The latest iPad Pro is, without a doubt, Apple's best tablet to date. It packs the mighty M4 system-on-chip and comes loaded with advanced software features and apps, such as Stage Manager and Final Cut Pro. This makes it a precious investment that could last you for years. That is, of course, assuming you take good care of it, and investing in an iPad Pro case is the surest way to do so. Countless 11-inch iPad Pro cases are vying for attention, but many aren't worth your time. We've narrowed things down a bit to make it easier to find the perfect case for your tablet. Below we've included links for both the latest M4 as well as the prior M2 model, so you'll have an easy time finding what you need depending on your 11-inch iPad model.

Our favorite 11-inch iPad Pro cases in 2024

Above, we've collected some of the best iPad Pro cases for the latest 11-inch M4 variant as well as the earlier models, as they are not quite identical in dimensions. If you need to get serious work done, we highly recommend getting the Logitech Folio. It effectively turns your iPad into a 2-in-1 laptop, similar to the Magic Keyboard (but quite a bit cheaper). If you want the best protection, however, you should go for the Supcase, Spigen Tough Armor, or OtterBox Defender. You also have other options with pockets, kickstands, and smart functionality.

Since the iPad Pro charges the Apple Pencil, most cases here work well with it or have a dedicated cradle to slot it into. Keep in mind that if you're getting a third-party keyboard case, it may not natively support the iPadOS gestures. While a good case will protect your iPad Pro from scratches and occasional drops, you should also consider getting AppleCare+ with your iPad to ensure it's covered in case of accidental damage.

Our collection of the best 12.9-inch iPad Pro cases has more options for those who purchased the larger tablet.
