    I bought a cheap cover on eBay and thought I had saved loads of money. It broke in about 4 days. Bought the Apple one with some Birthday Apple Store vouchers and happiness ensued. Yes Apple products are ALL EXPENSIVE buy they are pretty well always well designed and the best option.

    Great product but-

    I love all apple products and I love my pink smart case for my iPad 2 however, when I try to insert the camera connection kit that holds the USB, it does not fit. The case somehow does not let the connector through and I have to take the case off all together. The case also gets quite dirty and brown in some areas quite quickly. Overall love this product to pieces and keeps my iPad safe from any scratches and marks!

    Excellent cover but poor stand

    • Written by from Ewloe

    Does exactly what it says but is very 'wobbly' when using the stand; I take it a lot on planes and don't trust the stand not to fall over with the slightest bit of turbulence which could lead to the screen smashing. Shame really as it is a very good cover with a funky colour (I chose the red one; looks really good).

    Not dark but mid grey

    • Written by from I bridge

    6 of 10 people found this useful

    I am disappointed with the dark grey colour. It is much lighter than I anticipated. I had hoped it would be much darker almost grey/black. I would say it is mid grey.
    The feel is very good. Not all finger prints are removed from the screen and because it is new there is some fluff left on the screen from the cover each time it is opened.
    I am worried that because there is no thumb hole to open the case, in time the cover will be damaged where it is opened.
    I like the free inscription which was offered. I had my initials and month/year of purchase added.
    I have no hesitation in recommending this cover.

    Unexpected qualities

    • Written by from Glasgow

    I've had this case for around a month now and it's done a great job. It was only tonight though that I tested it fully. Firstly I left my iPad on the roof of my car outside in -3°C temp. the case seemed to protect it fully and it is still working. Secondly though, I actually drove for away from my house and the iPad spent around 10mins on the roof. When I finally found it on the roof at the end of my journey I was very happy to find it sitting there safe and sound! So, not only is it a good everyday case, I can confirm that it also allows you to safe space in your car and leave it on your roof. It'll be safe. Don't worry.

    Best in class

    Have tried several cases for my iPads over the years and can honestly say this is by far the best on the market in my opinion. Had mine several months now and it does "what it says on the tin" so to speak. Everything lines up perfectly i.e. holes for earphones; camera etc and makes a great stable stand as described. Would recommend.

    Just bought one of these smart cases for my ipad 3. Had a few covers/cases in the past but none quiet looked or felt right. So I bit the bullet and bought an official apple cover. Bit pricey, but fits very well and looks the part. So one happy customer, even tho my wallet is a little lighter.

    Just bought it three days ago - I think it is excellent and I have had no problems so far. Really pleased I didn't buy a cheap cover.

    Worst apple purchase i made

    • Written by from London

    29 of 47 people found this useful

    This is a truly disappointing apple product.

    I have an ipad 3, The case works OK in terms of the ipad sitting inside it, but the so called 'propping up' that you are able to do with the rear of the case doesnt work.

    In the upright position, there is a danger it will fall over, so you have to hold it steady. The whole rear of the case feels unstable, and not thought through. It sags when its in the lower position too, meaning the screen is only slightly inclined when in this position. The ipad cover is much better and i wish i had bought that instead.

    Also the headphone jack doesnt fit some headphone jacks so you have to partiallly remove the case to listen to music.

    These are simple things! Apple what happened here? And can i get my money back?

    I recommend the ipad CASE 100 percent

    • Written by from leeds

    23 of 25 people found this useful

    I have my case for my ipad 4 for over 2weeks now and it wouldn't be the same without it. As you'd expect it fits perfectly ,it's super lite and slim, the material feels stronge and your hand grips it very well while holding it one handed it doesn't slip , so you don,t notice it at all ,I'm really glad I went for this one rather than one of those cheaper bulky ones ,imagine how uncomfortable they must be to hold you really won't notice this ipad case at all, as for opening it up I've never had a problem because its very easy to open its held by a magnet I think ,the only fault it found was standing up right position didn't,t seem very stable but it felt like if you knocked table it could fall flat on its face but apart from that its perfect, I went for dark Gray as I have black ipad and you don't notice it at all Thanks for reading hope this helped

    • Written by from Rochdale

    13 of 13 people found this useful

    I bought this case for the new iPad which I replaced with the iPad with retina display or if your like me iPad 3 and iPad 4, anyway the case fits the iPads perfectly and protects them also, my only problem which does irritate me a lot and it is also the same for smart cover is it leaves lines on the screen every time it is closed, would i recommend this product? Yes but my only advice get a toddy cloth at same time

    iPad smart case - iPad 4

    • Written by from Leamington Spa

    14 of 15 people found this useful

    I wanted a case rather than just a cover for the front, but I wish I had just got the cover and bought a case for the back somewhere else. It feels loose on my iPad though it isn't in any danger of falling out. However, the sides of the case come up above the surface of the iPad so dust or crumbs collect around the edges, or fall inside the case (as it isn't a tight fit), as you can't brush them off.
    It also makes the iPad seem bigger because it comes up towards the front at an angle instead of hugging the sides. In addition to this it is fiddly to actually lift the cover up because the case comes out further than the cover all round, you need to have decent finger nails to get under the cover to lift it.
    The cover does the job of covering, but for typing it is too shallow an angle, and for watching TV it is very precarious, just a small tap of the screen knocks it over.

    Very disappointed, particularly as they are SO expensive compared to other brands. Would have got 2 stars but the price knocks it down to 1.

    Not a good fit

    Disappointed I've just had this as a Christmas present as i found the previous screen cover only, wasn't enough protection. However it doesn't fit snug enough into the smartcase and the headphone socket is also causes a problem with sound when headphones are connected.

    smart case not a perfect fit for 4th gen iPad

    • Written by from Hounslow

    66 of 77 people found this useful

    I gave single star b'cos the case is not snug fitting the new iPad (4th gen). Very disappointing product from apple for such an expensive case, 40quit!! .
    The case is very loose especially on the longer sides of the pad, the case slips off. The case is just touching the edges not covering and holding the sides, the case stays by holding just 4corners of the pad. The cover should have made slightly smaller in size or more overlapping on to the bezel, another 3millis should have been perfect. Overall this case is not perfect for iPad 4.

    Poor fit, uncomfortable to hold

    • Written by from Portsmouth

    I have an ipad w/ retina and lightning connector and I find that the case does not fit well at all. The case is constantly popping off around the edges and there are visible gaps around the edge. The case is also not comfortable to hold thanks to way the two sides of the case are sandwiched and bonded together: the edge of the case is very sharp and rigid. The only thing going for the case is its looks and the ipad screen goes off when the cover is closed.

    I first bought the smart cover, but it did not protect the iPad well enough. In fact, to me it seemed a bit pointless. I returned for a smart case and I am really happy with that. Top quality, protects the iPad and nice n grippy.

    It doesn't fit my iPad 2! Not a snug fit at all, its too wide. I sent mine back and have ordered new smart covers instead of cases. Really disappointed as I love the look.

    I just bought 2 of them 1 for my ipad 2 and the other for the ipad new. the case is designed for the ipad new as there is a tiny gap when it is on the 2. I reccoment grey for a white ipad and Red for the black. it should also be noted that is you buy red apple products a percentage of the money goes towards AIDS research and help
