Polyurethane design.

The Smart Cover comes in six vibrant polyurethane colours with a soft, colour-matched microfibre lining that keeps your display clean.

Open the iPad mini Smart Cover, and iPad mini magically wakes up. Close it, and iPad mini automatically goes to sleep.

    Looks nice, fits well...but be warned!

    • Written by from Bognor Regis

    Looks nice, fits well and switches the pad on and off.

    However....because it is seamlessly attached it gives the impression of being more securely attached than it actually is. The problem here is that it is possible to forget that you only have a magnet holding the pad and the case together. You pick the pad up by the cover, the pad then drops away from the cover on to the floor and, as happened in our case, cracks the screen. (On our day-old pad).

    This is no ones fault but ours and I am only posting this as a warning to all of you who buy the cover. Remember to hold the pad and cover together and never separately and never just by the cover. Use two hands – I am now paranoid!     …More

    Light grey versus Dark grey

    • Written by from Warrington

    Fantastic product, clevery designed, and very much in the scheme of slim design of mini. I would have given it a 5 star but for the price, outrageous but I could afford it!
    Word of warning - I bought the light grey first and had to return it. It shows every mark especially newspaper print marks from fingers, due to rubberised surface quite difficult to clean. I should have known but kidded myself i would keep it clean     …More

    Nice looking but a very poor stand for ipad mini

    • Written by from LONDON

    when using the cover as the stand, it is unstable and the device falls over when you touch the screen or use the side buttons. it is far less stable than using the smart cover on an ipad. although it works fine as long as you don't try to touch the screen when using the stand.. …More

    ipad mini cover

    • Written by from London

    What an utter waste of money - the product is absolutely useless. It does not do the job - if you just want a cover then it's OK, but not for anything else. The magnet is too week to hold the ipad securely, and if you're not careful then you are at risk of the ipad dropping. …More

    Perfect!

    • Written by from Colwyn Bay

    There are so many poor ratings for the iPad Mini Smart Cover, but it's sleek, well designed, easy to use and fits the iPad Mini perfectly. I probably would not recommend it if your young child is going to use it (for fear of sticky fingerprints on the fabric side of the cover as much as damage to the iPad!)

    A couple of tips - firstly, don't attempt to pick up or hold your iPad Mini by the cover, secondly, if you fold the cover inside out to form the stand, it won't collapse.

    It isn't cheap but then neither is the iPad Mini - which you are already paying a premium for the gorgeous design and function - so it's a shame to compromise on the cover.

    Finally, if you are concerned about the back or sides of your iPad Mini becoming scratched, well, if it does you can then buy one of the inferior covers to hide it!!

    Overall, I am really pleased with mine.     …More
