KHOMO - iPad Pro 10.5 Inch & iPad Air 3 2019 Red Color Case - Companion Cover - Perfect match for Apple Smart keyboard and Cover

I really hate how Apple made the camera stick out of the back of the iPad. I can't lay it flat on the desk anymore. It's a major annoyance for me. Thankfully, this case resolves this dilemma of mine, without making it feel like I'm lugging around a Surface 3 (same size as iPad Pro 10.5, but much, much heavier). It also lets me plug in my keyboard without problems, so that's a big plus.The only real issue is that the left side of the iPad is left vulnerable when I don't have the keyboard/smart cover attached. So if I drop/bump it in that state, it could scratch that side up, or even worse. But that's just an inevitability with the design choices apple made, and not much can be done about that. And certainly not this case's fault. Besides, it does have about half an inch of coverage on both the top and bottom of the left side, so it should still remain protected, unless I drop it on to a table edge or something at just the right angle. But that'll pretty much ruin any device if that's the working assumption, so again, that's not the case's fault.The back/side texture allows me to keep holding my iPad without slipping away, so I'm very content with it so far. The front lips protrude higher than my glass screen protector, so I can even put it facing down on the table without much worry, also.Overall, a very cost-effective way of protecting my iPad, that doesn't get in the way as much as I had initially feared.

I bought an iPad Pro 10.5" and thought it would be easy to find a good keyboard case as I had for my earlier iPad. I bought and tried multiple cases including the Logitech and Zagg cases, but those were too bulky, too heavy, unwieldy in my hands, and did not work well on my lap. I had tried the Apple smart keyboard, but I was not crazy about the keyboard and it provided no protection for the back of the iPad -- it seemed exposed without a back case and too fragile to put in my bag.Ultimately I concluded that I would have to go with the Apple smart keyboard case to keep the weight down, and it had the benefit of working on my lap, but I had to figure out what to do to protect the iPad better when I throw it in a bag, and started looking at back cases that would work with the smart keyboard.This case matches the Apple smart keyboard perfectly in color, fit and form. It looks as if it is original equipment. It feels great in my hands, and makes a perfect set with the smart keyboard. I really feel that the iPad is better protected now without much extra weight, and I am much more comfortable throwing it in a bag, knowing it is protected. I am very pleased with the final combination.

I had to purchase a new iPad because my old one cracked. The conundrum with iPhones and iPads is their sensuous thin, glossy profile is better suited to a museum than a briefcase. Slick as a wet bar of soap and easily fractured. So, you end up swaddling your $1,000 phone/tablet in something protective.The durability of the glass is astonishing, to be fair. But you can't use it without some protection. So you're faced with a trade-off between durability and aesthetics.For me, Khomo came up with as good a compromise between bulk and protection as I could want. It slips snuggly over the iPad, protecting the corners and providing a comfortable back that isn't slick. I find the Stone color a perfect match for the rose gold. And it's nice that the gold glitters through in a few crannies. It reminds me what I bought and offers access to the buttons, speakers and plug.It does not protect the glass from dropped objects. If that is your concern, look elsewhere.Nor is it watertight. That requires an even heavier case.But for an elegant solutions that preserves a vestige of the lovely profile of the original this Khomo case is worth considering. I would buy it again.

Recently, I decided to upgrade my old iPad Air to to the pretty amazing 10.5 iPad Pro. Before I pulled the trigger on it, I was aware of the fact that Apple was no longer manufacturing cases for the back of the iPad. Being me, I decided to be a bit of a rebel by not having the back of the device covered as there is just something about having the Apple logo be visible, plus I very much appreciate and enjoy the quality on both sides. Well, one day a couple of weeks ago, I came across a video review online that highlighted this product. The affordable price and the overall review caused me to pull the trigger on it. The case arrived earlier today and after just a few mins, I couldn’t possibly be happier with it. Here are the key reasons why I like it a lot:1 - It fits like a glove2 - The color matches almost perfectly the color of the Apple Smart Keyboard, which I have on my device, and which I like a lot.3 - The back of my iPad will now be protectedAlthough it adds a bit of weight, it is not meaningful enough for me to have an issue with it. If you are looking to protect the back of your expensive 10.5 iPad while simultaneaously using your Smart Keyboard, look no further.
