Fintie Case for iPad Mini/Mini 2 / Mini 3 [Corner Protection] - [Multi-Angle Viewing] Folio Smart Stand Protective Cover with Pocket, Auto Sleep/Wake for iPad Mini 1 / Mini 2 / Mini 3, Purple

I love the color and the style

Sits up very well to watch shows on side. Does not fall over like my last one!

This is my 2nd Fintie iPad 3 case. I bought a black one about 3.5 yrs ago (for a similar price, I believe) when I first got my iPad 3. I finally broke down and decided that I really should replace it as it was starting to show wear. For $12, I think a 3.5 yr lifespan is pretty good in this world of cheap, disposable products. I tried replacing the old cover with a leather one from a different brand but the cutouts did not line up properly and the magnets were installed incorrectly so it didnt work to turn off the screen. The case cost $40-ish, but what use was it to me? Despite the nice leather used, it was a very poor design, so back it went. I decided to go back to the tried and trusted Fintie brand.... This time, I selected the purple color and I just love it. The design of this one is different from the old one. This one has a flap that turns into a stand with 3 different positions, while the old one just had a flap that could hook into a tab on the back (but it was not as sturdy and would not always stand up on the table). I can set the iPad on a table or even on my lap and it stays put. The new one also has a handy little pocket in the front, which is nice. The cutouts align perfectly with my 2015 iPad 3. I think the case will outlast the iPad itself since Ive noticed it is running a bit slower for certain games. If the case lasts me a couple years or more, I will be very happy! Overall, Im happy I went with this case again and wouldnt hesitate to recommend it to friends.

What I like about the case is the color and you can put it horizontal or vertical.

I use it to write and to watch online tv or to stream movies. I previously had an I blazon folio case that lasted 5 years. Then bought a cheap version on Amazon that stopped holding in place after a week. Now I tried one more time before paying double what I wanted to do. I found this one here on Amazon, and the lines looked much more sturdy and seemed the case would also hold onto my iPad mini 3 like it should. I wasn’t disappointed. For a low price at least to me, I found a sturdy option. And I’m pleasantly surprised that the purple is close to the picture- sometimes products are even neon when you open them, but not this one. I think this is my first review or close to first one on Amazon at all or lately, but why not, it’s a great deal and I’m using it right now. Oh and when I write, using apps, I do split screen and thumb type as it’s so easy on the hands. I do have a Bluetooth keyboard but I prefer it like this. And I’m so glad I don’t have a huge regular iPad. This fits in most purses even, and is durable. I’m not promising yours won’t break, but I’ve dropped this lots and never had so much as a cracked screen (I tend to drop things, but don’t need an otter box so far with this or my one I had for years. YMMV. I actually started out looking for the brand that I had for 5 years, but the price had gone up. So yes, this company did a great job.

I love this pattern as it matches the one my big iPad.

would buy again works well.

I’ve been buying Fintie cases for our iPads for years! This one fit perfectly and has the pen/stylus holder and can be propped up, as shown in the photo. They are good protection for the tablet.

This is my 3rd case, and the best I’ve had. My mini I-pad fits in like an envelope and can’t pop out like the others.
