Is the fit with a mini-Retina good enough, or should I buy the ridiculously priced Apple case?

The fit is fantastic. The case is durable, practical, looks really awesome and in my opinion there's no need to buy the Apple case.

I can't say for certain if it fits. But the new mini is the same size as the old one in all dimensions except thickness - it is 7.5 ml thick, vs. 7.2 ml for the 1st gen mini, which fits in my SwitchEasy like a glove. I bought both the SwitchEasy and the Apple cover, and returned the Apple because it was unwieldy and didn't have nearly the readability of the SwitchEasy, which I've really liked ever since I got it more than six months ago.

I love mine with the original mini. I personally think it's better than the apple case.

Don't know, don't have one. However my Mini was upgraded four months ago and the cover fit. Also about a week ago I was at the Apple store looking at the Retina display version Mini. Mine placed beside the store's display model showed no differences at all; however, the cover was still on mine so didn't get a really good comparative view. I was comparing the on-screen displays - couldn't find any difference at all even when zooming in as far as possible on both units with the same image selected.

It fits perfectly. There's an opening for the retina. The measurements are larger because the rubber is quite thick.

I use it for my 13" Pro Retina....and I like it but it is a little loose but fine. My guess is it would be a little loose on a Air...so if you don't mind the extra room it will be fine. If you want a snug fit, this is probably too big.

It will fit just fine. If you have issues of it slidding around when it's zipped up all you have to do it put it under the center safty band. I've put smaller laptops in it that have slid and they were fine. I trust this case 100% with anything. I even put my iPad and my MBPr in there at the same time.

My experience is that it fits well, and is NOT loose or prone to coming off. The one shortcoming is that it covers over the 2nd microphone on the new Retina model.

I just bought the newer 15" Macbook pro with Retina Display and it fits perfectly fine. There's even a bit of extra space where it zips.

Hey mike I have the 128gb iPad mini retina screen and it fits fine! There is no other case in the market that sells at this price point. It fits over easy without messing with your screen saver film, and the case is not to bulky like the griffin survivor case which is over kill as your iPad does not see as much outdoor action as your phone does

It is very snug - it keeps the profile of the phone slim without a lot of overhang. I don't believe this is the best case to do drop tests with, but as far as protecting the phone from scratches and minor drops, I believe it's fine. I haven't had the flap loosen, but I've only had the case for one month now. Also, invest in some good screen covers - they are cheap and worth the extra protection. My last phone was in really good shape and I got nearly $200 when I traded it in at Apple on the 5S.

I currently own a retina model macbook pro 15 inch. It fits well with room to spare. It is lightweight and well made. It provides good utility and extra room.

iPad mini with retina is the same exact specs as a regular iPad mini. It will fit perfectly.

I definitely fits my mini iPad perfectly, but I don't have the retina version. Pretty sure they are the same size however, I'd just check the specs at Apple.com to be sure.

It fits just fine. You'll notice the wrap over the edge isn't as pronounced on the Retina, but it's more good than bad.

It might be a little snug. It fits my mini with the apple cover just right. It is well made and I love the pattern - definitely worth giving it a try.

I can confirm that the case and the screen protector both fits well. the retina is only a tiny bit thicker than the original.

I don't know if it fits the retina display mini or not. I didn't think the dimensions were that different. If it's slightly thicker, it probably should fit. There MAY be about 1/8 inch of additional room for this, at the very most...

The iPad mini fits perfectly, so if the retina model is the same size then the answer is YES
