This case lives up to everything that is said about it. and then some. I bought this a year ago when I got my first iPad and literally wore it out. This new model has been greatly improved. It has 3 notches instead of 2 for a better angle and viewing angle, it has a small elastic band to hold a pen or pen, it's made from high quality materials and comes in so many colors it's hard to choose meeting. I bought RED; However, it's not a dark red - it's more of a rosy red or rose-pink, which I absolutely love. Monitor colors vary, but the red on my monitor matches the color of the case.
