I especially like the ZaggFolio, who else here thinks it is everything your iPad needs? 😀


Are you serious? It's way too much and not in keeping with the iPad's slim design. In addition, while it may be fine for some folks, but it essentially turns the iPad into a laptop. If I wanted to schlep a laptop, I'd take my Macbook Air.

So my first post on here raved about the Brookstone Ipad case and while it never failed as far as functionality, over time I noticed that the constant flipping the cover caused the material to sag where it was being bent and I am so anal so that bothered me. Saying all that to say, I happened to be walking around in the mall and saw the ZaggFolio and I really like it, so much so I bought it. There are a few minor complaints like the fact that I have to take the keyboard out of the case to charge it, that seems very time consuming if I want to charge it every night. The cord is extremely short, I can only use it with my laptop or I have to put it on the floor to charge overnight. The last complaint is that when you try to close it together, it doesn't line up exactly how it should so you have to make a conscious effort to close it. But the positives far outweigh the negatives. I like how the ipad sits in the groove nicely and does not fall out like my brookstone case did. It snaps close so you are sure that it is close and if you drop it, there is no visible damage to the ipad. I like how the case covers the front and the back. The other Zagg case (logitech) does not cover the back at all so this is better to protect your expensive investment inside. Also, if you happen to peek inside, you see that the keyboard does not touch your ipad screen. With my other case the keys touched the ipad screen. The last positive is that you can remove the keyboard should you choose to. You can use the Ipad with or without the case and turn the ipad vertically or horizontally. Overall, I think it's a good product and the price is what I expected to pay for a case that includes a bluetooth keyboard ($99).

I have the iPad 2 version of the Bear Motion case and it is great. I have been using it for 7 months now and it has held up amazingly well. No cracks or splits in the leather at all.


I looked at the cases with the built in keyboards and never found one that I liked enough to justify the extra weight. So I went with a nice leather case that folds into a good stand for the times when I just need to do a little bit of typing and then bought the Logitech Bluetooth Keyboard for iPad for those times when I really need to pound the keyboard.

Many and many said those are the best , but really I tried so many cases , but none of them give me the sense , the feeling , the touch and the look , that a Vaja case gives . Everybody looks at my new iPad and said , hey where did you get that case. And everybody has the same case , plastic , no feelling , no sense , no nothing.

I give my technology another way to feel , so I add real good case . it is not a simple electronic device id my device .

try them . I am fan .

Do not buy the Lifeproof case. Mine was defective, and when that is the case, the company has you mail back the defective case AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE before they will send you a replacement... and then lose your original case in their inventory. And so, here I sit, out hundreds of dollars, with an unprotected iPad that is getting scratched and dented, because of their poor product quality and customer service. Best to learn from my mistake and go elsewhere. These guys are obviously unprofessional.
