TORRAS Ostand K1 Guardian for iPad Pro 11 inch 4th/3rd/2nd/1st Generation 2022 2021 2020 2018 with Pencil Holder, Ultra Stable Stand, Multiple Adjustable Viewing Angles, Slim Protection, Black

This is unequivocally the best iPad mini case and the reasons are simple. It is slim, protective, has amazing rear stands, and it comes with an Apple Pencil storage plug in case you don’t have an Apple Pencil to store. For the rear stands, they feel sturdy yet easy to adjust. The only thing that stops this case from being perfect is the fact that the stands don’t have grips on the edges which would stop the iPad from sliding if it’s standing up in a smooth slippery surface like some granite, etc. Still, I believe the stands are superior to other standing features of other cases from other brands. I was a huge fan and user of the Zulu case but then I realized, only after discovering this case, that I was unnecessarily smudging and getting my iPad’s screen dirty. Why? Because the six of the flap that, when closed, is the same side that is used as the bottom of the base to stand up the iPad. So, your iPad and the case can get very dirty and smudgy if the defaces you stand up your iPad on are not 100% clean which let’s be honest, they never are. Regarding the Apple Pencil ‘plug’, it’s extremely nice that they included it because not everyone has an Apple Pencil and this plug just makes the case “normal” instead of having an empty Apple Pencil slot on the side of the iPad case look like something is missing. Overall, this Torras case is so nice to hold and use. Another thing that’s holding it back from being the perfect case (besides no stand grips) would be the price. The price could definitely be lower. The build quality is still amazing but making it more affordable would be nice.

Torras is simply the best! I am very picky when it comes to cases for my devices. I have purchased Torras cases for my phone a number of times. Always loved the quality. When I got my IPad Mini A 17 Pro, I had initially purchased a case at the Apple Store. Was not happy with that case at all. I am glad that I came across the Torras Ostand K1 on Amazon. When I received the case I was very impressed with the quality. Very well made in every respect. You can adjust the case to just about any angle. There are other cases that offer different viewing angles but this one does not wobble at all. The hinge is also very well made. I have used it for over a year and it is still like new. The case also provides great protection. I have dropped it a few times. No damage to iPad or case. I also like that it’s got the slot for the Apple Pencil. The magnet is very strong. I know that many complain with the other cases that their pencil falls off the iPad. That will not happen with this case. Once again, I am very picky when it comes to the cases I use for my products. You will not go wrong with this case. It is an absolute gem!!!

I have been a fan of TORRAS products for over 5 years. I used to use their ultra-thin matte black iPhone 12 Pro case, and for the past year, I have been alternating between the camera kickstand case and the magnetic Ostand case for my iPhone 15 Pro. I have been waiting for TORRAS to release an iPad case with the same “Ostand” technology in my iPad’s size (I’m using the 12.9” M1 iPad Pro from 2021). However, for the past few months, they have only had the 10.5” version of the iPad case out, until now 😎. The case is made of solid plastic with two metal kickstands in the center. The edges are made of an opaque plastic that is almost like a hard rubber, and the back is a hard translucent plastic. Definitely high quality and offering more than enough protection for a regular iPad user. The two kickstands offer two main viewing angles, one angled upright and another more flat/low angled. However, what makes this case different from most competitors (including my previous case) is the kickstand’s ability to be set at an infinite number of viewing angles, as the friction on the stand is strong enough to hold the iPad at whatever angle you set it to. Will update this review in about a month, after I’ve put it through some good use, but first impressions are very positive and it looks great! It’s lightweight, sturdy, snaps on very easily but fits very snug with perfect cutouts, and the Apple Pencil protector is a nice touch.

I love the low profile of this case. It’s durable where it needs to be. The hinges on this case are amazing. Sturdy and well made. The people who designed it were intentional and well thought out! I’m truly a fan. Easy to apply the case. The case has a matte-black look and feels good in your hands. There’s a perfect niche for the Apple Pencil Pro so as not to interfere with the strong magnetic section on the side of the iPad.

I've been using this case for a few months with my iPad Pro for work, and overall it's been a solid purchase. I needed something I could comfortably hold without constantly flipping parts of the case around, while also being able to prop it up for typing, note-taking, and video calls. The kickstand is very sturdy and offers multiple viewing angles, which has been one of my favorite features. The protection is excellent, but there are some trade-offs. The case adds a noticeable amount of bulk to an otherwise very thin iPad Pro. It definitely makes the device feel less sleek, but that's the price you pay for the level of protection it provides. My biggest complaint is the metal kickstand. It doesn't have any rubber or grip material on it, and after months of use it has scratched the surface of the table I regularly work on. It's sturdy, but I wish the manufacturer had added some protection to prevent this. The Apple Pencil storage is decent. The case doesn't actually secure the Pencil itself, it still relies on the iPad's magnet to stay attached. However, the built-in pencil slot helps keep it from getting bumped off while carrying or storing the iPad. Overall, it's a durable, functional case that has held up well over the short time ive used it. If protection and versatility are more important to you than keeping your iPad as thin and lightweight as possible, it's a good option.

This cover/stand is wonderfully comfortable to hold and carry. It feels great in the hand! It sets up quickly and intuitively collapses when not needed. It has made my iPad Mini much more useful, and I seriously wish that this cover/stand had been attached from the moment I owned it. The “pen” holder on the side works fantastically and prevents them from falling off and getting lost. That feature alone pays for itself. For both Reading and for Writing it has been indispensable. I ordered the same brand Torras for my iPhone, where it has become just as indispensable - cannot be without it.

I was so nervous about breaking/bending my new iPad when I first got it - it felt so fragile! I was looking for a case to help my iPad feel more durable and this is it! It's super sturdy and has some heft to it as well. I feel much more confident taking my iPad around with me now! The stand is also a nice touch and comes in handy!

Excellent iPad case. I use it every day. It’s very solid and the different arm sizes mean it can be used at any angle. The only improvement I would make, is the little rubber feet that prevent metal on metal contact, fell off and went missing after a few months. Works fine without them, but maybe a little stronger adhesive would help prevent this. Still a fantastic and a case that works for so many applications.

SUPERB !!!

Really meets my expectations. Very nice ipad pro case. Worth a penny.
