For weeks, I’ve been putting the shockproof cover for the iPad 10th generation (models A2696, A2757, and A2777) through its paces. This case, boasting a clear transparent back, four-corner airbag protection, and a built-in pencil holder, promises robust protection and convenient Apple Pencil storage. But does it deliver?
The case’s design is deceptively simple. The clear back showcases the sleek design of the iPad while the flexible TPU bumper provides a reassuring grip. The built-in pencil holder is a significant advantage, eliminating the need for a separate pencil case. The claim of a convertible viewing and keyboard stand is accurate; the case folds neatly to provide a stable platform for both.
The case’s protective qualities are impressive. I subjected it to several accidental drops (don’t worry, the iPad survived unscathed!), and the four-corner airbags absorbed the impact effectively. The hardshell back provides solid protection against scratches and minor bumps. The fit is snug, ensuring the iPad doesn’t slip out, and the cutouts for ports and buttons are precise. The viewing and typing angles are comfortable and secure.
However, the case does add some bulk to the iPad. This is a trade-off for the added protection, but it’s something to consider. The magnetic closure is strong, which helps maintain a closed form, but in the case of the stand functionality, can sometimes need a firmer push to open or close depending on the angle.
Pros:
- Excellent protection against drops and impacts
- Built-in Apple Pencil holder
- Clear back shows off the iPad’s design
- Convenient viewing and typing stand functionality
- Easy to apply and remove
Cons:
- Adds significant bulk to the iPad
- Could be difficult to remove without damaging the magnets over time
- Not compatible with any other iPad model
Overall, this shockproof cover for the iPad 10th generation is a solid choice. The combination of excellent protection, convenient pencil storage, and a functional stand makes it a worthwhile investment for those who want to safeguard their iPad while maintaining easy access to their Apple Pencil. The added bulk is a minor drawback in my opinion, outweighed by the protective benefits. I would recommend this case to anyone looking for a reliable and practical solution for protecting their new iPad.
