Our take on the ZUGU Case for 2021 iPad Pro 12.9 Gen 5 Slim Protective Case Pencil

The ZUGU Case is a slim protective folio for the 2021 iPad Pro 12.9-inch (5th generation), shown here in blue. It is known for a magnetic stand with multiple angle settings, a built-in Apple Pencil holder and a magnetic flap that locks the cover shut. ZUGU cases sit at the premium end of iPad folios, and this one is built around the stand and Pencil storage rather than a keyboard. Compared with the Apple Smart Folio it adds a sturdier stand and full edge protection, but it is heavier and thicker.
