KAVAJ Berlin REAL leather iPad Air 2 case
AMAZING !!!
I'm an engineer for a well known global company that makes, among other things, leather soft goods for the consumer market (not electronics). I know a good leather product when I see it, and this isn't it.
The Apple case is as good as this sort of thing gets in terms of fit and finish.
If you are into consumer goods, then you know the motto here is ' the customer is always right'
The consumer views are good.
My KAVAJ is as fine as my leather Levenger wallets and my Sena leather phone sleeve. Leather, stitching and all. It's as fine as the Apple leather case ( which I own and like, btw). Apple's choice of aniline leather is fine, but it will darken down more than leather used for hand goods and furniture. The latter leather is coated with a very, very thin layer of polymer for color retention and durability. Not to be confused with pleather which is wholly and totally synthetic.
One cannot sell a product leather in Germany unless it really is.

Again if you don't own one...

Seems like a lot of mine is better than yours. I have both the Apple case and the Berlin and use both depending on my needs.
Both are good cases, excellent leather etc. My Berlin has an issue with sleep magnets not linking up well, but slight movement solves that.
I would recommend both of them depending on your needs.
Actually for the negative protagonists it seems more of only mine is good and yours in horrible.
I have no problem with other people's choices, but downing my choice without ever owning one, is just lame.
