The perfect case on the go!

So far I have always used the Smart Cover with Cool Bananas Hard Plastic Back Case to protect the iPad while traveling or going to work against ugly scrapes and scratches. At home I use but no case, which the iPad is lighter and handier (perfect for reading / surfing in the living room) can come into its own as well as the beautiful shape.
Now the removal of the Cool Bananas Cases was always a cramp (in addition to the problem that this case, in time, discolored) - it is so hard that you almost do not shut goes into the iPad and often times at the keys and corners strongly arrives / presses.

With the purchase of a new iPad I have now resorted to SmartCase. My initial doubts were completely dispelled with the first application to the iPad: The Case is soft enough that you can the iPad easily can enter "klippsen", but also so hard that it does not fall out and the noble tablet protects against all scratches ,
Especially the easy application and removal was important to me, because I do it all but 1, 2 days, and thereby the iPad does not want to damage.

In order to respond to the criticism of other reviewers:

- "Smart Case sits much too loose / iPad is easy out"
I can understand in any way. Have the case with iPad 2 and 4 tested and it fits like a glove with two, as you can shake and pressures, the iPad can not slip out.

- "Too big"
Of course, the dimensions, the iPads in the Case are slightly larger, about 1 to 1.5 cm in length and width. (Watch movies or read news on the train) when handling the falls not on, however, and the iPad is always protected. At home, I use since Case not, but I can imagine that there is too much / can / be difficult large reading in the living room a bit.

- "Case is too sharp"
I now have 2 Smart Cases home, both have exactly the same edge, which I however not absolutely feel as sharp. Of course there are hard edges, so that the iPad is somewhat protected from bumps and also sits really fixed it. But a disadvantage by I can not determine.

- "Miles from away price"
Even I can not understand completely. 50 are not short of money, but you get very good quality for this price: The cut-outs for camera, dock connector (unfortunately there is no Lightning variant of Cases), jack, speakers fit perfectly, the volume and standby buttons are even covered shapely and the material is beautiful and durable.
Even in comparison with other cases and case combinations the price is right: If one looks here on Amazon for "iPad Case" one finds very few under 50; most of them do not come in terms of quality approach the SmartCase or cover only one side of iPads reliably. Therefore, the price is justified MMN. Given the previous Smart Cover prices I would have expected in such a case from Apple rather with 70.

Conclusion: I am completely satisfied and the search for the perfect iPad case is finally over. It fits like a glove, has an Apple-typical beautiful, minimalist design and protects the noble Tablet reliably against all everyday damage. For me, the perfect case for the move.
