This review delves into the Rock Case iPad Pro 11-inch case, designed for compatibility across various generations of the iPad Pro 11-inch (2018-2022). Having used this case daily for several weeks, I’m ready to share my in-depth experience, highlighting both its strengths and weaknesses.

The Rock Case boasts a number of features designed to protect and enhance the iPad Pro experience. The slim and lightweight design is immediately noticeable, adding minimal bulk to the already sleek tablet. The inclusion of a built-in Apple Pencil (2nd Gen) holder is a significant plus, keeping your stylus readily accessible and securely in place. The case also supports wireless charging of the Apple Pencil while it’s in the holder, a clever design touch. The auto sleep/wake function is reliable, extending battery life. Finally, the trifold stand offers two convenient viewing angles, perfect for media consumption or typing.

In terms of performance, the Rock Case delivers on its promises. The TPU material feels durable, offering excellent protection against scratches and minor bumps. The auto sleep/wake functionality is consistently reliable, automatically turning the iPad on and off as needed. The stand holds the iPad firmly in place at both viewing angles, showing no signs of wobbling or instability. The pencil holder securely holds the pencil, and the wireless charging works flawlessly. However, I did find that the case’s grip wasn’t very textured or grippy which is important when using it on a slope.

Pros:

• Slim and lightweight design
• Built-in Apple Pencil (2nd Gen) holder with wireless charging support
• Reliable auto sleep/wake functionality
• Stable and convenient trifold stand with two viewing angles
• Good protection against scratches and minor impacts

Cons:

• The case could be slightly more grippy to improve handling, especially on slopes
• Some users might prefer a more substantial level of drop protection.

Overall, the Rock Case is a solid choice for those seeking a slim, protective case for their iPad Pro 11-inch with convenient Apple Pencil integration. Its light weight and reliable features make it ideal for everyday use. While it could be slightly more grippy and while a higher level of drop protection would be welcome by some consumers, the overall value proposition makes it a good choice. I would confidently recommend it to anyone looking for a practical and functional case that doesn’t add unnecessary bulk.
