Reviews for iPad Smart Cover - Polyurethane - Blue

I just recieved my cover, and it is very nice. However, I would like to have something that covers the back side of my iPad. This is a great cover for the front screen, but leaves the back side exposed. I would also like more lift from the support of cover when using from desktop view.

This cover is horrible! I've had my iPad for over a year, never dropped it once...(had a different cover). I have had this cover for 2 weeks...dropped it 4 times..and when it drops there is no protection as the cover is still in your hand and your iPad is on the floor. The magnet is not half strong enough. I guess it does what it is supposed to if you are buying it as a stand and and to put the iPad to sleep when closed....BUT DO NOT BUY THIS FOR PROTECTION! Especially do not buy if you have children that ever touch your iPad! I've taken mine off for now until I get a new one...maybe I'll try the smart case. I think nothing on my iPad is better than this cover.

I am surprised that company like apple sells these type of cases ( i bought a smart cover case). It is annoying to deal with , it doesnt hold the ipad , it constantly falls and seems to be pretty useless for 45 dollars plus tax it is a waste of money

Had this case for about a week, then it just lost the magnetism. I mean, it's completely useless now.

It's really good because when you close it its cleans the screen which is good I would defiantly recommend it :) thank apple

this cover is awesome
is worth the value

Have two of these one grey and one blue . The blue one is prone to fading
Good points
Acts as a stand
Puts the iPad to sleep
When using the iPad it can be put behind the iPad giving a nice soft surface to hold the iPad
Bad points
Does not protect the back of iPad therefore resulting in lots of scratches on the back of iPad
The blue color fade to a light blue color
Does not protect the iPad completly ( found this the hard way ) dents have been formed on my iPad and it really hurts me to see those dents , so best is to take the smart case

The product is excellent; I have nothing bad to say about it. It works well, covers the screen well, and looks sharp. The only thing I think people should know is that it's not as deep a blue as is shown on the website. The best thing I can compare it to is UNC Tarheels blue. It's not a bad color at all, but I go to the University of Kentucky, and UNC-colored anything isn't received well here. But if you don't mind the color, I love the cover and wouldn't dream of buying anything else!

The case is a nice, clever design for protecting the screen without covering the whole iPad and losing the aesthetics of the product. Works well as a stand as well.

BUT....like some others here, I am highly unimpressed by the product's durability. Within a few months the polyurethane cover was pulling away from the suede-ey protecting inner lining, and now after 6 months it looks nothing but tatty. I don't think I have been particularly abusive, rarely ever taking it outside the house. It's actually so poor, I may try getting a warranty replacement because the glue seems to be faulty and for £35, I would expect better....or at least a longer lifespan.
