This case is all I need to protect my iPad Pro. It doesn't add bulk to the iPad, but it does have a bulge around the perimeter in case you drop the iPad. It feels comfortable and is therefore not too slippery. I've used this case for my last few iPads and found it to be all I needed. I tried the front cover type but didn't like it. This case seems to be quite durable, but I can't say how it will hold up over the long term as I've only had it for about a week. Based on my initial use I would recommend this case.
