Urban Armor Gear's latest lineup of iPad cases treats Apple's tablets like the tools they actually are. Designed for the 2025 iPad Pro, iPad, and iPad Air, the Scout Plus, Plyo LT Folio, and Metropolis SE Folio each balance protection, usability, and restraint without drifting into overbuilt bulk. The Scout Plus keeps things light and rugged with TPU construction, corner impact protection, and a built-in kickstand that makes hands-free work or streaming effortless. Plyo LT Folio strips the idea down to clean lines and smart details, pairing an armor shell with a soft impact core, integrated kickstand, Apple Pencil storage, and subtle customization via interchangeable camera rings. At the top end, the Metropolis SE Folio blends business polish with military-grade drop protection, adding a multi-angle kickstand and refined color options that feel equally at home in meetings or on the move. It's a modular approach to protection that respects how iPads are actually used day to day.
