I scored two different iPad 3 cases:
(1) Beyza Executive II case for iPad 2, black leather.
(2) Switcheasy Canvas for iPad 3, in black.
I can`t decide which I like more.
The Beyza is a high quality leather case and a price to boot. Cheaper than Vaja though and a much better laid out design than anything Vaja has (I`ve used the Libretto and and underwhelmed). What I love about the Beyza is that it takes the benefits of Apple`s own Smart Cover design and integrates it into a slim package. Quite light and offers great protection. The magnets work perfectly with the 3 as does on off. This case has been on my iPad 3 since it arrived from Germany.
I was a huge fan of the Canvas for the iPad 2, except for the cracking issue. I actually have a few of the cases kicking around and they all developed cracks, including one I got as a warranty item from Switcheasy.
Their version for the iPad 3 seems much beefier in the corners. I don`t envision the cracking issue being an issue with this case. They removed the old latch, but I liked the latch. I never had a problem with it. That being said, the magnets hold the case closed fairly well. On-off works without a hitch for me.
A big concern from many was the lack of a typing position. The case does have a typing position. You just squish it down a bit and it holds. Mild wobble when typing, but not bad at all. This case is currently on my iPad 2. I think I`ve found the two cases I want to keep on my IPads full time.
5 stars for both. Oh wait, this isn`t a rating site.
