    I use the SmartCover when I'm at home. It is so convenient to have it- it's a stand and a wonderful looking cover. I absolutely love it! The color is vibrant and the inside is so nice and fuzzy- it's much nicer than the earlier smart covers. It's definately worth it to have one. I highly reccomend it.

    Beautiful, but...

    Although impressive in appearance, my major disappointment with the smart cover is the lack of adequate protection. Other covers on the market provide greater variation in standing the ipad, more protection, and increased comfort for holding it. After a few months the cover soils and is no longer as beautiful anyway. Skip this product and find another.

    Made my brand new white iPad 2 a whole lot sexier... Color is not loud and the feel is just right. Love loving it :)

    poor design

    I just about dropped my new iPad today when the cover shifted slightly in my hands and the magnets unlatched themselves right away. After playing with the cover a bit more I realized that this is not as good a cover as the first cover built for the iPad 1. Instead this style of cover lures the user into thinking you are doing the right thing to protect your iPad, but if you are a power type user with it you will find that this case gets in the way and you end up removing it when reading a book or cruising the internet.

    I really liked my old iPad 1 folio style case and have searched the web to find a replacement like it. That style slide the iPad into a sleeve to hold it in place and had a nice cover to protect the screen. If i didn't get this one dirty right away i would be sending it back too

    This product is pretty amazing. I can't believe they could get this to work with magnets. I can only imagine how hard it was to get the magnets on the cover to line up right with the iPad. Great job Apple!

    I really do love the way the smart cover turns the screen off and on. To really make this a five star rating, a protective back cover needs to be included with the top. I had to purchase that separate.

    The design is cool and innovative, but the side is starting to wear out and there are scuff marks on the place where it is put on

    I bought my green smart case along with my iPad 2 in October and the magnets are already coming off and it is only December. Very upset with this product, I thought that apple made better stuff than this.

    mostly good

    ood color stability and good quality, although it is overpriced (but what ipad cover isnt overpriced??)
    It is a little difficult to open, dont cut your fingernails all the way down!. Also, for some reason the cover does not seem to bend back as the original cover does for elevated viewing.
    In any case, it is a nice case, good quality, apple style. I bought the green and it is a vivid, alive almost lime green. but the blue was too pastel, too baby blue.

    Great looking cover

    Lime green is my absolute favorite color, and when I saw this cover I was so incredibly excited! It's high quality, the magnets work very well, and it really makes my iPad stand out.

    The only reason I haven't given it 5 stars is because it gets quite dirty. It washes extremely easily, but if I have had it in my school bag for a few days, it can look pretty grimy.

    Strong cover

    This baby has a very strong magnet. No joke. I fold it to watch my videos, to talk to my mom on Skype and it protects my iPad from scratches. No suck-up here. I thought I was gonna get a plastic screen front cover for more protection but then I change my mind: this smart cover is enough.
    Avoid two to one star false comments from people who don't take care of their cover. You need to hold both, not the cover. Jeez.

    It's not worth the money

    I wanted this cover because I made my own case for my iPad and didn't want a cover that was to thick. The problem is, it's very dirty now after a year, it started to tear where there indents are and it doesn't really work for a stand. I ended up purchasing the Quirky Bumper for the iPad 2, which works with this cover and that is the only reason why I have not purchased another type of cover.

    Great front cover

    The smart cover really holds up to its name. I love the iPad lock/unlock feature. And there's no way words can describe how cool it is to have it snap on and off, pretty much effortlessly. The quality of the material is Apple standard, which means very good. :) The colors almost look as good as they do on the ads and the website. I just wish that there was at least some kind of support for the back. iPad has a back too sexy to walk around with it naked, waiting for scratches to happen. I got a Zagg Invisible Sheild HD to protect my iPad's back. You could also take a look at Belkin snap-on case for the back. Another con, there's no support to use your iPad in portait mode with the Apple Smart Cover.

    I chose the polyurethane Smart Cover because i only had $40 left after buying my Bluetooth headphones,and i wanted the green one because it brings out the color of my eyes.I also found a case that works well with it,love the auto lock feature and it protects my screen,i can also use it as a stand when using the iPad's built in camera

    Great cover

    The Smart Cover seems like a great accessory to me. I can't imagine my iPad without the Smart Cover. It works perfectly and lasts. The one thing I don't like is that my iPad now has one little tiny spot on the side where the anodized finish has worn away, leaving shiny aluminum. This is from the Smart Cover hinge. No big deal, though. The benefits far outweigh the cost of a Smart Cover.

    Great for home use, don't use this out.

    THe smart cover is great for home use, but the downfalls are as follows: The magnet that sticks to your iPad can be easily removed if you shift the smart cover at the wrong angle, it gets very dirty so i suggest the leather one, by folding it up and letting it support your iPad comes with two angles, each of which is either too low or too steep, I suggest something that will protect your iPad more if you are a traveler, but for at home use its sleek and cute.
