I’ve had this issue with the initial launch and then replaced it a few months ago and here again the edges are coming undone just like the spine did before. As you can see there’s literally nowhere on these as they don’t get used very heavily, so it’s almost a matter of light time just passing by and the adhesive breaks down on its own.

Will see how Apple handles this, but I’m about done with their accessories as they keep failing. Cheaply made Chinese product with very little reliability. Which is irritating as the iPad seems fine, they just can’t get the whole package right.

If I were lugging it everywhere and greasy fingered and it was abused that would be one. But I wash my hands, clean the devices to keep oils off the screen and cover. Can’t imagine I’m doing something wrong on the iPad covers, but maybe someone else can shed some light.

And the Apple keyboard cover which I never close on the screen I’ve seen many others comment how it can scratch the display. So I’ve not used it and still even it is coming delaminated. Just seems like a bad design....

I have had that on 2x folios for the 11” which Apple replaced and now the folio for my 12.9 is starting to go the same way. It’s terrible for what they cost but I can’t find another case I like.
 
Agreed. They are replacing the folios but the keyboard covers they are saying they cannot do an appeasement on. I’ve requested a refund in full for those two keyboard covers.

asking for the same product and expecting a different result is kind of silly. We pay in big bucks only to be shorted in value and quality. I’ll tell ya, anything made in China now my household is having serious reservations.
