New iPad too heavy for Smart Cover?
DaleRDS
25-03-2012
Had the new iPad for just over a week now - very happy with it, should have got an iPad 2 ages ago, anyway I bought a smart cover for it yesterday, and either i'm doing it wrong or it is too heavy for the magnets to support it in semi-upright position.

Anyone else found this?

I saw comments elsewhere saying the magnets don't work as well on the ipad3. Is it coming off the cover or just the whole thing tipping?

Attatchment to the iPad is fine, it's just tipping when you leave it to stand semi-upright as that position seems to rely on a magnetic connection between the first and last "flaps" and that doesn't seem to be strong enough...

Although having just said that i'm now using it in the slightly raised position (using the wonderful iPad + Apple TV combo) and the actual attachment magnets will slip off with only a little too much pressure on the touch screen.
