Disclosure: I received the following items from Speck, at no cost to facilitate this review. All opinions are my own and were not influenced.
My husband and I have talked for years about purchasing an iPad and a few weeks ago we finally got one! One of the most important things to make sure to buy along with any tablet is a case to protect it from any potential damage from accidents and accidental drops. Since we loved our Speck iPhone cases so much, we decided to browse their iPad Air cases and came across two that we thought we would really like. We received the DuraFolio iPad Air case in black and the iGuy iPad Air case in grape purple to use with our iPad Air. I also saw the CandyShell case for the iPhone 5c in Splash/Poppy which matches the color of my iPhone (which I happen to love), so we also got that case for my iPhone as well.
The DuraFolio iPad Air case is a really neat case with different features that we love. This case fits the iPad Air and the iPad Air 2. Its multi-layer, slim design delivers unsurpassed impact protection without the bulk to save your iPad Air from accidental drops (it has been military grade drop protection tested). Besides the traditional way of holding your iPad Air or Air 2, this case allows you to position it in two different ways (shown below). It also features an integrated magnet for wake-up and sleep mode to your iPad Air, on open and close.
We are very happy with this case. It's really nice to set up our iPad Air in the kitchen when cooking, to look at recipes and listen to music. I like that it's basically a case and stand all in one! I feel that our iPad is fully protected with this case which is a must since we have two little ones running around in our home! It's slim, lightweight and overall a really nice case! Oh and if you like different colors, this case does also come available in gray, blue and pink.
Because of having two children who are very tech savy and like to play apps on our iPad Air, we knew that having the iGuy iPad Air case was going to come very handy.
About the iGuy iPad Case:
Meet iGuy — the free-standing foam iPad Air 2 case. Every bit as protective as he is cool, iGuy is the perfect iPad Air 2 case for kids and grownups alike. He's lightweight, easy to hold, and he can stand on his own two feet, even while holding up your iPad Air 2. He may look like he’s all about fun, but his soft, squishy body disguises tough EVA foam protection that makes it the perfect iPad Air 2 case for kids. iGuy will help you feel more secure as you hand your iPad Air 2 over to your baby or small child. When it comes to cool iPad Air 2 cases, iGuy has you covered (adapted from speckproducts.com).
This case is also military grade drop tested and thank goodness because kids do tend to drop what ever they are holding a lot. The iGuy can free stand on a flat surface, which is nice when playing movies, and he also has arms so your little one can hold him. He is soft and flexible-- his arms can move around. Putting in our iPad Air was tricky at first because it has an overall tight fit, but is great to fully protect the iPad. Both of my kids love using the iGuy, and we feel good knowing our iPad is protected in him. The iGuy also comes in the color red, and is available for the iPad mini 3 as well.
Since first receiving my iPhone 5c, I had always kept a clear case on it because I loved the color of my phone and wanted to show it off. Well if you are familiar with clear phone cases, they tend to yellow over time. When I saw Speck has an iPhone case of the same color as my iPhone 5c I was super excited! I could really show off this fun color and keep my phone protected!
This iPhone case has a patented design which provides two layers of protection in a single-piece construction. It has a hard shell, with a glossy finish giving it a great overall look! It also has a soft rubbery interior, making this case shock-absorbant. I'm so happy with my new case and love how easy it is to slide in and out and of my jean pockets. This case comes in 9 great colors!
Overall, we are very happy with all three cases from Speck and recommend them all!
