    Solid, well made folio. Fits my 11" iPad Air perfectly. Seems to provide solid protection has I throw in my backpack all the time. Great price, bought it on sale for more than 50% off.

    Basic case for iPad

    This is a good, basic case for iPads. It has an internal hard plastic case for complete iPad protection (including corner protection), and then the tough fabric outer folio. I don't have a magic pencil but looks like it would be contained within the case by the iPad magnet/docking area. Pros: - full protection including corners - flip-down camera cover (with integral magnets to hold the flap open while taking photos) - secure plastic clasp to keep the case closed when not using the iPad - adjustable viewing angles when set up as a stand - Cheapest full-protection case I've seen Cons: - No integral magnets to automatically inform the iPad that the case is closed. Of course, the iPad will time-out it's screen depending on settings, but you don't get the audible subtle click from the iPad when closing the case. Have to press the iPad power button to turn the screen off. - Works ok on your lap, but need both your legs flat. The case is really designed to be set on a table or other flat surface when opened and propped up - Not a great low-angle mode for sketching/drawing apps. - front cover of case is not detachable, must fold it around to back, or use as base (when propped up for viewing)

    This is a nice cover for my wife's new iPad Air. Fit is good, and we particularly enjoy the fact that we can prop the iPad up when we're FaceTiming with family. A good product at a good price point.

    Excellent protective case for what it is. Love the ability to keep the Pencil Pro attached to my iPads side where it is necessary for it to be. Hopefully I never drop it to test it's resistance to falls but for now it seems a solid piece of equipment Oh and it has a magnetic flap that hides and protects the camera when you don't use it. How cool is that? Lol

    Seems very well made and provides good protection. My iPad fits very snug yet was pretty easy to install. Nice selection of adjustable angles when propped up. I like the flap that protects the camera lens.

    I love my Speck - Balance Folio Case for my Apple iPad Air 11”. I have had it for over a month now and I find it convenient, practical and pretty! (I got the plumberry purple). It has a clasp that you can also use it to keep the front cover from dangling while you’re using it, which also has ridges on the inside to keep the iPad standing at different angles. It isn’t bulky any it is easy to clean.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Speck has always been a reputable company when it comes to phone cases, and this case is no different. Sure, it’s not the BEST case you can get, but it gets the job done. My ipad fits snugly inside and is protected from everyday travels. Don’t get it mistaken, though, this case will not protect your ipad from severe trauma, but if you are somewhat careful with your ipad, you will be okay!

    Really good case and cover. Works well with every aspect of the iPad. There could be some sort of safety strap for the stylist. The magnet isn’t the strongest and the stylist has fallen a few times.

    Works great as advertised. Disregard those negative reviews. Those people obviously had the wrong iPad generation or ordered the wrong size folio! Fits my 11" iPad Air with M2 perfectly...the magnetic auto shut off feature works every time - NO inadvertent battery drainage....the closure is easy to close and does not open when you don't want it to....all openings for iPad operations are accessible and work great....love the removable camera protector!.... been using for a month and folio has protected iPad during several minor drops! Got on sale for $29 - great buy for price!

    The Speck folio case is essential. It is a well designed storage protector for my IPad Air. I can easily use my iPad Air while it is seated on the case. It is attractive and allows me to use my device in a multitude of positions. For the price it is definitely worth the investment. I recommend it highly.

    Speck Case

    When we recently replaced our 8th generation iPads with new 5th generation iPad Air devices. We used our gift card refund money from turning in our old iPads to get accessories. Trying to get cases the week after Christmas was a bit of a challenge because most stock was sold out. I had wanted to get a Logitech combo folio, but none were available. I had gotten an apple ipad folio, but turned it in as soon as possible as it was flimsy and only magnetically attached. I got my wife the purple version of this case and she liked it. When I returned the Apple magnetic folio cover, Best Buy had restocked and had this black case. It has some substantial cover and protection similar to the Targus case u had for my old iPad. We also have Speck cases for our iPhone 15 Pro Max phones and I’ve had this brand case on previous iPhones. Speck cases seem to give good protection without the excessive weight and bulk of an Otterbox defender case. In the matter of a Logitech keyboard case, I opted out because of the weight and bulkiness. If I do want to do a full keyboard, I can always Bluetooth connect the keyboard and mouse from ou old iMac. I would not have wanted to carry around a keyboard case all the time.
