Save Even More Space with Your iPad mini

If you’re a fan of the iPad mini, space is obviously a big selling point. With powerful features for note-taking, web browsing, videos, and creative applications, the iPad mini is perfect for traveling. The iPad mini is only 7.87” tall, 5.3 “wide, and 0.28 “ deep, so you have all these features that can easily slip into a handbag or backpack for the best mobility across the iPads. 

A proper case like ZUGU’s improves on these already highly sought-after benefits. While strong in processing, particularly the upcoming iPad minis, it’s natural to worry about its fragility. That’s why 360° protection will put your mind at ease. Better yet, with the magnetic features, you can save even more space! Attach it to any metal surface, saving room in, say, a dormitory, an overnight train, the car, or your office.

Using Your iPad With Discretion

A good cover can camouflage the iPad mini, reducing the likelihood of attracting unwanted attention while out in public. This is particularly important for individuals handling sensitive information or conducting business in outdoor spaces. The size of an iPad mini combined with the minimalist design or a leather finish can create a sophisticated look mimicking a notebook that enhances discretion without compromising style.

Our cases offer feature adjustable stands with 10 viewing angles. Our magnetic closures maintain a low profile, allowing users to engage with their iPad mini without drawing focus.
