The best iPad 2 case on the planet
I use my iPad a ton. It is my primary calendar, my primary access to digital documents (via Evernote), my task list, my reading material, and I frequently use it for web browsing and email. I also use my iPad for every single bizen.com product demonstration that I do. I rarely take my computer with me when I leave the office or house.
Unfortunately, ever since I picked up an iPad2 I have been searching for a decent case. I tried the magnetic case from Apple, but hated it. It was always falling off and was horrible for anything other than typing on a desk. The magnets are cool though.
I really liked the Apple case for the original iPad, but the microfiber looked horrible if you use it a lot (and have kids around). It protected the front and back of the iPad and was great for using in multiple positions (in your lap, on a table, while standing, etc). I tried using my old iPad case on my iPad2, but it was just too loose fitting.
What I decided that I really wanted was a durable leather case for the iPad 2 with the same design as the first iPad case, but with magnets for the auto-wake/sleep feature. I searched far and wide for this ideal case. I struck out at the Apple Store, Mac Authority, Best Buy, Target, Staples, and any other place I could browse iPad cases. Finally I broke down and searched the internet.
I hate to buy something like this sight-unseen, but I wasn’t having any luck so I figured it was worth a chance. Last week I ordered a Yoobao Executive Leather Case for iPad 2. It is slim, has all the right cutouts for cameras, speakers, switches and connectors. It even includes magnets to keep the case closed and auto-wake/sleep the iPad.
After a week with this thing I can say that it is everything I had hoped it would be. It looks awesome, works awesome, it wasn’t expensive and it is slim. It is by far the best iPad 2 case I have found anywhere.
In the work I do, things like iPad cases seem to influence people’s opinion of you. This one totally fits my personality: quality, simple, effective, and well-designed.
