iPad Apple Folio or Rear case for iPad 8th Gen?

[DanielCoffey]

When looking in the UK Accessory store for the Apple cases for the new iPad 8th Gen I no longer see the Apple rear case that I last bought for my old iPad Pro 9.7" back in 2016. All I see is the Smart Cover for the screen only.

Did Apple stop doing the rear or plain folio cases for the iPad 7th Gen or 8th Gen at some point or are they simply out of stock at the moment?

I do see the Smart Folio case for iPad Air 2020 but there does not appear to be a corresponding case for the iPad 10.2" 8th Generation.

Strange. I still see it on the Apple US website.

I don't see it, even on the US site. There is one for the new Air of course but not the iPad 8th Generation.

What you have linked is the Smart Cover for the screen only, not the rear. I was hoping they still did either the full folio case or the rear shell case. Thanks for looking though.
