iPad mini iPad Mini Smart Cover - What is the exact weight?

[dmk1974]

Just curious what the exact weight (oz or g) is for the iPad Mini Smart Cover. I have a couple of off-brand cases that I had bought for the iPad Mini, but while not too bad, they do add some weight. Weights shown are my actual measurements.

Yeah, I know how to use Google as well smart-alec and and saw that post a few days ago. That post just said what someone thought it should weigh, but nobody actually weighed it which is what I am asking on this forum. I have a hard time believing that the Apple Mini Smart Cover actually weighs a whopping 5.3 ounces (.15 kg) like that poster suggested...especially when in my first post I listed 2 other cases that had full backs that weigh less than 5.3 oz.

Anyone else?

The iPad mini smart case weighs 110g, so the cover must weigh a little less than that. My Air cover weighs 100g so my guess is 75g for the mini cover. Hope this helps.

Here you go:

Used my Dymo, weight in ounces, with retina iPad mini and red Smart Cover. Hope it helps!

Maybe should have switched to grams, but here those are for more precision:
iPad w/ smart cover: 395g
iPad only: 325g
Smart Cover only: 70g
