Customers are satisfied with the design of the SaharaBasics Folio Case, frequently praising its slim and aesthetically pleasing appearance. However, concerns have been raised regarding the case's durability, with several reports of the case breaking or cracking after short periods of use, even without significant impact. The material quality has also been criticized. This suggests a trade-off between attractive design and long-term resilience.

I purchased this a month ago, and it’s already broken. The clear plastic part broke off in multiple corners (with no drops or anything, just on its own one day; see picture). Therefore, my iPad slips right out of the case now, so it is unusable now, again within only a month of purchase. Such cheap material and quality. This is so disappointing because it is cute and cost a hefty $50, so I expected it to last a long time. I never leave reviews, but I had to leave one this time because it is ridiculous that this broke within a month in a kid and animal free home, and I want to prevent someone else from making the same mistake in wasting their money on purchasing this. I expect better quality from Best Buy’s brand partners.

We have had this case for 3 months and it fell apart about 2 weeks ago. It broke or is cracked in 3 places. And it was not dropped. This is just from taking it out of the case to shoot video in our iPad video stand. Stay away from this case and spend the money and buy a zagg case.

Adorable and Compact!

This case is slim and fits the iPad really well. The back case is a see-through hard plastic - would not be advisable for kids to use, I am sure it will crack easily.
The front cover is magnetic, folds nicely as a stand for the iPad and it is very compact.
Neat little case, thank you for the opportunity!

Cute but doesn’t fit

So I was super excited to try this because it’s so cute. But I’m bummed. It doesn’t fit. The button holes don’t line up and it doesn’t clip in. If you are looking for a case and have the right iPad I would say try it if you want to spend that much.

Cute But Not Durable

This iPad mini is the cutest, I love the design and how slim it looks, but after 3 weeks of use the corners breaks easily. Because I paid full price of this I decided to use it but all corners are taped up so that my iPad mini will not keep slipping off. Not durable at all.

Looks nice and fits well. It does keep the device compact (thin). Not quite as happy with the level of protection for the iPad as other covers.

I found this case, ordered without seeing it, to be rather wobbly when closed. The cover slides around. Color is nice and the feel is pleasant. It is fairly easy to insert and remove the iPad from.

I love the light, cool look of the case, was worth paying more since the other options are solid colors

Do not buy this! I purchased the teal one, and in less than one month it broke, with minimal use. Overpriced cheap junk!

This cover is so cute and it fits my iPad perfectly
. The back of the case is clear and not too thick if you want a sleek and thin size. If you're busing this for a kid it might break easily.the top however is thick it will protect the front of the tablet.

Too delicate

The clear plastic is not of good quality. As I was putting my iPad mini 5 into this case I was really scared it would break... once I had ipad in case I noticed it has a magnetic closure but the plastic did not cover ipad to top edge and again when removing ipad I almost broke the corner.. wouldn’t recommend to buy.
