Kensington vs. Procase

I recently bought a ProCase for my Surface Pro. I was between ProCase and the Kensington case. I chose the faux leather coated ProCase because it had good reviews and another reviewer mentioned that it was cheaper and of the same quality as the Kensington case. After using it for about four days, I realized that the ProCase wasn't what I wanted. ProCase is quite bulky. Case material - synthetic leather. I appreciate the quality of faux leather and I didn't like the look of the ProCase faux leather. (Although, to be honest, the term "fake" puts me off.) I returned the ProCase and bought a Kensington case instead. The Kensington case is more expensive but definitely worth the investment in my opinion. The Kensington case covers less of the Pro, allowing you to show off the device's original aesthetic. Another benefit of the Kensington case is that you can actually use the Surface Pro stand, while the ProCase doesn't. In addition, the ProCase was bulkier than the Kensington model. The Kensington case contains some rubber that may not be attractive to some consumers, but I think it will ultimately make it more durable than the ProCase. The Kensington case also has a more convenient stylus slot. I also think the Kensington case is easier to open than the ProCase, and I prefer my SurfacePro to be easier to access. Keep in mind that this doesn't mean that ProCase is inherently bad; If you're looking for a cheaper full body alternative and aren't concerned about the quality of your faux leather, this could be for you. Mind you, I'm only going to reproduce the Kensington case. four stars (my best ratings are usually four stars - only my wife deserves five). Also, it's only a matter of time before I get tired of even one Kensington case, because ultimately I want smoother, thinner protection than Kensington's and better aesthetics. (Kensington can certainly handle losing 1/3 of its rubber and still provide good protection.)
