Camera access

Fold the case just so and you can take photos without unearthing the tablet from its roost.

Materials

The Concerti, which comes in three colors (beige and purple in addition to the gray pictured here), is made of microfiber with a silicone holder that hugs the iPad in place.

Not like a book

The main oddity is that the Concerti case opens from right to left, not from left to right. You may find yourself opening the case to find an upside-down tablet inside.
