DuraSafe Cases for iPad PRO 11 1st Gen - Marble Green Protective Stand

Our review of the DuraSafe Cases for iPad PRO 11 1st Gen is written for owners of the 2018 11 in iPad PRO who want a slim, protective cover that also supports the Apple Pencil without removing the case. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a soft PU leather exterior with a silicone shock back and a built-in dual-angle stand, which protects the device while enabling comfortable typing and media viewing. Installation is simple and the case preserves access to cameras, speakers, ports and buttons while supporting the Pencil's magnetic pairing and wireless charging.

Key Features

• Exact fit: Designed specifically for the iPad PRO 11 in 1st Gen models so ports, cameras and buttons remain fully accessible without removing the case.
• Pencil support: Open-side design preserves magnetic attachment and wireless charging for the Apple Pencil while the cover still snaps closed securely.
• Protective materials: Soft-touch PU leather exterior and microfiber interior protect the screen while a soft silicone back absorbs shocks and protects corners.
• Dual-angle stand: Built-in adjustable stand provides two stable viewing and typing angles for video, web browsing and extended typing sessions.
• Auto sleep/wake: Integrated magnet enables the smart sleep/wake function to help save battery by waking or sleeping the iPad when the cover is opened or closed.
• Lightweight profile: Ultra slim design adds protection without significant bulk, keeping the iPad easy to carry and use in hand.

Who It's For

This case is best for iPad PRO 11 in 1st Gen owners who value a balance of protection, style and functionality: students, professionals who use the iPad for note taking with the Pencil, and anyone who needs a low-profile cover that still supports angled typing. The Marble Green finish is for buyers who want a subtle, distinct look that matches product images and color expectations.

Those who need heavy-duty, military-grade protection or an integrated keyboard should look elsewhere, since this case focuses on everyday shock protection, a slim silhouette and a built-in stand rather than rugged extremes or a keyboard accessory.
