I thought the ads were exaggerated, but I was wrong

When I was looking for a case I was looking for my new iPad Pro (12.9" 5th Gen 2021) I was worried that I wouldn't be able to use it in bed. I write a lot in bed at night when it's quiet, so that was a critical aspect for me. I had to use it on a pillow and not slip and slide. I already paid $350 plus shipping for the latest Apple Magic Keyboard, thinking it would at least be safe. (Is it, but it's also very heavy) This ZUGU case is worth every penny and it's the first time the ad didn't resell something. The magnets are very strong. Each slot in the angle adjustment platform is secured with powerful magnets. It never slides from one to another and collapses. The Apple Pencil 2 fits securely on the screen, charges quickly and connects via Bluetooth. When not charging, it slips into a snuggly case on the back. It's very safe there, and moving with all the traveling I've done since I got this case, all the packing and unpacking, and even dropping my entire iPad on the floor and almost having a heart attack this pen does not. And my iPad was not damaged. In the photos you can see the sides Slots on the setting platform, the front of the case and the narrowness of the bezel (and this is the review page I'm posting right now), on the back, closed front and sides, hanging magnetically on my closet door, a non-slip screen bottom/lid with a on it adhesive mask and an alternative way to use a stand. My apologies for the background as this was all filmed in my bedroom to emphasize that it stays in place even on unstable surfaces like pillows. I really love this shop! Together with the Samsers foldable ergonomic Bluetooth keyboard, this setup is perfect! As big as my new iPad is, I was also concerned that any case would make it bigger and more cumbersome to carry. This ZUGU case is thin and durable, and its surface is comfortable to grip yet smooth. It's easy to hold. So easy I forgot how big this iPad was until I picked up my old 9.7 inch iPad 6. The one in one case even heavier than this one. I wish I had the magic keyboard back. I opened the box, put my iPad in, made sure it was plugged in and working and folded into the case, then put it back in the box and tried this bluetooth keyboard case. I never touched the Apple Magic Keyboard again. I would have the magic keyboard back.
