Why we cut this one
Apple iPad Pro M5 2025,ipad air M3 2025 — that is the machine this one was measured against. the folio and the stylus go in with the slate, and the outside stays flat enough to slide into a locker or an overhead bin.
A case is worth its room in the bag for what it stops, and on the Apple iPad Pro M5 the part that pays for a knock is the lid. A slate bends before it breaks, so the shell is rigid across the whole face rather than only at the rim. The shell takes the hit instead, so we would rather it be stiff and slightly dull than soft and pretty.
Pack the Apple iPad Pro M5, then an adapter, a dongle and a folded cloth, and the black shell still closes flat — the pocket was sized after the machine, not before it.
Black in 13 inch, and that is the whole difference between this page and its neighbours. It was measured against 13 inch APPLE iPad air M2 2024 A2899/A2900/A2898,12.9 inch iPad Pro M4 2024/M2/M1 2022/2021/2020/2018 A2764/A2461/A2069.
