I really wanted a pocket with pen loop, which is why not many were available. This bag is pleasantly thin compared to other iPad bags, which I had previously and were now in my short list. I then decided to use this bag. The iPad sits well in its holder, which ranges compared to other bags even to the edge of the iPad, and not on the glass surface. All in all I am very satisfied. The magnet, which holds the tab of the bag is not the strongest and therefore the tab sometimes dissolves. But this happens rarely and does not bother really. The blue color is a little lighter than in the picture, but only minimally.
