As well as announcing the new iPad 2, Apple also introduced a new iPad 2 accessory called the Smart Cover. The Smart Covers clip onto the side of the iPad 2 to form a protective case for the iPad 2’s display.
The Smart Cover features built-in magnets, which connect to built-in magnets in the iPad 2 casing. They snap together and line up by themselves, ensuring a seamless and secure fit.
The Smart Cover and iPad 2 were made for each other. Literally. Built-in magnets draw the Smart Cover to iPad for a perfect fit that not only protects, but also wakes up, stands up, and brightens up your iPad. That’s not just smart. It’s genius.
Design and Functionality
The Smart Covers will be available in a wide range of colors, catering to different tastes and preferences. They come in two material options: polyurethane and leather. The polyurethane covers are available in vibrant colors like blue, green, pink, orange, and gray, while the leather covers offer a more premium feel with colors such as black, tan, navy, cream, and red.
One of the standout features of the Smart Cover is its versatility. Not only does it protect the iPad 2’s display, but it can also be folded into a stand. This allows users to prop up their iPad in various positions, making it easier to type, watch videos, or conduct FaceTime calls. The cover can be folded into a triangular shape, providing a stable base for the iPad in both landscape and portrait orientations.
Additional Features
Another innovative feature of the Smart Cover is its ability to wake up and put the iPad to sleep. When you open the cover, the iPad automatically wakes up, and when you close it, the iPad goes to sleep. This not only saves battery life but also adds a layer of convenience for users who are constantly on the go.
The Smart Cover is also designed to be easily removable. If you prefer to use your iPad without the cover, you can simply detach it without any hassle. The magnets ensure that the cover stays securely in place when attached, but it can be removed with minimal effort.
For those concerned about cleanliness, the Smart Cover is easy to clean. The polyurethane covers can be wiped down with a damp cloth, while the leather covers can be treated with leather cleaner to maintain their appearance.
