    Not very sturdy

    • Written by from Ossipee

    I purchased this cover as I wanted something sleek and stylish and non bulky. Purchased in late May of 2012 (this year!). Have had to glue fabric to vinyl along the edges 3 times, and now the magnetic bar that holds the cover to the iPad itself has lost its pins so I can no longer use the cover. I am going to purchase some watch pins to try to fix it myself, but honestly, after only 3 months of use it should still be like new - not falling apart. I do not recommend this product for these reasons. I love the concept but the quality is horrid! Also, the self stand is very flimsy also. Would not leave it standing alone as it falls over unless holding on to it. Sad it isn't what I had hoped. Please don't waste your money.

    Not the best cover.

    I love the case. but first of all it does't fit the dock.. and it feels like the case is too big or kind of loose. It looks like the iPad is too small for the case. It ok though. but there are better cases out there...

    It's Really Nice Because Green Is My Favourite Color! And I Also Think The Choice Of Fabric Is A Good One Too!

    Not as good as I hoped it to be.

    This product does not fit the iPad snuggly, the holes are not cut well contrary to some reviews I read and seen.

    Because it has a soft hinge, the triangle support doesn't feel as sturdy as the regular smart cover. When folded back to hand hold like a note book, or note pad, it feels extremely uncomfortable since the cover moves around much more than the standard smart cover.

    I have the smart cover for the iPad 2. And now I ordered a different product all together to replace this lacking example of a iPad case.
    The edge of the case also feels cheap and causes it to be annoying to hold the iPad. I wish I can donate this case to someone who wants it, but I wouldn't do this to anyone, I'll just destroy it and throw it out so no one else has to suffer from this terrible case.

    What I do like about it is the soft lining in the case. 1 star for suede/felt like lining.

    Great coverage but a little frustrating

    I got this case in green and it looks great! It does seem to fit a little big on the new iPad as the edges seem to always pop out. One thing I cannot stand is how dirty the front cover gets and although it seems like you can just wipe it clean it does seem to stain. This is just from simple handling and not any dirty hands holding it. Because it does not seem to fit right I am looking into getting a different case, I thought that going straight to apple and paying top dollar I would get a top notch product but this is not the case.

    Works well, but...

    • Written by from Henderson

    The case looks good and works well. The Smart cover function is very nifty. However, I thought it would make the iPad easier to hold. This is not the case. There is a sharp seam that runs around the entire case. This digs into your hands when you're holding it. And while the smart case folds up and makes a great stand, it's just left flapping there when you're trying to hold it. I will probably use this only when I take the iPad out of the house. However, while it is easy to put on, it is difficult to take off.

    How can Apple produce such a horrible product. It does not fit on the new iPad. It's loose and feels really cheap. I returned it the next day. For the price, you are better off with a third party case.

    Disappointed

    • Written by from Laguna Beach

    Very disappointed with this cover. Bought the Smart cover for my prior iPad and bought a "back" cover from another company that works with the Smart Cover. When I bought my new iPad I was very excited to see you were making a new cover that would take care of the front and back. I was very disappointed when I received it. It is very hard to fit on and the edges are very rough. It's also very "clunky" looking making the iPad seem bigger than it is. I just went ahead and bought the "smart" front again and reordered the back from the other company I mentioned prior. Now I'm very happy again. PLEASE think about a different design. This new product doesn't represent Apple well at all.

    It's made badly-the ipad is not held snug; the does not work nearly as well as the smart cover. I just can't believe they released this as it is. It's a great design -- just a terrible execution.

    Bought this to protect the kids Ipad which takes some pretty rough treatment. The case is great, it fits snug, provides protection, wipes clean and the green looks great. I am buying another one for my Ipad.

    It is great

    This is my first IPad so also, my only experience with a cover and I think it is great. Fits snugly (actual, hard to remove it which I think is good). No issues with alignment.
    Do I wish it were less expensive? Of course. I also wish that gas, food, cars and everything else I buy cost less and that is not going to happen so, if you want it and have the money to pay $49, buy it.

    Does what it's meant to do

    I love Apple, but they are beginning to miss the details:

    1. not compatible with Apple's dock... really? I mean no one at Apple thought about this? $30 dock now useless, unless of course you want to take the cover off every time you dock...

    2. don't waste your time on engraving - so small it can't be read

    3. cover does not fold the same as the magnetic cover - isn't as useful

    Shabby product

    Looked at it in the Apple Store yesterday and immediately decided against it.
    Poor quality, not up to Apple's standards. Not sleek or sexy by any means. The only upside was it looked like it protected the product well. However you can find 3rd party cases that protect the product just as well (if not better) that look and feel much, much better. I was just hoping for an Apple case that would do the same. Looks like it was created by some uninspired Windows/Android user.
    Would Steve Jobs put this out there? I don't think so.
    I have never found an Apple product that I dislike as much as I dislike this one. I really really hope we see a better, elegant, precise, polished, sleek, impassioned new Smart Case in the future.
    Sir Jony Ive and his colleagues have some work to do.

    Protects iPad well

    polyurethane material makes it feel cheap

    Interior or case full microfiber is a plus

    great functionality

    worth $50.....? NO!

    Apple needs to reasonably price their accessories.
