Review on ๐Ÿ“ฑ Fintie iPad Air 2 Case - [SlimShell] Lightweight Stand Smart Cover, Auto Sleep/Wake, 9.7-inch, Blue by Ross Sugden

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is a good deal and I expect it to be more durable than the very similar Crown Omni Case

I'm comparing it to the only other case I've bought for my iPad Air 2 (Crown Omni Case ). but in the last 5 years I have bought 4 of them; Case Crown Omni with which I am very satisfied. (They look very similar and that's the first thing I noticed.) I didn't mind having to buy a new case crown (due to breakage) every year or so. A small price for this quality. It did a good job of protecting the iPad from monthly drops of 2-3 feet. But the corners inevitably broke every year. I figured it would be $20-$30 a year to protect a $600 iPad (the price dropped every year). The Case Crown Omni was the only thing I wanted as it was very thin, very light and cheap. I bought this one because it was even cheaper, although I expect it to be a bit more durable. There are areas where everyone does well. The Case Crown Omni was slightly thinner and lighter, but more expensive. As said, this one seems more durable, but we'll see. That means I've paid less for something (Fintie) that "feels" more durable, which makes me feel economical. The Case Crown has come down in price so if I buy it again it should be more durable (last over a year). Both are good. I am happy with both purchases. Bye. Not only is the Case Crown thinner and lighter, but it also has four folding panels instead of three like this one. That means this one has a wider and stronger base, but the case crown was a little easier to hold when I stuck my index finger in the crease notch. But this one is comparable in price and strength or durability (I think) to the Case Crown due to its slimmer, lighter size. I will update this review next year or if it breaks too early or too soon.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Quality
