It is after all an analogy... and I'm not a rich ******* like you who is into latest and greatest...

As long as it serves me a purpose, I don't mind keeping it longer...

Ha ha I bought this together with iPad 2 in bundle with screen protector in melaka for extra RM150.
No wonder the boss is wearing a Oyster Rolex Boy half gold.
But I can say the quality is really good and with magnetic cover can switch on the iPad if it is opened!

hey guys, i wonder whether anyone has problem where the clips and the silver rod on the smartcover are vry loose with each other

I bought the fake smart cover, actually it's oem or alike model, and pls dont go and buy those china made cheap smart cover, the cover won't hold to your screen strongly and will fall off when you reverse the iPad. So regret right now....
To know whether it is genuine, one of the steps is to check the box cover, for leather one the photo will feature cream color sc while for polyurethane one will feature blue sm. A lot of fake one out there only printed the blue one. So if u are about to buy leather one, if it's not cream sm featured on the box the it's basically fake.
Fake indeed cheap..

i saw the ori smart cover selling at machine KLCC at the price of RM299.00 only, i turn tail and walk off b4 their sales walk near to me. seriously if somebody able to make a fake 1, and capable of performing like a real 1, who cares its ori or not.

i bought mine very fake smart cover. cover back and front with magnetic on the front. the front and back cover is 2 different colour.
so when close or open, it will goes to sleep or wake mode. so far i carry around, the cover will not drop.

the back cover is hard type and front cover is like usual magnetic type smart cover. To me as long as it cover the front and back, i am ok with it. be it real or fake, it does not matter as long it function same. so far i m happy with my fake smart cover.

there are many diff quality for fake smart cover. some with leather, some cover front only, some cover front and back, some front n back but soft type etc etc.

does it really matter if a smart cover works the same be it fake or ori?

What u said is totally different thing altogether..yours is substitute cover,not fake smart cover..TS stated that someone was trying to sell him fake smart cover,which is the physical look of the original and fake looks the same but if examine thoroughly,its actually different..fyi,original smart cover is ONLY to cover the front,not front n back(in case u dont know)..if it covers front n back,its not necessarily fake,just different type..coz some people dont care if its smart cover or not,as long as it serve the purpose to protect the ipad
