    Wish I hadn't gotten the leather...

    • Written by from Saratoga

    Looked great at first, but it is stained and dirty now, just from regular use. Moisture and oils from hands have made it look nasty and dark, and the edges are starting to curl up. Not worth $69 at all. Should have gotten the polyurethane.

    iPad red cover - solutions

    • Written by from Brasov

    46 of 50 people found this useful

    I have the red leather cover for my iPad for over 8 months now and yes it will get dirty as any cover will, however it can be cleaned with any leather cleaner, just like how you would clean your bags ladies. Regarding the screen, many you have not noticed but the cover actualy remouves most fingerptints but you can always use a touch screen pen and that will leave no prints. And one last thing the cover will unclip if you hold the iPad by it as it does attach using a magnet therefore you might want to buy one of the big bulky covers if you want to hold it like that. The bottom-line is that this product is great for what it has been created, it looks awesome, it holds your iPad up, protects your screen to a certain degree and at the same time is slim and slick. Enjoy it!!!

    OK as stand and cover for storage...

    ...awful to manipulate. Trying to hold the iPad with the cover attached (flipped completely behind or rolled to form a "handle") is awkward at best. As others have said, it slips off easily. I use it as a stand and as a screen protector for when the iPad is not in use, but as soon as I pick up the iPad, I just take the cover off and set it aside (until or unless I need it as a stand or put the iPad away). I could kick myself for spending $69 on this thing. I'm shopping now for something different.

    DO NOT BUY THIS

    I haven't even received mine yet and based on the reviews plan on returning it the second I do get it. There is no way I would trust it to protect my iPad when so many other users have had theirs fall and crack the display.

    well, i got the smart cover and it works good and everything but its SO hard to clean! especially the back side! i don't get how you to wash it!! also, when i click it on my ipad my ipad turns on an off and on and off. Although it is very useful to stand your ipad up to time or stand it up to do face time!! But all together i think its a pretty good case!

    I really enjoy the smart pad. I have no problems with fingerprints as I have seen in other reviews. The leather is quality and functions well. I like the RED product especially. Worth the money!

    Bad product

    • Written by from Blaine

    49 of 80 people found this useful

    I bought an ipad2 less than a month ago then i bought a black smart cover leather one 2 weeks ago and not even few days later my screen started going crazy when i had the cover on. I was puzzled then found out that the magnetic on cover doesnt go well with the metal on back of ipad. Everytime i put cover back on screen goes crazy with weird color so now its broken...now im out of 500 with no warranty. Yes hard earned money goes waste cus of defected product and apple never warned me about that. Thanks alot...

    I love this cover....superb quality and performance....no disappointments. It is everything that Apple says that it is! Just one more example of industrial design excellence.

    I much rather would have bought the polyurethane because for one I thought it would last longer and two it was cheaper but my favorite color is black so I didnt have a choice apple needs black polyurethane smart covers!

    I use my iPad every day and the cover looks brand new! I think the key to any cover is to just take care of it like you should. Very Happy and hope the iPad 3 coming out has a cool type of cover like this as well.

    NOT VERY Smart Cover

    • Written by from Newnan

    32 of 44 people found this useful

    I know 4 people(including myself) that have had to spend $418 to fix our broken screen. Cover does not hold on to the ipad. Slips out. Boom. Hit the ground and breaks the screen. Apple will not help on the replacement costs. Cover is flawed. Buy on that holds on to the jewel. Apple markets "Easy on", that means easy off. Beware.

    I bought this cover when I got my Ipad 2, there is not much protection to the Ipad, so I returned it the next day. I bought one that fits like a book cover all over.

    The smart cover works great, I only wish that it would cover the back too. I like to not scratch up my iPad and with the back right out in the open it gets scratched soooo easily. Also if you stand the iPad up where it is more unstable...when I play fruit ninja or some other game like that it falls over and hits real hard because it is still somewhat heavy.

    Beautifully performs as advertised

    Pros
    - The magnet is still strong.
    - The case brings iPad in/out of sleep every time it's opened and closed.
    - The leather is still in pretty good condition.
    - Provides great protection for a case of this type.

    Cons
    - Grooves in cover allow air and oil to form lines on iPad screen.


    I've had this case for roughly 6 months. I've tried 7 different cases since I purchased the iPad 2 and this is the best case I encountered of it's kind. Many of the reviews for this case are complaints about what should be expected when taking into consideration what the case is made of and how it's designed. With that said:

    - The case has never separated from the case unless I was testing how strong the magnetic connnection was (and that takes a fair amount of effort).
    - I've yet to hear of ANY leather product (for $70 or less) that doesn't take on scratches.
    - It's a cover and shouldn't be expected to provide as much protection as a full-body case.

    Leaves stripes on my screen

    • Written by from Lake Orion

    The soft suede inside of the cover leaves three wide stripes across the length of the iPad screen that are not that easy to wipe off. The stripes align with the smart cover folds. The screen stays cleaner without it.
