Review: Perfect for my intended use - I bought this to be used with my Apple Magic Keyboard for the 11” iPad Pro. I wanted something that would hold the Apple Pencil safely and add some protection to the corners of the iPad and the back when out of the keyboard; for this purpose it works perfectly. The case is ultra light-weight and thin. There are magnets in it and it holds excellently to the keyboard case. It closes well without adding bulk. I feel much more comfortable and confident with this added to the magic keyboard. Would recommend. Review: Overpriced but no other option - REVIEW UPDATE: Broken after just 3 weeks No longer connects to Magic Keyboard. Very disappointed None of the other cases in the market can magnetise onto the Magic Keyboard while having a place to keep the Apple Pencil. It works but is very thin and does not feel protective in any way - it’s literally just to hold the Apple Pencil and have the back of the iPad covered when not connected to the keyboard. Embarrassed to have paid €80 but I will be using it a lot ## Features - [Compatibility] ONLY compatible with 20224 iPad Air 13" (M2). - [Keep Case On While with Keyboard] SwitchEasy CoverBuddy is the one and only patented case that allows iPad to connect to your Magic Keyboard.
