    Very Pleased

    • Written by

    This iPad mini case is brilliant, and does exactly what it does on the tin! However i noticed lots of people are not happy with it as the back isn't covered etc. etc. . If you want the smart cover, and the back protected, then i would recommend the Incipio Smart Feather case, and it is exactly the same colour as the smart case! I use it for my iPad and it locks the smart cover in, so it never falls off! Briliant two cases, which protect and look and feel brilliant on the iPad. (the incipio smart feather case is a hard plastic snap on, with a lovely feel to it, and a matt finish.

    Mini ipad cover

    • Written by from Suffern

    Excellent cover. Does the job effectively and efficiently. Lightweight too, so carries out the intent of the overall mini iPad design

    Broken ipad! Beware!

    • Written by from Hingham

    The magnetized "hinge" comes detached from the ipad mini very easily! Mine fell and broke the glass. I took it to my local Apple store where they informed me my only option was to buy a new ipad! Also, they do not sell any other cover for the ipad mini.

    In addition to the weak magnet there is no protection for the lens of your camera on the rear of the ipad. If you set you ipad mini down on it's backside the lens will become scratched over time.

    Disappointing

    • Written by from Medford

    After waiting two weeks for the "ships within 24 hours" iPad mini cover, I was sorely disappointed when the product finally arrived. As mentioned in other reviews, the cover does not stay attached to the iPad, is quite flimsy, and I will not even get into the issues with the so-called stand. I've wasted $39 and am now seeking a better alternative!

    Terrible product

    • Written by from Whitehouse

    I thought this would be a great cover but it isn't. The magnet doesn't stay attached to the ipad mini and the cover comes off all the time. It came off today and my ipad mini screen is completely scratched and cracked. Do not waste your money on this product. Buy something that works better.

    Best Case Available

    • Written by from South Porcupine

    Absolutely love this case! My iPad fits securely inside and I do not need to worry about it falling out. The inside of the cover actually cleans my screen and it is now impossible for my iPad to be scratched in my purse thanks to the back. The cover and back are held together tightly when closed so I do not need to worry about any debris getting into the case during transport.

    The buttons are covered for my and the case doesn't make it difficult to use them. When the lid is used for a stand I find that it is very stable so that I can type. The free engraving option offers a crisp white font on the back which makes it visually appealing.

    I recommend this case to anyone who has an iPad. The pink colour in particular is a beautiful bright colour.

    Bad design

    • Written by from St Neots

    I bought this smart ipad cover,not knowing it only covered the screen. I have only had the ipad since february & I took it out of my bag to take a photograph and the case fell off & my ipad fell on the floor & the screen smashed. I took the cover back to Tesco & they said it was faulty so refunded me the £40. They said they couldn`t repair the screen as I didn`t have insurance,& that I need to take it to the Apple store to get it repaired,which he couldn`t give me a price for but thought it would be about £100. I would advise anybody thinking of buying one of these cases to think twice.

    Poorly designed

    • Written by from Toronto

    It's hard to understand how, after designing such a great cover for the ipad 2,4 etc., the mini cover is so poorly thought through. It does not fit a tightly, does not support the device as a stand securely in either direction. The magnet connections holding the cover closed have much weaker grip than the larger ipads do. Please fix this asap

    Really good buy!

    • Written by from potter hiegham

    My boyfriend brought me an iPad mini and this cover for my birthday. I put it on straight away and found it really good. The stand positions are really good, but have to be put a certain way otherwise it may slip. I have read all of the bad reviews about the magnetic fixture, however I found mine to be very strong. I would not recommend holding onto just the cover, as that is why most people are dissing this product. This cover hoas protected my screen from scratches and personally I think it is very good. The only disadvantage I think that is with this case is that is hasn't got any protection towards the back of the case. But you can buy cases on amazon that protect the back and have space for the Smart Cover.

    Eh.

    • Written by from Coram

    The cover is ok. Not in love with it. It doesn't really stand up well and there's nothing to protect the back from scratches. I do like the sleep/wake feature though.

    Disappointing to say the least

    • Written by from Henderson

    Very unimpressed with this cover. As others have stated, it offers no protection to the back of the case. It slips off easily and has been dropped because of this. The cover does not clean well and has become quite dull and dirty after less than a month of owning it. I would NOT recommend this product.

    Highly Disappointed

    • Written by from McKinney

    I was highly disappointed with the design of this product, as back of the iPad mini is not protected by this so call Smart Cover. I am also the owner of the iPad 3 and I love the smart cover for that iPad, because there is complete protection of that product.

    In short the only thing that I liked about the iPad mini cover is that it was Pink.

    Mini cover needs 4 folding sections ...

    • Written by from Tacoma

    I love the quality except the design isn't working so hot. On my full size iPad smart cover it had 4 folding sections which worked great when folded as a stand, but the mini smart cover only has 3 folding sections which causes the cover to easily loose it's stand shape. Apple can fix this by creating mini smart covers with 4 folding sections instead of 3.

    Disapointed

    • Written by from Petrolia

    I recieved this cover as a gift for christmas. I cannot express more of how unsatisfied i am with it. It magnetizes on the side of the i pad. it provides zero protection if you drop it. the magnets have already became extreme weak in the course of one week that i can barely use it to prop up my i pad. it collects dirt on it and i cannot remove. im very disappointed with this product. save the 45$ and put it towards a better case that protects your i pad.

    You have to get one

    • Written by from Boulder

    I am enjoying the iPad mini Smart Cover. The auto on/off feature that works with the Smart Cover is pretty cool. It also protects the iPad from scratches. It is not the most sturdy of a stand, but still functions properly. At home I do use a stand I picked up at The Container Store. I would love to have a second one in another color.

    Love New iPad Mini but This Cover...not so much

    • Written by from Edison

    Pros:
    I love that it comes in pink, just wish it was a nicer shade.
    Attaches easily.
    Does a decent job covering of my new iPad mini screen.

    Cons:
    Cover doesn't stay flat against screen anymore after you've folded it for some reason.
    Color is a dull pink but no big deal.
    Most disappointing is that I can't seem to make it stay folded to prop it up (landscape & keyboard typing position). It just slides down flat. I've tried folding both ways while looking at moving website image for reference also. It worked the first time but now won't stay.

    The price is way too high for this cover and I will probably return it but I was really hoping it was going to be good.
