While we’ve seen numerous reports and videos about the new form factor that is allegedly on the way for the next-generation iPad, we haven’t gotten a peek at the Smart Covers that will be sold alongside the new device. Until now. A new video today from Unbox Therapy shows off the new Smart Covers that are designed for the new full-sized iPad.
The video shows the new Smart Covers in gray, black, red, pink, orange, blue, white, and green. The video also shows the new Smart Covers attached to a fifth-generation iPad assembly of the rear shell and front panel, demonstrating how they fit the new design.
As the upcoming iPad will be narrower than the previous models, the Smart Cover will be changed to a three panel design similar to the iPad mini Smart Covers, down one panel from the current design. And as usual, the Smart Cover can be used as a stand for the iPad.
Apple is expected to introduce the fifth-generation iPad, and perhaps a Retina display iPad mini, at an event sometime in October.
