Unlike many iPad folio cases, it doesn’t leave the sides exposed. This flexible plastic case is slim, lightweight, and durable, and it protects the iPad’s aluminum rails along the top, bottom, and sides. The Ascend Hybrid Case covers your entire iPad with cutouts for the power button, speaker grills, and USB-C port. The volume buttons are covered as part of the case. The power button can be accessed via a deep cutout, but you have to dig in to access the button’s built-in fingerprint reader. The sides and corners of the Ascend Hybrid Case are armed with shock-absorbing sides and air guard corners to better protect against any accidents.
