OtterBox iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) (2024, 7th generation) Symmetry Series Folio Case - Thunderstorm: Solid Plastic Tablet Cover

It’s not the same as the prior version. Can’t use any volume or on off buttons while case is on.

I was hoping this version for my new ipad would be as capable as the last one from 5 years ago. same great design (on the outside) but thinner materials and weaker magnets prevent the case from performing half as good as the old one.

I’m Disappointed that it doesn’t work like previous cases. The ability to fold the case back to use as a stand doesn’t work at all. It just falls. I’ve had two Symmetry cases with my previous iPad that I loved which was why I code this case and I don’t like this case at all.

The previous iPad protector had a magnetic slide that raised up and down to capture the iPencil. It was cumbersome and came apart easily. That is not the case here. The new design, a flap that s Folds over the pencil and magnetically shuts, is excellent. But, the folding stand of the old case magnetically locked, whereas this new design just folds with no mechanism to hold that fold, the magnet is gone. The iPad will continuously crash down on me. Disgusted, I looked at the problem, and fixed it with Velcro dots. Strategically placed, the dots hold well and my iPad will stand up without crashing down. But, why fix one problem feature and creat another? Put the magnet back in the folding stand and this would be magnificent. As it is, this will protect your iPad. But bring a small pillow to hold it up.

great balance of compactness and protection for both the iPad and the Apple Pencil.

I love how it’s light weight and still durable. I’m a busy girl and need my electronics safe from my butterfingers.

The case gives my iPad great protection and has a built in fold over stand to help the iPad stand on its own. I’m very pleased with my purchase just wish it came in more colors.

The fit is good, but the material is too slick to keep the unit vertical when the front cover is folded back. Returned both covers.

High-quality case but very poor for upright viewing. It won’t stay upright without falling down. The rear of the case is too slick and doesn’t provide any friction against the cover when it’s folded into an upright position.

i like thats the case is very slip yet durable and the back is clear so i can display stuff on the back

The hold of the magnet in the standing position is substantially lower than the hold in a previous design that I have on an older iPad Pro. I am hoping that with time the cover will break in sufficiently to moderate this issue. For now, I do not leave the iPad standing unattended. Otterbox replaced the first purchase since the iPad was falling over for no reason. The second one is somewhat better, but not as good as the old one.
