JETech Case for iPad mini 4th Gen (2015), Black

Unlike Apple's current offerings, this covers the back of the iPad Mini 4 from accidental scratches _while_ having an integrated screen cover. The two part apple equivalent costs well over £50. This was a stunning £9.95. Mine is dark grey, it could be an uninteresting colour, but the shade and texture ensures it looks sharp, no nonsense. Considering the quality, I'd expect the many other colours will look really good too. The fit is as good as you could hope for, actually, it's better than you should hope for, once you take the price into consideration. All ports and buttons are easily accessible, auto-sleep/wake works well, triggering the audible "click" sound effect from the iPad just as the screen cover lands. Nice. See my photo to see how good the fit is around the buttons. The cover's magnet is inside, along the long edge of the screen cover and attaches to the other long side (by the soft hinge). So you get the "toblerone" shape to prop up the iPad into the typing or viewing angles, or to use as a grip. This case is readily worth the price I paid, and I could buy a fleet of the other colour cases for the price of apple's equivalent. A bargain, and as long as "your" colour is available, this case is a must buy. ** I have now bought my second case (the fire engine red). My 1st case finally bit the dust after one drop too many. The original case served my iPad valiantly and took the damage from each fall. While i wasn't being clumsy, the slim case provided great grip while i was walking around & continued the iPad mini's pocketable convenience. This case is still an easy recommend (hence me buying this replacement) and is happily continue buying one of these per year before I'd consider buying the Apple solution.

The item in question arrived promptly and without issue, packaging was easy to open and get the item out of which cannot be said for all items of this nature. The cases colour, red in my case, is slightly darker than what the picture shows but its not incorrect or to flamboyent to be annoying in its shade. To fit the ipad into the case requires just a simple process of placing the ipad into the soft plastic enclosure and lightly pressing it down in all 4 corners untill you hear a light click to signify its all in place. Fit wise, its perfect and it isn't loose or falling out, it hugs the ipad correctly unlike some other cases from other brands which I've had in the past for older models of ipad. It has the ipad smart case functionality which allows the ipad to open and close as if you were just tapping the power button to put the ipad into standby and it works correctly for me without issue. The grooves you can see on the picture are to allow that part of the case to fold into a triangle and prop the ipad up if you wish to use and view from a side view, the strips are magnet so its very unlikely for triangle support to come loose which is really good feature of the case. The only negative some people might have of the case and while does not bother me especially is that the gooves on the case from protude out the back and do press onto the screen of the ipad, they are however soft and not hard so I cannot see any long lasting damage coming from them, it will leave a band on the screen in the similar way your finger does on the ipad screen, so you will just need to polish it off with a soft cloth like you use for glasses. I am personally going to get some shammy leather and cut it to size and place that on the screen but its not really a issue at the end of the day. I would recommend this to anyone who needs a snug fitted case which they want to protect their ipad plus have a support to view it on a desk and such. I have bought this version aswell as the 9.7inch ipad pro version and there is little difference between the two beyond size and they work as described.

I bought this for my new mini iPad 4 as my old mini cover did not fit. It is a good price and fits well, but I did not like the feel of the flap cover as it folded back but then sort of hung at an angle and it didn't wake the iPad every time. Today I had a brainwave, off to pcworld to see if an original Apple mini iPad 4 cover would fit with the protective back from the JETech still in place. Brilliant it did. So bought the Apple cover and then carefully cut off the flap from the JETech cover and hey presto I have a neat little grey and green cover. If you look at it this way I bought a back cover for £9.95 instead of Apple's one at £47. I know I still paid £28 for the real Apple cover but it functions well and I'm delighted. Some of you may like to consider this option.

I don't see the point in leaving immediate reviews for products that wear over time so I've left it 8 months to see how this case stood up to daily use. I've been using this case since December 2016 and it's fantastic. It's still going strong now without any signs of giving up. I've never dropped it so couldn't say how it would protect my iPad mini in a fall but lets just say I feel in safe hands. The rubberized feel of the rear of the case instills confidence when using it on the do, the front also has a similar kind of feel. There is no cracking to the rear of the case and the hinge for the front flap isn't showing any signs of wear. The folding stand feels sturdy when in use and sits the iPad at the perfect viewing angle when sat at a table. The hinges of the front flap also have plenty of give in them and don't feel stiff at all like some other cases I've used. One of the main plus point for me though is it doesn't really make the iPad feel too big, it's a lovely slim fitting case Overall I'm extremely happy with case and feel it's fantastic value for money over the original.

I always find JTech products very good quality and good value. This cover for the iPad Mini 4 fits well and does what it says - the auto sleep/wake function works well. It's probably best not to remove the iPad from the case once you've fitted it. I removed it to photograph the iPad to write a review (which you can find elsewhere.) It fits so tightly it's not that easy to remove the iPad from the cover. You have to start at the corners. Having now put it back in the case, I'm not sure it fits quite so snugly on the corners, but I might be imagining it.

Have had a couple of ones in black before which are still going strong. Great protection As Long As you remember to close it, if you don’t and people put things on it - scratched screen. Closing, shuts down the iPad nicely, it then feels very protected. I’ve dropped my older ones a couple of times and they lived no problem (both times on stone floors) so well worth the money just for that. I haven’t got a screen protector on any of them, just personal preference, I like to view ‘as is’. But would strongly recommend for the accident prone. Finally the Red looks great, feels nice, doesn’t smell plasticity and whole thing well made and very easy to fit.

Excellent cover great service

My old, retired iPad Mini 2 had Apple Smart Case that felt like an okay investment, but with iPad Mini 4 Apple made the mistake to go an extra mile of greed by separating case and cover to maximize profit. Naturally, I had to turn to Chinese knockoff cases. I bought the Grey color which I think best complements a Space Grey Apple product. PRO: * The case is ~9 times cheaper than Apple Silicon Case + Apple Smart Cover for iPad Mini 4. * The magnet for the Smart Cover auto-sleep functionality is strong enough to keep the cover glued to the device if you turn it face down. The Smart Cover is solid enough and doesn't detaches when rolled as a stand. CON: * While it fits perfectly, it requires serious effort to remove and there's risk you could damage your device. * The rubbery material feels cheap and unpleasant to touch. It is almost exact opposite of Apple's Smart Case (for iPad Mini 2) which had a warm, leathery feel to it. The inside of the smart cover is textile texture but very rough compared to Apple's much softer texture. You will get used to it, but you won't love it one bit. * The hinge between the case and the cover is inch too thick, making the cover imperfectly align with the back of the device. If you turn the cover on the back of the device and hold the device in portrait with both hands, the cover will stick into your right palm. Again, you will get used to it, but you won't love it one bit. SUMMARY: * It's a great, solid throwaway case for iPad Mini 4. If you stain it, if you tear it, you'll not feel a drop of remorse. You'll only feel annoyed you'll have to struggle 5 minutes to remove it.

Very good Quality and easy to install

A entrega ocorreu no mesmo dia, o que me surpreendeu! O fornecedor teve o cuidado de utilizar embalagem de transporte plástica com plástico bolha interno. Há tempos não recebia um produto tão bem embalado! Produto entrega o que promete, honesto, simples e funcional. Encaixes precisos. Material de qualidade. Acabamentos de qualidade. Resta saber se será durável com o uso no dia a dia. O produto veio muito bem embalado em caixa do fabricante, selada, com proteção interna contra danos e poeira, e enchimento interna para não "amassar" o produto e manual do fabricante.

Very pleased with my order and it fIt my iPad perfectly. Would recommend to mini iPad users and the price was reasonable.

Seit mehreren Jahren schon habe ich nun immer wieder Hüllen von JETech für meine iPads (iPad Air 2, iPad mini 2 und iPad mini 4) im Einsatz und bin von Anfang an nie enttäuscht worden, denn hier bekommt man zu einem sehr vernünftigen Preis eine sehr schicke wie auch durable und nochdazu auf die Funktionen des iPads vollkommen abgestimmte Schutzhülle, die keine Wünsche offen läßt! Verarbeitungsqualität ist absolut top - passgenauer geht es nicht mehr und die Farbauswahl ist auch toll. Da ich ein Poweruser bin was mein iPad anbelangt, kann es schon mal sein, daß ich nach ein bis eineinhalb Jahren meine Hülle wechsle, denn es läßt sich nicht vermeiden, daß einem da das iPad das eine oder andere Mal wo dranstößt oder auch herunterfällt. Gerade hier zeigt sich dieses Case auch vollkommen souverän. Alle Merkmale gelten natürlich unabhängig von der Farbe. Ich hatte mal eine Zeit lang zum Vergleich ein 6 mal so teures original Applecase und war recht bald sehr enttäuscht davon, da es nach einem halben Jahr schon so angespeckt war was sich auch nicht mehr wegreinigen ließ, wobei ich anmerken muss, daß ich mit meinen Sachen wirklich pfleglich umgehe. Für dieses Geld kann man sich 6 Jahre lang jedes Jahr ein neues Case von JETech holen sofern man der Farbe überdrüssig wäre oder auf Grund von Schutzeffekten eine neue Hülle von Nöten sein sollte. Wie gesagt, dieses Case läßt sich toll und einfach reinigen und schmutzt auch so gut wie gar nicht an. Ein echter Handschmeichler, der hinsichtlich aller Koordinaten dem original Applependant souverän Paroli bietet. Absolute Kaufempfehlung!
