I like the soft casing though had to take black because brown back ordered. They did email me and ask to switchÛ_good service. It will be a keeper although someday I would like to see a way to hold the angle, using a stopper. Haven'tÛªt found a good one like that yet. This is my fav so far.

What Is the Protection Rating of the MacCase Leather 13 iPad Air Case?
