Smart Folio with auto-wake/sleep is the classic daily choice. Tri-Fold cases add a stand for typing and watching videos. Outdoor cases with reinforced corners and drop protection up to 2 m suit travel and rougher use. Look for a slightly raised display lip so the iPad never rests on the table surface.
Apple Pencil 2 (magnetic edge pairing) and Apple Pencil USB-C work. Apple Pencil Pro is not compatible with this model.
Tempered glass (9H, 2.5D edge) is the best protection against scratches and drops, with high transparency. Paper-feel films (e.g. ANANK PaperLike) are the right choice if you use Apple Pencil intensively for notes or drawing — writing feels like paper, with light resistance and no glass glide. Some users layer both.
The original Magic Keyboard (2020) is compatible — with trackpad, floating magnetic mount and USB-C pass-through. The new Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro M4 (2024) does not fit because the chassis dimensions differ.
In our German-speaking-Switzerland stores we advise you in person on protection, Apple Pencil and keyboard options for the iPad Pro 12.9” (2020). For repairs we connect you with our service partners. 14-day returns on all products, 2 years Swiss warranty.
The iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020) with the A12Z chip and LED Liquid Retina, ProMotion is an established Pro generation. Compatible with Apple Pencil 2 and Magic Keyboard. USB-C port. A12Z refresh in iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020).
Four case types are popular. Smart Folio (Apple's official cover) folds front and back as a magnetic folio, wakes the iPad on opening and supports a stand and a writing angle. Smart Cover only covers the front — lighter, but no back protection. Hardshell cases in PC + TPU offer better drop protection for backpack and travel — especially useful for commuters. Leather cases look elegant and develop patina. Sleeves and carry bags are useful additionally if you carry the iPad without a case. Important: cases for other iPad Pro generations usually do NOT fit — the iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020) has its own dimensions. Always check the explicit model year (2020) when buying.
Three protection types are common. Tempered glass offers the highest protection against impact and scratches — the standard pick if you don't use the Pencil. Anti-glare films reduce reflections — useful at the park, near windows or under office lighting. Paper-feel films have a matt, slightly textured surface that makes writing and drawing with the Apple Pencil noticeably more pleasant — almost like paper — and reduce Pencil slipping. A must for notes, sketchnotes and illustration apps such as Procreate, Notability or GoodNotes. Note: paper-feel films wear down the Pencil tip a bit faster — replacement tips are available individually.
The iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020) is compatible with Apple Pencil 2 (magnetic pairing on the side). We carry matching Pencil tips (standard, paper-feel tips for matt films, softer tips for quieter writing), Pencil grips in silicone or leather for more ergonomic handling during long writing sessions, and Pencil cases with carabiner to clip onto a bag or backpack. Note: Pencil generations are NOT interchangeable — Pencil 1 doesn't work on a Pencil-2 iPad and vice versa. The Apple Pencil USB-C is the cheapest Pencil option but does not support pressure.
For the iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020) we recommend the original Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro 2018-2022 (floating cantilever, USB-C pass-through, backlit keys). The Magic Keyboard turns the iPad into a laptop — backlit keys, precision trackpad and a magnetic floating-cantilever design that holds the iPad at two adjustable angles. Important: the new Magic Keyboard for M4/M5 with aluminium palm rest and function row fits ONLY 2024 and 2025 Pros — not older generations. The original Magic Keyboard (2020-2023) fits the 2018-2022 Pro 11″ and 2018-2022 Pro 12.9″. For cheaper options we stock Bluetooth keyboard folio cases from third-party brands.
The iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020) has a USB-C port. You can connect external SSDs (4K video editing right from the iPad), 4K or 6K monitors, USB-C hubs with HDMI/SD card reader/USB-A and power-delivery adapters up to 100 W. We stock USB-C cables + USB-C hubs and docks, USB-C audio adapters (3.5 mm jack) and multiport adapters for studio setups.
Cases for the iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020) are sized exactly for this generation (2020). Cases for older or newer iPad Pro generations usually do NOT fit — the iPad Pro chassis has been redesigned several times. Always check the explicit model year “2020” or the chip “A12Z” and compare camera and port cutouts if in doubt.
The iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020) supports Apple Pencil 2 (magnetic pairing on the side). If you mainly draw, the recommended pressure-sensitive Pencil is the best pick. The Apple Pencil USB-C is the cheapest option but lacks pressure sensitivity — fine for notes and occasional writing.
With the iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020) the original Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro 2018-2022 (floating cantilever, USB-C pass-through, backlit keys) is compatible. Make sure the Magic Keyboard is explicitly listed for your iPad Pro generation — the new Magic Keyboard for M4/M5 does NOT fit older iPads, and the original Magic Keyboard does not fit the newer M4/M5 Pros.
If you regularly write or draw with the Apple Pencil, yes. Paper-feel films (matt, textured surface) drastically reduce Pencil slipping and feel like paper — pleasant for sketchnotes, bullet journals and illustration. Downsides: slightly softer display sharpness and faster Pencil tip wear. Pure consumers (streaming, reading) are better off with clear tempered glass.
For the iPad Pro 12.9″ (2020) with USB-C, USB-C hubs with HDMI (external monitor), SD card reader (photo import), USB-A (keyboard, mouse, USB sticks) and power-delivery pass-through (charge while connected) are useful. USB-C docks deliver higher bandwidth for external SSDs and 4K/6K monitors.
