But please can we change out the cheap hard plastic that holds it in place

I really liked it until the cheap plastic sides that hold in the iPad broke so now the iPad does not magneticallyattach.

, the plastic seems cheap there.

The plastic fell apart and is totally unusable.

Two hard plastic notches are too tight to properly clamp the device which means it deforms the actual casing of the back of the folio... inaccurate description or poorly designed product, either way do not buy this.

The case itself is a nice hard plastic that protects the iPad well while closed, and i was pleasantly surprised how well the magnetic strip holds the iPad in place while typing.

Within the first thirty days the hard plastic corners that hold the tablet in place cracked causing it not to seat properly

Although mostly made of durable plastic, the unit feels very robust and strong.

I have broken the plastic - and I've been using this case for about a month.

The hard plastic above the keyboard comes into direct contact with the screen of the ipad

The keys are very responsive and are solid plastic like that of a notebook computers keys.

The plastic broke and made it unusable after 5 months

The more flexible plastic wraparound keeps it more secure and allows it to be taken in and out without scratching (like the old one).

A little sturdier plastic would make this a quality product, but I'm not sure I would recommend it to my family and friends with its current design.

The plastic that the iPad snaps into has cracked and will no longer hold it in position

The cheap plastic holding the iPad into the case cracks almost immediately from careful insertion of the iPad

is that there are no pads at the back, so the iPad's glass screen directly contacts the hard plastic case when closed.

The plastic near the sleep button is fragile and cracks

The plastic near the power key completely broke off a few months ago and this folio will no longer hold the iPad

Also, they finally have addressed the power on and off button slot which always broke on the hard plastic versions before.

To use this case, you place your iPad mini in the top plastic holder until it gently snaps in securely.

It was also very easy to set up and use and I love the magnetic feature that secures the iPad when typing, as well as, keeps the iPad secure and puts it to sleep automatically when closed

Product works as it should and seller did a good job with quick shipping.

Keypad feel is very good- almost as good as on my Apple laptop

I have a grey folio which I wouldn't recommend as it gets really dirty.
