Key Features

• Exact model fit: Designed specifically for iPad PRO 12.9 inch 3rd Gen models, the case ensures proper alignment of cameras, speakers and buttons without removal.
• Pencil support: The open-side design permits magnetic attachment and wireless charging of the Apple Pencil while the case remains on the tablet.
• Smart sleep/wake: Built-in magnets activate the iPad's auto sleep/wake function to save battery when closing the cover and wake the device when opened.
• Translucent back: A clear back panel shows the iPad's finish while delivering protection from scratches, dirt and minor impact.

• Slim materials: Premium PU leather exterior with a microfiber interior offers a soft touch and protection while keeping the profile lightweight.

Who It's For

This case is ideal for owners of the 2018 iPad PRO 12.9 who value a low-profile cover that still provides full functionality and Pencil convenience; the translucent back appeals to users who want to keep the tablet's look visible.
