Yoobao leather iPad 2 case (Smart Cover sleep/wake function)

[gwen1o]

What colors? We need a 13" for my husbands MBP.
Thanks for the tip!

I was at a TJMaxx last night & saw they had a 13" Incase neoprene sleeve for $9.99. They also had them in a 17".

Th
anks for the tip!

The 13" I just saw pink & the 17" were green, but it never hurts to check it out. I'm sure colors will vary from store to store.

I ordered it from Amazon...I got Free shipping + No sales tax which was less than the price of the actual direct website...
I ordered the Saddle case 3/22 & the Red case 3/24...I received both yesterday; 3/26..
Heavy Hitter 08? Are you a part of Heavy Hitters?

 

[Jay J]

The smell of toxins are pretty extreme on both cases..The red has a bit stronger stench......[Doesn't even smell good like leather] I mean it smells like those pleather shoes lol...

Does this work just as well for the AT&T 3G version? I've seen a couple of references in this thread to the 3G version's mic placement differing from the Wifi only version. Thanks in advance.

Someone posted here that when the case is folded all the way back (like a book) it triggers sleep mode. Can anyone verify if this is true? If so this might be a deal breaker for me, since I use my iPad that way often.

only if you pull the cover all the way back. Like pinch and drag then push up

I guess I'll see when mine comes in next week sometime. I'm not sure what you mean by pinch and drag then push up.

I am hoping I can use it with the cover folded back.

Any videos yet? Also, regarding the sleep issue when folded back, I'm guessing that it does the following, can anyone confirm?

- while closed, open the cover
- iPad 2 wakes up
- Fold cover underneath like you are holding a book.
- iPad 2 sleeps

If this is he case you will have to wake the iPad again which is annoying.

And also defeats the purpose of have a "smart cover" function to begin with. Even though it doesn't sound like a big deal, the whole point was that you didn't have to use the sleep/wake button.

I received mine yesterday, (see above), and have not encountered this issue at all. When I open the cover, the ipad "wakes", then if I immediately fold it back on itself, so that the cover is lying completely flat against the back, the ipad does not go to sleep. I actually use that position for reading.

I also want to reassure those that have the 3g ipad, that the mic hole on the case aligns perfectly. You can see this in the pics I posted yesterday.

I like both the red and the brown. So hard to decide which one I like better. Which one do you prefer with the white?

I like the red and it's vividness but on the brown one it has matched innards...

Any idea where i can get this in the UK?

Hmmm they don't ship to the uk?

 

[strausd]

That's the good thing about the guy they hate on here, he answers fast and ships faster and has a bunch of black and brown cases....

I actually contacted the seller asking how long it would take for him to get it to me and he replied very quickly and said he could ship it right away. I was about to order but before I did, I went to cancel the order from Amazon. I order a lot of stuff from Amazon and since it hasn't shipped I was going to just cancel the item. For some reason the cancel button wasn't there. So I contacted the Amazon seller and it took him forever to respond. All I want to do is cancel the order, it's not that difficult haha. I told him I wanted to cancel a few days ago and still no response. It is still the weekend so I guess that's not a big deal. But if I don't get a response tomorrow then I'll try and give him at least a bad rating on there. If it is canceled tomorrow then I will definitely find somewhere else to order from, I don't want to wait another week just for the Amazon seller to get more cases in. Then probably another week before I get mine.

And I saw someone earlier say that the mic hole aligns perfectly for the 3G iPad, are you saying it may not align perfectly for non 3G iPads?

 

[Jeff5i]

I think based in Jay's video that I will be turning off the smart wake/sleep feature. I still think this is going to be a good case even with this issue. I was ready to pull the trigger on the yoobao before they added the smart cover.

My understanding is that to disable the smart wakeup you first have to activate the magnets, then the setting will appear in iOS. Is correct?

 

[Triumph87]

Is everyone having the same issue as the video posted? When you flip it back it goes to sleep? So, if you hold it open with the flap folded back it will go to sleep immediately?
