    Nice expensive case

    • Written by from Doha

    It's made for the iPad by the guys who made the iPad. So the quality goes in par with the device. It perfectly fits the new iPad 4 and does not make the iPad look bulky.
    Though its expensive, it's worth the buy to compliment the iPad.

    iPad 4: Imperfect Fit, outstanding Material Quality & Viewing Angles.

    • Written by from WASHINGTON

    11 of 13 people found this useful

    Fits iPad 2 perfectly, iPad 4 a hair roomy. I tried a second case of the same make and it had more acceptable tolerance.

    The material quality is outstanding and the grip lets you achieve a CLEVER undocumented intermediate viewing angle with the front flap segments rolled in at less overlap (easier to demo this than explain).

    • Stand-Up Angle (for FaceTime) only works with soft inner face of flap rolled to the outside; otherwise it will fall over.
    • Lowest Angle: Do the opposite (since it won't fall over) and protect soft face from needlessly catching debris.
    • Intermediate Angle: Same. Touch Typing ergonomics at this angle are astonishingly clever; make bluetooth keyboard cases redundant, click stands look silly.

    The case's virtues & versatility are revealed over the course of usage. I like mine more everyday.

    Excellent Product

    I'm not sure wha is with some of these overly harsh reviews. These covers are a matter of preference. Belkin and some other 3rd party vendors make a more "professional" case with slots for business cards, leather binding, etc. I don't use the ipad for business, so to me anything overly professional makes me feel like I'm at work. The light grey cover looks fantastic encasing the white ipad. The look is clean, the use is functional and the design and overal bulk is minimal. Overall a very nice compliment to your new device.

    Best iPad case - bar none

    I got this case for our iPad4, after a long search; I am glad we did.

    The case fits the iPad perfectly; adds negligible bulk and weight; feels great and secure in your hands. At $US49, it is a great bargain over the Smart Cover ($US39). I even believe it offers excellent values compared to other non-Apple imitators out there.

    Some reviewers complained their iPads fell out of their case; I could not see how that happens since this case secures my iPad very well (no wiggle room). I speculate that those reviewers do not fit their iPad into their case properly.

    If you have any doubts, you need to ask yourself why you chose your iPad in the first place, then the answers should apply to why you will like this Smart Case: fit, function, and fun (actually, those are mine). This case is a perfect companion to my iPad.

    Worst case, you can always return it. However, I am sure you'll like it; I know I do.

    I struggled with finding the right case for my New iPad. Being that it is such an investment, I wanted to be sure it was protected. I also wanted something that fit properly, was good quality, and functioned well. I considered an Otter Box, but didn't want all the bulkiness. I also wanted something that would cover the screen when not in use. So, I bought the Smart Case despite some of the wishy-washy reviews. I have been using it for over a week now and I couldn't be happier. Obviously, as a product that was made by Apple for the iPad, it fits and works perfectly. The stand is quite sturdy, although I read reviews saying it wasn't. As long as you aren't punching your iPad, it will stay standing just fine. It protects well and stays closed when not in use. It really is the perfect iPad case!

    Best product for iPad protection

    • Written by from East elmhurst

    I had this cover the very first day it was released and I can tell you I have been extremely satisfied. I really don't understand the negative reviews about it not being durable or snug enough but I can tell you my 2 year old dropped it quite a few times and thank god nothing was damaged. The fit is snugg enough that it becomes almost difficult to remove. Why would you need to remove it anyway? I only wished it was available in different colors like black or orange.

    My new case fits My iPad 2 perfectly. I hope it fits as well on the new iPad.
    It feels very durable and protective. Way better than the smart cover.

    I don't understand what other reviewers are complaining about. The fit is snug and perfect on the iPad 3. What a shame this wasn't available when iP3 was launched. Up until now I've been using a smart cover with a back shell from another vendor. Now that was a lousy fit! Quit complaining about the price - the genuine article is never the cheapest.

    The iPad smart case fits my new iPad 3 quite well. Good attention to detail around 10-pin connector, volume control, slider switch, camera and headphone jack.

    The Apple Online store offers custom laser engraving and shipping at no additional cost. Definitely the way to go.

    Very satisfied with both iPad and the new case.

    Works Great

    • Written by from Durham

    I have been using this on my 3rd gen iPad for about a week, and I love it. doesn't absorb heat much, magnet is great, and doesn't add too much bulk.

    If I had to complain, which I'm not, it would be about the lip of the case. There is a slight lip around the iPad. So that means that if you get a bunch of dust or something on the screen, it is slightly difficult to brush off. You would have to take the iPad out of the case to clean.

    Overall a great case with a reasonable price.

    I just bought my iPad 3 and I love it. I bought the smart case because I liked how it offered protection for the back, it fits my new iPad very well and I could not be happier.

    Nice, but wobbly

    • Written by from Denver

    Welll, overal it's a nice case. It's pretty protective, unlike the Smart Cover. It has coverage on the back, unlike the cover. The typing stand is super handy, and I use it a lot. It's nice for the table, so I don't have to bend my neck over the screen because of glare. It's especially smart for the case to be able to fold in half. I also use that a ton to take pictures, on the go and at home. The stand feature would be nice, but it's wobbly. It's either tilting towards me, or tilting too much backwards. I was watching a movie today when it fell over onto the table. SMACK! I almost cursed. Twice. There were also some reviews I saw about the Smart Cover where finger oil/sweat was an issue, staining the polyurethane and making it ugly. That hasn't happened yet, but I haven't been gaming a lot. All in all, it's a great case. Very smart, very handy. I recommend it to many.

    Perfect!...but please make it in black!

    I loved my smart cover, but I was always afraid it would snap off as I was standing there holding it (it never did but the possibility is there right?!). The problem with a full case is that you lose the sleekness that the iPad is known for. This solves for both...it's one piece so the cover won't come off but it's still so thin (but pretty durable still) that it keeps the overall thickness down. It fits both my ipad 2 and 3...its ever so slightly loose fitting - not so loose that your ipad will fall out but just loose enough that you can changeout your ipad with ease (for those of you who are ipad case fickle like me) Love it! I have it in the dark gray...please make it in black!.....and purple!
