The set-up function covers the two main applications: watch the video and upright at 45 degrees for reading and typing. The criticism to the upright position, I can not understand. If you follow the video tutorial, the iPad Mini is like a one!
Furthermore, if the cognac color to white iPad Mini fits, then everyone must decide for themselves. For me, it is OK. White leather might still be an alternative ...
The service of KAVAJ is great. The show the many comments by the manufacturer under the reviews but also the quick response to my e-mail, even at Christmas time.
My only for myself but resolute criticism of the envelope, the apparently weak magnets in the cover. You can not do it easily, the cover to close so that he holds during transport. In the empty shell of the cover locks shut and you even have to spend a bit of force to open it. Once the iPad but is in the envelope, the lid is open 1-2 millimeters. Even with smaller touches the sleep function is deactivated and the iPad turns on. If I had to cover previously bent to state function, it is when you close with me even up to 2 centimeters wide. Only strong pressure and coping Pulling, closes it again, except for the aforementioned 1-2 millimeters. Correct annoying it is if I transport the envelope in my pocket. Through the movements, the iPad mini switches to constantly on and off. A behavior that the battery life is rather counterproductive.
My criticism relates both to my first appointment, as well as the replacement. Thus I see confirmed my guess is that a constructive deficiency must be. Stronger magnets could perhaps fix the problem and make the cover is the ideal companion. An alternative could also be a tab, such as the London model, be - even if that would affect the design.
I use the shell at the moment only at home and use on the go, perforce, another product ...
Addendum of 07/09/2013:
After more than six months in use, I regret to inform you that the problem with the weak magnet deteriorated rather than improved. None of my two bags has widened the extent that the lid can be safely closed. I have a small, additional magnets mounted in my distress on one side of the shell to keep the lid closed. Unfortunately, this measure does not bring the desired result, because the other side is still very easy to open by itself and thus turns on the unit. Two additional magnets I could not use, because the polarization of my magnet does not trigger the sleep function. I have some photos set showing my problem. These photos I had also sent KAVAJ in December 2012.
I will now probably still permanently resort to a visually similar shell of a market monitoring manufacturer. For this reason, I have to pull another star. :-(
