Ipad mini 6
I just purchased an ipad mini 6 and it will not go to sleep when the cover is closed. Yes the lock/unlock is turned on and its set to auto shut down in 5 mins but just will not shut off when you close the lid.
iPad mini 6, iPadOS 15

If you have a generic third-party case, these sometimes have the magnet (sensed by the iPad when the cover is closed) in the wrong location relative to the screen; some cases don’t have a magnet at all.
As the sensor location varies between models of iPad, to use the screen locking feature, the case must be specifically designed for the iPad.
