iPad Pro 12.9" 2020, 4th gen.

Accessories for iPad Pro 12.9-inch 2020 (A12Z Bionic)

The iPad Pro 12.9" 2020 is the fourth generation of the large iPad Pro, equipped with the A12Z Bionic chip, a LiDAR scanner and support for the Magic Keyboard with trackpad. The 12.9-inch Liquid Retina display with 120 Hz ProMotion ensures smooth performance and excellent readability.

Compatibility between generations

The iPad Pro 12.9" 2018 and 2020 have identical dimensions (280.6 x 214.9 x 5.9 mm), so cases are interchangeable. The 2021 model is 0.5 mm thicker (6.4 mm) because of the mini-LED backlight — most cases still fit, but it is worth checking.

Accessory types

• Smart cases — tri-fold cover, magnetic sleep/wake, stand
