Quality slim "smart case" for iPad 4/retina iPad

Hi all!
I just bought myself beautiful black iPad 4 but the store didn´t have any good case/cover for it. I have browsed the web but I´m yet to find a cover which has the look and functionality I´m looking for. These are the criterias I´m looking for:
1. Light. I want to be able to hold the iPad comfortably in the air.
2. Slim. I don´t want any excessive bulk.
3. Protecting front and back. Mainly from cratches. I can´t expect it to hold up against a 5 foot drop considering I want a light case.
4. I want some nice quality but not over 100 $. It can be leather or other materials as well.
5. I want it to NOT cover the glass of the iPad like so many leathercases do.
6. The case must double as a stand in both typing stance/mode and viewing stance/mode. Preferrably more then one angle in viewing mode.
7. The sleep/wake function must work well for iPad 4. I have read so many reviews where the sleep/wake activates way to often by "mistake" when carrying around the iPad or in a bag.
Part of the problem finding a case is that the iPad 4 hasn´t been around for that long I guess. Design wise I really like the Jisoncase real leather smart cover:

But I´ve read from someone that the flip gets "worn in" so the sleep/wake function activates all the time, draining the battery. But design wise it´s a true winner!

  • Tips on using Smart Case for Ipad?

    I'm on my second Smart Case because the first one feels like its just been worn out...which would be fine if I've had it longer then 3 months. The case itself use to feel secure and tight around the New ipad where now its really lose. The flap no longer holds with the mangents either, if I filp the iPad over the top part of the cover just opens. I've only taken the iPad out twice following the same instruction on the side of the original package. I use my iPad almost every day for for freelancing and work, are these cases just not meant to withstand that type of abusive?

    I did notice that my iPad will not stand as easily as my old one did. But then I rarely prop mine up so it's not a problem. There may be other covers that work better for what you want to do.

  • Why only leather Smart Cases for iPad Air 2?

    Why do Apple only sell the more expensive leather Smart Cases than the cheaper plastic Smart Cases? The price for leather case can be a little to expensive. Do anyone know why they only sell the leather ones? And is the leather case worth to buy even with the high price?

    I was also surprised by this. I'm not a fan of leather but I orderd the new Smart Case. I love having the Smart Cover and definitely needed something on the back to make my iPad less likely to slither off smooth surfaces.
    I love the new Smart Case. The fit and finish is superb and it provides some nice edge and corner protection. Great Midnight Blue color also. It's well worth the money for me.

  • I'm confused about buying used smart cases for iPad mini 1, 2, and 3.

    I'm trying to buy used smart covers for the iPad mini 1, 2, and 3 but I'm not sure which smart cover versions will fit which mini.
    So far, in pink, I've been able to find MGNN2ZM/A and MF061ZM/A. But I want all the other colors too.
    MacMall.com says MGNN2ZM/A is compatible with iPad mini 1, 2, and 3 and MF061ZM/A is compatible with iPad mini 1 and 2. (Apple doesn't provide the part numbers on their web page)
    Basically, I could really use a list of iPad mini, iPad and iPad Air accessories' parts numbers,  and the device/cover compatibilities, if such a list exists.
    Eventually, I want to buy smart covers in every color for iPad 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 (Air), and 6 (Air 2).
    Thank you for your help in advance ^^

  • Best case for ipad 2

    I am looking for something to cover the front and the back? Is otterbox the best? Is there a case that fits the smart covers?

    it depends what you are looking for. Either very robust in which case otter box could be a good choice, but if you want a case to prevent scratchs from the back while the smart cover covers the front you could get something like

  • Will the protective skins and Apple case for ipad interfere the reception?

    Will the protective skins for the ipad (especially on the back) and apple case for ipad, interfere the reception performance on both WIFI and 3G?
    Thanks

    I have a case (apple) but no skin and I have had no problem with wifi connectivity when using it. Can't speak to 3G as my iPad is wifi only.
    Hope this helps!

  • Is there a case for iPad that will allow the leather cover to stay on for uk

    I bought the iPad Retina display 16gb for a neighbour and added a leather cover  for it. I had already bought her husband an iPad in November and bought the Smart case polyurethane. I mistakenly thought the leather cover was just the same as a case, but of course it's only the front that is protected.
    Does anybody know of a good UK case/wallet type case that she can use with the cover attached, so that when's shes travellimng the whole unit is protected.
    It must of course be thick enough to accommodate the iPad and leather front cover.
    Can anyone help pleae?

    Help. Same issue.

  • Best case for ipad mini and Logitech wireless keyboard that opens like a book?

    What is a good case that holds both of these that opens like a book? In other words it is not a sleeve, it poems with ipad mini on one side and my Bluetooth keyboard on the other????

    There's likely no "best case" for any device. What works great for some will be detested by others. I can only tell you what I personally use and how it works. My own personal iPads (my wife and my 8 year old son have their own iPads with differing case needs) are pretty much relegated to indoor use. My mini 2 uses the standard-issue Apple Smart Cover. The back is protected (mainly from scratching & dings) by a clear plastic (polycarbonate) shell (purchased at Best Buy, Rocketfish brand) that is Smart Cover compatible (has the proper cutout for the Smart Cover hinge to contact the device properly). This combination works very well for me personally because there are many times when I do not want the Smart Cover on the device, flopping around & in my way...it's easily pulled off of the device when I need it off while the back shell stays on. You can't do that with the Smart Case. This works well enough for me on the mini 2 so I'm adopting the same for my Air 2.

  • Best case for iPad mini 3

    I bought the Logitech Hinge case at Apple but I think it is adding too much
    weight.  Is there a cover that protects the iPad but is lighter in weight?

  • Leather Smart Cover for iPad Mini?

    I hope Apple creates a leather version of the Smart Cover for the iPad MIni.
    The polyurethane version - while effective - feels rather cheap and flimsy.
    Surely, it would be quite easy for Apple to design a leather version.
    Perhaps they are waiting to release it with the Retina version of the iPad mini.
    Fingers crossed.

    Apple has not announced such a cover that I've seen, and until they do, none of us will know more than you do. You can express your desire for such a cover here, if you wish:
