    Good Protector Bad Stand

    • Written by from Newtown Square

    0 of 1 people found this useful

    I feel like this case protects my ipad well. I can throw it in my bag or luggage without worrying about it getting damaged. HOWEVER IT IS A TERRIBLE STAND. I always have to lean it up against something in order for it to stay.

    Case is slim and light but it always tips back when in the upright position, fine if you keep it on the lower position for keyboard typing! I don't think this is sturdy enough for your iPad to survive dropping on a hard surface with this case, so I don't recommend traveling with this one.

    Great Case

    I have been using the Smart Cover for the past year. I recently upgraded to the Smart Case in dark gray and it was well worth it. It fits great and everything like the power swithch, charging cord, etc. works just as it should. Now I just wish Apple would carry one for my wife's iPad Mini.

    Not so great design

    • Written by from Abule-Elba

    Up's
    -Very beautiful and attractive colours.
    -Great texture and feel.
    Down's
    Not flexible
    -The stand position is too upright, not stable and topples on slight touches, manageable for movies though.
    -Typing position is too flat except you are properly seated. Not great when lying on the sofa or in bed.
    -Cover is extremely thin and thereby difficult to quickly open.
    -Material gets dirty easily.

    Wondering why I bought it?
    Two things!
    -I wanted the Apple brand and it's from Apple with the attractive bitten Apple logo
    -It's more attractive than the other brands I saw but less flexible

    I believe Apple can improve this design! There are many brands making more flexible, smarter and adaptive cases.

    I love the this case, the cover and how folds is great. But I wish it covered the glass more on front.

    Not a perfect fit. Device kept sliding around in it. And sometimes it pushed my USB out.
    It doesn't seem like an issue at first, but the longer you have the ipad in your hand the more frustrated you end up. I returned it.

    Just an official Case from Apple

    It's right to choose it, if you want to have apple brand on your ipad.
    My first impression on this case is: it increase the whole weight of your ipad and not very comfortable to hold. On the order hand, it does protect your ipad back side pretty well, as well as the front. However, the magnet on the front is tweak and It's easy to flip when you whole the ipad up side down. If I were given another chance I would go for smart cover or another product which can give me more comfortable handling and economical price.

    Hinge side pulls away from iPad.

    • Written by from Glenview

    33 of 37 people found this useful

    Looks good and protects edges and all four corners from damage.
    However, when the cover is folded back, the hinged edge pulls away from
    the edge of the iPad. I doubt that it will pop out, but it is annoying. The edges of the case are too sharp for me to hold it comfortably for a long time, such as while reading an ebook. I have tried scooting it around and reinstalling it, but to no avail. I wish I had bought the regular cover. This is a disappointment.

    Smart Case is Awesome

    • Written by from Tallahassee

    I was a little nervous at first with this purchase but I have been very pleased so far. It covers the entire iPad andI love it because it fits snuggly.
    I may still purchase a sleeve to tuck it in when I don't carry it in my book bag. Over all very very please and would recommend it to anyone.
    _Please don't confuse this for the smart cover. I purchased the 'smart case'

    Smart case coming off the device

    • Written by from Gales Ferry

    I have a smart case mini and it is constantly falling off the device if I use the stand to hold it.
    The magnet is not strong enough. I like the slimness and being light of the smart case but it would better if the case covered the whole device to insure its ability to stay on.

    Badly designed case

    • Written by from Lancaster

    61 of 82 people found this useful

    I've had the case for almost three months. The hinge is already worn out and now the cover closes sloppily and doesn't always shut the iPad off. The case also has relatively sharp edges, make it a pain (literally) to hold the iPad for an extended period of time. Because of the worn hinge, the iPad doesn't stand on the folded cover any more and constantly tips over. I'm really disappointed in the case. It was a waste of money.

    Did not hold up under even light usage.

    • Written by from Kane

    I have had this case about three weeks, and have noticed a small crack in the outside layer near the hinge. This appears to be a defect in the case. It is in a place that would not be exposed when the case is open and the iPad is in use. When I am not using the iPad, it has been just lying on a table. I have never taken it out of the house, so there is no possibility of damage from being carried in a purse or backpack.

    I don't live near a retail Apple Store, and the case is listed as not eligible for return when I checked my account at the online Apple Store.

    Smart Cover poor fit & bad stand

    • Written by from EL PASO

    I am not happy with my Smart Cover. It does not fit snug enough. There is slack on back and on sides. Also it does not stand well. It falls over very easily. The only reason I don't return it is because I had it engraved. I bought a $10.00 case off of eBay that stands better but the cutout for the camera isn't right. Not satisfied with my purchase. Very surprised that apple does not make a better product

    Almost perfect!

    • Written by from Dubuque

    I have the iPad with retina display, and it fits just perfect in this case. I was worried after reading some of the reviews on here about how the case was too big for the new iPad, and it always felt like it was going to fall off, but I didn't have any of these issues. It fits just fine, and it's actually difficult to get out. The only complaint I have about this case is that the folded cover isn't sturdy enough to keep the iPad straight up like it shows in the picture, which is a disappointment if you want to watch a movie and don't want to hold the iPad. Other than that, I love this case!
