I searched for a thread about this and I couldn't find a good one to answer this. But what color Smart Cover do you guys think will go best with my new WHITE IPAD that will be coming in a few days?

Are you going with Poly or Leather?

For Poly, I loved the orange and white look. But considering they don't sell those anymore, I'd go with either blue or light gray.

Leather, definitely red or navy.

Well I think it is all personal preference since nothing looks bad with white. However, my opinion would be blue. Blue, white and silver (aluminum) is one of my favourite colour combinations.

I went with the Navy leather one for my new white iPad. Kinda wished I'd gone with the red leather after looking at the different options but I just wanted to get my preorder in after trying for two hours.

What color clothing do you choose with a white top?

No different... pick your favorite. All the options work.

I got a cream leather one for my white iPad 2. I love the colour combination, but it gets dirty quickly. I've ordered a dark grey polyurethane for my 3rd gen white iPad. I like how it looks on the interactive Smart Cover animation on Apple's website.

I have gone for the black leather smart cover with my white iPad.

That arrived on friday so I now have this cool smart cover with no iPad until friday.

I went orange because I'm on an orange kick. If I bought from Apple it would have to be dark gray because the blue was not the shade I loved and I'm not really a pink person.

Pink looks good with white.

+1 internets for the link.

I agree with both the "any color works with white" and the "pick what goes with a white shirt" comments.

I've been obsessed with greay*/white and will likely go with that. The link solidified it. Thanks again. :)

I went to the Apple Store, explained my situation (white iPad coming on Friday, wanted a smart cover), asked if I could try some out with a white iPad 2.

They were extremely accommodating and took time to let me explore my aesthetic preferences. In the end I went for red leather for a classic folio look.

Any colour goes with white to be honest. Personally I went with the official black smart cover. I also have a tan coloured one from a different company called Grove in Oregon which has an engraved design. I've pretty much stopped using the black one since I got that one. The red one goes pretty well too. It really comes down to personal taste.

I don't like "loud" colors so dark gray or light gray for poly ones. I have a light gray on my white iPad 2 now and will probably buy the dark grey for the 3rd generation white iPad to change it up a little.
