Product Description
From the Manufacturer
The Smart Cover is constructed from a single piece of polyurethane and features a sleek new covered hinge that custom fits the thin profile of iPad mini. It comes in six vibrant colors. And it doesn’t just protect iPad mini. The Smart Cover actually wakes iPad mini when opened and puts it to sleep on close. The Smart Cover also folds into different positions to create a stand for reading, viewing, typing, or making FaceTime calls. And it’s easily removable, so you can snap it on and off whenever you want.

The good:
It's flexible and ready to attach directly to your iPad mini with no hardware.
The color is exactly as pictured.
The microfiber lining extends behind the magnets so there isn't any scraping from the magnets rubbing the housing.
The bad:
It does not protect your product from drops and water.
It does not protect the back of the iPad mini at all.

As for the cover itself, I'd rate it 4 stars for the exceedingly slim form, the strength of the magnets, and its fair sturdiness as a stand. However, I subtracted 1 star because the color I received was not the same pretty coral pink that appears in the photo, but a bubblegum pink instead.
The smart cover does just as it claims, turning on and off the iPad as you open and close the cover. No complaints there.
The only reason I gave the cover 4 stars instead of 5 is that the cover gets in the way in the worst way when you're trying to take a picture. Folded back, it covers the lens, and there's no getting around that, so I'm always lifting it and it's awkward. Perhaps an adjustment to keep in mind for a future version.
You'll never touch the lock button on top again, as this wakes the iPad from sleep when pulling open. You can "peek" at your notifications by just lifting it off for a second, and then just let it snap back. The magnets are extremely strong, but not to the point where it's impossible to take off. It really seems like the perfect balance of magnet strength.
The cover also doubles as a stand. It's not as useful as I had thought, but certainly comes in handy. The killer feature being that this will be on your iPad 99.9% of the time, so it's there when you need it, and never in the way when you don't.
There's a real difference between the knockoffs and the genuine Apple cover. The mini cover is cheap enough on Amazon that the risk isn't even worth getting a terrible copy. Go for the real thing, and you will not be disappointed.
