    This thing is slick, light, and powerful. Unfortunately, I find that Apple devices from this generation really cut into my hands when gaming. The aspect ration is somewhat off for videos too. In retrospect, I wouldn't buy this again for my uses.

    We’ve purchased this cover several times as we have gone through various iPads. Of course, sometimes the size is different, but it has always worked well.
