Any recommendations for tempered glass protectors for the 12.9? Got a normal brand clear glass and found the glare on such a big screen is really distracting. I like the naked screen with the anti glare coating, but am very wary of scratching the naked screen cos I use the pencil a lot.

Combo touch is very useful for watching contents! I used it since 1st day gotten my M1 11".. No regret!

Because I also use it on the go and having the detachable keyboard being able to attach to the back while in reading mode is really convenient. I can also detach the keyboard when playing games.

On my Slim Folio Pro, I can only flip the keyboard to the back but I'm pressing on the keyboard while in read mode. It's not inconvenient but the keyboard is exposed. I've also to do the same when playing games and it's a bit hard to hold it while doing that due to extra bulk and weight.

I should've bought the Combo Touch when I purchased my M1 iPad Pro on launch day and my current Slim Folio Pro's only just over a month old and still in very good condition. But I kind of missed the detachable keyboard concept, similarly when I was using the old Slim Combo on my 2017 iPad Pro.

Go to the email. Click on your order. They do update the status there. I got an email to update me on delivery 2 days after I got charged. Then within 2 days I got the iMac. The updates gets more detailed once it reaches SG. Hopefully you get your order soon.
I hope so too.. didnt know the 12.9 models are so hot..

I ordered the 12.9 256gb yesterday morning and collected it in the noon. So far so good for IPP. But it's much larger than anticipated... Might return it for the 11.

Guess Space Grey is more popular than Silver.
Lazada having some discount and the 5th Gen 12.9” 1TB Wifi (Sold Out) is priced at $380 below RRP :eek:

The demo 12.9 can be straining on my arm on 1 handed use.. anybody feels the same or I'm just too weak? Lol

Good choice for the Logi Combo Touch (LCT), I got the same too and nv regretted it.

I did some research on Youtube before I bought mine and the LCT is packed with positive review with quite a few reviewer rating it over the Apple Magic Keyboard. It is overall a very practical and functional keyboard case which I feel Logitech has given a lot of thought into the design.

The Good
1. Good full protection for the iPP with the case bumper wrapping the iPP
2. Kickstand that can support a wide range of viewing angle
3. Detachable backlit keyboard with 1 row of function keys which Apple Magic keyboard don't offer
4. Well spaced keys with nice tactile feedbck and the trackpad is very good.
5. The detachable concept allow user to bring the tablet around in the bumper protection when only for content consumption
5. Precise cut-out for speakers, mic and Pencil 2
5. I love the elegant greyish jeans texture

The Bad
1. While it provides sturdy protection, it feels heavy with the iPP
2. Cut-out for USB-C could be bigger as my Sandisk SSD cable cannot be connected.

Generally I will really recommend for those who use your iPP on-the-good. Very good product!

I just received my Logitech Combo Touch today. Some points in comparison to my previous Slim Folio Pro.

1. On first use and connection of the Combo Touch, it prompts to download an app called 'Logitech Control', in which it just have a toggle button for receiving notification when a new firmware for the keyboard is available. On Slim Folio Pro, it's just pairing on first connection via BT and snap onto the magnetic strip on the keyboard to turn the keyboard on and off.

2. Overall built is solid and definitely feels better on the fabric material on Combo Touch. On Slim Folio Pro, it's a type of synthetic material in which over a period of use, will become 'loose' and have some wavy creases on the edges.

3. Definitely slimmer and lighter overall.

4. Smart Connector vs BT connection, eliminates the need to charge the keyboard, which is a factor of the thicker keyboard on Slim Folio Pro due to internal battery.

5. Detachable keyboard which is REALLY useful when playing games and handholding while reading, compared to folding the entire keyboard behind which adds to the bulk.

6. On Slim Folio Pro, the Pencil is secured via a magnetic flap which also closes the case. On Combo Touch, the Pencil is simply just attached to the iPad. At first I thought it might be wobbly but the back case of the Combo Touch have a small raised back which prevents to from backward movement. Still, have to be careful when transporting it around.

7. All round protection compared to only corners protection on the Slim Folio Pro. The USB-C connector when used with Combo Touch doesn't bother me as I use Apple original cables and Mophie's cables.

8. Key travel is smaller than Slim Folio Pro, similarly to my M1 MBP's Magic Keyboard. But all with outstanding keyboard tactility.

Overall very satisfied with the Combo Touch, even though I'm not really a trackpad user. Very nice to hold and I must say it's Logitech's best keyboard case to date. 👍🏼👍🏼 I wouldn't really consider Apple's Magic Keyboard for the iPad Pro because not only it's a lot more expensive, but it's ONLY usable in landscape mode and has no shortcut key which I rely a lot on. But yeah, it's just meant to be a keyboard for the iPad Pro. Versatility wise, it's a far cry from Logitech's Combo Touch.

What draw me to Combo touch is after using Samsung Tab S7+ original Keyboard cover. It's the same kick stand which can be adjust to the angle which u desire. But Logitech one is better in a way that it's fully protected where Samsung keyboard cover is only slap on behind the tablet using magnet which doesn't provide any protection. I drop my Samsung tablet once and the side is dented.. Sold the Samsung tablet after gotten the 11" iPad Pro.

Tempered glass is thicker and will affect Apple Pencil performance. Diagonal lines will be wobbly.

If you don't mind then consider Spigen EZ Fit Glastr
