Pros: 1. This thing works perfectly with the magic keyboard. The fit is excellent, and all the connections feel sturdy. 2. It holds the Apple pencil very firmly. 3. It works with magic keyboard passthrough charging. 4. It protects the three exposed sides of the iPad when used with the magic keyboard. 5. It makes the iPad much easier to open when the magic keyboard case is shut.
Cons: 1. The volume buttons are difficult to access. You can cut some plastic off to fix this, but we shouldn't have to. I wish it was designed this way from the beginning. See photos. 2. It doesn't protect one side of the iPad, but that may have been intentional due to magic keyboard compatibility reasons, so it's not really something to complain about. 3. Depending on your specific USB-C cable, the cutout to charge the iPad may be slightly too tight. This will allow charging, but the cable may easily fall out.
