After returning an other iPad Pro M4 launch case (which I won’t name) I ordered this one off of ESR in hopes it wouldn’t be trash.Let’s see about that! :pI chose blue but it also comes in boring black too. The core case is made of a softer plastic (maybe TPU?). It has a raised lip that protects the screen a bit, which is nice. The inside has a soft feel. It’s not fabric but somehow feels like softer texture than the rest of the case. Much nicer than rigid plastic on other cases that won’t be named.Putting the iPad Pro 11” inside the core case, I immediately noticed a very snug fit.All holes and cutouts are aligned perfectly.The core case does add some weight but not enough to complain about. Now the core or main case magnetically attaches to the the folio. The magnets are strong! Once attached, weight becomes MUCH more noticeable. Similar to my Zugu case with 2018 12.9” iPad Pro. That’s definitely something to complain about for some of you. The saving grace about this beefcake folio is two fold (no pun intended).1) The Folio can be left behind and your iPad would still be protected by the main case. You can use the folio as a home base of sorts and dock it at your desk / bedside when needed. Put a screen protector on that sucker and you’re still better off than Apples own folio (protection wise).2) The Folio part is fricken great.Yup, fricken great.You see those six grooves? The bottom flap uses magnets that fit inside and don’t budge unless you force it to. Once you get to the 4th 5th and 6th groove, the case becomes a bit wobbly which would be an other unfortunate CON if the second flap on top didn’t exist! Second flap? Brilliant bit of engineering. Once you deploy that, it’s back to being completely sturdy. No wobbles!Tested the case in bed and unsurprisingly it worked perfectly.I was at the Apple Store testing out their folio on my lap and even now that it’s redesigned to be more stable, it still isn’t sturdy enough to inspire confidence on my lap (in the upright position) let alone laying down. I digress but the ESR case is ideal in this regard.One last thing on viewing options.Detach the main case from the folio and move it up a few inches until it magnetically snaps back in again. That’s right, your ipad pro’s case lifts, bro!Looking at ESR’s info, (or reading that silly comment I just typed) I wouldn’t blame you for passing this feature off as gimmicky. It’s totally not though and actually really useful. Raising the iPad those few inches gives a better viewing angle on a desk, counter etc.. The best part is it’s still sturdy to the point that I’m comfortable using it this way in bed.And it’s way more comfortable this way because my head doesn’t have to be propped up with my neck bent as much!Now that I’m done gushing about the folio, there are a couple more things worth mentioning.The sides of the folio can feel a bit sharp while handling. Not sure if it’s a good idea to file them down myself but it would be great if these edges were rounded off. The sides of the main case also have a bit of flex to them when holding the iPad. When you fold the flap from the folio closed to protect your iPad’s screen, a magnet tells the ipad to go to sleep. Unfortunately, this magnet does not keep the flap closed for some reason. If you let gravity have its way and flip the case over, the cover will fling open. I think this is an oversight and something ESR should definitely fix.So yea, I think that’s all I have to say for now. Honestly, this launch has been a bit of a 💩 show with cases. Among the ones available, this ESR Shift series is the star of the show by a wide margin. Is it perfect? No. The folio part is really heavy, the sides are sharp to the touch and the flap cover won’t stay closed. But I’ll take these tradeoffs for the sturdiness and features it has (for now). Additionally this is hands down better than my old Zugu case which surprised me.Thanks for watching, don’t forget to like, sub… oh wait, that’s not what we do here… 🤣

The functionality, versatility – it’s incredible. It can be configured in many ways. Propped up at a customizable viewing again on a table or lap, perhaps you just want to use it at a slight angle on a flat table. Easy enough. Raise it higher? Yes because off the magnets. It can be taken off the outer stand easily and then it’s like a light iPad with a skin on it. It’s amazing. And the price is great! The only caveat is that it is heavy and thick when all put together, but magnets are obviously heavy. Just get it. You’ll love it.

The idea of the case is great. It provides plenty of protection and provides many different viewing angels, however, it has few flaws that made me return this case even though I was already provided a refund. I just couldn’t keep it even after getting a "no return" refund.1. The edges around the case is sharp causing discomfort when holding the case.2. Alignment around the front camera is weak so the rubber part protrudes out of the iPad which shows the bezel. This looks really bad and it is bothersome since you look at that part the whole time.3. The case is heavy and takes away from the light iPad experience.4. Magnetic flaps are not really flush and look kind of bad.5. The raised desktop mode does not feel very secure and it wobbles a lot.

I bought Zuga cases in the past for my iPads, but they hadn’t made one for the new iPad Pro 2024 11”. I tried this instead, and I haven’t been disappointed. It was a very tight fit. It stands up well the magnets work well, and it has It has multiple angles in which to view your iPad. It protects the iPad very well. So well that I brought it on a trip that I’m currently on in Japan. I highly recommend this product.

I needed a new case for my iPad Pro 11 M4 and Zugu, my former case maker, missed the launch date. So I decided to try this one. It’s a good case. Nice and solid. Easily positioned for reading and keying in stuff in bed and in front of the TV. I have a magic keyboard, but like a case like this for using the iPad around the house or out at appointments. And I want it to be protective and sturdy enough that I can prop it up and it won’t fall forward. It also helps if I can get a color I can spot easily if I forget where I left it. This checks all of those boxes. It is snug around the device itself, but will allow you to remove and replace it without too much work. It pops right into the case then the case attaches magnetically to the case back. It feels like I’ll get a couple of years out of it, which at this price I expect. So I recommend it. I did add a glass screen protector, which you’ll have to buy separately, but well worth it. Especially with the price of this new device.

The negative reviews you see of people saying it doesn’t fit, it clearly shows next to their review which they ordered and ALL show they ordered the iPad Pro 4/3/2 which means they ordered the wrong one!! Clearly has an option for iPad Pro 2024!! These people either do not read or blame the manufacturer for their bad choice in selecting the wrong one.It fits perfect, great case!!

Me gusta que protege muy bien el iPad. Lo que no me gustó es que el espacio para el lápiz es muy incómodo y no lo protege. Además es un estorbo para cuando se guarda en el bolso o mochila

I picked this screen protector kit up for my new iPad Pro 11" M4 (2024).It comes with an application frame, user manual, two screen protectors and two cleaning kits. Each cleaning kit contains an alcohol wipe, cleaning cloth and some dust removal stickers.ESR have a tutorial online that walks you through the process. All you have to do is clean your iPad Pro with the wipe and cloth and then remove dust using the stickers. Then align the screen protector over the display and onto the frame peg.I did get some bubbles during the process so had to lift the screen protector up slightly afterwards to remove them. I also managed to get two small dust marks under the screen protector (despite the display being dust free). Perhaps some dust landed after cleaning and shortly before applying the protector.Still really happy with the results as the small dust marks aren’t that noticeable when the iPad is in use. Swiping and using a stylus still seems ok too (though I’m not an artist so not the right person to ask about that).My main gripe with the kit is that only one alcohol wipe is provided in each kit. Alcohol wipes do tend to dry up quickly so I would have liked some spares in each kit in case additionally wiping was necessary.Overall, happy with the purchase and can recommend it to others 👍

There are pros and cons to this screen protector.It is super easy to put it on. And you can remove it easily whenever you want. It is reusable, no issues there. It feels like paper. However, my pen occasionally skips a line or so. I suspect this is due to the screen protector. It is to be expected though.Here are my main concerns. The screen is smokey. I am no way keeping this on all the time since the screen quality drops significantly. I take notes when reading PDFs, and I was hoping to use the product. I am wondering how much I will hate this smokey view through the protector when reading PDFs. The note taking aspect is fine. Honestly , the smoky feeling is my biggest concern at the moment 🙁 As you put this on and take it off, it is bound to have finger prints all over it. I understand it is washable but I can sense that this will be a pain to keep clean.If you do designs, or take notes constantly, I think the product is worth it. You know that you’ll keep this on for a couple of hours. Though watch out for that smoky view. However, if you are not heavy on the note taking or design apps on Ipad, then you’ll use the product occasionally and I am not convinced it is worth it.

The case feels well made. There are two flaps that are used as supports that slot into the overall iPad cover which has notches in enabling different angle heights to be achieved to view iPad. There is literally every slope angle needed. What is really good is the slots the support go into and the notches the have magnets in so once slotted in, when you start then tapping the iPad screen there is no risk the support will collapse like on cheaper cases. In addition the free sub case the iPad comes in detaches which is great for sketching etc where you don’t want the rest of the bulk but equally require protection to the sides and back.
