Useful and easy to use; watch out for ipad2 breakage
Bought the ipad2 a week ago and today as I was getting out of the car, the side of the ipad tapped against the metal door. Didn' t hit the door hard, I barely noticed the tap, that is until I opened the ipad to use it in our hotel room. Huge cracks in the ipad glass (although the screen still works).
The ipad2 needs a full protective case like the Kindle has or one risks breakage like I had today when transporting the ipad2.
I called the Apple 800 number and was informed glass breakage will cost $299 to switch out another ipad2 for mine. Not on warranty either as it was an accidental breakage.
Even before I switch out I'm getting a protective case of some sort. Hard lesson learned. …- Written by Zach R from New York

Works perfectly!
Like another customer here, this cover works perfectly! I have used the pink one for a year when I bought my iPad 2. My husband just upgraded his iPad to the 2 and bought this grey one and again it works perfectly. Those who say it collapses under the weight of the iPad simply do not know how to fold it properly as a stand. I also love the on/off feature of the iPad the cover provides. Definitely NOT disappointed! …

It does what it says
It is super simple to attach, it holds fine, flat or upright, no issues. I like it a lot. A little pricey but hey that is Apple, l oool. I honestly do not understand why people complain. It works as shown in the videos. …

Not up to Apple's usual high design standards
Magnetic bar doesn't hold the cover on very well. It's always coming off. Difficult to fold the cover for a stand, even after a month of use. Back and sides are unprotected. Piece of junk. …

Falls over on level tables all the time
I have the light grey cover and it gets very dirty on the fuzzy side.
I leave the cover on all the time unless I am reading in th e portrait mode, then you have to take it off, if you leave it folded in the stand position and try to hold it with one hand it will fall off and you drop your iPad. If you stand it on a table in the landscape mode it tends to fall over with a bang that makes me think it broke the iPad. It will fall with the slightest touch or sometimes when it's just sitting by itself.
It sure is a poor design, but it's the only thing I have. …- Written by Nelson K from Stockholm

Great As Usual
Great work again, Apple. Sticks well, doesn't fall off, adds colour, is a pleasure to use.

Does the smart cover fit the ipad1?
- Asked by Laurence R from Kapellen
- Mar 29, 2011
Best Answer
Since the exterior of the iPad 1 and iPad 2 are the same dimensions it does fit the top of the scree n. However, the iPad 2 has magnets built into the machine in order to respond to the magnets in the smart cover. This allows the cover to stay in place and be appropriately aligned. Also, this allows the cover to lock or awaken the screen. Essentially, the smart cover will not stay on the iPad 1 because there are no magnets. I would not recommend buying a smart cover if you only own an iPad 1. …
