iGear Announces Rugged Protective Case for the iPad Air, Made for Schools
Chicago, IL (PRWEB) November 07, 2013 -- It has been reported that iPads deployed in schools suffer damage rates of up to 10%-15%, with broken screens being the most common. Although cases such as the Otterbox Defender and Griffin Survivor offer adequate protection, they’re too thick to fit in the popular Bretford charging cart used in schools. The iGear Slim Tough Case G3 and now the STC G4 eliminate this problem, offering a multi-layer construction that’s supremely shock absorbent, with a scratch-resistant lens protecting the iPad’s glass screen while keeping its thin profile allowing it to fit in the popular Bretford charging cart.
The fourth generation Slim Tough Case G4 offers multi-layer protection using a combination of (1) an outer soft rubber shell, (2) an inner polycarbonate hard case, and (3) a scratch-resistant lens covering the screen. This case is supremely shock absorbent yet allows the user full access to buttons and charging ports. The built-in kickstand is reinforced with stainless steel pivots and slides, making it virtually unbreakable. It works in both vertical and horizontal orientations, and also functions as a handle for holding the iPad with just one hand.
iGear listened to customer feedback when designing the G4 case. The G4 features extra bumpers on all four corners, dramatically increasing its shock resistance rating and drop protection. Another frequently requested feature is setting up the iPad at a low angle for typing. iGear came up with a versatile design that optimizes the stand for best usability, depending on orientation and charging cable location.
To make sure the case adequately protects the iPad in any situation, iGear put the Slim Tough Case through the “ultimate drop test.” The STC protected the iPhone from a 20-foot free fall to a paved driveway. The phone escaped without a scratch, and was recording video the whole time! Watch the drop test video here: http://youtu.be/cTZe5ziR8LU.
CBS Atlanta’s Back to School Gadgets rated iGear’s Slim Tough Case as one of the best protective iPad cases, calling it “indestructible.” With its unique ability to be customized with any artwork, this rugged iPad case is making its way around K-12 schools, colleges, and major league sports teams, combining excellent iPad protection with vivid, full color branding.
The STC G4 is customizable with supplied artwork. Using a Tough Skin decal, cases can be custom printed with schools’ full-color logo artwork, tracking ID and barcode, and lost-and-found verbiage for each iPad, making the management of multiple devices tremendously easy.
“The iPad Slim Tough Case G4 is made for kids and students,” says Jimmy Sun, president of iGearUnlimited.com. “It offers all the features schools asked for – industry-leading drop protection, built-in screen protection, and fits in the Bretford and other charging carts.”
The Slim Tough Case G4 is available from iGearUnlimited.com. Shipping is expected to start around 1/6/2014. Pre-orders are welcome and orders will be filled on a first-come-first-serve basis.
