Ok, so I need a case to purchase for my new iPad. Can someone recommend me the cheapest case for the protectiveness.
Note:
I do not want a sleeve.
I want something that is in the $60 range or cheaper.
I like hard cases but I will get a silicone/tpu case if it would be best.
I like cases that lock when you cover the screen (Like the smart cover).
I like I do not like cases that are very shiny and easily get finger prints.

Please help me! Thanks SO much in advance! :)

Any takers? Pleaseee?

Sorry, can't help you for $35. The Marware micro shell back and Apple Smart Cover is my recommendation, but that over $100.
 
Ok, how about $60

I prefer the genuine Apple SmartCover. I just don't like the cheap knock offs, and the Marware folio my wife bought is not even working right. The magnets thing looks easy but it has to be done right. I trust apple to do it right.

For $60 you can get a Smart Cover but no back protection. Take a look at the Marware folio case. I think my wife paid $60. But beware the magnets don't work.
 
Yoobao Executive Leather case. Perfect for the iPad It's the only one I want and ever need.

Only a matter of time before they release it for the new iPad.

Well I looked into the microshell back item and it seemed nice but you said it would be $100 and thats with the leather smart cover im guessing? Is there a noticeable difference with the quality? is it worth it?
