Review on New IPad 2017 9 Tablet Accessories by Jason Paredes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good value for old iPad

Overall very happy with this purchase. Nice shade of blue. Protects my iPad well. Everything is perfectly geared to the use of the camera. And other buttons too. The wake/sleep function doesn't work for me. However, my previous cover did not. (different seller/manufacturer) That's why I deducted a star. It's possible I just don't know how to use it, having read other reviews describing how to position the lid to use this feature. In my opinion it should work automatically or come with instructions. However, the sleep/auto-off feature was not the reason for my purchase. I automatically turn off my iPad when I'm not using it. I bought this for extra drop, break, scratch and twist protection. As for holding, it works great on a stable surface (e.g. a table top). On a soft surface (e.g. a bed) no. This also applied to my other case, so definitely not a disadvantage for me. In terms of durability it looks as well built as my last one which I replaced mainly because it looked worn not because it was broken. My last one was with me for about 3 years. For the price of my favourite, but definitely an old iPad, this is a good purchase and investment. I recommend it. (I will update if my mind changes as I appreciate feedback on changes after using the purchase for a long period of time.)
