I get a lot of compliments on my Tri Axis iPad2 case. It is very attractive and very functional in the way that it can be used in a horizontal or vertical format. The smart feature works well. One thing I have noticed is that if I close my case with the iPad2 rotated into the "upside down" mode. it does not put the iPad to sleep. The only other thing I have noticed is when the iPad 2 is in a horizontal position seated in the second or third groove, it is not quite as stable as one would like. Certainly functional, but I notice a different from the 1st groove to the 2nd or 3rd. Luckily, I like it to use it in the 1st groove since it is more vertical. It is like the grooves need to be deeper to keep the iPad stable enough. That being said, I have enjoyed it tremendously and I am glad I purchased it.
