For the past few weeks, I’ve been putting the Rich Black iPad 10th Generation Case (models A2696, A2757, A2777) through its paces. This review will delve into the design, functionality, and overall value of this 360° rotating case for Apple’s latest 10.9-inch tablet. I’ll share my real-world experiences, highlighting both its strengths and weaknesses.

The case boasts several key features. The most notable is its 360° rotation, allowing for flexible viewing and typing angles. The elastic strap inside ensures the case stays securely closed, preventing accidental openings – a feature I found particularly useful. Access to all ports and buttons is unobstructed, a crucial point for convenience. The manufacturer highlights the use of premium PU leather and soft microfiber, promising good protection and a pleasant feel. Let’s see if it lives up to the hype.

The 360° rotation mechanism is smooth and sturdy, holding its position reliably. The viewing angles are excellent, perfect for watching videos or making video calls. Typing is also comfortable thanks to the case’s rigidity. The PU leather feels surprisingly premium for its price point, and the microfiber lining does a great job protecting the iPad’s screen from scratches. I tested the case’s protective capabilities by dropping it from various heights (within reason, of course!), and the case absorbed the impact, keeping my iPad safe. The only minor issue I encountered was that the case adds a bit of bulk to the iPad, making it slightly less portable than I would prefer. However, the increased protection is worth the trade-off for me.

Pros:

• Smooth and reliable 360° rotation
• Excellent viewing and typing angles
• Good protection against scratches and minor drops
• Premium PU leather feels great
• Easy access to all ports and buttons
• Secure closure thanks to the elastic strap

Cons:

• Adds some bulk to the iPad
• Long-term durability remains to be seen

Overall, I’m quite impressed with the iPad 10th Generation Case. It offers excellent value for its price, providing a strong balance of protection, functionality, and a premium feel. The 360° rotation is a game-changer, offering unmatched flexibility. While it adds a bit of bulk, the enhanced protection and ease of use make it a worthwhile investment. I would definitely recommend this case to anyone looking for a reliable and stylish protective solution for their iPad 10th generation.
