For the transition, this "solution" is in order. Otherwise "variable" state function not I like the, because the iPad is not stable at the desired angle, because it lacks an anti-slip finish or grooves. If it's all about putting up and watching, it might work, to continue using the touch screen is not enough. With a larger rubber ring, the one spanning the footprint, you can also compensate for this shortcoming. Schick is rather not so and I look further for the perfect case with stand function in landscape mode.
For the price, the shell is very good for the thicker Mini it remains only a borderline compromise.
