Antbox Case for iPad mini 5 2019 (5th Generation 7.9 inch) / iPad mini 4 with Built-in Pencil Holder PU Leather Smart Cover with Auto Sleep/Wake Stand Function (Brown)

I really like this case for the look that the leather gives it. Has a nice feel and isn't super heavy. You can tell this is made will with durability in mind. Very functional with its folding stand pattern and slot for a tablet pen. Cant go wrong with this for the $$.

The Ant Box iPad mini cover has it all. Inner plastic flexible case holds the iPad securely The pencil holder holds Apple pencil tight; and is attached to the cover. Inside of cover has soft sueded texture, gentle to the screen. Cover folds into a stand so I can watch Netflix at a comfortable angle anywhere. Magnetic tab keeps the whole case securely closed until I flip it open. Bought the red one again so I can spot it easily. Great value for the money too. The only reason I bought this again, is that I got acrylic paint on the one I bought 4 years ago while painting outdoors. It was in great shape otherwise. I really dropped it a lot! iPad and cover stayed intact!

Purchased as a replacement case for my mini 5. Very classy looking, fits very well with nice button exposure. Nice place for pencil on left, which i don’t have yet. Much better protection than my first, lightweight case. I like the way the clasp works. I do have more problem one-handing it, than the previous case. But I’ll learn around it for the better protection. Very impressed at the first month duty.

The case is nice and sleek, professional looking. I love that I can tuck my Apple Pencil in there and not worry about it getting damaged. Only complaint I have is I can’t plug my Apple Pencil into the charging port for a quick recharge or plug my iPad into a charger because it doesn’t line up, the charger will go into the spot but it won’t click and make a connection. Definitely not looking forward to removing my case every time I need to charge my iPad or pencil. I don’t have wired earbuds so don’t know if that port works or not. Takes some getting used to that the magnet is on the underside of the case. Overall good case, if could fix the ports to line up with chargers and not have to remove case for the money this is a perfect iPad mini 5 case.

These Antbox cases are solid products. My iPad mini gets 6+ hours of use a day for work and personal lives the rest of the time in my handbag with keys, combs, glasses and other stuff. I think it is pretty lightweight for the protection offered. My first case (brown, very realistic looking) lasted for 2 years and is still usable, but I decided to change colors. I love the pencil holder, which I also use as kind of a spine when using the mini as an e-reader. The red is lovely - a bit more subdued than pictured, but definitely red. I also have this case in navy for my iPad 10.2”

This case just arrived today for my iPad mini 5The red is a true red. Beautiful.It fits my iPad mini 5 and Apple Pencil 1 perfectly.I actually like that the magnetic closure wraps to the back body. I think it’ll help keep the front closed /locked and also lock down magnetically even with a glass screen protector installed (like I have on mine)It’s firm but lightweight for a full cover.Mine came with a screen cleaning cloth included which is a nice add in.I think the price point is fair at about 25 dollars for what you receive. It seems well crafted and has soft fabric inside to protect the iPadAndThe hard shall back has give so it shouldn’t be prone to crack and also makes it super easy to remove and insert the iPad and pencil as needed.Another smart touch is the small round hole where you can place your Apple Pencil to stand up or store that teensy magnetic cap so you’re less likely to lose it.I’m rating 5 stars for durability now since it does appear well crafted and I anticipate it will hold up well. (I’ll revamp the review should this change)Outstanding fit form and function.I’m very happy and so is my iPad. 😁

I got this case as I like one that holds the pencil inside the case, rather than a loop. His one works very well for that. Also,the case is of good quality material and is nice to hold.

It seems like a nice cover, except it's essentially incompatible with Apple's "Smart Cover" function, because with the loose flap flopping, it constantly goes to sleep when you don't want it to. I had to shut off the function in setup- it was unusable with the feature enabled.
