Anyone using this casing? saw it selling at $49.90 at sim lim. Does it add a lot of weight to the ipad mini?

Hi zenith1918,

I've used this case previously, and I found the magnetic strip in the cover a little weak.

In addition, when I fold back the case (as seen in the first picture from the top, on the website) to type, I find it very uncomfortable as the "folding structure" is not sturdy.

The only plus point of the case is its lightweight / slim form factor. At $49.90, you have better options.

Bought this case as well.
Thought the exterior feel is quite nice and it doesnt add much weight to the ipad.

Con is that as mentioned, the magnet is weak.
I bought 2 at Epi, 3 staff said all the cases available at the moment had no sleep wake function. :s8:
I tried at home then realise 1 can sleep wake and 1 cant. So went for exchange.
So if you buy this case, ensure the sleep wake function works 1st.

Ok..I will try out the sleep wake function.the current casing I am using adds quite a certain amt of weight,till it feels like holding an ipad! So will be looking for a lighter casing.thanks for your feedback!

Bought this Essensual cover for the mini and I have to agree with the feedback for it.

Staff @ Epi Bugis mentioned that it does not have the sleep/wake function but when I tried it, it works.

As for the cover, the magnetic function is weak so when I have the mini standing, the folded potion sometimes gives way and the mini falls flat.

Other than that, it is a light cover and it protects the mini well on all sides.

so far only seen it at Infinite aka BestDenki's Apple counters. most of their outlets either left with smokey black or sold out entirely, the "clear" version is fully sold out.
