Pitaka

If you’ve wanted MagSafe-style convenient charging on an iPad Mini, Pitaka’s latest case is here for you.

Neither the case nor the stand comes with a charging brick, and Pitaka recommends at least a 45W USB-C Power Delivery brick if you want to charge the iPad and a phone at full speed at the same time on the stand.

Pitaka’s case doesn’t make use of the magnets built into the back of the iPad Mini, and it blocks the USB-C port from access, leaving you with the magnetic pad as the only way to charge the device.

The Pitaka MagEZ Case 2 is made of the same tough aramid fibers that the military and the aerospace industry use in ballistic body armor.
