    Don't listen to the people who are careless...

    • Written by from Chester

    This is the absolute best case for iPad. That 1 star review? Well they are just careless, romping around throwing an iPad around. This is absolutely worth every penny for the looks, and function. The leather ones have a smooth, gorgeous texture, and beautiful colors. It cleans and protects the screen with ease.

    BEST CASE IS NO CASE

    • Written by from Portland

    I bought the tan color and used leather conditioner on it and boy, what a beautiful rich brown was revealed! The smart cover works perfectly as advertised. I have both the leather and the green plastic and by all means get the leather; it is top quality and the pores just drink in any conditioner giving your iPad a million dollar look.

    Get rid of those ugly, pretentious folio cases with their cheap leather and embrace quality and class with a leather smart cover!

    Very Nice Cover

    • Written by from Richmond Hill

    I have had my natural tan leather cover for about 6 months. I have tried a couple other cases but keep coming back to my smart cover. It is made to compliment the sleek look of the iPad and the natural tan leather is wearing as a baseball glove would. If you are concerned with your cover looking brand new out of the box...I would recommend a different colour. However, if you like the natural patina of a tan leather this is the one! The leather has a great touch and feel that you just don't get from a synthetic cover. The Belkin clear snap cover is a great way to protect the back and preserve the look of the aluminum.

    I think it is crazy when you see iPhones and iPads covered in bulky cases...really...do pretty things need to be in bubble wrap? For anyone is addicted to Apple as I am...the new model will be released way before the current one looks worn!

    Works great

    • Written by from Silver Spring

    Works very well for its intended use - to cover the front, and to wake up/sleep when opening and closing. I bought a cheap ($6) neoprene sleeve to put the whole thing in when I travel for more complete protection, but mostly I just use my iPad at home so the magnetic cover doesn't need to protect the back. My cover is red - no fingerprints etc yet. I love that it wakes up or sleeps instantaneously.

    Exactly what I'd hoped for

    • Written by from Lewisville

    I have the tan leather Smart Cover on my iPad with retina display (4th generation).
    It feels great to the touch. Makes my iPad a pleasure to pick up.
    It gives a personal touch to a glass & metal mechanical device, due to the uniquely individual way in which leather ages and wears.
    The more it wears, the more I appreciate it ... like a well-used leather jacket that your Dad left to you.
    As others have said here, if you want your smart cover to remain flawless, unmarked, sanitized-looking, then get the man-made material version and get it in a darker color. You will spend less money for it and it will suit your style better. But if you're the type of person who can appreciate and value a well-used antique, leather-bound book, then this is the Smart Cover for you.

    It's a "Smart" Cover

    • Written by from Atlantic City

    I bought a polyurethane Smart Cover for my iPad 2, and it works with my new iPad as well. One of the many reasons I like the SC so much is because it doesn't add any extra weight to the iPad. Other covers, or cases, are very bulky, adding extra weight and making it uncomfortable to use. There are some third party covers and cases that are light as well, but they don't work as well as the SC does. For example, some of the benefit of having the SC: it puts your iPad to sleep, this is a good thing to have, the versatile stand option, and the screen cleaner as well. Three features in one.

    Best iPad Cover

    • Written by from Albuquerque

    This is definitely the best iPad cover, but don't get that confused with case. The only legitimate complaint about this product is that it doesn't protect the back of the iPad, however this is not the purpose. Its purpose is to cover the front and act as a stand, and it performs perfectly at doing so. The magnets are more powerful than any copycat cover, it is extremely easy to use and definitely maintains the beauty, simplicity, durability, and thinness of the iPad better than any other case.

    Love how it feels!

    • Written by from Ottawa

    I love my leather smart cover combined with a non-Apple clear plastic cover for the back because it keeps the smart cover magnets from moving or dislocating. The leather feels very nice and stylish and goes well with my tan messenger bag.

    I didn't like the blue smart case I initially bought, although it offers more protection, it takes away from the design and makes it bulky.

    Beautiful Patina of Tan Leather Smart Cover

    • Written by from Bellevue

    I have had this smart cover since April 2011. When I first purchased it, like many reviewers, I wasn't happy with others commenting it looked like cardboard.

    In the year and half since then, the leather has aged beautifully. The patina of the leather is beautiful. It has that vintage, "used well and often" look. I wouldn't trade it for a different color. I have had people offer to buy it from me simply for the look of the patina. NFS ... it took time to get it looking this good :)

    The magnets work just fine with my translucent soft back cover.

    If you are picky about keeping things looking brand new, then this is not the cover for you.

    If you like the feel and texture of items with a history and personality, then YES this is a great cover for you.

    Pink smart cover

    • Written by from brooklyn

    Just bought my pink smart Cover here at the apple store and I'm loving it. The only thing that bugged me a little is that the back wasn't really protected from scratches n etc. So I just bought a snap on hello kitty back case for my iPad 3 off of eBay.

    Great cover

    • Written by from Madison

    Awesome cover! Looks, feels and performs great, as it also should considering the price. I would buy it again.

    Whoever wrote that the magnets does not stay connected obviously put the cover on upside down... in which case they do not stay very well connected ;)
