IPad Air 2 Smart Case Fake?

Hello all,
I have recently bought a Smart Case for my iPad Air 2 in BestBuy.
I didn't notice that the front face of the box said "iPad Air 2 Smart Case".
When I watched some review in YouTube, all of them do not have "2" printed, in fact, some of them point out that the cases for Air 2 has the writing not in bold as it for the original Air ones.
Has BestBuy given me a fake one? Or does Apple have different/new box model?
Thank you

No one here can possibly know, but I doubt you were swindled by Best Buy. If your not happy with the case, simply take it back.

  • Why does the iPad Air Smart Case not sit flush?

    I bought one today and was immediately disappointed.
    When the cover is closed the first 1/3 sections (closest to the hinge) is raised above the screen. When it's fully opened in 'reading' mode, the cover lumps up on the back of the iPad. This makes it uncomfortable to hold in the hand and it's strange this design decision was allowed to make it to a final product. Additionally, when in 'standing' mode for watching video, the folding stand has a tendency to fall on itself every now and then.
    Why wasn't it designed so it lies flush in both open and closed mode? I've been using a cheaper 3rd party case for the last 6 months that was better designed. The only difference is the quality of materials. However if I'm paying $100 for an Apple case I expect perfect design, function and quality. It fails in the design and function department. The leather feels nice to touch, but it doesn't compensate for its flaws.
    Reading through Apple forums and other review sites, it appears I'm not alone. I haven't made up my mind yet but I'm leaning towards a refund.

    The stiffness of the leather hinge is probably what is causing this. I'm assuming that it will get better as time goes on and the leather "breaks-in" from use and becomes more flexible. You can possibly help it along by periodically creasing the hinge manually where it bends, like you'd crease a sheet of paper. You are by all means entitled to a refund so that's your choice & option as well.

    What is the best lightweight iPad Air 2 case that features a swivel hand strap?

    I use the i-Blason Smart Cover with Hand Strap. It's the most full function case I have found. It has magnets for the smart cover function, a hand strap as well as a slot for business cards and such.

  • Does iPad Mini Smart Case easily get dirty?

    Hello :)
    I'm totally happy with my smart case, but one question is still interesting for me.
    Does the red iPad mini smart case (leather) easily get dirty? (For example: lay on a table, put in school bag etc.)
    Thx for your answers :)

    Depends how dirty the table or inside of yours school bag is.
    Only dirt that it comes into contact with can be transferred to the smart case. Dirt doesn't just occur.

  • Will ipad mini smart case discolor?

    I want to purchase ipad mini smart case but I'm worried if it would wore out and discolor like iphone leather case.
    Although it has nice looking, I don't want to spend money on a case that will not last long.
    Can anyone tell me their experience?

    It's a physical product that will endure wear depending on how you use it. No one but you can say how you will use or abuse the cover. In any case, I would rather have my cover wear than leave my iPad screen unprotected. That said, my iPad cover wore fine for over a year. Then normal signs of aging.

  • Best iPad Air 2 case ?

    I'Ve had my iPad for 2 weeks now and it's still naked. I've been looking for a case and obviously thr first one I thought of was Apple Smart case. However after watching the videos and reviews I feel like it makes the iPad bulkier than it should be. What I want is a keyboard case ( like Clamcase) or a case that provides different viewing anges so I can use Apple Keyboard with my iPad. Any recommendations will be appreciated:)

    You're right, they only say the Air
    http://www.zagg.com/shop-by-device/index.php
    You can call them and ask them if a case is coming for the Air 2. I've found their customer service to be really good.
    I've used one of the older folio cases on my iPad 2 for almost 3 years now and love it.

  • Does the iPad Air Smart Cover lose it's magnetism?

    Weirdest thing happened last week.  I have an iPad Air 32GB Cellular since about the first month they were released.  I have been using a Poetic thin shell cover on the back and an Apple Smart Cover on the front since I purchased the Air.
    Last week (around Wednesday) the magnets stopped working.  If I were to hold the iPad Air facing down, the Smart Cover would just dangle.  I even removed the back thin shell cover thinking it was interfering.  Same thing though, the cover just dangled.  It was this way for several days.  I even had to turn off the ability to sleep/wake the iPad using the cover because it would click on and off over and over again as I was carrying it. (Which to me would say the magnetism was not lost but became less, really weird.)
    Today (Sunday) it just started working again.  How is that possible?  I can't find anything on the net saying this happens.  How can the Smart Cover just lose it's magnetism and get it back after about 5 days?
    Thank you for any insight you can offer.

    Mine actually seems to have become repelant.  I thought I had a weird crease but thats not the case.  When I lay the cover on a flat surface it lays flat.  When I put it on my iPad it lifts slightly.

  • IPad air Smart Cover not aligning properly

    Is anyone else having issues?
    My nice new iPad air arrived on Tuesday, 3 days latter I received my apple Smart Cover! Why not send them together? That's another storey.
    After a days use, I notice that the cover is not aligning properly, then I read online that it could be an issues with the actual iPad not the cover, anyone else having these problems?
    Experienced outcomes?
    Regards
    Norm.

    You don't have this option?
    Open Settings->General->Lock/Unlock...make sure it is toggled on.
    Also, try restarting the iPad then check Settings again.
    When the iPad recognizes that the cover is installed that setting should appear and as I can recall, it defaults to that setting being ON.  Are you using an Apple Smart Cover or a third party cover.  If it's an Apple cover & that setting doesn't appear, take the cover back to the store & exchange it,  there may be a problem with the magnet placement in the cover.  If that doesn't fix the issue then you may have to make an appointment at a Genius Bar to have them run a diagnostic on your iPad.

  • TS2634 Is the iPad 3 smart case okay to use with the iPad 4?

    I just got the newest generation iPad (4th generation iPad) and I want to get the smart case so that it covers the whole iPad. I was reading reviews on amazon and also the title of product was "smart case for iPad 2 and iPad 3". Is that one okay to use for the iPad (4th generation)?

    I would assume it will work but the only thing to watch for would be that the Lightning connector would be acessible through the case's opening. Width-wise, the opening should be fine. It would depend more on the alignment front to back of the connector and the case's opening. Even if the Lightning connector is somehow blocked from access with the case, you could still use the cover (remove it to charge the iPad) since the physical dimensions of the 4th gen iPad are the same as the 3rd gen.

  • TS2634 Where can I find the Ipad mini smart cases?

  • Will Ipad air 1 cases fit ipad air 2?

    Since the ipad air 2 is slimmer than the 1, will any of the cases fit properly or do I have to wait for third party cases to be released (don't want to buy the official apple case)?

           iPad Air 2                         iPad Air 1
    Height:
    9.4 inches (240 mm)
    Width:
    6.6 inches (169.5 mm)
    Depth:
    0.24 inch (6.1 mm)
    Height:
    9.4 inches (240 mm)
    Width:
    6.6 inches (169.5 mm)
    Depth:
    0.29 inch (7.5 mm)
    As you can see the iPad Air 2 is thinner so id say its not going to work and you should just get a new case.

  • Just purchased griffin iPad air 2 case now its on sale

    I had purchased the griffin survivior slim case for my iPad air 2 for $79.99, and now its on sale for $69.99. is anyone able to give me the sale price please? my local store said they could do it, but i would have to bring the actual case in with the receipt, and th ecase has to be in the box, and it was too much of a pain just to put the case on, and keep the rubber gripping part on, and don't want to go through that mess again.
    i did not use my bestbuy credit card i used a visa, and I am not sure why my newest purchases are not showing in my reward zone account so I hope all i need is th ereceipt number.

    Hello again jerzeyzfynest,
    If the sale price is valid and you are within the return/exchange period (45 days for Elite Plus members), then you should be eligible for a price match.  You will need to go back to a Best Buy store location since the case you purchased for your iPad Air 2 was originally purchased in-store; however, you should only have to bring the receipt with you and not the physical case.  Let us know if you have any other questions.
    Best Buy Price Match Guarantee
    I hope that you have a great day, and thank you for posting to the forum!
