I can understand being careful about making sure a glass screen doesnt get sat on. But having to make sure it doesnt get bent when it bends so easily is, in my opinion not a good look for such a premium device. Just because its premium doesnt meant it has to be fragile to all hell.Apple always manages to mess up new devices. They just announced the iPhone X has touch screen issues almost a year after release.
People better be careful with this new iPad and not just toss it in a backpack or leave it somewhere it might get accidentally sat on.
Apple care is MANDATORY at this point for all their iOS based devices going forward.
Too bad apple care only last 2 years
