This is a sturdy case overall that protects the iPad really well while looking fun as a composition notebook and reminding me of the old days. It's easy to do touch ID, open up the cover, use the camera, and all the usual things you do with the iPad. And very secure storage for the Apple Pencil that charges it at the same time. The one thing it's a little challenging as folding the front cover to be a stand. For me it just wants to unfold and it's too stiff. Luckily I don't do that very often so for everything else it's been fantastic and surprisingly affordable.
