ESR Gear Shift Magnetic Case For iPad Pro - Unboxing & Review 

Actually just picked up this case for the 2024 11” iPad Pro and I love the multiple angles and the ability to detach the iPad from the majority of the case.

Excellent review, clear, organized and objective!

You have been most helpful kind sir! Now I can comfortably make my purchase. Many blessings to you!

Your review style rocks!

Excellent, comprehensive review!

Very detailed love it! thanks

Thank you for such a high-quality and detailed review. The case is almost perfect, only its weight confuses

Well done, great review

I bought the protector on Aliexpress, it arrived yesterday and I was surprised that I paid $35 dollars for it but the quality makes me think I paid $100 dollars, the touch feels premium and I love how practical it is for my iPad, it is almost perfect Except for two details, it does not have a magnetic closure on the cover, I solved that by adding an elastic band as if it were a notebook, it looked great! The other detail is that although the magnets are strong, I would have liked the position change magnets to adjust the angle of inclination to be 10% or 20% more powerful. Except for that, it is practically perfect, it is economical and of super quality compared to other more expensive and less versatile cases.

Liking mine just fine. Had an expensive Bridges one with a hard keyboard, but never took to it because it was hard to take it on and off. This one is more versatile.

Does the main front cover stick magneticly if you flip it 180 to the backside?

Do you know if the internal case is compatible with their rebound keyboard case? As in, does the iPad with bumper installed affix to both the shift magnetic case and the rebound keyboard case?

I liked the magnet revealing film. Don't see that in many reviews.

Y se puede usar con un Smart case de Apple ?

I am buying this in place of a decent Spiegel case, which has the little magnet pyramid design for standing, which I'm not keen on. The only issue I've noticed is that the Touch ID button is quite deep to reach through the case, not as comfortable as the Spiegen. I found that this resulted in my middle finger sitting better than my forefinger here, so I reprogrammed my settings. I have small fingers, so this could be even trickier for someone with large ones.I have the iPad Air 5th generation, and they are seliing this case for that model, but possibly the button issue doesn't apply to the Pro? Thanks for a nice video!

Fantastic review, and the case looks especially good! I have one question, the inner part, what is the material like on the inside? Is it soft touch or hard?

I like the case. Its a near perfect case but the deal breaker for me is that there are no magnets to keep the cover closed over the screen when not in use. It just flops open when carrying it. So if dropped there is possibility that it flops open on the way to the ground. The screen is the most fragile part of the iPad and should be protected.

I just received mine after seeing this review. The magnets holding the iPad case to the folio is strong but the magnets on the covers in the rear are not but this folio is definitely stable in writing. I replaced my Zugu case with this and am happy so far. This folio case even has a smaller angle than the Zugu which I thought had the lowest. Some things to mention: this case does feel of lower quality compared to the Zugu, however, the stand feature is a game changer. No other case except MOFT has this feature. I only wish the folio was thicker and magnets in the rear were slightly stronger (for a more solid feel like the Zugu’s). Other than that I’m happy with this case.

Will it work w the Apple magic keyboard without removing the esr inner sleeve?

The perfect case without keyboard ever 👍 My question is how many color options for us?

Will the outer case attach to the iPad without the silicon sleeve that goes directly on the iPad? Or is that silicon case required to use the outer stand portion?

Hi. Can this work with iPad Air m1 5th Gen? Except of course the camera cutout, are the other parts going to be compatible?

I wish this was compatible with the 2018 iPad 11 pro’s. I’d buy it right now

It’s okay to use it with an iPad Pro 12.9 3rd gen (2018) ? In the description it says it’s not compatible but I wonder why, just for the cameras ?

My question is, does the bigger flap go all the way back to the last ridge of the case 3:01 . Or it only goes with only the first three ridges…?

i wonder if this would work with pitaka’ slim magez case

I can’t find it on Amazon. Only the cheaper one of this kind. Where can I buy this?

I just want ESR to make this SAME CASE for the 12.9" pro 2021 :( I can't find any good cases for the 12.9" ........

Does anybody know how to order this from esr india s site because as soon as i put my debit info it doesn’t not accepting payment etc and site starts to lag its only happening with india s site

ESR says the Shift is only for the iPad Pro 11 Gen 3 (2021) or 4 (2022) and NOT Gen 1 (2018) or 2 (2020) even though they're all the same dimensions. Can you confirm that it works with a 2020 Gen 2 iPad Pro 11? I didn't get it because of what ESR claims and bought the similar but more limited Zugu case instead.

Why isn’t it compatible with the Ipad 2018 model? Only reason I can see is the camera, but it would still work I think.

Whats the keyboard you are using at 4:46 ?

Can you stick the iPad in this case's sleeve to the fridge safely?

is it compatible with 2020 ipad pro 11 inch?

It is compatible with Ipad Pro 2020 a2229 model??

Lol 😅. Good review i want to buy it

Does magnetic case affect the battery of ipads? Geninune doubt!!

I wish there is a ipad air version

This case or zugu case?

Not very good as a stand and too much in flaps. The pen pocket is poor material. It’s decent but not great. This dude is obviously being compensated😅

This is just junk. The magnetism in the case is such faint that it drops out all the time. And the little back flap doesn’t work at all. The demonstration in the clip is obviously a trick.
