Lack of Transparency
The reviews here really scared me. I ordered two Liquid Silicone cases for the iPad Pro 11" (2021). Overall, I like the cases. The silicone material is silky to the touch and the case fits around the iPad snugly, protecting all four corners and the camera very well. The interior of the case has a soft lining to protect the back of the iPad from scratches and all buttons operate well under the cover. The Dark Cyan color is beautiful and accurately represented on the website. Unfortunately, a few things detracted from my experience. Where the Apple pencil sits, over the buttons, the charging port and all four speakers, the silicone material flexes. It needs to be that way for those areas to operate easily but I'm careful never to pick up the iPad from the pencil side of the case. I dislike the speaker holes. All four speakers are covered by small pin holes which do not line up with the large speaker holes on the iPad. Everything else was precisely cut, so I don't understand this. The case is overpriced for a back cover only. And the worst thing, order fulfillment and shipping raised some concerns, especially after reading the negative reviews here on Trustpilot. I believed this company was in Canada and I live in the United States. On September 9th. my credit card was billed a foreign transaction fee for the purchase and it listed Toronto, ON as the location. The order sat for a period of time and was not fulfilled until September 17th. after I emailed customer service, which was courteous, responsive and effective. They provided a tracking number originating from Southeast Asia. I have no problem with the origin of a product and, to be fair, the tracking system kept me well-informed. What I do have a problem with is lack of transparency. If a company is in North America but ships directly from overseas, they should disclose that. It impacts whether or not I will ever do business with them again.
