Ondrej Holzman The Smart Cover for iPad is a very popular accessory for the Apple tablet, and many customers do not hide that they would like to protect their iPhones in a similar way. However, Apple did not want to create a Smart Cover for the iPhone, so a renowned manufacturer comes up with its own solution Twelve South. His name is Surface Pad.
Twelve South is known for its high-quality accessories, and the new SurfacePad for iPhone is no exception. At least from the product photos and description, this is another precise piece of accessory that will be appreciated by those who want to protect the iPhone from the back and the front.
The SurfacePad is made of quality Nappa leather, weighs less than 25 grams and is not even 1,7 millimeters wide. The iPhone with the "dressed" SurfacePad practically does not increase in size or weight, and it is also very elegant with it.
Jak writes Twelve South on their blog, "SurfacePad makes special what it's not: a military-grade rubberized cover for your iPhone." The SurfacePad really tries to be as minimalistic as possible and offers a little something extra. Similar to the iPad's Smart Cover, the SurfacePad can be used as a stand and also has a microfiber interior that both protects and cleans the iPhone's surface and display. The cover is attached to the back of the phone with a special easily removable adhesive that leaves no traces and can be used repeatedly. Twelve South already has experience with this type of attachment from other products.
The SurfacePad is available for both iPhone 5 and iPhone 4/4S in three color options – modern white, jet black and flashy red – and costs $34,99. This translates to roughly 660 crowns. For now, we have no information whether this cover will also be available at some Czech retailers, however, Twelve South also ships to the Czech Republic for $30 (560 crowns).

Hi, I just wanted to point out that if you place an order through their e-shop and order more than one piece, you will pay 100% VAT and most likely customs duty, and the whole thing will be significantly more expensive. CR .Declares it for a couple of dollars and it goes through.I have experience with it.Jarda
Anyone else ordering ordering??? If so habik11@yahoo.co.uk
Their postage is terrible. And that's what I was thinking about getting... :/
$30 shipping?? does a brick go with that case??
Well, how does it hold up to him? :)
It is stuck with a special adhesive on the back of the iPhone.
And do they have a variant for 4S as well?
I'm also in favor of a lunch box ;-) if you guys write me an email: djlucas456@me.com
It looks nice, but I'm missing any information on how it goes on or how it even holds up on the iPhone.
We found out the information and added it to the article.
It's a shame that, like the iPad, the iPhone doesn't wake up when the case is opened. I understand that the iPhone doesn't need magnets for this, but it would be cool, don't you think? :)
SurfacePad covers will be available in Qstore stores in the near future! Follow our FB.
You can currently buy other products from TwelveSouth - next week, for example, the first pieces of the EU version of the PlugBug will arrive: www.bit.ly/11cY6Q6
I'm going too - krystofkudlacek@gmail.com . How will the payment work??
I want it, it's BOMBAAA!!!
If I knew it didn't exist on the iPhone, I would have suggested it long ago. Did no one think of this before? There are similar cases for both HTC and Samsung
You just need to type in eBay smart cover iphone 5, for example, and you'll find a bunch of them like the ones on the ipad at good prices
I think it will be cheaper to fly for it myself than to buy it from Qstor. :) Someday I will dream about the prices of this store.
I just want to ask, so will anyone do the bulk order? :-)
I'm joining too - black, 4S - stepanbednar@gmail.com
I would also take the black one on the 4S
The case is really good quality, but it has a catch - it doesn't work like a smart cover on the iPad. It does not hold the display on the surface with a magnet, but only "just like that" and only when it is opened/closed several times, otherwise the case on the display tends to come off. Otherwise, the back is glued to the prepared place (only a thin layer of glue peels off).
I personally expected more…
PS: What is first-class is the packaging itself (it will excite you :)
I would wait a while and he will be in Germany at the end of February. And then it will be fun to find it
