When Apple debuted the 2024 iPad Pros, everyone’s immediate reaction was to how resoundingly thin it was. Almost to a point of feeling magical, this 5mm-thick monolithic tablet is powerful on paper, but at the perceived cost of being ‘fragile’. That’s why nobody ever raw-dogs an iPad. Even if you’re running an older model, it’s just common sense to go for a case – a case that not only protects your iPad, but is also seamlessly compatible with Apple’s accessories, like its Pencil as well as its Magic Keyboard.
Meet the Mageasy CoverBuddy, the magic keyboard-compatible case that protectively encases your iPad while integrating with Apple’s Magic Keyboard to maintain your tablet’s productivity. Designed to be seamlessly compatible with the latest 2024 iPad Pro and Air models, the CoverBuddy attaches securely to the back of your iPad, keeping it protected, classy, and accessory-compatible.
Designer: MAGEASY
The CoverBuddy’s slick form factor hides a few beautiful design details. A reinforced magnetic array ensures your iPad attaches firmly and accurately to the CoverBuddy. Meanwhile, its smart connect technology (thanks to the enlarged pin-points) ensures quick, secure pairing with the Magic Keyboard. For users familiar with the minor frustrations of cases interfering with keyboard alignment, CoverBuddy’s magnetic snug-fit design feels like a problem finally solved. Use the iPad independently with your CoverBuddy, or pair it with Apple’s Magic Keyboard to turn your tablet into a makeshift laptop. The CoverBuddy is fairly accommodating of both scenarios, nailing what we call the three Ps – protection, portability, and productivity.
Speaking of productivity, the CoverBuddy has a layer of Graphene that helps with heat dissipation. You see, the iPad’s metal body is in itself a natural heat sink – but cover that up with a plastic case and you end up trapping all of that heat instead of letting it dissipate outwards. The inner Graphene layer on the CoverBuddy promotes better thermal management for your iPad. By reducing device temperature by 1.5 degrees during use, the case ensures smooth performance during long sessions. Whether you’re streaming, editing, or multitasking, the CoverBuddy acts as a silent partner, keeping your iPad running at its best without a second thought from you.
Thermal management aside, the case does what it does best – protecting and supporting your iPad. A blend of polyurethane and polycarbonate (both known for their impact resistance) helps keep your iPad in pristine condition. A dedicated enclosure for your Apple Pencil lets it sit right beside your iPad against its magnetic charging spot, without it accidentally getting knocked over or dislodged from its place.
The CoverBuddy’s exterior comes with a gorgeous premium leather lining that feels much more comfortable to the touch as compared to the cold, jarring feeling of the iPad’s metal body to the skin. The leather’s designed to be stain-resistant too, an added bonus to keep your tech looking pristine. Depending on your aesthetic (or your iPad’s color), the CoverBuddy comes in either black or white finishes.
Starting at $44.99 the CoverBuddy is designed to be compatible with all 2024 iPad models in both 13″ and 11″ sizes. These include the M4 iPad Pro models that dropped at the beginning of the year, as well as the M2 iPad Air models that were announced in May 2024. You can even snag an extra 20% site-wide discount all through December by buying two CoverBuddies.
