I am usually rather user BE.EZ products Headed to protect my products. I appreciated the lightness of this product. The small front pocket is handy to slip earphone cables and plugs for charging the iPad. My iPad, equipped with a rear protective shell and a smartcover fits perfectly into this protective cover. Compared to products be.ez I do not find the same level of protection, but one provided by AmazonBasics seems well enough and for a price that is unbeatable!
Without smartcover and protective shell I might be overlooked fears of protecting my iPad ... perhaps his only flaw: too light to reassure its level of protection.
