The Incase Magazine Jacket covers and protects the new iPad screen with minimal material and folds away behind the iPad so you can hold it with one hand, prop it up on a flat surface to type on it or prop it up to watch the display like a monitor. It would be nice if it would folded up stayed folded up behind the iPad on its own.

I had the same case for my iPad 2 and loved it. The older model had a nice stretch strap on the back which was great for holding the cover closed, and it also helped to hold the iPad more securely in the palm of my hand. I really wish the new model for the iPad 3 had the stretch strap also.

This new model has a smart magnetic cover which is supposed to wake up and put the iPad to sleep. But I have a screen protector on mine so perhaps that's why this feature does not work.

That said, this is still the nicest case out there, IMO. It maintains the sleek profile of the iPad without adding much bulk, and the cover offers great protection. My last one held up pretty well so I'm happy to have this new one. And I love the cranberry and white combo!

UPDATE: 12/27/12

After using this case for a week, I had to remove two stars because the cover doesn't wake and sleep the iPad. I looked into this problem and it should not occur even though I have a screen protector. Thus, it can only be a defect.

Furthermore, this case is heavier than the last one for the iPad 2 due to the magnets in the cover. Combined with the extra weight of the iPad itself, the difference is significant.

I liked this case when I bought it. But the sleep/wake doesn't work perfectly. It often stays on when I close the cover, which is annoying. Also, less than three months in, two of the plastic corners broke off, and not because it fell. They just 'wore' off and then snapped right off. What the heck? Of course, the damn iPad falls and gets a bang right where the plastic broke off. What does one do 'in case' this happens? I liked the raised ridges to hold it with, but in the end, I'm probably just going to buy a real Apple sleeve cover. Very disappointed the Incase lasted less than six months. Oh, and now holding it is uncomfortable because there's two sharp things on either side. Boo.

To say I LOVE InCase is an understatement. I have owned four of their bags and this iPad holder was BY FAR my favorite. I say, 'was' because I could not be more disappointed with the one I just purchased. I don't know if they redesigned or what... but it is not good. The old one had a bit of a magnetic closure... not unlike the ones from Apple... so the cover stayed snug with the device when closed. This new one just flaps on top... no magnetic closure. It feels cheap as well. The plastic, etc. I had this proven to me when a corner cracked off the edge. Now I am sure it is covered under warranty, but who wants to take the trouble to research how to go about sending it back, taking it to the postal carrier, paying for shipping, etc? It is easier for me to just buy a new case. I am really disappointed as this is not a new case for me. I was a returning customer who LOVED the same case by the same manufacturer... but this new one was very different. Same in appearance only. It is the first disappointment I have had with InCase, but a big one since I expected to be buying a new version of the same case I owned before. I was so wrong. Do not recommend this in any way.
