Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I am a bit of a perfectionist. Case in point, this is my third iPad mini case. My first case was the ultra-cheap Khomo case, which I purchased off Amazon. The case lasted roughly two weeks (I believe?) before I returned it. In that span of time, it the cover began to fray, separate, and fall apart, which was fine by me because the case just didn't work. The magnets weren't strong enough, the angles of the case were too steep to hold the iPad upright, and I just generally hated the thing. My second case was the iSkin Vibes Folio. I made the common mistake of assuming a pricier product was higher quality when this case also fell apart shortly there after. All that aside, so far I love this case. My biggest problem with the Apple branded smart covers are that there is no hardshell included and that the colors, well, suck. The lack of variety was a serious deterrent, so when I saw these cases for just $12, I was intrigued but afraid of falling into the trap of the Khomo case, that the colors and designs would lure me in, but the lack of quality would ruin it. I was a bit apprehensive that this case would be awful, but the quality appears to be there. I love the colors, the magnets are very strong and hold the iPad at agreeable angles. My only complaint thus far is that the microfiber lining of the cover is probably excellent for keeping the screen clean, but it also picks up a bit of grime from the surface on which it is set when used as a stand. I'm sure I'll find a way around that at some point, but at this moment it's my only complaint. I'll update if things start falling apart, but so far, it has my stamp of approval
