Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have revised my rating from a Four Star rating because of durability issues.
After only a few weeks this case has started to fall apart after normal use (by normal use, I mean that I baby the iPad)! The glue that holds the microfiber cover onto the plastic shell started to come loose. At first it looked like little bubbles under the microfiber but now nearly the whole back cover is separated from the shell. This makes me worried that it will slip and cause me to drop the iPad. Suspecting that I may just have a defective product, I searched online and to my surprise there are others with this problem. Amazon doesn't allow links but it's easy to find the discussion boards I found.
I will once again revisit this review if I receive a replacement BOOKSTAND case that doesn't exhibit these same problems. Otherwise, check my reviews to see if I have found decent a folio case for my iPad.
This is the second problem I have had with Macally in purchasing this case. I originally ordered it from the Macally website because it was "In Stock" only to find out a week later that it wasn't in stock and my order was automatically canceled. It was frustrating at the time but it would have saved me a lot of trouble if I had moved on to another case!- Previous Four Star Review -
I originally purchased Apple's cover but was very dissatisfied with it. Unfortunately, there haven't been many other covers that replace the utilitarian functionality of that case. Then, I spotted the Bookstand case on Macally's website. The only problem was that it wasn't in production yet. Well, the wait is finally over and this case is wonderful. The typing angle is better and sharper than the Apple case. The best feature is that it doesn't cover up any of the screen like the other case does, and if you want to remove it, you can easily snap it out.
The few things I don't like:
1. The Color - it's very drab. A darker grey or black for the cover and anything but the hideously dim orange on the latch would be nice.
2. The Texture - better than the apple case but it still attracts dust and debris. I'd rather have something smoother. The glue that holds the fabric is inconsistent.
3. The Back Gap - There is a gap between the back of the iPad and the plastic of the case. This doesn't cause any problems but you can tell its there when you press on the case.
Despite a few flaws it's the case I'm sticking with for now.
