iPad Pro 10.5" back protection case

Hi,

I'm going to buy iPad Pro 10.5". As I travel quite often and watch movies, I love Smart Cover feature which lets me stand iPad in a way so that I can watch movies on a plane. But it is crucial for me to protect whole iPad, back of it as well. No I have iPad Air 2 with Smart Case which protects whole iPad. Unfortunately I can see that in iPad Pro 10.5" there is only Smart Cover available, there is no Silicone Case for 9.7-inch iPad Pro - Midnight Blue - Apple which protects back of iPad in iPad Pro. Apple, will you release Smart Case for iPad Pro 10.5" anytime soon? For now I'll buy Smart Cover only and try to put my iPad front on each surface, but please release leather case which protects back of iPad and works with Smart Cover (the same set as exists currently for iPad Pro 9.7" but in leather).

Best regards,

Michal

Weird, mine doesn't, see attached. I went for the silver grey one, maybe that's it?

I have the same issue. Hopefully Apple will make a Silicone Case for 10.5-inch iPad Pro

Apple, PLEASE offer a Silicone Case for the 10.5" iPad Pro.

I want a 10.5 silicone case like the one I had for 9.7

Just stopped my purchase. I'll keep my iPad Pro 9.7. I am not spending $800 without a back cover!

Luvvitt case not available yet in the UK (I hadn't realised before this post was on the US forum!).

Glad to hear they already have one for the new iPad Pro - I love the one I got for my 9.7 iPad Pro.

I just ordered this one. It's not Apple, but it looks close.

That's why I buy third party products as I don't care for that smart cover.

Please read the reviews on this Luvvitt case on Amazon. People say it does not fit with the apple smart cover for 10.5 iPad.

Ignore the double post...

I just ordered the Jetech from amazon should arrive tomorrow. Ill report as to fit and finish later this week.

I can explain it. They want you to buy their new envelope with a slot for the pencil. That costs a lot more and pushes the sale of over priced pencils.

I bought the ipad pro mainly for uni stuff like reading notes but i don't know if i'm going to use it as a replacement to pen and paper. so yeah, big deal and the pencil isnt that cheap 😕.

I use a Smart Cover and a skin for the back, really nice thin protection. Not many companies doing them but I got mine next day from xtremeskins
