Review on πŸ“± Fintie Slimshell Case for iPad Air 9.7" - Lightweight & Stylish Protective Cover with Auto Sleep/Wake Feature - Purple by Bill Pool

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not long enough for weekly use

I've had this case/slide for about 6 months and was surprised when one of the plastic corners fell off in my hand for no apparent reason. I rarely use my iPad Air (about once a week to play music or check email) and kept it away from kids, but somehow what little it had was too much for a case. A few weeks later, another corner element breaks, both on the "hinge" side. When I received the case I was delighted with the fit and the color (purple) but was concerned that the thickness of the materials had not been reduced. Delay. I think I was right. I should also note that while "standing" options are possible, they are difficult and very difficult to hold the iPad upright. The lid keeps slipping off and there really isn't a good way to latch it. So I guess I'm looking for something else, maybe a thicker and softer case that doesn't break as easily.

Pros
  • Easy to attach. Automatically wakes up or puts the device to sleep when you open and close the lid.
Cons
  • Not the best
