ESR for iPad Pro 11 Inch Case with Keyboard M5/M4 Multi-Mode Magnetic Stand

I had the iPad Pro 11 M1 and decided to upgrade to the new for 2025, iPad Pro 11 M5. Not only did I have to buy the new Apple Pencil Pro to work with the new iPad, but my keyboard case for the iPad M1 was no longer compatible. I could have bought the new Apple Magic Keyboard, but really? It's over $300. So off to research new Keyboard cases and ESR, a company I trust (I have two ESR Cases for my iPhone 17 Pro Max and every device we own has ESR Armorite Screen Protectors) and this iPad Pro 11 M5 Rebound 360 case was very favorably reviewed. It comes nicely packaged and includes a USB C to USB A cable (though that's the only thing ESR should change as it should be USB C to USB C) with an easy to follow multi-language user guide and warranty card, you can scan to extend the warranty to two years. Setting up the Keyboard Case couldn't be simple. I did charge it out of the box, but it must have had a good charge to begin with as it was fully charged in about 20 minutes. Then press the power button for about 2 seconds to wake the keyboard. To pair it with your iPad, press the FN/Globe key and the B key until you see the Bluttooth blue pairing light flash. Open settings on your iPad > Bluetooth - look for the ESR Keyboard and tap there to pair. Boom, you're all ready to go. While the 11 inch keyboard case doesn't come with dedicated function keys (the 13 inch one does), you still have all the functions you need. Just tap hold the FN/Globe key and look at the number keys, where all the functions can be adjusted, like Volume Up/Down, Screen Brightness, Changing Audio Tracks, Etc. The Keyboard also has 12 RGB backlit key colors you can choose from or the ability to not use any backlit option. The case is very Apple Magic Keyboard-esque in its design. Of notable goodness is you put your iPad in a nice quality protective case and then attach the case with your iPad magnetically to the Keyboard case. The case doesn't take much effort to open and it offers significantly more flexibility in terms of where you can place your iPad. You can for example, raise the iPad higher if you want, which the Apple case can't accommodate. And you can even place the iPad in Portrait orientation, which the Apple case can't accommodate. Do note that if you place your iPad in a higher position, it needs to be on a very stable workspace as it could topple over. This case as mentioned is Bluetooth. I prefer that over the way Apple's case works, which powers the keyboard by three pins on the back of the iPad when attached to their case. The reason I prefer ESR's approach is if your iPad isn't plugged in when using Apple's case, the iPad is using the battery to power the keyboard. If you're out and about, it can drain your battery pretty quickly (and yes, I had an Apple Magic Keyboard). Since the ESR case isn't using power from your iPad to run your Keyboard, there's much less to worry about if you can't get to a power source to plug your iPad in to charge. Finally, ESR provides a magnetic flap to keep your Apple Pencil Pro safely stored on the case when you're not using it or traveling about virtually eliminating any risk of losing your Pencil. All the buttons on the case your iPad is in are clicky and responsive and all they cutouts for speakers and USB C charging port are perfectly aligned. I'm mightily impressed with this ESR Keyboard Case for iPad Pro M5. For less than a THIRD of the cost of the Magic Keyboard, you get a high quality, yet affordable option, which coming from ESR means it will stand the test of time.

I just got the iPad M4 11 inch and I was looking for a nice keyboard case that I could detach the iPad from as needed. I liked the idea of the Apple Magic Keyboard but (1) I was NOT paying $350, that’s wild, (2) I didn’t like the fact that there wasn’t a case or some sort of shell for the iPad to be in when detached from the keyboard (for $350 you would think they’d give you something), and (3) there was no way to secure the Apple Pencil (it magnetizes to your iPad but I want to make sure it STAYS there, again for $350 you think there would be something). I looked into other options as well and found some cool options from Typecase which is apparently a pretty popular brand, they even had their own version of the Magic Keyboard at a lower price ($100ish) but it was the same thing with the same things missing. That’s where this beautiful keyboard comes in! I LOVE it! First of all the material is fabulous feels so high quality. It’s like a silicone based materiel that feels buttery smooth and soft. The keyboard is amazing as well and the backlighting is great! The case is a little weighty but it is NOT heavy! This case comes with a shell to go on your iPad that you can use on and off the keyboard. I also really appreciate the fact that the closure is made to further secure the Apple Pencil to the iPad when not in use (I don’t know about you but I’m not willing to lose $129 because I bumped the pencil off of my iPad) I know I could talk about connectivity to the iPad, smoothness of the trackpad, keyboard quality, etc as well but everyone else did a great job talking about all of those things with this great keyboard so I decided to hit why I like this better than that overpriced and under-protective Magic Keybord! 😂 This is everything I wanted in a keyboard and I’m super happy with it! Hope this helps! Ps: sorry I don’t have the iPad in the case at the moment, it’s charging and I really wanted to to get this review up 😂

This is a very nice case. Not as nice as the Apple version but solid. Sometimes the touchpad takes a minute to come back to life but not a huge deal. It has a really soft touch to it and it provides more than ample protection. I would say if $300-$350 for a keyboard case just feels wrong (it definitely should) this is a very close second at less than half the cost. Also the keys themselves are big enough and light up evenly with tons of color options. It’s a win in my book

This is a fantastic case! It is easy to use and provides great all-around protection for the iPad. All of the corners of the iPad are well-covered and button access is fully enabled. The Bluetooth pairing is seamless and the trackpad works well. The placement of the iPad in either horizontal or vertical use is effective and easy with a magnetic attachment to the case. The stand is at a fixed angle but the angle works well. The only downsides of this case are: 1) its weight (slightly heavier and thicker than the Apple Magic Keyboard, but 1/3 the price — and the ESR case provides much better iPad protection); and 2) lack of a dedicated storage partition for the Apple Pencil (which is easily knocked off if not being used while the case is open.) This latter challenge is also present on the Apple Magic Keyboard, without a flap to hold the pencil in place while traveling. Overall, this product is a great value. It is a highly functional case, with the biggest problem being the Apple Pencil storage while the case is open. If you don't use the Apple Pencil regularly and do want a great keyboard case, this is one you should purchase.

100% worth it. Price is 100% justified, just keep in mind that if you buy it in white it will get dirty. Battery life has been amazing it’s easy to charge and it brings its own cable. Quality has been great, the material is soft and easy to clean. The backlit has various options and you can reduce the amount of light.

Great alternative for the pricier one. Honestly it is the same quality if not better. I also love that it comes with a case for the iPad when you don’t want to use the keyboard. Lastly the flap closer on top holds the pencil in without it randomly falling. Better value and way cheaper for more stuff. Definitely buy it.

I recently bought this for my iPad Pro 11 inch (M4). This comes in two pieces - a plastic shell that fits snug around the ipad and the keyboard stand part that connects to the shell with magnet. You can mount the ipad/shell in both the landscape and portait position. The magnet shell was not strong enough to stick to the fridge It is great to easily detach it from the keyboard part to use as a normal ipad. The keyboard comes with an attached stand that you have a little control over the angle but just bending the support piece. If you put the ipad on the case in the landscape orientation, the whole things just folds up. There's a little magnetic flap that will close upt the case with our without space for a pencil. When not folded up, the flap can flip in the opposite directly to be out of the way. The keyboard has lit keys that you can change color as you wish. You have to charge the keyboard and ipad separately so if you wanted to charge at the same time, you'd need another cable. The biggest drawback for me is the weight. The ipad Pro 11 pluse the keyboard case is 2.8 lbs (My macbook pro is only 3.2). Compact but not light in weight.

So I’ve had this for a year, and Initially I loved it. I still do like this keyboard A LOT. I really like how you can easily detach it and use the iPad as a standalone tablet and keeping it in portrait mode is so helpful. BUT I have noticed ever since I had my iPad that the touch screen is very unresponsive and not stable. It will work most of the time but have issues where the touch response will suddenly stop working and you can’t even scroll with the trackpad. I finally figured out that it is the keyboard causing this. When the iPad is connected to the magnet, it causes this issue at least for me. It’s a real shame because I think this is such a great product, but it will cause you iPad to not function as well —- The main reason I got this case was because you could turn the iPad into portrait mode, which is really useful for editing photos. I also love that the iPad sits in a slim case and is well protected with a secure spot for the pencil. The first thing I noticed was how heavy it was out of the box, but I think this is needed for this case. For the iPad to sit in portrait mode (and also in the very useful higher iPad view that sits more at your eye level) there probably needs to be extra weight to the case to keep it from tipping over. I’ve been using this for a couple weeks and I only have a few minor grips, nothing too major. It soaks up finger oil and I wish they had a version with a more matte covering, the keys take a few seconds to activate after you’ve been inactive for more than ten minutes (I wish I could extend that time and just charge more often) and the hand often activates the trackpad when typing (you can reduce the sensitivity of the trackpad and just practice holding your palms up to resolve this) Overall, I think this is a great keyboard. There are probably some tradeoffs to the Magic Keyboard, but it’s a third of the price and you get some features that you don’t get on the Magic that are very useful. I love the build quality and versatile nature of the case.

La mejor marca, La mejor calidad, La mejor batería, y Mejor que el original y por el mejor precio, a este precio encontrar un te lado para el ipad es imposible, los más baratos tienen imanes que no agarran, e incluso comparándolo con una marca como belkin los imanes son mucho más fuertes y seguros, además, la funda es una adición increíble, poderlo quitar sin tener miedo de resbalar o caer es muy bueno, lo único que me gustaría agregar sería un sujetador para el apple pencil directo en la funda, de ahí en fuera, no tiene competencia, ni el de apple oficial.

O produto é extremamente bem construído, apresenta uma estrutura excelente e, até agora, tem se mostrado muito robusto. No entanto, vale destacar alguns pontos importantes: • Peso: Prepare-se, pois ele é substancialmente pesado — chega a ter o dobro do peso de um iPad Pro de 11”. Se você não se importa com um dispositivo mais espesso e pesado em troca de robustez, não será um problema. • Teclas: A digitação é prazerosa, mas as teclas são pequenas e exigem adaptação. Como alterno entre iMac e PC, sinto uma certa dificuldade inicial ao mudar para ele. Além disso, é necessário configurar os atalhos conforme seu fluxo de trabalho; nada complexo, mas demanda tempo. Se este for seu dispositivo principal, a curva de aprendizado será bem mais rápida. • Estabilidade: O peso ajuda a manter o conjunto firme em superfícies planas, mas exige cautela ao usar no colo, pois pode desequilibrar.

Excelente producto, lo único es que le falta un poco de inclinación pero funciona de maravilla, ampliamente recomendado.

Well priced, great form factor and the keys don't feel cheap. Best of all, absolutely stellar customer service Keyboard: very nice feel, great range of back lights and no lag when typing. Personally did not miss the function row on the 11 inch, did not find it was too bothersome to hold funtion and another key. Price: great for its form factor and functionality Stand functionality: very sturdy, a bit weighty but helps with stability when open. Protection: weighty but it feels very protective. I would count this as a win especially as these devices are so pricey. Customer service: The best I've come across. Replied within 24 hours EVEN ON A WEEKEND. I did have some trouble with the trackpad, but we found out quickly that it was a faulty model. Best part is that they offered to send a replacement/refund without needing me to send the priduct back. On this alone I will continue to look at ESR products.

Muy buen teclado con su funda protectora le quedo excelente la recomiendo al 100 %, de muy buena calidad.
