Reviews for iPad Smart Cover - Polyurethane - Dark Gray

Product covers screen and acts as a stand as described. However while standing it has detached unexpectedly, toppling the iPad to the floor. Needless to say, I am searching for another product.

Very happy with this buy, does what it is supposed to do, PROTECT THE FRONT. There are so many people mad because it doesn't protect the back. It is a cover not a case. And it is a very good cover

My husband bought me a new ipad 3 for my birthday! He also bought me the ipad smart cover in green.
As a teacher, I have had many workshops to help me learn my ipad. While at the workshop, my ipad cover kept falling off. Our presenter finally just took my ipad to help me get back up with the presentation. After disrupting the presentation, she just said, "This just doesn't work! Take it back! It won't stay on!"
I haven't asked for a refund yet because I don't know what I should get! I love my ipad, but I don't know what to get to protect it!
The cover just won't stay on!

I just upgraded from the original iPad to the new one, and I always thought the Smart Cover was kinda goofy.

But now that I have one, I realize just how useful it is. Sure, it wakes the iPad up and puts it to sleep, and it serves as a multi-position stand.

But the thing I love most is that when you flip it open, it protects the back of the iPad -- and makes it easier to grip! It's truly one of the more clever iPad accessories.

Look elsewhere for a cover for your iPad. This does not have enough protection and is too expensive compared to 3rd party cases. It comes off too easily. It was my only choice when I purchased the iPad mini, but wished I had waited. Now I can't return it.

I've had my iPad 3 since October and just finally got a REAL smart cover. I have two fakes from Amazon, and the real thing is way better quality than the fakes. Even right out of the packaging I noticed a HUGE difference. It's softer inside, sturdier outside (no creases after a week - fakes developed deep creases after the first couple of folds), magnets are better/stronger, and doesn't get dirty. I got the dark grey, and it's definitely worth the extra money, in my opinion. I don't regret my purchase at all.

The smart cover (regardless of color) is nice. Props iPad up to watch movies or to type, but the magnet touches the side of the iPad and scratches it. Should be like the iPad mini where the material covers the magnets to prevent this

This one is great. I've read reviews that the leather one can stretch over time, but with this one it doesn't seem to be the case (no pun intended).

Sure, this covers your iPad screen, but if and when you drop it, your iPad could be toast.

I also found the magnetic connectors to not be substantial enough to resist coming off when holding with one hand.

I am getting a cover that the iPad slips in to so I have some protection of the corners should I drop my iPad.

I have had this cover for 1-2 years now and I loved it until recently, when the rubber part of the cover started to fold in on the hinge. It's too bad that they didn't design that part to be hard rubber or light plastic, instead of the soft bendable rubber that it is.

It's a major disappointment and I would advise you to look for an after-market cover instead. They don't seem to have this problem.
