The latest iPad Pro has an M2 chip, an octa-core CPU, and a 10-core GPU for next-level performance. The 11-inch and 12.9-inch Liquid Retina displays are great. This is a professional device with Stage Manager so you can do more than ever before on your iPad.
However, the iPad Pro 2022 model isn’t cheap, of course. Protect your investment and maybe add some extra functionality with the best iPad Pro (2022) M2 case.

Spigen Urban Fit Designed for iPad Pro 11 inch M2 Case
elegant protection
I reviewed an earlier sample Spigen Urban Fit iPad case and liked how it gives the iPad a solid, professional look. The outside of the case is actually canvas, which gives the case a nice aesthetic. The folded cap folds into a holder, and you can store your Apple Pencil in the provided slot when not in use.

OtterBox Symmetry Series 360 Elite Case for iPad Pro
tough but skinny
Get strict protection that exceeds military standards, along with a folio-style sleep/wake cover that folds back to form a stand when needed. The Apple Pencil slot can be closed when not in use, making it a slimmer option. I am using the iPad mini version of this case and love it.

Final
It’s not cheap, but Apple’s Magic Keyboard with its floating cantilever design gives you a laptop-like experience, just lighter and more flexible. We reviewed the 11-inch version, but it also comes in a 12.9-inch model for the larger iPad Pro. You can also choose from two colors, white or black.

What is the best case for the iPad Pro 2022 (M2)?
iPad Pro takes advantage of the latest technology with its M2 chip. Any of the cases on this list will help you keep your iPad Pro in good condition for years to come. I like the flexibility that the tomtoc Vertical case provides; Despite the name, it can be folded into a horizontal stand in two different heights as well. Anything you want to do with your iPad Pro can be supported with this case. It comes in several color options and supports charging the Apple Pencil on the go. Best of all, the price point is very reasonable.
If I’m bragging, I’m going for the Apple Magic Keyboard. It looks somewhat architectural with its slim, cantilevered design. The trackpad makes it even more magical. Between that and Stage Manager, this is as close to a laptop experience as you can get on an iPad. It comes in 11-inch and 12.9-inch sizes, in either black or white.
Can I just use my old iPad Pro case?
Most likely you can. The M2 iPad Pro 2022 is very close in size to the M1 iPad Pro 2020, just a few millimeters away. It will probably fit most cases. Check each listing to be sure, but many cases will be interchangeable.
