Hi! I like to review based on what I would've wanted to know before hand so here we go:
Overall real good case!
- The actual protection is a hard transparent plastic and had a tight -snap- onto the iPad. The cover is like leather on the outside (smooth) and velvet(?) in the inside (little fuzzy).
- I like how there's an actual cavity where the apple pencil can fit in (while attached to the ipad). Other models would just have a gap in the case.
-Durability wise, I think it could sustain a fall or two. A phone case I have has a similar material and the phone did just fine after a couple of accidents.
-The case is really clear after peeling the wrap. I saw no fingerprints or smudges after messing with it while putting the case on.
- Since it's a hard plastic all around, the buttons for the volume are difficult to press. They do get stuck sometimes and that'll make using the buttons a challenge. The touch id/ power button is not covered, so no issues there.
-The cover can work as a stand to prop the ipad up in landscape.
- The cover does magnetically snap on. It does have the wake/close feature.
