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 1 is supported. Pairing requires the Lightning port. Apple Pencil 2 or Pro do not work.
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.
Apple does not offer an official Magic Keyboard for this model. Third-party Bluetooth keyboards (with or without stand) are the alternative — they pair via Bluetooth and work on any iPad.
In our German-speaking-Switzerland stores we advise you in person on protection, Apple Pencil and keyboard options for the iPad Pro 9.7” (2016). For repairs we connect you with our service partners. 14-day returns on all products, 2 years Swiss warranty.

RPD has the right accessories for your iPad Pro 9.7” (2016) from one source: Smart Folio and protective cases (1 models in stock), tempered glass and films (1 variants). Same-day dispatch from Basel, free above CHF 15, 2 years Swiss warranty on every product.
The range stretches from Smart Folio with auto-wake/sleep, through slim hardcase and Tri-Fold models with 360° protection, rugged outdoor cases (drop protection up to 2 m, premium models up to 5 m), and sleeves in faux leather or felt for the bag. Tri-Fold cases from our RPD own brand and Dux Ducis (Domo, Magi, Unid) offer the classic stand mode for typing and video. Many models include an Apple Pencil holder with magnetic snap or slot. Magnetic snap cases with auto-wake function are the most popular daily choice.
Tempered glass selection: classic tempered glass with 9H hardness and 2.5D edge, 3D-curved for full edge coverage, and hydrogel films with self-healing for micro scratches. For Apple Pencil users we recommend paper-feel films (e.g. ANANK PaperLike) — writing feels like paper, with light resistance and no glass glide. Anti-glare films reduce reflections in bright light, blue-light filters (e.g. ANANK 2.5D blue-light filter) ease eye strain on long sessions. Every protector ships with an oleophobic coating against fingerprints and bubble-free application.
Supports Apple Pencil 1 (Lightning adapter required for pairing). There is no official Magic Keyboard for this model — third-party Bluetooth keyboards are available. At RPD you also find matching Pencil tips, protective sleeves and anti-loss tethers — plus sleeve-style protection and cleaning kits for the Magic Keyboard.
The iPad Pro 9.7” (2016) uses Lightning for charging and data transfer. Lightning-to-USB-C and Lightning-to-USB-A cables are in our cable and charger range. Power banks with USB-PD or USB-A output support mobility — a 20 W adapter handles daily use, 30–40 W noticeably speeds up charging on larger iPads.
For cases we carry designs from Dux Ducis (Domo, Magi, Unid, Naad), our own brand RPD (Tri-Fold Smart Case in several colours), HEX-S FE Rugged for outdoor protection, and sleeves from iCarer. Our tempered glass selection is curated for this device. Sustainable options: cases from recycled plastic or bio-based TPU are available.
