You want to make sure that your iPad Air is well-protected while you’re traveling or on the go, which is why it’s important that you choose a high-quality protective case. In this article, we’ve chosen a few of our favorites to tell you about. We’ll evaluate each one based on the level of protection they offer for your iPad and the other useful functions they each make possible. 

What is the auto wake and sleep function? 

Typically, you’ll have to touch the screen or press the home button for your iPad screen to light up. Once it does, you unlock the screen and you can proceed to open any app or use any function. With auto wake and sleep capabilities, your iPad case will automatically unlock your iPad anytime the case is opened, and will put the iPad to sleep when your case is closed. 

How do I know if I have an iPad Air?

The easiest way to check is to open the Settings app on your iPad. If you press the “General” tab and select “About,” you can immediately determine the model name and generation of your iPad.

As you think about buying a new iPad case, here are a few important factors that you’ll want to keep in mind:

Supports Wireless Pencil Charging

The translucent cover design is made to resist fingerprints and scratching. It is easy to install, and features an attractive matte finish. You can choose between two different angles for viewing – a 30-degree angle that is well-suited for typing and a 65-degree angle that is more comfortable for viewing your screen or making FaceTime calls. 

Each case is made with precise cutouts that will allow you to maintain access to all ports and features. It is anti-fall, anti-slip, and dirt-resistant.
