I'm currently looking for a good case. One with good quality, light weight, good value (and price), ability to use the front cover, preferably as a four fold smart cover.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good case for one in the USA?

I just ordered this:

And

My wife got a Belkin one for her mini retina and it's really nice. I wish I could find it for my iPad Air. I actually like the wake to open option for it, and the ones in the link above just seem too cheap. I'm worried it will last a month and I'll need a new one then.

Is the MoKo Apple iPad Air Case - Smart Case the closest thing the Apple Smart Case? I've tried so many cases trying to find one similar to the Apple Smart case but at a lower price.

I'm waiting for the Moshi Versacover for the ipad Air to turn up in Thailand... have one a an ipad min, and it's excellent.

1.Very, very lightweight front and back protection
2.Works in both 2x angled landscape but also portrait
3. The small and tasteful metal moshi logo on the back, means the front cover stays there when it's folded back on itself, no flapping around.
 
Silly question for you, but with all the free cases that you get to review from Amazon, did you buy the Mojo or choose it as the best that you have reviewed?


I mean moko not mojo (auto correct). I first bought it not knowing that I can get a refund on it for doing a review. My favorite case is the Poetic Graphgrip which I actually bought and are using right now as my main home case. I have 20-30 cases to review and a few getting added every week. I like the rooCASE Origami case for my iPad Air that I just reviewed today.

I want to get on your deal :). I just buy the cases to try them out and then after the collection gets a little silly, I give them away. I will probably do just that after the holiday mailing rush. I have at least 5 that I've tried that I can pass along to Macrumor buds.

Is the poetic Graphgrip still your top choice? I was thinking of getting a silicone case, but they don't have a cover to protect the screen or prop up the iPad, and I've had iPhone ones that attracted a lot of dust.

According to some reviews, the MoKo case that is similar to the original Apple Smart Case is pretty heavy. Anyone have any input on this?

How do you go about getting free stuff for reviews? If you have a few decent spare cases and wouldn't mind sharing, please PM me.

Thank you!
