Hey guys

I need a thin case for my ipad 3 that covers the front and back, the kind of portfolio style.

Is there a most popular choice? I always used InCase but their prices are getting stupid so im looking for something a bit cheaper if possible. At the moment i still keep my ipad in its original box when not suing it so need to get a case soonish!

Check the Amamzon UK website for this case. http://www.amazon.com/Poetic-HardBa...LX5G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338554155&sr=8-1

I bought it in the US and i'm quite happy with it. It's a complete rubber case that has a built in smart cover. I paid $13 for it. I really like the look, fit and finish. It looks quality for the price.

looks good, does it have rear protection? I cant see any images

Yes it offers rear protection. What I like most about it, all of the holes and cutouts are aligned perfectly and you can't beat the price. :)

Forgot to mention they sell other colors as well.
 
I just got my Poetic Hardback case 2 days ago, White case for my white iPad, and it's the best 16$ that I could have spent, highly recommend this if you're looking for sleekness with back protection and also a smart cover like functionality
 
MARWARE CEO HYBRID. Strong ,versitile and cool looking for sure.
Check amaz and YouTube. Not in that order
 
Two days ago I bought the Skech Porter and it is lovely, has a hand strap when carrying it with one hand and controlling it with the other. It also has three different tilt positions and feels great on your lap when sitting down.

I think the design is nice and I like the skech brand
but for me personally, not sure if I could suggest the $40-50 price tag when the Poetic and Moko versions (90% identical to the Skech Porter, hand strap and all) go for under $20.

After comparing it to similar but cheaper alternatives, I found that the build quality was a lot nicer and feels better.
