    Bought the Khomo cover from Amazon as per the link above. Very high quality, fits like a glove, velvety texture so feels good to the touch, openings in all the right places for buttons etc., highly recommended.

    There was a few official apple smart cases on adverts recently brand new and for a lot less than Apple want, might be worth a look. I got one for my iPad air and its 100% genuine.

    Yes, but they are no better than the ones linked above or similar ones on Ebay.

    Got a case off e-bay last year and I cannot tell the difference with an Apple case. Apple get these made in the same Chinese factories and add a handsome premium.

    Any link to that eBay seller? Did it stay ok after months of use? Read that some of the imitations fall apart after a couple of months.

    This is who I bought from.

    Not sure if they do it for the iPad mini.

    Have mine a year now and it's still perfect.

    Harvey Norman have one on their deals for €14.99 at the moment.
    I ordered it online for collection but the store had no stock so they
    Gave me a case worth €34.99.
