Review: Excellent Case that Looks Bigger in the Pictures Than It Really Is. - If you're going to be carrying your iPad everywhere and don't have a dedicated padded and lined carrying case, this rugged case is the solution for you. It tough but light; it completely encases the iPad's surfaces without bulk or weight; the screen is protected by a flip-on cover that also serves as the base when used in tilt-support desktop mode. COMMON QUESTIONS: No, no tools, adhesives, etc. are needed to install your iPad in this case. Yes, this is a 1-piece case (although the screen cover/base is removable if you have an Apple Keyboard). Yes, the installation is easy and takes under 1 minute. Yes, you can use your Apple Keyboard as a substitute for the case's screen cover. Yes, there is a place to store your Apple Pencil. No, there is no plastic or glass screen protector. Yes, the case's Apple Pencil holder works with some 3rd party stylus. Yes, all of the appropriate ports and buttons are accessible and easy to use with the case in place. No, the case does not have any removable rubber parts that cover the iPad's ports when not in use.
Review: Best case/cover I have come across for an IPad - I have only had this for about a month, but so far I really like it. I was searching for a cover for my IPad 2017 and came across this UAG cover. It is a little expensive, but made much better than the Apple covers that I have used in the past. The cover provides excellent protection and also makes for a very useful stand to place on a flat surface. It can be a little awkward at first to hold in the hands as other reviewers have said, but overtime I have learned how to adapt. The material has a good feel to it and has good grip. Overall, it looks nice, offers great protection, and functions very well as a self supporting stand. I have no regrets with this purchase. Time will tell how well it holds up. It is definitely the best iPad cover I have used. If for any reason you think you will be wanting to take it out of the case on a regular basis, I would look for another cover. The IPad fits rather snugly in this case and would not come out easily.
