+ The envelope is first-class workmanship and a perfect fit to the iPad mini Retina LTE. + The leather looks very classy and feels very good. - However, the envelope is not very practical, because -> The leather is so sensitive that you actually need a protective cover for the protective cover ... you really have to be careful where you lay there ... -> You can pad thus not vertically up (portrait mode) -> There are only two possible set-up options (Landscape), both of which are not stable / tilt-proof, -> The handling is limited because the cover is not removable, but always dangling around, -> So you have to grope unfortunately also the inner surface of which is supposed to protect the screen when you want to keep the pad in hand and use ... so it takes naturally fast fat on ... => Therefore not very suitable for use outdoors and on the go (There are better solutions: So the BookBook is eg also made of leather, very robust and it does not have the disadvantages mentioned above and it is original, and also stylish ... but this is ultimately a matter of taste, I have both, and therefore the comparison in practice). Conclusion: (+) Very chic, very expensive, very well made, (-) Less robust and not very practical => Limited recommendation
