Hello
I am a high school student who wants to take my iPad 4 to school, mainly for productivity during class. I need a case that is quite strong but looks good as well, I have been looking at the Portenzo bookcase and the Pad & Quill author series. I like these cases because they look nice but they also disguise your iPad as a journal which makes me feel better about leaving it in a car. If anyone can recommend another case to me or provide information on the ones mentioned above I would greatly appreciate it. I‘m not too worried about how much it costs but if its expensive I want to get good quality for my money.
Cheers
 
You could also look at some of the keyboard cases if you expect to type. The logitech ones may be a good option especially if you go with a neutralist color. There is the FabricSkin and the UltraThin Folio.


For non-keyboard ones, Speck has a good case coming out as well as Logitech.

After having my first iPad wood case break (wood split) within a few months, I've been wary of them plus they tend to be a little heavier.
 
I had the Dolce on my iPad 3 along with a leather smart cover and loved it. Didn't add any bulk or anything.

edit- the Zum SC Ultimate is nice as well, but I don't think they sell them anymore - http://amzn.to/16uoKqm

I think I will be more likely to be taking notes by hand than typing but maybe typing would be better but I guess I will have to find out what works for me. I like the look of speck cases. Are they sturdy and solid or cheap and break easy? I like the book look-a-like cases but if they aren't very strong and are mostly made for looks I think I might pass, I was hoping they were strong so then I could have an excuse to buy one as I don't have one on my iPad now:eek: . The dolce looks like an Apple smart case, the only thing I don't like about those sorts of cases is the viewing angles its never quite right. Can anyone say anyhing good about the Moshi versa cover/case I like the cover on the screen.
