I purchased a Speck BalanceFolio for my 11” iPad Pro which I like, however the shell back is a fabric type of backing. Overall the case doesn’t feel very protective even though it indicates 4 foot drop protection.

Are there any folio cases that you recommend that have a silicone back?

Is the back fabric by itself or is the fabric glued to the silicon back? Also, it looks like the fabric bit sticks out further than the silicon which means even better drop protection.

Yeah, that looks like a perfectly good protective case for your iPP.

I got this one for my iPP 11. I liked the professional look of it for meeting with clients. Sturdy with lots of protection. When it came, I liked it so much that I got a second one. I also have the Logitech Combo Touch for home and the coffee shop.
