This innovative case has accurate cut-outs for the iPad. The depth of the iPad mini is approximately 0.37 inch (9.4 mm) and nestles quite nicely in this case. The cut-out for the iSight camera is spot on as are the ones for lighting connector, openings for the built-in stereo speakers, lightning port connector, headphone minijack, volume buttons, mute switch, etc. The 1/2" (12.7 mm) covers the opening for the iSight camera when the case is closed. As always, if you own an iPad you're constantly worried about protection. Mind you, there are those freakish accidents, but this case is solid and should hold up if it's dropped.

~ Leather Case
~ Bluetooth Handset
~ Charging Cable for Handset
SPECS:
~ The handset is compatible with iPad, iPad 2, the new iPad, iPhone and most other Bluetooth enabled phones and computers

The iPad can easily be inserted into the case and once that is done a 2" (50.8 mm) leather flap with Velcro attachments can be tucked back around the case at the side to hold it in. The inside of the case is lined with a complimentary-colored light gray suede. There is a recessed pocket for the Bluetooth phone handset and another one that holds the charging cable. The recessed cable compartment is covered and secured by two Velcro attachments. There's also room enough for a few other small items in this compartment. There is a magnetic clasp that will keep the case close with a simple flip of the cover. This case is a folio and can be easily adjusted for viewing in both vertical (portrait) and horizontal (landscape) positions.

This is a nice looking leather case with a beautiful textured exterior. The interior is soft suede to protect your iPad from scratches and drops. The lid is held shut with an elastic strap to keep the top flap closed and protect the iPad screen if you were to drop the case. The case also has some additional features that are useful to the user. It can be set up in a stand mode to allow you to read or the watch movies in the landscape mode. There are magnets in the case that will put the iPad into a sleep mode when you close the lid and awaken it when you open the lid. In addition the iPad is held securely in place by a fold-in leather flap that is secured with a Velcro strip.
Inside of the case you will find a thin line style Bluetooth phone handset that will let you talk like you would on a normal phone system. The linking of the phone to your iPad is fast, simple and easy. It is ideal for those that use their iPad for Skype or a VoIP internet call system. There is also a covered storage area that contains a USB cable for use when charging the Bluetooth handset. The storage area is also big enough to hold your ear plugs for listening to your music. The handset can be used to talk for 5 hours or be on standby for 200 hours. The charging time is about two hours and you can charge it with your computer or any USB AC powered wall charger. A charger does not come with the case. The nice thing about using a phone hand set is that people sitting around you cannot hear the other person speaking and for many people using a phone handset will just seem more natural.
There are a couple of issues that for me were problems. I linked the phone handset with two iPads and two iPhones and in all cases we had a buzzing noise in the background for the person receiving the call. When we did not use the hand set the buzzing was not present. The other issue is that I hold the iPad to read a lot and when I folded over the cover my hand was trying to hold the case right where the suede cover was covering the storage area. It just felt awkward and anything in the storage area would eventually fall out.
Overall the case is beautiful on the outside and the finish on the leather exterior is top quality. I rate the product as a four star item because of the buzzing in the call being heard by the person receiving the phone call. The buzzing is not so loud that you cannot use the phone handset but it is noticeable to anyone you call and they will comment on it.
I was supplied a sample for test and evaluation and I promised to provide a fair and honest review.
Read Best Reviews of CTA Digital Bluetooth Phone Handset with Leather Case for iPad Here
We have several different iPad/Android tablet cases.
Most of them are similar in style and function with the notable exception of the PadPivot which is an extraordinary and unique tablet stand.
But, this portfolio by CTA is a very nice leather tri-fold with several compartments and an internet phone.
*** Construction ***
The construction is made of a smooth grey suede interior with a black leather exterior.
When closed, it feels sturdy like a hardcover book.
***
You also have a connector compartment with enough space for a second plug or pair of wired (or wireless earplugs).
***
The phone is a nice option. I use several different wireless, Bluetooth headsets, so I probably would use the enclosed phone very infrequently.
***
The case can fit all of the current versions of the iPad, 1-4. iPad 5 is being redesigned, so we'll have to wait on its applicability here.
But, if you have an Android tablet that is the same dimensions as an iPad, then you'd have the option of owning a very nice, elegant and sturdy tablet portfolio.
