. its not expensive at all my daughter picked it because she liked the tiger print design on it said its cool. ( she is turning only 10). But the point is this says compatible for ipad air 1 and 2 and it fits the new Ipad 5

So your saying that the iPad air one and two would fit the new iPad for 2017 easily with any case? because I have the new iPad 2017 and I would like to know because of the case I would like for it but it only comes in the iPad air two. What would you say?
I know a company named zagg has advertised that they have one ready.
Other than that you can check amazon, or major manufacturers like Targus, Belkin, etc. I'm are the cases will be coming.
i bought a logitech ipad air 2 case for my new ipad air 3 but it ? doesnt fit
All of the side switches lineup fine?
Smart cover magnets are all in the same location on the new 2017 iPad and the iPad Air 1 smart cover?
No, the new iPad has a thicker case and cutouts on the back are different. The Smart Covers will work the same because the iPad body is the same size. Hope this helps. Have a great day! 🙂
Great!
That's Awesuuuume!
