Smart Folio for iPad Pro


In 2021, the Smart Folio remains Apple's most default and ever so unchanged protective case to get for your iPad Pro. Indeed, this iteration of the Smart Folio for the 5th generation iPad Pro doesn't look any different from prior years, but it still does exactly what most people want out of a case.

It can protect your expensive new iPad Pro from daily bumps and scratches and it can prop it up like a stand for reading, watching movies, typing or video conferencing. The Smart Folio case is also thin, light and easy to magnetically attach and detach from the iPad Pro.

OtterBox Symmetry Series 360 Elite Case for iPad Pro


Name aside, this protective case is great, both beautiful and versatile. Like Apple's own Smart Folio, the OtterBox Symmetry can prop up your tablet in many different positions, but unlike the Smart Folio, this case also offers some extra protection.

It covers the iPad Pro's sides and back at all times, but despite that, you can still use it with an Apple Pencil 2, as it has a flap for storing it. If you value extra protection and wish to save a few bucks, you may be better off choosing this case over the Smart Folio.

Spigen Tough Armor Pro Case for iPad Pro



Spigen is a reputable name in the world of tough smartphone and tablet cases. The company's rugged Armor Pro case is one of the best rugged iPad Pro cases to pick if maximum protection is what you're after. It features carbon fiber detailing and a matte finish, shock absorption technology and can also prop up the iPad in familiar ways for easy movie watching or Zoom calls.

In addition, the Rugged Armor Pro has a holder for an optional Apple Pencil 2, plus despite its rugged design, it's not that thick or heavy either, perfectly balancing protection and style.


Spigen Liquid Air Folio



Spigen also has a thin and light alternative to Apple's Smart Folio case called Liquid Air Folio. This case similarly offers protection to the front and back of the iPad Pro and its cover doubles as a stand. Made specifically for the 2021 5th Generation iPad Pro models, it's even designed to support Spigen-branded iPad Pro screen protectors.
