I had pre-ordered a purple cover at a discounted price from Amazon.com which wasn't available so i switched to blue..recently Snugg shipped me a purple cover for free so i am pleased with the price..i love my new iPad pro which fits perfectly in the Snugg case. If you insert the iPad upwards to the max in the Snugg case you can perform the upward swipe motion from the bottom of the screen to reveal the control panel as also you can accomplish the downward swipes from the top but need to slightly lift the rim of the case which is flexible to do so. I have several cases to choose from and the Snugg is my favorite. the soft lined magnetic sleep/wake function of the cover works flawlessly.there is ample space to use the fingerprint function on the home button. the rear cover latch keeps the iPad upright securely on a good angle compared to another cover with a folding pocket that collapses with a slight touch. The Snugg case does not cover the new 4 large speakers which is a beneficial feature. Remember this cover is for horizontal orientation which is my strong preference. you can also grasp the iPad in this cover by the comfortable rear elastic hand strap. when traveling I keep the whole thing inside a neoprene bag. though you can't see the rear side of your iPad through the Snugg case, i preferred a stand with more protection than just a transparent rear cover. thanks Snugg !!
