    ipad cover

    VERY dissappointed in this cover. Did NOT hold up to claims...falls off easily... I almost dropped my ipad while hanging on to it and the cover while working on it. It's also very expensive for how little protection it offers.

    It's a great cover! Recommendation for those who travel a lot with their iPad, or take it to work everyday: buy the black leather cover. Scratches are unnoticeable and the dye is very durable.

    I don't understand the poor reviews, and the people complain it don't protect the back. If you look at it, it is clearly only meant to protect the front screen and not the back, so the product can't be reviewed based on something it is not suppose to do :-) - i think it is an excellent screen cover, but would never go for the leather version as these gets very "tired" to look at after a short while.

    Smart cover

    I bought one of these covers, wouldn't advise anyone to buy one now. Mine has marked my iPad all the way along one edge where the hinges are, also no protection for the back.
    On the plus side buttons are easy to get at unlike my griffin leather case but that does offer more protection so gets used more.

    I bought the red leather smart cover, and it is awesome. The smart cover does what it says, perfectly. Fits the new Ipad (3th generation) and the material have great quality. The magnetic feature allows you to easily line up the cover in the side of iPad. It stays on well, folds up without problem, protects the screen and puts the iPad to sleep. I recommend this smart cover.

    Is a good product but I don't think it is worth the price. It also doest not protect from falls.

    I am now using this on the New iPad after almost a year on my iPad 2. it has picked up some scuffs and has a few areas that are a little darker than others, but that is what leather does. One of my coworkers didn't realize it was an iPad and hit it very hard with what can best be described as a club. Left a dent in the cover but not a scratch on the iPad. That was enough of a testimonial for everyone else I knew with an iPad to get this cover (not necessarily in red though).

    I dont realy care for the red one but I like that it's leather.
    So if you are getting a smart cover and you are willing to to pay $69.99 then the leather is the way to go.
    Get any color you want
    Who am I to tell you what to get.:):):):):):)

    Red iPad cover

    The automatiic on-off is useful when the iPad face is covered. Fits perfectly, and when folded acts as a support. A bit expensive, but I still would buy it again! Cool looking!

    Good so far, doesn't really cut it as a 'FaceTime stand'

    I'm not sure about the durability of this cover yet because it hasn't been too long. However, I don't throw my iPad into a bag loose with other stuff (it's usually in an incase backpack if it's out of the house) so I assume it will stay in pretty good condition.

    I like the red color - I think it's a nice contrast with a white iPad.

    As I said in the title of my review, I don't really trust the smart cover to hold the iPad up vertically for FaceTime or similar, however it does a good job protecting the screen and propping up the iPad for typing longer e-mails, etc.

    It will not protect your iPad as the regular case would. Magnet holders are very flimsy, keep getting detached. The only thing it does, is to shut/ wake up ipad. Do u really need to spend $69 for that? Just push the button yourself for free. C'mon Apple, not your type of product!

    I purchased the new iPad and needed a cover to protect it whilst maintaining the stylish looks. This product has been fantastic. I can prop it up and watch Movies. The Product Red version is fantastic and compliments my black iPad. Great product from Apple.

    iPad cover Red

    I used this cover less than 2weeks.Very disappointed with the quality of the Red Cover., does not wear well at all. In addition, difficult typing with the cover,constantly slips. I returned the cover and look for a cover with better quality leather. The design of the cover lis good but the quality is not and does not do the new iPad HD justice

    Brand new iPad broken first day because of this cover...lesson for all

    Long time user of iPad.
    Bought a New iPad three days ago and this cover which was the only protection proposed in the Apple store.
    Back home. Configured new iPad. 10 minutes later. Grabbed the cover and the iPad fell off: screen broken!
    OK I will use my insurance.

    Cannot help to think how often this must happen....the right cover to ...brake your iPad....
    No warning from folks at Apple store or on the pack....
    If your are used, like me, to prior Apple casing....be alerted...tell everyone who handles this: the magnet does not hold the iPad!

    Apple: please warn your customers!

    Went back to Apple store...cannot be repaired by Apple. No replacement...
    I bought a new one and I am going to buy Apple stock...

    Exactly what I expected

    • Written by from Christchurch

    Great quality and true to description. Works exactly as described. Note - this is a quality aniline leather (it will soak up grease, oil and liquid spills, may release a small amount of dye and will age). If that's not what you want buy something else. It will not protect your iPad from all damage - don't expect it to! For what I want and expect - perfect.

    I love my red cover!

    It is very convenient and I believe it will help save some juice since it automatically shuts off
    and turns on the IPAD when the cover is closed and opened. I think it is a wise buy to protect
    the investment.

    $40.00?
    This case would be a bad deal if it was free!
    The metal strip on the side is streaked with strange black marks that are scratching the side of my iPad and fails to hold on. I was sitting on the couch earlier today holding my new iPad 3 with 2 hands when the case slipped off and my iPad tumbled to the floor. The case doesn't hold on the the front or back of the iPad, if you try to fold the case around to the back it doesn't stick, it just falls down limp.

    Needless to say I'm looking into getting a refund for this piece of junk.

    Expensive & Ineffective

    • Written by from Penarth

    I know Apple products are expensive, but this is the most expensive waste of time I have ever come across.

    Yes, it does what it says in the description, but when holding the iPad it is far too easy for the cover to detach. This creates a great risk of dropping the iPod as you're holding it by the cover.

    There are many other iPad cases on the market, and many of them have much better functionality than this one does, at a far lower cost.

    I sincerely regret ever having wasted money on this product.
