Wanting a smart cover for an iPad mini 4. I know the Apple ones for the 4 were a little bigger, and overlapped due to the rear case, I don't want this ideally.

So is there any that fit, from Amazon or the like, doesn't have to be Apple, but I only want the front cover, no rear clip on case etc.

Or is the iPad mini 5 smart cover the only one which would fit properly, which I don't want as expensive.

Thanks

I don't think any company makes a smart cover w/o a back cover. I know with the other iPads that's the case. I thought the Mini 4 and 5 are the same. You can try Amazon. I waited and found one for my IPP for $20. Its white and I decided I would create my own design on the front.

idk if you are willing to have it shipped to you? These are $17-24 plus shipping. If you are familiar with any US Apple Resellers you can check to see if they have an Ebay Store.

If you are familiar with any US Apple Resellers you can check to see if they have an Ebay Store which will be a lot cheaper. That's how I found a few UK bags to ship here. Off the top of my head ... Adorama has an Ebay store.


The only company in the UK I've used are Tucano and Crumpler. They will have the folio cases and not the smart cover.
