Which is better for travel and daily carrying?

The Fintie, because the TPU bumper and microfiber lining handle knocks and bag pressure better. The ProCase is thinner and lighter, so it suits a tablet that mostly stays on a desk.

Does either case block Apple Pencil charging?

No. The ProCase supports magnetic attachment and wireless charging for the 2nd Gen Pencil through the back. The Fintie adds a holder for the pencil as well.

Will these fit my 2018 iPad Pro 12.9?

The ProCase lists all four 3rd Gen model numbers, including A1983. The Fintie lists A1876, A2014 and A1895 but not A1983, so check the number on the back of your iPad first.

Which one lasts longer?

The Fintie's bumper and soft lining wear better around the edges and screen. The ProCase's hard shell is durable but has no cushioning, so corner drops are riskier.

Is the Fintie worth stepping up to over the ProCase?

Yes if you want drop protection, a stand and a pencil holder in one case. Stay with the ProCase if thinness and the frosted logo-back look matter more.

Do both wake and sleep the iPad automatically?

The ProCase states automatic sleep/wake from its magnet cover. The Fintie's listing does not state it, so do not count on it there.

ProCase Slim Case for iPad Pro 12.9 vs Fintie Hybrid Slim Case for iPad Pro 12.9

Both are slim folio cases for the 12.9-inch iPad Pro, and both cover the same four generations. The Fintie adds a TPU bumper, a microfiber lining and a pencil holder, so it takes drops better. The ProCase is the lighter, thinner hard shell with a frosted back that shows the Apple logo, and its 4.7 rating from 251 ratings is a strong owner record. Buy the Fintie if the tablet gets carried around or dropped; buy the ProCase if you want the slimmest fit and a clean look.

Choose the ProCase if you want the thinnest, lightest hard shell and a frosted back that shows the Apple logo.
Choose the Fintie if you want bumper protection, a soft microfiber lining and a built-in pencil holder.
