Review on JETech Case For IPad 2 3 4 (Old Model) Tablet Accessories by Tommy Rao

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very good value for money with one complaint

I was a bit nervous about this case. I have an iPad 3. My first experience with a third party case didn't go well because the iPad 3 is thicker than other iPads and didn't fit. When I saw that it should be compatible with other iPads I thought maybe I would have the same problem. Not in this case. It really fits my iPad 3. Just push down a bit on the corners and you'll hear a slight click and you're done. The lid magnets also activate/deactivate the screen on my iPad. The overall impression of the materials is good. The cover is thin, can be 1/16 inch thick. The cutouts are all perfectly matched. It doesn't add any weight to the iPad itself at all. The top part of the case is divided into 4 sections, each slightly different in width. In my opinion, many covers differ in design. Basically, in my opinion, there are two support positions: one for working (typing on the virtual keyboard, etc., where the tilt angle is small, maybe up to 30 degrees) and one for viewing (watching videos, FaceTime, etc..., where the support angle is higher can be about 60 degrees). Different covers give different angles. Figuring out how to use cover to reach these positions can be a puzzle at times. As far as I can tell, this lid allows for two different working positions and one viewing position. My only criticism of this cover is that the viewing position is too steep. He seems almost unstable. The angle I get is about 75 degrees, which for me means I have to kind of slouch in my chair to be useful in that position. Otherwise the overall value is very good. Working with an iPad 3 in an old case that is falling apart can make the whole process look new.

Pros
  • Easy access to all controls and features; Perfect cutouts for speakers, camera and other ports
Cons
  • unsure
