A Step Back

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Let me begin by saying I have bought many UAG iPhone and iPad protectors over the years starting shortly after the company began operations. They were the first to offer brilliant red cover colours, which sadly it no longer does. My latest UAG cover is the Metropolis SE (black) which is a step back in quality and appearance compared to the previous UAG offerings. The vinyl is thin and not textured and the UAG logo is a simple imprint (not chrome relief). I bought this as a temporary cover for the latest model iPad, so I can get something nicer from the many other companies/competitors that are now offering better covers. UAG is no longer my go-to.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not like previous version, which this was supposed to replace. First difficult to use touch ID; there is now a protrusion that obstructs finger. Second, closing tab is too short, causing issues securing case around pad. Third, back support was raised too much, so now support base is smaller and viewing angle is too steep.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very happy with my purchase! Love the quality of the case, and fits my iPad perfectly. Kinda wish the Apple Pencil holder was removable, but otherwise it’s awesome!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This case works great! It flips back out of the way when I want to sit and read. When I’m at the table you can prop it up at different angles and that works great too

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love my UA folio case. It’s easy to prop my iPad up and it stays up. Also when I close my case, it stays closed and doesn’t come flying open.

Adequate protection, no access to fingerprint scan on top button

James L. . 6 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The case itself seems to offer adequate protection but the large plastic molding in front of the main button prevents the use of fingerprint scanning to log in to the I pad.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] En general es una buena funda.
Sigue siendo muy valida esta marca por los materiales y la protección que ofrece. Sin embargo esta vez fallaron en el diseño; cubrieron el acceso al botón de encendido si utilizas el iPad de modo horizontal.
Como sabemos estos dispositivos tienen la versatilidad de utilizarlos sea vertical que horizontalmente, mientras que si esta en vertical el botón de encendido lo aprietas con la mano derecha y por lo tanto tienes buen alcance a éste, ya que dejaron su acceso libre por la parte trasera, pero si tienes el iPad en horizontal el botón lo aprietas con la mano izquierda y al querer acceder a éste la protección te cubre el acceso, haciendo bastante incómodo, inconveniente y frustrante en su uso diario.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Didn't feel comfortable with it, so we bought something else. It seemed weak and that it provided no protection.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I previously loved my UAG iPad case. But the surface of new version of the Metropolis (SE Series, 2024) is slick, with no texture for good gripping. I returned it.
