This is my second Pivot Case. Pivot is looking to improve its designs, but this update falls a little short. My former case (T21A) had an issue with the corners tearing off. The new design (A35A) fixes that, however, any time I want to mount my iPad, I have to take the cover off and store it somewhere else, whereas with the T21A case, the cover was secured to the mount and the base flipped around to fix into the cover with the iPad facing outwards. The A35A requires me to remove the cover and store it somewhere else leaving the iPad vulnerable to drop damage when I have to fish out the cover after using the mount. The A35A does a much better job of securing my Apple Pencil than the T21A. The pencil has much more case surrounding it.
Be aware, the A35A comes with the “A35A Pencil Edge”. Don’t be confused by the site’s description of the Pencil Edge. This is not something that secures the actual pencil, but provides more protection for the iPad if you aren’t using the Apple Pencil.
