Friend of mine was lucky enough to get an iPad near launch. Today I saw it again and there were marks from the cover folds on the screen. Is this normal? Fatal flaw for my uses.

Hardly a flaw.

Just take a microfiber cloth to the screen the marks are gone.

Jeez people!!!

It's like, "Every time I tap the screen, it leaves a smudge. Is this a Flaw?"

It leaves 3 "lines" of oil. There are negative spaces on the folds, where the cover doesn't touch the screen, so the oil remains there. Hardly fatal, hardly a flaw. They wipe right off. ANY screen cover that has folds will leave similar marks.

+1 but sadly people on this forum just love to cry like a bunch of babies over nothing. If you don't like it, don't buy it. SIMPLE!

Its a case that's making an iPad dirtier. Yes, I believe that is a flaw.
 
Uh, it's not making the iPad dirtier - it's just not cleaning the entire screen. If you don't use it your entire screen would be that 'dirty'.
 
In that case your fingers are flawed cuz you are making your iPad dirtier every time you use them.

Thanks jdcell100 for the tip!

:rolleyes: Glad you're trying to compare apples and oranges. My definition of a case: To keep my iPad clean and free from scratches.

What exactly is the smart cover doing? Some scratch protection, but its making my iPad dirty. Are your fingers made to keep your iPad clean? Do you see how ridiculous and dense you are sounding now?

I'm just saying it's not a big deal. Just wipe it off.

Stop making a case for Smart Cover-gate
