Whether the Apple Smart Folio for the iPad Mini 6th Generation is worth the price really depends on what you're after in an iPad cover. Based on our research, here’s a closer look at what it offers.
Starting with the design, the Smart Folio has a sleek, minimalist look and provides front and back protection. It attaches to the iPad with magnets, which is convenient for taking it on and off. However, some have found that the magnets could be stronger, so if you're moving around a lot with your iPad, that's something to think about.
As for functionality, it comes with an automatic wake-and-sleep feature, which is great for saving battery as it turns your iPad on when you open the cover and off when you close it. It also acts as a stand, which is useful for watching videos or typing. But according to our research, the stand might feel a bit unstable if you're putting some pressure on it, so keep that in mind if you plan on using that feature often.
In terms of style, the Electric Orange color is pretty bold and does stand out. It's made from high-quality polyurethane, making it lightweight, so good for carrying around. A couple of people have mentioned that the edges can feel a bit sharp, which might not be the most comfortable if you're holding it for a while.
Price-wise, the Smart Folio is on the higher end compared to some third-party options. If you're really into the Apple brand and like how everything fits together within their ecosystem, you might find the price worth it.
But if you're more focused on saving money, there are cheaper cases out there that offer similar functionality and possibly more protection.
So, if you love the design and are used to Apple's products, the Smart Folio might be a good match. But if you're budget-conscious, checking out some third-party cases could be a good move, especially if you're looking for something with more protection and stability.
