How this newer model is different from the old one? Are the new features worth paying +20-30$? Would iPad w/cover fit, or covers are to be removed?

Newer model has collets which make it much more convenient to adjust height and reach. Also, it extends further and is sturdier. Definitely worth slight extra cost. Agree with other responders that you will have no problem using iPad with cover.

I never had the older model. But, I can say that we love this model. The iPad fits with the cover on. You do not have to take it off. :)

I did not have the older model so I can't answer that question. I can tell you that my iPad does fit with or without the cover. There are elastic type cords that you can arrange in any manner you wish utilizing the multiple holes in the holder so you can set it up to hold practically any size item you wish.

I do not know the difference between old and new. What we have is a great product. IPad fits as well as laptops of similar sizes.

Not sure about the difference in the two models, but an Ipad with cover does fit with no problems!

Elastic holder bands can be adjusted to accommodate different sizes and thicknesses of ipads & covers.

Bought the second model for higher cost. Love it!!! The iPad can definitely be put into the frame with the cover on it.

LOL.... the processor alone make the Ipad look like cow dung. Add in no restrictions blue tooth.. yeah apple likes to live in their little fenced in area where they even control the hardware you hook up to your device. Also not 10". 7" can accually be put in a nice carry case on your belt and with the second edition model you will be able to put your sim chip in.. so unlocked can use on any 3-4g network. So I would say.. less $$$ much better hardware and open not locked. This tablet is for the grown ups who dont want to be lead down the path by big daddy apple.. but want to be able to do what they want when they want.

Too be honest, nothing is better than having "nothing on your iPad". With that in mind, with Skinomi on the iPad surface it feels different. I said "different" not "bad". I got use to it and I'm permanently scratch free!!! If you are worried about scratches like me, get it. If you want the original feel of an iPad, go without it(with many chances of getting scratches).

The Apple iPad 3rd Generation I purchased was a refurbished one. It did not come with a SIM card, user manual, or protective case. The box you are looking at is probably for a new one. Hope this helps.

Hi. The version I bought is for the iPad 2 and it fits pretty snugly. I would think that although the iPad Air (1-2) might fit in regards to most aspects but the width would be an issue as it's meant for a thicker device. If there's a new version for the iPad Air, I would definitely recommend it. I gave it tony nephew and he has definitely used and abused it and the iPad remains in working order.

Air is thinner than the older iPad. You may need a bit of padding for a firmer grip

I own the iPad 4 and have had no issues. The sleep function, as mentioned in previous reviews doesn't work, but honestly, turning it off at the top takes 1 second and it doesn't bother me.

For me it looks like the original one. Bought one, installed at my old iPad2 and have been using it with no issues at all for couple months.

I have the ipad3 and it fits perfectly. I have got then a lot of compliment on it. The color is neutral and so gorgeous on it. I'm actually contemplating getting another one

Yeah, I would like to know that as well. Guess will have to wait until the new iPad comes out.

Hey, Daryl. My opinion: redesign needed. For at least the following reasons: 1) the case makes for a really tight/snug fit (a good thing except for the fact that because apple's paint job on the black mini sux the big one, you end up with scratched edges. Not a design fault of the case), and 2) my understanding is that the new iPm is a bit thicker than the original. I have other reasons for opining that the product could stand a redesign (even if there were not a new iPm), but the ones I just gave address your question directly. So, I'll leave it at that.

What generation iPad do you have? You may not have the cover that is compatible with the version pad you have. Also, as the cover ages on occasions it tends to close away from the magnets that control the on/off. I listen for the off click. If I do not hear it I slide cover to line it up with the iPad and hear the click. This does not happen often. Also check settings as others have suggested. I have two pads generation 2 and the latest Air iPad and the cover works well on both.

I have the new iPad its a few months old and the cover is on right now as I'm typing . Amazon sold this at less then half of the price at Frys I really like it.
