iPad Fintie SmartShell Case for iPad Air (from Amazon)

Looks exactly like the Poetic Slimline!

Which one is which as a joke?

Is the plastic shell lined with microfiber or just the cover?

Shouldn't you have gotten it Tuesday?

Which is unrelated to the case. But you didnt seem to get overnight prime! Lol!

I bought the Finite 360 folio case from Amazon for $10 shipped, and it's a great cheap case for my Air. It's nice to be able to sit at a table and view in landscape and portrait. Though in landscape it would fall flat with a few "heavy" touches but I fixed the problem by putting a single piece of loop side Velcro on the bottom of the outside of the case. The off feature works perfectly and there's a nice elastic band that keeps the case closed when in transit. Plus it seems to protect the edges of my Air if it gets dropped.

For $10 you can't go wrong, I wonder why anyone would pay more than $20 for a case ?

I ordered this case the same day the OP did also from amazon for $8.99.

For the money this is an excellent case. If I didn't know what the price was, I'd probably price it closer to $30. It fits well, seems very protective, and the Smart Cover wakes the ipad as advertised.

The only flaw is using it as a stand. This case sufferers the same design flaw the Apple smart case does by switching to a three section cover that relies on the magnet to stay closed when using it as a stand, it becomes less stable.

Apart from that one small design flaw, which isn't a problem for me because I never use it as a stand, this case seems like a steal for its price.

Looks like the Poetic has a larger camera hole and a larger headphone opening.
The Fintie might be a problem for larger headphone plugs.
The holes in the Poetic also look more finished (to me) because they're beveled and not just a hole drilled straight-through. Especially the rear mic hole. On the Fintie it almost looks like a last minute afterthought.
Other than that they look pretty much identical.
Is the magnet on the Fintie strong enough to keep the cover secured when upside-down and closed?

I really like Fintie. I got the smart shell case for the mini and also a small bluetooth keyboard. Both work really well and were really cheap!

when you open the cover, does it stick to the back of the ipad case with a magnet or no?
