Redesigned To Be Worse?

Sam G. . 4 months ago

First the good news. This is a well made product that has lots of flexibility. It protects my iPad well. Now the bad. I’ve had two previous versions of this case on older iPads but this has been redesigned with a half inch overhang of cover on one long edge. This makes the iPad too wide to fit in my bag. The overhang serves no purpose I can see and holding in landscape arrangement, my thumb rests against the overhang and pushes the camera flap open all the time. It’s a nuisance. And I am concerned the fastener that holds the cover closed has empty space behind it now, making it much more likely to break off. The design previously was perfect, so this is two steps backward.

Too big for the 2025 ipad

Reviewer . 5 months ago

The case is too big for the ipad. If you look at the righthand side, there is empty space. This adds unecessarily bulk and this now takes up additional space in my purse. I prefer the previous designs where it fits just right. I wish I could return it.

A Repeat Purchase

dsfdubs . 6 months ago

Yes, I'd recommend this product.

I had a Speck cover on a previous iPad for ten years. It looks like the dickens now, but it held up. I was happy to see the company still in business. It's easier to hold the 'Pad with the cover on. I'd only dock the cover for being heavy, but that's the trade-off for the protection.

Cover is cool

Laurieann . 7 months ago

The cover is easy to use.

Overall good but functional details overlooked

Maya . 9 months ago

For the most part it works as needed but it seems like the company just didn’t pay attention to details in the design. The multiple notches on the bottom are pretty useless since the angle the iPad sits in doesn’t change dramatically. On that note, the bottom part is split into two plates which makes it very hard to put it up at an angle on the couch or other uneven surfaces. The part where the iPad fits into is also mounted crooked. There’s a loop that fits a stylus but it’s in an awkward location that makes it not very accessible from either the angled position or folded over position. I probably would’ve returned it but I threw away the original box and you need it for returns.
