Would iPad Mini cases fit the iPad mini 2?

Probably sounds silly as they are virtually the same and no difference in size or dimensions were mentioned but I compared iPad models and the iPad Mini 2 is thicker by 0.3mm. Now this might sound miniscule but cases are made to fit perfectly and I'm afraid even 0.3mm would make a difference in using a case? Am I paying too much attention or should I get cases specifically said to be compatible with iPad Mini 2?

I think it depends. If you're looking for a tight fitting snap case then you may want to look for Mini 2 cases specific, or get it from a place with a good return policy. If it's a portfolio case or a silicone case you should be fine because they  have more wiggle room.
i've found that some retailers don't care if you 'try it on' in the store, you just have to ask for their help or be very careful when you open the packaging so that it is still resellable.
I have a Touch 5 and have found that iPhone 5 cases fit it, the bits of millimeters in difference doesn't pose a problem (Biggest issue I have is buttons being in different places, not case size)

  • Will an iPad 2 case fit the iPad Air?

    I want that case for the iPad Air, but it just dawned on me it might not fit. Will it, or do I need to find another case?

    iPad 2 is wider and thicker. A case for it will not fit properly with the iPad Air.

  • Will the ipad 3 case fit the ipad 4

    The iPad Smart Case works with the iPad 2 and newer, so it works with a 4th generation iPad properly

  • Will iPad 3 case fit an iPad 4

    I am giving an ipad 4 for Christmas. Will an ipad 3 case fit an ipad 4?

    Yes!  I use one.
    Note the dock connectors are different sizes, with the iPad 4 being smaller than the iPad 3.  So if your case has some special provision for the dock connector, that may be a factor.
    But the devices are the same size.

  • Do the iPad 2 Cases fit the Retina iPad?

    Would the snap on and silicone cases fit the Retina Display iPad

    Yours does - but a lot more (particularly hard cases) don't.
    To the OP: if you have a hard case, be extra caotious when applying  an iPad 2 hard case. You may end up having to use a knife to get the case off. If, after applying two corners, you see it won't fit, do NOT try to fit the third corner!

  • Would an ipad 2 case fit an ipad 3rd gen?

    I Have an ipad 3rd gen and I am having trouble finding a case for it. Would an ipad 2 case fit it, I found an expensive case which said it would fit an ipad 3rd gen, ipad 2 2nd gen and iPads with retina display. I'm a bit confused.
    thanks Susie

    Yes
    There's really no such thing as iPad 1 third gen
    I'ts iPad (what became iPad 1 once the 2 came out)
    iPad 2
    iPad 3 (which was only sold less than a year)
    iPad 4
    iPad Air (5th gen)
    iPad Air 2 (6th gen, although it's rarely referred to as such)
    iPad 1, 2 and 3 are pretty much the same. (except for the thickness which I think was to accommodate a different battery) iPad 4 is where the lightning connector came into play. iPad Air and Air 2 had some major size changes.
    Your case might fit, it all depends on what kind of case it is. If it's a close fitting silicone or hard case, then likely not. if it's a portfolio kind where you slide your iPad into a sleeve or space in a case then it might. Those are the most forgiving of cases and the extra couple of millimeters in thickness are usually able to slide by.
    Depending on where you found the case, if the place has a good return policy you can always give it a try and return it if it doesn't work well.

  • Will this iPad 3 case fit my ipad 2?

    Hello!
    I've been looking at iPad 2 cases and this one seems to be perfect for my uses. However, it is labeled as an iPad *3* case (or well, The New iPad), and I was wondering if it would still fit my 2. I understand the iPad 3 is deeper than the iPad 2, but I've had trouble finding all the specifications on this issue.
    The diminsions of the case are:
    0.6 x 9.5 x 7.4 inches
    The Amazon link is:
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B007FTEHF8/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=A3L4 U04EN6IJXX
    Any help would be spectacular, thank you, Internet.

    It will but its gonna be lose....right now i have a ipad 2 case on my ipad 3 and it fits but a little tight...but it still fits...:D......but yea it should fit

  • Can the ipad 2 case fit the new ipad?

    I just ordered the new IPad and was wondering if any IPad 2 case would support the new IPad?  I know the demensions are very minute, but does it make a huge difference?  Or do you think I should just wait for what comes out?
    Thanks

    I think some will. Portfolio cases that you just slide the iPad into should be okay. might be a bit tight but if there's elastic in the right place it could work. The form fitting snap on cases or silicone cases might be a different issue. that .03 could be too much for them.

  • Will the G4 top housing case fit the Intel minis?

    My friend has an intel mac and his case is just scratched up big time. Both on the top and sides. Looks really ugly. I found him a case from a G4 mini for dirt cheap and was wondering if it would fit his intel mini. I know the intel's have an infrared sensor and I told him that the G4 replacement case would cover it and that the remote might not work- but he's okay with that since he says he's never used the remote.
    So does anyone know any issues that would make it incompatible? The only thing I could see in pics on the internet is that it kind of looks like the cd-rom slot is slightly more to the left ( http://media.arstechnica.com/reviews/hardware/macmini.media/minifront.jpg ). Is this true? Because I think that would be a huge issue.
    Thanks in advance!

    The ports on the rear are in different places in the G4 and Intel Minis.
    For starters, the Intel has 4 USB ports and a microphone jack, while the G4 Mini has 2 USB and no microphone jack.
    I don't think this project is a good idea.

  • Will the iPad 3 cases fit the new iPad 4?

    Is the width, height, depth, size same????????? or is the size a little different?

    The physical dimensions are the same and all cases that work with the iPad '3' will also work with the iPad '4'.  The center of the Lightning port is in the same location as the 30-pin dock connector center so while the opening may be larger than necessary when a '4' is placed in a '3' case it will work fine.

    iPad 2 cases don't work with 4th generation or 3rd generation iPad
    The reason that some iPad 2 cases won't work with iPad '3/iPad '4' and some do is two-fold.  First, the iPad '3'/'4' is a bit thicker which may cause a tighter than optimum fit--depending upon the case style.  Stretchable cases won't be much of a problem, hard shell cases could be.
    The second reason is because the iPad 2 only has a position requirement for the magnets to engage the on/off function, it does not also have a polarity requirement for the magnets as does the iPad '3'/'4'.  If the polarity randomly happens to be a match it will work.  If not it won't.
    So to sum it up, if it is advertised to work with the iPad '3' or '4' it will work with the iPad 2 though the fit might be a little bit loose with some case styles.  If it was built expressly for the iPad 2 it may or may not function fully with the iPad '3'/'4'.

  • Will a iPad 3 cover fit the iPad with retnia display

    I want to know because they don't show the specs of the iPad 3 any more
    So I can't compare them

    Most will. What model case?

  • Will the mini iPad Logitech keyboard fit the new retinal display mini iPad?

    Will the new mini iPad fit the original mini iPad keyboard cover by Logitech.

    There's a fraction of a millimeter between them. So if the case is hard molded plastic, probably not. But if it's a more forgiving case, like  a leather slip in case or the such, you should be ok.
