Best iPad 3 Case

I just looked at the Poetic, looks like a good choice and the cheapest, by far. On sale here.

i got this http://www.grovemade.com/product/ipad-sleeve/ipad-sleeve/. it's a sleeve not a case

@bourgogne_rouge

I would agree with you, there are too many choices.

Since I am using the XDoria one, I would definitely recommend it. However compared to some of the other options narrowed down by you, I can see that MiniSuit and Poetic are priced lower. So if you have a low budget then these 2 are perfect, otherwise go for the XDoria case.

cortiza cork looks crude to me though it seems sturdy and good for protection.

Boils down to what you want the case to do and how much you are willing to splurge.

Just my two cents.

Was interested in the Minisuit and went to their website, saw it retailing for $38.95, so the amazon link for Minisuit for $19.99 was auction based? I'm confused.

Hi Joe,

I too like the XDoria but find it a bit short on reviews. What was it that made you go for it? What do you particularly like or dislike about it. Did you get the white and do you think it will stain? Thanks.

Hi @bourgogne_rouge,

Well first of all I am a fan of sleek and good design (aren't we all Apple die-hards?) and price was not much of an issue. The XDoria one won hands down in that department though I was also tempted by a few others. Actually I bought a black for myself and a white one for a gift. I definitely think the white one is more attractive but was worried it may stain so I opted for the black one.

What I didn't like was on the white case front side there are very pretty hole like patterns but the patterns could have been more polished and also maybe dust/dirt could accumulate in future. The patterns are there on the black case as well but it stands out more in the white one.

True, it is short on reviews. But having got it, I can say it is great.

Hi Joe,

Thanks for the info. I agree that the XDoria is certainly one of the sleekest, thinnest and impressive of the cases out there and I agree that price here is not the critical factor when you are only talking about $30 or so. I find it very helpful that you are so pleased and I think I will probably go with it after looking around a little more.

This looks very similar to the iPad 1 case.

And it's cheap (hopefully price, and not quality).

This one does look a lot like the original case. I cannot determine the textural quality of the surface. Has anyone tried this one?

I feel like this case is pretty close as well.

How about the trident kraken II? They are priced reasonably as well..

I noticed a lot of people liked these with the iPad 2, they would be decent with the 3 i'd imagine http://amzn.to/HJeme3

How do you think it would compare to my Invellop

Check out the reviews on Amazon. There seem to be some troubling problems here that they are scambling to fix but where does it stand?

Update 4/16

Got he cortizza it was besutiful.. Had flecks of something that reflected like mica. Had to send it back tho. It just didn't quite fit the new ipad so it was a bit floppy.

Am liking the box wave farther down the string

May try this one now.

Hmm, strange. I got the Cortizza case, too and it worked out great. Agree that it is beautiful. Too bad it didn't work out for you.
