    Poor construction

    Extremely disappointed as the cover has started to peel apart at the edge. I took it back to the Apple store and was told that it was cosmetic and that it was not considered a defect. Buyer beware. The product will fall apart with light usage and Apple does not stand behind their product.

    When I decided to buy the new ipad since2 months, I ordered this "smart cover" instantly in navy blue leather...it was love at first sight but life long hate....I bought it because my brother had one in red, and I liked the idea intially. When I started to use the cover, it looks great on my white face ipad and has a great touch feel to it. The ugly part of the story is that I figured out this cover is not for professional or heavy duty use. First is detaches very easily when the ipad put up straight. Second, the sitting position of the machine with this cover is not practical for typing or viewing. In summary, the claimed"smart cover" is not that smart...it is flimsy, awkward and a white elephant.
    I decided to claim for a return and refund for my money since I already found a good product finally.

    Junk

    Don't waste the extra $ on leather.. After a couple months it starts to get loose on the hinge, so it doesn't fit right.. Just get the polyurethane.. It works much better for 30 less.

    Definitely a DO NOT buy

    Upon opening the box that came in the mail the first thing I thought was I paid $70 for this. And I was right. Cover offers very little protection for the iPad. It comes off way to easy which makes it hard to hang on to. I drop mine 6 hours after getting it in the mail and it shattered the screen.

    Such a disappointment for $70

    When I first removed the cover from the packaging the first thing I noticed was my thumbprint on it, then my handprint. It absorbed the oils from my hand immediately and looked 3 yrs old. It DOES NOT work properly for the iPad 3. When I hold the cover I constantly hear the clicking on and off, think the magnets are in the wrong place. The case also leaves long smudges on the screen from the creases; another annoying factor. Thing is I would have no problem If this case case was $20 but $70 is outrageous for such an inferior product.

    Bought it. Hate it.

    Why would an iPad cover only cover the front? The price should definitely be cut in half since it's only half a cover. I wonder if I could return it back...

    Falls off all the time

    It looks great but the magnetic clip falls off all the time and the cover flops around when using it.

    Overpriced Flap of Leather

    • Written by from East Greenwich

    $69 for a flap of leather with two magnets to attach it to the iPad. Does not protect the back of your iPad, so prepare for it to be scratched up. This flap of leather does fold nicely, does attach extremely easily and accurately, but that's it. Not very "Smart" at all.

    Not very good for protection

    I knew this case would not cover the back. I was prepared to accept the back of the iPad getting scratched. However, this does not stay on the front either. The least little bump and the very weak magnet lets go and the cover and iPad are apart. If you do buy this, skip the leather as well. For the look and feel, it is the same as plastic. To me, this case is a BIG disappointment.

    I have yet to figure out how to keep this dumb cover ON the iPad and then it only covers ONE side??? $$$ 59.00 for this? SHAME on you Apple! I have my new iPad in my old iPad cover. It is a bit too large for it but at least it is protected.

    An Expensive waste of money

    I ordered this cover for my new iPad, and it arrived last night. Within a few minutes it picked up an ugly stain while it was on a clean table. I cannot remove this stain, and it makes the cover an ugly piece of junk. Please don't believe the reviewers who say that this creates an attractive "Patina". I appreciate good leather, and understand the concept of a Patina. This is simply an ugly stain. Too expensive, and a tremendous disapointment. If you buy this in any color you will wish you had heeded this warning.

    Only covers the front

    Offers no protection for the sides, corners, and back. This is definitely a "minimalist" cover.
