First, I have to tell you that I have looked at almost all iPad cases available in stores and online and have tried several of them since the iPad was released, but this case/stand is definitely the best of all – it looks very stylish and functions so well.

As a case, it provides excellent all-around protection. The material may not be top quality leather, but it feels soft and good in my hands or lap. As a landscape stand, it’s just fantastic. All of the four angle positions work great and are useful for different situations. At the lowest angle, it is perfect for typing. At the second and third angles, it’s great when you’re sitting. And the highest angle can be useful when you’re lying in bed or on a sofa. The designer(s) paid a lot of attention down to every little detail, so it makes me feel as if it were the creation of the same people who designed the awesome iPad.

In conclusion, I am extremely satisfied with it and highly recommend it to anyone!!!

Bought this Case after reading the reviews on here, and I have to say the Case is Great and really protects your I PAD!!! I was going down some concrete steps and and dropped My I pad in this Case. And all most had a heart attack as I watched My I PAD slide down the Steps and bounce around. But the I PAD was damage free and the case held up pretty well too!!! Great investment for a Six Hundred dollar I PAD I MUST SAY!!!!

And it makes your I pad Look very stylish!!!

This is an excellent case that I believe is better than Apple’s, for significantly less money. If you need an Apple logo then this isn’t for you; otherwise it’s great. We are a two iPad family (one received as a gift) and actually have both cases, so it is easy to compare. The iPad slides in easily and is held by a strong frame along one of the long edges and two corner “loops” along the other long edge. The fit is very tight and secure. Sliding the edge with the volume controls into the frame results in no loss of any button functionality (one reviewer mentioned that the volume buttons are partially blocked–that’s only if you put it in the other way). Our Apple case actually partially blocks the speaker, although my guess is that some do and some don’t given manufacturing tolerances, but regardless, the Acase fit is actually better in our experience.

What makes this case particularly good are three features: 1) the case is slightly cushioned. While it makes it slightly thicker than Apple’s (1/8th of an inch), in my opinion it also makes it more protective and reduces the “worry factor”. 2) it has four different “blocks” that you can rest the side containing the iPad in to create different landscape viewing angles. These are sturdy and offer more flexibility than Apple’s design. The lowest setting does not get as low as the Apple case’s “typing mode” but I find I rarely use that anyway. 3) it has a loop that snaps the halves closed. This seems trivial but if you are putting it in a carry-on or purse, it provides more protection against things getting between the flaps and damaging the screen. Apple’s just folds closed with nothing to secure it in that position.

Other reviews have cited that it isn’t real leather. Honestly it’s hard to tell but whatever it is made of, it is high quality and pleasant to hold. Apple’s isn’t leather either, rather it is a matte rubber type material. One disadvantage is that the edges are not as protected with this case vs. Apple’s (the Apple case is a frame on all 3 exposed sides) although my principal concern is the screen, and so this is minor in my opinion. Also, obviously the buttons, speaker, etc. are exposed with the Apple case and those are what is at risk along the edges anyway.

I gave my wife the choice between this one and Apple’s, and after trying both she went with this one. I would have as well. Overall this is an excellent case.

This looks like a well made case and it’s understated, unlike some of the things I’ve seen. It’s also one of the more reasonably priced cases, since everyone seems to think “ipad, let’s gouge anyone who has one”. The really best part of this case, though, isn’t the case or its features. It’s that you can look at the packaging which reads “Leather Case for iPad” across the top, followed by the line “Real leather-like”. It’s vinyl. It’s also “real vinyl-like”.

Advertised as leather on Amazon and in packaging. Case is NOT Leather — it’s petrol-smelling vinyl. It has cloth elastic bands to hold the ipad — does not protect the corners. When stored face-up, the flap snap is underneath, and prevents it from lying flat. It has raised bumper pads inside that rest against and rub against the screen. The notches for angling are only good for steep angles for viewing, not a low angle for typing. I am returning this item and will continue my search for a real leather case that will actually protect my investment.
