Some really solid design ideas; It would be nice to have better performance

I wanted a new case that offered a little more all round protection as well as more angles to allow the screen to tilt for whatever I want to use it for. This case offers a wide range of angles when the iPad is in landscape mode - the case's rubberized finish plus faux leather means you can set it at any angle, and the friction/weight distribution ensures the iPad stays in place remains space. The added ability to stand in portrait mode is nice (although I don't see myself using it that often. It's a nice option nonetheless). However, I have a few complaints about the product. It would be nice to include a few more magnetic locking options or to have a bit more flexibility in the ports in the lids as it feels like I have to wrestle the case a bit to get it into the corners. Want. The biggest design glitch I found in my model is the volume buttons. They're way too long - right out of the box, after I put my iPad in the case, the volume buttons were constantly being pressed by extension cords, and so the volume was always either up or down, whichever was last pressed. Luckily the part popped out, but what I actually had to do was take my sharpest kitchen knife and cut a piece of wood from two of the snaps so it wouldn't keep pushing the buttons.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Vulgarity
