What’s everyone use as the cover for the 2021 iPad 11 Pro? Just bought a 256 one from Amazon at the $799.99 price. Now I need the cover.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions and pictures would help!

I use ESR rebound magnet case (for reading) and Apple Magic Keyboard (for typing a lot, video call, etc). Both are magnet, hence easy to switch between them.
Please note, there 2 types of case: bend protection (usually hard material on the back but side part is unprotected) and scratch/dent protection (usually soft back cover and protect side/top/bottom iPad). The 2 cases I use above are bend protection and I added simple sleeve to protect from dent.

Do you have a link for the simple sleeve?

It’s only $3. I don’t have the link due to local store. The sleeve is made from neoprene and slightly bigger for the iPad + MK.

I have two cases that I use depending on my use case for the day.

Going to meet with clients, I use this case. It looks classy, protects very well, and inexpensive. Like it so much, I ordered another for backup.

And for home, library, and coffee shop I use the Logitech Combo Touch. Very nice type case that durable, protective, and very utility. I actually like it better than the Magic Keyboard case.

Things I like better on LCT over the MKB

1. Protection on the edges.
2. Being able to remove the backlit keyboard and still have it in a case with a fully adjustable kickstand.
3. The larger, multi touch click anywhere track pad. It's frigging amazing.
4. The material the MKB is made of smudges and marks up easily. The LCT material does not.
5. And probably my favorite, the really convenient full row of iPadOS shortcut keys.
