    Ipad 9.7” (6th gen) which case is closest to the Apple Smart Cover

    As title really. My Apple Smart Cover for my 6th gen 9.7” is falling apart but I really like it. Apple don’t sell them any more so I wondered if anyone knew which brand made one that was pretty close? Don’t want to pay a lot, as it’s not worth a lot anymore but it’s still going strong! am UK...

    iPad Pro How floppy is the 10.5 Smart Keyboard when used in tablet mode?

    For me, the Smart Cover leather and silicone have been a bust. This model seems to flop right off of the back of the iPad when holding it compared to previous iterations. My question is how secure does the magnet of the 10.5 iPad Pro Smart Keyboard magnetize to the back if I’m holding it in...

    Disinfecting a Polyurethane Smart Case

    I have an iPad 4 in a gray Apple Polyurethane Smart Case and I would like to know the best and safest way to clean it and disinfect it without ruining the exterior material. It's not visibly dirty, just a little dusty and handled by others, which is why I would like to clean it and eliminate germs.

    iPad 2017 - Clicking in back chassis lower right corner

    I got the new iPad 2017 nearly a week ago. I've been using it with the Apple SmartCover. I've noticed when using the iPad with the cover flipped flat over the back in the bottom right corner if it slides slightly I can hear a clicking noise. I've looked this up and found that the original iPad...

    iPad Pro Review: 10.5" iBlason Clear Hybrid Cover Case

    This is a review of the 10.5" iBlason Clear Hybrid Cover Case, purchased on Amazon. Sorry about the quality of the photos. I just snapped them with my iPhone in my office during lunch, so the lighting was really awful. I was going to shoot these outside but it has been stormy all day. Since...

    iPad Pro Apple Leather Smart Cover colours! Photos please!

    Hello. I'm struggling to decide which colour to choose for a Smart Cover (oh the woes), whenever I decide to get one. Admittedly, having had the iPad Pro for a few weeks, I'm realising I haven't missed having a cover or stand for it at all BUT I did like opening the cover to read on iBooks with...

    Getting my first iPad, need help on cases/covers

    Hey there everybody! After 7 years of holding off on an iPad (I was one of the people in the beginning that called the iPad a more expensive iPod Touch) I am finally getting my own soon! I have placed an order for the 10.5" iPad Pro, 256GB WiFi + Cellular. Now I have a problem: What case/cover...

    iPad New iPad smart cover misalignment

    I just noticed, that there is a misalignment of about 2mm between my iPad 2017 and my new smart cover. The smart cover sits about 2 mm to high, so that it overlaps at the top. What do you think, is this due to production tolerances of the smart cover or or due to wrong placement of the magnets...

    Smart Cover for 9.7 Pro That's *Not* Made By Apple?

    I've been looking for a while to get a detachable smart cover for my iPad - I have the Smart Cover-compatible back already but have had a devil of a time finding a smart cover that's just the smart cover - I've tried the Apple ones and they're way too expensive for what you get. Do you have any...

    Magnet strength of the Smart Keyboard vs Smart Cover

    I own both the Smart Cover and Smart Keyboard for my 12.9" iPad Pro. I notice the side magnet attachment on the Smart Cover is much stronger that my Smart Keyboard is. Has anyone else who has both noticed this, or do I possibly have defective magnets on the Smart Keyboard? Thanks
